Im really enjoying JA BIA , its been a while since a game has got my this hooked ! so thanks for a great game!

The only really annoying thing is when I get to a big city with loads of civilians running around he game play slows down to unplayable!!! its smooth a silk everywhere else. I've tried knocking my resolution and settings right down but it still so slow!

I have a pretty good spec pc.

4 gigs of ram
AMD TURION X2 dual core 2.20Ghz
ATI Radeon 3850 Graphics Card?

Any ideas? is my computer that crap? it plays most other games on hi res perfectly!

cheers

The game doesn't really profit much from multiple cores (4+), but probably your clock speed is the limiter. Also ATI Radion 3850 is from 2007 or something. Could you give some examples of "other games that run on hi res perfectly" ?

If its something like CIV V, GTA IV or ARMA 2 then your PC most probably is not the issue.

Other games i'm playing at the moment are:

Warhammer 40000: Dawn of War 2
Laracroft and the guardian of light.
Starcraft 2

Man this sucks my frame rate drops from 40-50 in other areas and when I hit cities its like 2-3!!! man cr@ppy coding!

It seems to only happen when there lots of civilians when I go to the docks/barracks with loads of enemies its fine ?!?!

Yes, it's a problem with the engine.  I have a PC that is WELL above specs (OC core i7, OC GTX 580, etc) and I have the same problem.  It's not a constant FPS drop, just miniature ones that happen when I scroll or sometimes when I first make enemy contact.

[Echo76]

Well prolly everyone has a fps drop in populated areas and while I consider the code not so good optimized, IMHO it's time to start considering to upgrade your hardware, that sounds quite outdated.

It is not just the hardware, I have a phenom x2 quad core, Radeon 8750 and 8 gigs of ram and the city is killing me. I am doing the kingpin area right now and have to turn the graphics and view distance way down or it goes choppy as all get out and unresponsive (have to hit space or click on mercs multiple times.


Very frustrating.

[MacPharlan]

Woops, bad specs, that is what I get when I try and 'recall' what I have. This is more accurate.


Phenom II x4 955
Windows 7 64
8 GB Ram
Radeon 6870

I too have that problem when I hit Cambria,it slows down and gets jittery but its doable on my end. What gets me is the crashing every 5 mins in combat, as I posted before. As for computer I am runing the following


Win 7 64
4 giggy rammy
evaga 295gtx
6600 dual core amd black
raptor drives in raid zero

I can run skyrim on high (not ultra) and Battle field 3 on meduim to high options and same with EVE med - high, ultra if no one else is around. At the moiment those are the most gfx hungray games I have.
don't know why JAbia is having issues with it.
