And one more thing...

I finally got into a v1.1 server running the Omaha Beach level (w/24 players) and was horrified to see my frame rate hit 10-14 fps any time anything interesting happened... This on a 1 Ghz P3 with a Geforce 3 TI 200.

Is this normal? I had to shut all the goodies off (dynamic lighting shadows, fog) and turn all the options to Low to get a consistantly reasonable ~30 fps.

This occured during the single player game as well but it was tolerable then. It's completely unacceptable for multiplayer. RTCW does not suffer such performance hits.

Man... I understand that economic realities require that games be released before their time occasionally but RTCW set the bar for a highly polished FPS. I had such high hopes for this game and the levels are the best I've ever seen. But... multiplayer seems thrown together, unbalanced, and insufficiently tested. I hear you are working on a new game, MOH-Teamplay or something like that. Please don't neglect fixing current multiplayer issues just to extract another $50 from us.
