  1. Same here , random crashs to desktop now and then . Gefore 6600GT Core2 E63000 Gigabyte 965P DS3 MB 1 Gig 667mhz Ram
  2. Im with Miguel from Portugal As with Combat Mission when it arrived it had a few bugs etc , these where delt with . Some peole cryed some could nt load it etc . After playing the demo I think TOW will be a huge winner and stand the test of time . Its not going to be for everyone but there s a huge ammount of people that are going to love this game . Thumbs up to the DEVS , well done i hope you s all reap the finacial rewards of your hard work .
  3. Demo runs fantastic everything on full . Realy enjoying this .Im a old timer that has supported battlefront since Combat mission came out . Will purchase TOW for sure thanx for all the effort Devs . 128meg 6600GT 1 Gig DDR2 Ram Core2 E6300
  4. Its fairly clear your befuddled by the mysterious issues coming from multi threaded games and duel core cpu s .
  5. Plz rattle of your list of multithreaded / duel core games . Games like WoW multithreaded yeah it calls the graphics libraries, which are multithreaded ? The latter is a horse of a different color. Many future games many not take full advantage of duel CPU cores this comes back to reward vs. effort. For a games developer like battlefront to put in a lot of time and effort multithreading a game without really expanding the market for that game makes as much commercial sense as commissioning a Swahili translation of a game. Its a chicken and egg problem though. GPUs are so important because rendering takes up such an important part of modern games. If things like physics and AI became more important ( i.e., required more processing power ) then perhaps games would be more cpu limited . But most single core cpu s can easly kill very complex AI etc . But i guess we can t very well have the AI taking all the computer resources , there s other things that have to be done drawing etc . Its hard to find out if you don t have the new hardware what can be done with AI etc . So it is very exiting that we are seeing duel core and prob quad core in the near future . much longer winded than I originally intended but hopefully someone will find it useful/interesting.
  6. These are the only multithread games out that i could find , I knew there was onle a few . Quake 4 (and Quake 3) Call Of Duty 2 ( i think this was a patch ) The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion The biggest target audience for duel core processors has been gamers, but you will in real trems hardly see much performance advantage over single core processors . Its all marketing hype Games simply don’t need duel core and can gain just marginal performance out of them. The chip companies are hailing duel core to be the natural evolution of chip design. And they have to, they want to sell these things, and they sure aren't gonna say multi core, it's a little bit better, sometimes . As the public, we just have to try and stay educated about whats going on, and look past all the marketing speak . The point is many games with high level graphics, particular complex shader-heavy effects, don't need more CPU processing power, they need more GPU processing power. It's the GPU which handles the rendering tasks, and unless these could somehow be transferred to the CPU (which they can't really as games are not designed for this, and neither are CPUs), then the gains may well be marginal. I guess im saying get a good Graphics card over a duel core cpu
  7. most games are NOT aware of multiple processors. Quake 3 is the only game that truly utilizes multiple processors for rendering scenes . Some newer games use the second processor for sound rendering . Graphic card and RAM should be your number 1 buy , as most modern cpu s single or duo core will easly play modern games .
  8. With the Vid and cpu power we have today there should realy be no prob adding more cover ? I know everyone has nt got the uber system , but even most mid range systems have huge ammounts of power . I would nt expect huge ammounts of cover , but there must be useable cover for infantry
  9. ive tryed .tournamenthouse. but there chat etc always seem to be down . anyone know of a good place to find some games . Thanx
