Yes it's pretty terrifying. Reminds me of the good ol days... It actually can run it decently on 1280x1024 but I started getting some choppy movement and rubberbanding.

Is it just coincidence, or is rubberbanding actually able to be caused by hardware issues? I've always thought it could only be caused by network/connection problems. It seems when I was testing on the empty server I had the smoothest overall performance at absolute ground zero settings. As I steadily progressed I started to experience just a couple occasions of rubberbanding...
