awesome map...lots of detail...especially like the airfields...take off from a revetment, any direction, very cool. but, it's a framerate killer...especially 5,000 feet and below.
i had to turn off detailed terrain to level my framerates out...no idea what it's going to do in big furball.

oh, and i dont know if anyone else had it happen but...map download went good...got into the arena and just before getting to the tower...crashed. once i restarted there were no other issues other than the frame rates.

Didn't have the crash issue. Agree it's a beautiful map. I also had a lot of FR stutters when going low into furball areas.

I dont have the beefiest of a rig but I experienced quite low FPS too. A good 20-25 less than usual. I achieved 2-3 FPS better by turning detailed water and terrain ON.  :rolleyes:

Test went well from what I can tell. No major issues unless someone has not reported them yet.

I had some frame issues only once, but it corrected itself after a few moments.

Could be prior to the May FSO squadies should be warned that if the have a older rig to turn down the eye candy just in case they have a frame rate issue. We had about 50 on last night and maybe 20 in a furball or two, but FSO could have 3 times that.

The Leningrad area will be the worst for FR issues but the target areas are spread out a lot more than that. Leningrad might be just one objective per frame out of 8. I will try to keep the action spread out.
