Why do so many people have problems with fps?

[Mr_Carpenter]

I've heard that there are quite a many people who have fps-problems in city maps and maps with lots of trees or lots of other stuff. Many claim that they dont have bad computer. I have the same problem. First I thought it was just in one or 2 maps but I think the situation went worse a couple of patches ago. Now almost every second map in EU1 is like 35-60 fps, while open plains etc. have constant 110. Honestly I dont have shitty computer and last year I didn't have any problems. My drivers are updated etc. and other games like Batman Arkham City and Deus Ex are running perfectly with medium settings.

My processor is Intel Core i5 with 3,2 ghz, I got 4 gb ram and my graphics card is Ati HD 6700.

I'd guess it's the video card, since I got Intel Core i3 2100, 3.1GHz and Asus AMD Radeon 6850HD, and I got 360+ FPS with all settings maxed and graphic improvement mods in full forest maps, on normal / field maps I'm always at 500 FPS, wich is where my limiter is set to. But I am really having hard time believing that the difference between 6700 and 6850 would be this big.

In old cRPG and older cRPG I don't remember having problems with FPS. Not until recently did I notice FPS problems. My computer can run Skyrim fine and other games, so... why not Mount and Blade/cRPG!? Don't know how that makes any sense o.o

Also do you guys tweak your OS at all? I have disabled all services I don't need and removed all "fancy" windows 7 shit. Also cleaning registry & all the useless trash every once in a while helps a bit, also defragmenting hard drives should be done regulary.

And everything below 100 is almost "unplayable" for me ...

Cool story but human eye can't see the difference in 60+ FPS.

Cool story but Warband has this odd thing with FPS, you can notice the difference between let's say 60, and 130.

Hell, not just Warband, but this game is really like that.

This "lol eyes can't see more than 24/60fps you can't see moar fps than dat!!!11one" dogma is getting old.

Facts never get old. Human eye can't see the difference in 60+ FPS. DOT.

Protip: more FPS = less latency regardless of what the eye sees

Ignore the wanna be tech support. Or believe them and keep playing crappily, I don't care.

The biggest help I found was capping the game's frame rate to your monitor's refresh rate. All the laggy stuttery maps became instantly playable.

I have 120 fps all the time - the problem is on your side not on the games

[Fluffy_Muffin]

My suggestion - clean your Pc/laptop, get a program to maximize your coolers, buy a new graphics card

[Fluffy_Muffin]

Had the same problem untill i blew the dust of with an air compressor, and everything runs fine now. What card do you have

Only if you capped it. FPS will vary with any card in this game as you span across different densities of objects. The problem is you don't know what you are talking about. If you did you would bounce between 120 and 200 (or max setting) if 120 is your floor.
