I've gotten two black screens while playing this.. black screen for few seconds then nothing from monitor... GPU issue? Only game it's happening to so far - also only intensive graphical game I've been playing in a while. Rather annoying, anyone else having similar issues or is it just me? :\

i load faster than most of my friends/squadmates, but its clear some people are way ahead - and it was mentioned in some 'upcoming' patch notes a week or two back that ATI players loaded slower, and it would be fixed.

I see, its weird how a video card brand can cause loading issues, but thats software related of course

only thing that comes to mind for me, is that DX11/10.1 loads slower than 9.0/10.0, and they're optimising that in the patch.

Totally depends on whether you have been playing with team mates (people you play regularly with on vent/ts) or that was completely acquired through online lone wolf skillz.

Any 5770 users, can you run high? I'll be downgrading to the red side next week (wanted something cooler for the summer). Crossfire could be fun first time ever too and then I'd be back to same wattage as now

depends how optimised DX11 is - Even with these overclocked 4870s i still get the occasional slow down but usually right at the end when it plays the FMV sequence & the jets roar in & blows some shit up -then my 4870s are like wtfbbq-q-q-q-q-q

I think I have narrowed down the problem to in game MSAA.
In a game AF is also 100% broken so to get full x16 full scene AF you have to force it via CCC, and that has 0% performance loss - which is a bit odd but thats how it is.

So that would be on DX10? Now I keep details medium and else on high and no slowdowns. Jets are no problem, but large maps like panama went laggy with high details. So maybe it's a bit much to expect weaker card to do better

Eew, don't say something like that when I'm thinking crossfire Don't really want artifacts as I've had none so far in the game. Maybe R9 helps that should be out next week.

On another note, finally got the stationary weapon pin and with it new insignia.

With AI disabled. No lines but little square blocks (only in certain situations) and crappy bad, low FPS performance.


With AI enabled. Blocks and gray lines (almost all of the time) but excellent (100+fps) performance.
Rarely, if ever, drops below 60 fps.



Single card is no problems.

So far this is the ONLY game I've experienced any Xfire issues. But, ironically enough, this is one of the few games that Xfire actually benefits my system
