bf2 slow initial performance

Anti

Hey,

Just got bf2 and spec ops bundle. And am having a few issues with it. The game loads grand, but when the map starts the first 30 seconds to 1 mins go at 1 fps. I have not patched yet thought i doubt it will make a huge difference. Does anyone know the reason for this? The pc its being run on is in my sig.

Chairs!

Your pc is **** and has to go, go buy a proper one


Thats normal i used to just hide for a minute till it settled down, its PB updating there is a way to stop it but after a few more games it goes away.

You will have to do a manual install and update of Punkbuster.

in your sig says you only have 1 gig, you defiantly need 2 for BF2. I used to have the same problem and when I added an extra gig no more problems at the start of the game. But I find BF2 unplayable in Vista and thats with a 8800gts 640mb.

*edit* Oh just remembered I used to lower all settings to medium and it alleviated the problems while I was waiting for my extra gig.

Hwey Auvers.

Thanks for th input. Im upgrading to 2gb on sunday, so i hope it will increase performance some what. Ill gt back to you guys.

and thanks to the other two lands that gav their input.

Hey, Silverfish brough round the new patch for me, as i have no connection at home yet And i added another gb of ram. The game now loads in seconds. Icant believe how another gig of ram has made such a high performance increase.

2GB is not necessary for BF2, I managed to play comfortably on 512MB. Though you probably won't see snipers lol

View distance would be minimal ughh how did you manage

That was not Anti, that was someone else.

You got tea... well, tea making facilities...and processors > cake.

Back on the topic of Anti and his issues, now resolved by more ram and patches and punkbuster manual updates.
