It is A LOT of fun, and there's plenty of options for the kits ... but ... unfortunately ... my much outdated video card can barely handle it in offensive battles, and I sometimes get 5-10 fps on a 32 player server.

So, I'll be the defensive guy with the wrench, upgrading muh sentries ... supporting muh teammates.

Using an nVidia 6200-256MB overclocked, I have barely acceptable lag (still able to play) with all low settings on a 32-player map ... but ... embarrassingly, I've also got a PCI interface, so ... well ... I fail.

Maybe if you promised to not ban anyone we could set-up a "Donations for OrangeHound's computer" campaign, similar to that for KCD...

I have a FX5500 and i can play it ok. Not on 32 player servers though. Then it starts to get unplayable. But on 24 player ones i'm fine. (btw i dont actually know if my card is worse, i'm just assuming it is because it sucks balls)

I really don't think it's your card. x300<FX5500 and I never lag only in the beginning.

I used to have a 5500 ... the 6200 is significantly better than the 5500, perhaps 4X better frame rates.

7300 is sub $100 and will give you another similar jump in performance.

Have you looked into your video settings to manually set everything to low? It might have defaulted to something higher than you wanted.
