What's your video card memory? I'm running an ATI Radeon 9000 with 64M and getting relatively low fps, and can't really get anything above "medium high"...

WTF... this totally pisses me off... since Tuesday I've gone to THREE Best Buy's, two CompUSA's, two Circuit City's, two Fred Meyers, and four GameStops to find the game... NOTHING! Not even an empty spot indicating they were sold out!

It's like, come on man, they built the freakin' game 30 miles from where I live, why can't we get it at the same time?

Gggrrrr!!!!

have you read nothing? a few stores accdently put it on the shelves before they were supposed to, they all (as far as i know) have pulled them back off the shelves so you need to wait untill the 17th.

I live in Seattle, and I have yet to check a Best Buy around here, I live roughly 5 miles from where the game was made, so i might go tomorrow and find one somewhere.

High Flight Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air. Up, up the long delirious, burning blue, I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace Where never lark, or even eagle flew - And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod The high untresspassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand and touched the face of God.&&

You must have something wrong with your setup somewhere. With my spec

AMD64 3500+
1gig Corsair @ 10,2,2,2
Nvidia 6800 Ultra, only 256ram
80gig 7200rpm Sata hdd

I was holding an FPS of between 15-25 (locked @25) in the demo. I had my sliders set to achieve the best looking environment but did turn down all of the AI (bar boats) and I think autogen was only on dense and water on high 2. What have you got your sliders set at?

Are you sure you dont have loads or proccesses running in the background hogging resources?

AMD64 3500+ @ 2200MHz 400FSB&&MSI K8N Neo 2 mobo nForce3 chipset&&1gig Corsair XMS PC3200 timings @ 10.2.2.2 &&XFX 6800 Ultra @ 450/1200&&80gig HDD&&Loadsa fans!!!

Check your bios settings. Make sure than any on board processes that are duplicated by video/sound cards motherboard etc etc etc and Windows are disabled. Your FS9 was presumably running at a little more than 4fps?

Don't moan guys I've got a PIII 1GHz so my machine probably won't get above 1 frame per hour! And it'll be a good 6 months before it appears in Central Europe. Ahh well at least I'll have a shiny new PC when it gets here Grin
