I discovered this coincidentally, and have no clue where to start. I'm not even sure whether it's a hardware or a software issue.
It's about the White Bengal system in my system specs.
The computer performs well, I can play Skyrim, New Vegas, Crysis 3 etc... with no issues whatsoever.
But if I try Farmville 2 (don't ask why but yes I play farmville occasionally because I find it relaxing
) it's like I'm on a 10 year old celeron with an MX440.
The game takes nearly a minute to load. Occasionally it gets stuck in the loading screen. Then when it loads, occasionally it loops and re-loads...
When it finally loads, I always get like half of the scenery missing. The fences are always missing. Buildings are missing at random, sometimes one item is invisible, the next time a couple of other items would be. I click on buttons, for example to visit other farms, and no matter how much I click the button doesn't work and I stay put in my own farm. And more often than not my avatar (the little guy running the farm) is invisible and I can only see its shadow. I click on items and they remain in the queue and I have to reload and start over. Frequently the game just appears to freeze, though I never get the message that "Shockwave has stopped working" and it allows me to reload.
This has been going on for around a month now, basically the game's unplayable now.
I thought it was something with my account or with my wifi connection but yesterday I had my brother's pc over to install a 7850, and I tried farmville 2, using my own facebook account and my wifi connection, and the game loaded in 5 seconds flat and was perfect and snappy with no missing objects and all items in the action queue were always performed.
So this excludes wifi/ISP/networking problems and also issues with my facebook and zynga online account. I've also got the latest flash player. Malware is not an issue either, I scanned with MSE and malwarebytes.
Which leaves only hardware and software issues.
And that nagging feeling that something's wrong... and I don't know what it is. And that something might also be affecting my other games and I'm not noticing... Which is frustrating. (But let's try not to go OCD now
)
I'm on the verge of doing a fresh Win 7 install, but decided to see what advice I could get over here first.
