Killing level 80's with a lvl 60 is a lot more fun than killing level 90's with a level 100.

    this game uses part of the unreal game engine the problem is any version of it developed after 2003 seems to have the same issue that was largely ignored by the game developers.
    the problem causes alot of intermittent Game lag.
    this lag gets worse when you have alot of content in your game.
    heres a link to my friends post:

    incase your wondering this is part of the reason it lags so bad in arch! its not only your ping to blame.

    the problem also can result in wrong files being used!b:surrender

    i wish, that engine's mostly debugged by now. this game uses a proprietary engine that was developed in a bug farm by the looks of it.

    I highly doubt it is a graphics card issue myself. My laptop uses an ATI Radeon HD 4200 and my Desktop uses an ATI Radeon HD 4750 (1 GB, PCI Express x16) and still gets this issue at those areas. AFAIK those spots are missing the texture files for everyone when viewed at max details (not an issue when turning details down though). I just shrug and move along. Had the same issue with an Nvidia 8400 GS 512 MB PCI card on the same desktop, and another fac mate of mine that runs the game on full details with her PC reports the same graphical errors there.

    Thats actually 100% true... they screwed up and took out several of the dds files in trees and grasses.pck, if you happen to have an older version you could add them back to see them again but theyd probably ban you for "modifying game files" when all you are doing is fixing something the devs are to lazy to do...

    GeForce 8800GT with newest drivers and I've been seeing that for a long time. There's some down by the GraveRobber that are like that as well. A long time ago I submitted a ticket on it, got a "we'll look into it" response and never heard anything again. It's just one of the many bugs that they will likely never fix. I just ignore it.

    It is a known issue with both ATI and nVidia chipsets. they show up as black on one type, and white on the other.

    Turn down the flowers setting to get them to disappear.

    This is a known issue that was reported to the developers awhile back.
    Do you need help learning about patching the game, installing it, changing antivirus/firewall settings, changing network settings, learn how to use a computer, keeping your PC maintained and more?
