Looks like the specs of my old pc including the 2mg broadband connection. The old girl couldn't run COH in quality graphics mode without a major frame rate drop, so if you haven't done this already try going into Options>>> graphics...turn off advanced graphics and scale the slider to "recommended graphics"

Ive set it down to recommended with sever frame rate drops, even on minimum settings around atlas im getting 11.fps..
Nuts

the last thing i thought it would be was my broadband speed, outside of how its set up at my end... this will not do...

Hey guys, I know theres probably a 100 posts like this but after some mighty searching seemed best to just ask direct

Ive recently started playing COH again but the frame rate and lag is the game play,
It does improve when I turn the graphics settings down but ive put them on minimum and my frame rate is still plummeting below 11 fps!

My system is as follows

Microsoft XP service pack 2
Intel Pentium 4 cpu 3.60ghz\
2 gig of RAM
DirectX 9.0
NVIDIA Geforce 7600 GT
2mg broadband, wired connection.

I also keep a pretty clean system in terms of background running programs

I was wondering if my system should be still dropping that low and struggling that much on the equipment I’ve got.
I am running through a router and wondered if that could be causing it? And if anyone had any posts or information found on how to open ports to help my game play!

Thanks soooo much for any advice…
