Hello.
Well, ever since I installed the game I've been getting weird lags (even in other games, when I think about it).
Both in single- and in multiplayer (hell, sometimes even in the menu), the game runs perfectly smooth for 5 seconds, and then lags quite alot for 7 seconds. Smooth for 5 seconds, lags for 7 seconds, and so it continues.
Now, my first thought was that it was something CD-related. But I made a virtual copy and ran it with a virtual drive, and the game still lags.
I then thought it was connection related. So I started testing playing with various graphics and sound settings. The game still runs smooth for the 5 seconds; but depending on the settings, the game lags harder/less hard when it actually lags.
So, I'm now torn between thinking it's a connection problem, and a hardware problem. Had it been a connection problem though, wouldn't it be lagging constantly, and not lagging in singleplayer?
I have a 0,5 down/0,07 up connection,
on this comp:
Pentium 4, 3 GHz
1 GB RAM
Radeon 9600 256 MB, with some 6,whatever drivers
I really do hope someone can help me identify the problem (and fix it?), this is driving me insane.
Thanks!
