FEAR 2: Project Origin is so slow

[faye]

Hi,

just got the game, it is quite awesome. However it is very slow.
I just the auto detech function. it set 1280x1024 as resolution and everything max out.
However, when i spin, sometimes the video just lag(frame lost)
I don't see my harddrive running all the time though. The load time is fine too.(it took around 5 seconds to load)

is it a bug or driver problem?

I'm playing FEAR 2, haven't experienced any slowdowns in frame rates although I'm running it on medium settings. You might want to tone down the settings from maximum which might help you in getting better frame rates. I hope your using the latest drivers for your video card?

I had rediculously long load times for a while; it was taking like a minute to reload after each death. After I installed the latest drivers, optimized for the game, that problem went away.

I haven't had the problem you are describing; the game has performed very well on all highest settings.

I guess a patch is in the work right?

This is one of the few games I had been looking forward to this year, but after playing the demo and seeing how clunky and consolish it felt, I changed my mind... How would you guys who have it rate the experience?

Do you have slo-mo enabled? J/k Does it get fixed if you decrease quality settings?

I don't mind it at all for the most part. I can tell the menu's have been consoleized, but they really aren't that bad IMO.

As for the performance problems, I've had none whatsoever with around the same hardware as the OP, cept an 8800GT 512mb.
