I can run up a whole mile of stairs with only 3 breaks that last 10 seconds and then run all the way down till I get to my house which is an extra half mile all clocking in at around 40 minutes.
To be honest, the 1887 seemed overpowered on its own without akimbo. It's range and damage is ridiculous. Level 70 right now, and I've encountered pretty much everything. I have no idea how people haven't started complaining about RPG's. I always get triple/multi kills combined with danger close.
My temp fix is lowering the pre-rendered frames to 0. When I do that, most of the stuttering is gone, but 30% of my framerate drops. Meaning, I have to stick to 1024x600 and 2x anti-alising. In other words, same as console versions. :D
" I have a GeForce 8800 GTS and an Intel Core2Duo @1.8 Ghz, 4 GB Ram (though due to the system it's caped), XP. I run the game at 1680x1050, Automatic textures, 2x AA, rest on Highest. Game is smooth all the time, except in 3 places where I get a heavy, 5 FPS-like slideshow: - Infiltrating the Oil Rig, when the other submarine comes into view. - After the EMP, running through the city, until you find the dead soldier. - Later in the same mission, when exiting the offices through a hole in the wall. "
SAME! You probably also had that when running from the APC in Contingency, right? So maybe it really is CPU related, what with you only having 1.8 Ghz. Are you sure you don't get any jumps in frames, or anything? Half second pauses? I get them so often it's distracting.
Anyway, I ran a Fraps benchmark. Here's what it says: Frames: 8355 Time (ms) : 105608 Min: 41 Max: 163 Avg: 79.113
1280x720, 2xAA, everything else on. Of course, the benchmark doesn't take into account all the countless stutters and annoying pauses... >_>
@Khann: It's not a regular 9800 GT, it's the Silent Cell Passive Cooling one. I've checked temperatures, idle is 40-50 C, while full load is 70-75. I bought it like a few days ago, so it's not dirty.
