It'll be helpful to us if you tell us some of your computer's information.

1) What is the make and model number of your computer?

2) Please also tell us whether you are running a 32bit or 64bit version of Windows. You can find out in Windows by going here: Start > Control Panel > System & Maintenance > System. Then look under System > System Type. It will then display 32bit Operating System or 64bit Operating System. Include that info with the info we ask for below.

3) To create a dxdiag log, go to Start, click on Run, then type in dxdiag and press Enter. Click on Save All Information as a text file (on your Desktop as an example.
If you are using Vista or 7, go to the Start Menu, click on the Search menu and type dxdiag.exe.

4) Copy and paste the top half of your dxdiag into your forum post (that means 50% of the text). If you have Vista, please take out the (TM) (the trademark symbol) out of the text file, as the forums will cut it off and won't display the rest of the text.

If you have a 64bit system, please click on the 64bit Dxdiag/DirectX button to save the correct log file. This is important so that we can help you find the right software for your system.

We'll take a look at it, and offer our advice (or our super cool and helpful community might beat us to answering things for you).

do you have that kind of framerate everywhere in the game?

Unless you have a top end machine, you're gonna get below 10 frames per second when in highly populated areas or if you are trying to use too high of game detail. when in arch, always hide other players (makes a huuuuge difference in frame rate). if experiencing this issue in other areas of the game, turn down the game detail and "distance" / play with the setting until you get to about 30 Frames Per Second outside of arch, or whatever seems comfortable to you.

(My desktop pushes full details, max distance, etc at around 50-60 fps outside of arch and still craps out to around 10 frames per second at the head hunter if i dont turn all the extra stuff off).

well it is random, not only in arch( but it is true more often in arch), it's just a random 10-20 sec decrease in FPS then everything is back to normal. However, it does help if I don't have that much program running.
