call of duty 2 laggy

[mrwolves]

i tryed the new cod 2 demo and found laggy, i wondered if the game has more options to improve performance.

athlon xp 1.9
512 ddr ram
ati 9700 pro
20 gb hardrive

I dont think the dx9 isnt optimized for mid end cards and lower, like my 6800 plays through 20-30fps >_>. So much bs, either Infinity Ward or activision better fix it or ima go wherever the director fornicateing lives and kick him in the crotch. Though i dont know about your 9700 pro, since the game is kinda next gen =/ But put the game to dx7 if you want.

I have a 6800 also , and theres the exact framerate , probably same settings .. I tried to balance them out . Installed the nvidia 81.87 driver , without it the game would probably run slower . I can honestly say this is one of the best ww2 shooters i ever played ... If i had a clue about how it looks on a higher system , i would probably say it was the best . Gameplay and atmosphere are excellent . The "unlimited health" is brilliant , i wonder why no one attempted to try this before , it makes the gameplay more fluent , you only die if you are reckless , just like in real war .

Im not a call of duty fan . I just like goond games.

unlimited health just makes the game easy not funner and CoD2 is not next gen it just must be optimized for radeons it wouldn't surpprise me

guess it only matters on certain systems, my bro has a similar system but has a 3.2 and 280gb and runs like crap like mine.Seems that this is a problem of IW or Activisions and not nvidias or ati. Maybe the game is still prefered on a radeon since the game is ported from the x360 system and the x360 has a ati chip.

It's a demanding game. Even my 7800GTX has a difficult time running it at 1920x1200
