But I still think it's rubbish that an up to date 2.8Ghz CPU is maxing out a core no matter what. This is the only game I have ever come across that runs so terrible and runs maxed out CPU utilization. Usually when your CPU is 100% is insufficient CPU requirements. I noticed that my FPS is low no matter what settings I use highest or lowest settings don't increase my frame rate.
Oh and by the way, when I tried applying 1.21 patch it now asks me for an elicense cd key. My paradox version never came with a cd key and was never required to run the game, just the disc had to be in the drive. Does this mean I have to re buy this game to get latest patch's from now on???
