Strangest thing is I get lag even with 60 fps, the titans should just stop moving when teh shields are down (engine failure so the emergency brakes kicked in or whatever )

That and othe business practices of EA are why I fully support boycotting all of their products from here on out.

Remember, EA only make money off the sale of the game (well they get some with ads now, but not much). Thus, they want the best looking game they can make - if they have a Titan which works perfectly but only looks half as good, nobody will notice until they buy the game.

I am confident that FS itself will be better than 2142 vanilla in every way, including performance.

Well, the 2142 Titans are....not designed well The interiors are made up of 80,000 polygons...which is about 8 times the amount the carrier in BF2 was. This causes video lag on even mid range systems. This means that the collision meshes must be more detailed which adds to the network lag. Not to mention it uses a crap load of textures, something like 16 or so.

We'll be taking steps to reduce/eradicate this wherever we can. Rest assured.

What are you gonna do about latg in your mode like titan mode? Moving the titan creates lots of lag try to fix this or lower capitol ship size if movable.
