Will you do something for the horrific performance of the game? And if, when? It's totally unplayable even if the rig meets the recommended specs.
 
Hey there!

Have you tried this?
By changing the video settings you can mainly improve the battle view performance.
The dev team are working hard preparing updates for the game that will improve the performance.

But in the meantime we suggest the following:
In the main menu go to the options menu > video > advanced, then make sure that all the sliders are set to the middle settings.
Lower them further to improve performance. Restart the game for changes to take effect.

Uncheck the following options as they are the ones that require most cpu/gpu power:

Ambient Occlusion
Antialiasing
Motion Blur

To further improve performance uncheck additional video options (especially vsync) or try lowering resolution. Restart the game for changes to take effect.

cheers,
regina
 
Thanks Regina. It is not quite clear to me however, when a tick means on or off.

For example sound quality with an X, means that it is set on high quality sound or not?

To those who still have constant crashes with the game:

Please do the following.

- Write an email to support@kingarthurthewargame.com
- Let us know your Forum username
- Attach your DxDiag report (If you need help creating your dxdiag report, check this: http://devblog.neocoregames.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/How-to-create-a-Dxdiag-report.doc)

Thanks.

When 1.06 came out, you responded in the bugs forum that it wasn't intended to fix the 32-bit issues, but that a fix was still coming for that at some point. Now with 1.07, we're distinctly not told the 32-bit issues have been fixed, but that we should report the problems--which we already have, in the past.

With respect, I can't help reflecting that this sounds as though vague promises have given way to a reluctant admission that nobody can figure how to fix the issues.

Actually the reason is very simple:

The updates v1.1.06 and v1.1.07 have fixed all the 32bit crashes that we experienced on the 32bit configs we have here. They also fixed memory leaks.

But of course we couldn't possibly test it on all existing hardware configurations (not to mention the different software environment) - that is why we did not claim in a patch note that it was fixed. We ask those who still have this issue to write to support (even if they have already done that once) for several reasons:

1. We'd like to have an idea about how many people are still affected

2. We'd like to check from your DxDiag what configs you have if you are still affected

3. We'd like to check from your DxDiag if we can suggest anything that might help you with this issue
