Hello,
I can confirm this. Updates are juste eating more and more cpu.
Even on DoD:S ... For my servers a core2duo E6300 was really
fine 1.5 years ago. Now it's not enough at all !
And how about Colmar ? This map is just unplayable because of
tickrate drops ...
On player's side : my old Athlon was fine with 25/30fps 2 years
ago. On the same map I get 10fps max today ...
Maybe the marketing push to more and more eyecandy things but
what about an eyecandy game you can't play anymore because of
mandatories updates ?
