Default FPS

Hello!

I have a Athlon 2600+
1 GB RAM
ATI RAdeon 9800pro

and the Game runs on 60FPS.
If a Ship is exploding the FPS falls to 30 FPS and if I see a Convoy,my FPS are 30-40 FPS.

What FPS do you have???

Greetings!

My system is as follows..

Motherboard= ASUS P5P800
CPU= P4 3.0Ghz 800Mhz FSB
RAM= 1024MB PC3200 DDR
GFX= Nvidia 6600GT 128MB card
SOUND= Audigy 2ZS Gamers

I get around 130fps +/- 10-20fps while playing depending on what is going on.

I never drop below 60fps when in 3D view.

The only time I drop to lower framerates is when in map view at high time compression and a convoy or ships are nearby.

Just a quick note on FPS...

Anything consistently above 23 is good. This is the point where the human eye ceases to distinguish between individual frames.

When you want to compare framerates it´s also very important to post the anisotropic filtering/antialiasing settings, display resolution and the mods that you are using!

Framerate seems to be a quite subjective matter. I generally find below 30 fps in an "idle" situation unplayable and only above 50-60 is comfortably smooth for me. I've always preferred speed to eye candy as the better graphics just don't pay off if they are too slow.

Thank you very much.

FPS it seems is NOT all that important. What is important is how Fluid images are(at least to me)
