It seems to me that the eye candy thing has run it's full course,and we are back to about where we started.The graphics look about the same to me,and that is after they had to do a lot of fixes to get it where the lower end puter owners could hang in there.With the nice looking water,terrain,etc. came the stutters,but not all seemed to be adversely affected.Strangely enough,my puter seems to run the game the same no matter what,and it's no killer rig...AMD 6000,4 gigs ram,Nvidia 8800GT,not clocked.I get some freezes..stutters,but not enough to be concerned about.I've ran the game at 512 and 1024 and I don't see any difference.Heck I didn't mind Air Warrior graphics.I'm just glad to see that this last patch seems to help a lot of folks.
