World In Conflict.....WOW!!!

im having some problem playing this game. i have a q6600 at 3.4ghz and 8800gts 320mb. The game (first level) is pretty much unplayable at 1680x1050 with graphic settings set to high... and by unplayable, i mean slideshows, maybe about 3-5 fps?... Now i know 8800gts 320 is not good with high resolutions, but common, 3-5fps?...

Same here. Although my machine is slower than yours. On my 8800GTS 320MB it simply cannot handle DX10 or any level of AA at 1280 x 1024. Deselecting DX10 will give you an immediate performance boost, but the game looks rubbish on anything less than high. I returned the game to the store as I'm not prepared to fork out money on a game that plays like a slideshow on a 8800

Yeah, that's definitely from before the DX10 stuff went active. Whole new ballgame now.

http://picasaweb.google.com/karmazin/WorldInConflict <--all taken at 1680x1050 or 1900x1200, but picasa resized them a bit....close enough.

That wasn't before it went active.. it has been in for months. It's just that the perf gains to bring DX10 up to DX9 levels was only done towards the very end, after some of the public demo reviews (like the one linked previously) were already out.
 
GOTY indeed :)


I am running it at 1920x1200 4xAA 16xAF Everything on high in DX9 on my x1900xtx and it's so purty. Only had one slow down and that is when I dropped 3 Heavy Carpet Bombings at the same time :eek::eek::eek:


Can't wait to get my 8800GTX (monday) and see if DX10 looks any better.

but the thing is i didn't even run the game in dx10.. it was dx9 and unplayable... something must be wrong... anyways, the game doesn't look too interesting anyways. Sure the explosion effects are cool, but overall i say COH has better graphics

and ya, i just tried the game again with very high settings at 1024x768, 10fps in the first mission. somethings wrong lol

i'd like to see some picture evidence or i'm afraid i'll have to say "that didn't happen".


edit: but maybe my 'similar setup' is somehow on the fritz? which it isn't. or is it? no, it isn't. but it might be? no.
 
What's with the screens of WTC? Actually in the game? Someone can't be happy about that.

graphics look pretty fantastic to me. of course that's just my opinion, but the level of detail on every object in the game looks pretty phenominal from my vantage point.
 
I have to run it on low detail settings on my laptop.

8600gs 256mb, c2d 7300, 2gb ram
 
Rise of nations rocked. Terrible graphics, but some of the best strategic gameplay around.

I've only played the WIC demo (the 1.2GB download, and only one scenario, lol) but it feels like a better done version of Command and Conquer Generals. The ability to garrison your troops in buildings was a dead giveaway.

The airstrikes and support is fun, but the interface is a little clunky, I mean having to select airstrikes from the left and the troops deployments on the right is kind of annoying, especially on a widescreen.

Camera control can be hard at the start. If they had a "snap to 45 degree" I think some peeps might appreciate it.
 
I personally dont mind the WTC in game. It reminds me of what used to be. I dont think people will get upset about this.
 
I thought these guys knew what they are doing. I gave up on this game after a couple of tutotrials. This had to be one of the worst key/mouse setup for moving around or moving your camera around. Don't they know people aren't using small monitors like a 17inches? Imagine playing this with a 30" or 37" lcd. Have fun try moving the mouse pointer all the way up or down or side to side.

Wow, never really thought of that. My 21 inch works perfect.. I wouldnt want to try a 30inch though.
 
The WTC is in the game because it is set in 1989. I think people would be pissed if it wasn't in.

Yeah it can be but I found I got used to using the keyboard really quickly for those actions, need to get another monitor so I can do the support stuff on the map though, that will speed me up no end, bombing runs can be a pain.
