Hey guys,
I finally got the chance to download AA today, and it looks awsome. I couldn’t wait to get started, so I made my video settings how I always have them, and in the game, it was extremely laggy. So I put the setting on 640x800(?) and detail on Really Low, and it still lagged!? This reminds me of Halo PC…
Anyone have this problem?

I had the same choppyness problem, but it was only when playing online games. Which is what you’re supposed to do with this game!
So, heck with it after having trained and played stupid missions for hours long, i uninstalled that shi-tov-ah-game.
Bleh!

Yeah,
well I don’t understand why it’d be doing this, but I’ll keep trying, thanks for your support.

Well I only have 28kb connection and I can play it with no lag…
When you search for servers you list them by ping… and play only on the low pings (duh)
If you have a ping of 400, while you may not notice lag, you will lose in a fire fight and sniping is basicly a waste of time. (300- ok…) (200-… good) 100-… I will head shot you with the M16 all day long…
But even with my 28kb connection I can get a ok ping on some US servers as long as their isn’t to many players. (so I am stuck on honor less AU servers)
And I just changed my
MX 440 64mb
to
FX 5200 128mb
☹ I had hoped it would look better… But nope…

Oh \*\*\*\*,
well I guess the ping might have been high in that server, but thanks for your help.

It probably was. I usually just join official servers.

Driver update maybe 😛 shut down some windows apications before starting the game.
