Ok so I'm noticing something wierd going on. Every time I open up my weapons stock screen(tab, then weapons) I drop to like 8 fps.

Also when an enemy drops a weapon/mod my fps go waaaaay down(like 10 or so). WTF?

That is indeed odd. I haven't noticed anything of the sort. Post up at the support forums and see if anybody has an answer, and let us know on this end :)

Yeah I'm not sure what it is. It does it with all resolutions, all enhancements, and it gets really choppy when theres a round of enemies that end up dropping stuff.

It doesn't seem to work for me like I said 1 out of 10 and I've even tried it @ different distances.

Not like I play brick at all though so it’s pretty much irrelevant. Merely just something I noticed while grinding him out to 50. He is the worst to play out of the 4 chars.

Well troubleshooted the problem, turns out it's an SLI thing. Probably gonna have to wait for better drivers to be released for it to work better. :(


Good news is a single 275 can max out 1920x1200 w/4xAA and High settings :D :D :D

Weird that it's an SLI thing. Maybe it's only with Tri-SLI, because my two 285s didn't do anything like that.

The drivers alone are the problem with this game + SLI. The EVGA SLI Profile update fixes it, but I had to drop down to 2x 275's and I think thats where the problem lied. Going from 3-2 cards, but here's what I did to fix it:
Disabled SLI
Uninstalled the Evga SLI enhancement update
Restarted
RE-Installed the Evga SLI update
Opened Nvidia CP and enabled SLI
Restarted game with no slow downs. :)

I have installed the patch on 2 different computers, one with an 5850 ATI and one with a 9600GT, both now have problems with the on screen display in game.

Anything indoors is just a grey or black square, no texture, shadows etc. and outdoors anything like a garage door or tent flap are just grey or back shapes as well.

How do I correct this? I have found some references to resetting a graphics setting but haven't been able to work out what was meant.

Help would be appreciated.

Tye

OK, I found a fix for my ATI card. Disabling catalyst AI in ccc did the trick. Still no fix for nvidia cards that i could find.

Way to burn yourself out! lol Looks like you got your moneys worth out of it, it is a great game, but I don't think I could sit down and play it that much.

lol yeah I am definitely burnt out and i totally got my $$ worth even though I am kind of glad I will have room to breathe till the DLC comes out. I am shocked I actually grinded out Brick because I absolutely hate him esp. after playing and PvPing with the other 3 :roll::roll::roll:

Brick and Roland were the least rewarding to me. But Roland is hands down better than Brick.

Roland is a team player, if your going solo or PvPing with him I could see it being boring. But with a full team, I find sprinting from teamate to teamate healing them and rezzing them is a lot of fun.

Yeah I just got done with the "Dumpster Diving" mission to recover some guys porn stash. "Some pages are stuck together" Eww!

Also just found my first Enderian weapon. A 800pt sniper rifle. I need a better CR since I'm modded to run 36% CR Damage.

I dont know how this game generates weapons, but it sucks! I want/need a better CR and keep finding crap.

Best gun I've found so far is a pistol that has 7x95 damage. :D Handy little bugger, but only holds 2 shots. Two critical shots and it can deliver a Second Wind like no other.

since you're 31 you're going to run into better guns when you hit your later 40's i only had 1 maybe 2 orange guns on my first run through. but by the second run through i had about 6 by the end of the game. you'll have to farm and keep playing after your second play through to run across more oranges randomly/vending machines. my list is pretty long now since i farmed about 2 hours every day. lots of copies of the same guns. only one of certain other ones. just takes tiem and grinding stuff out.
