OK, found out what causes the lag, this was posted on the 2nd day after release, so It'll be fixed for the next patch happy:


"I want to post this information first because just before release I made a statement that some of you will be experiencing issues with these 2 maps.

This is the deal with them. The factory and the Hangar were both exported with the older version of the max bf2 export tools. They were some of the first buildings done. So with that being said.. the old tools exported things with 5x's the faces.. Now the normal factory and hangar in total maybe have 7k in polys between them.. So that would be about 14k in polys cause there are 2 of each on each map usually.. But with the old exporter it apparenlty multiplied the faces by 5.. so Instead of 14k now you have 35k total for just having 1 factory and 1 hangar on the map.. DS and El al have 2 of each.. thats about 70k extra in polys.. same for gazala.. Not sure how many have said they've had issues on that map as well..

The weird thing is as I've been stating is that it doesnt happen to everyone

I have a x300 ati pci-e 128mb ram. core 2 e6600 with 2 gigs of ram and get NO LAG.. however I see guys with 8800's getting lag.. Its really weird.. But we knew it would be a problem for some so its already being worked on for the patch.. so hang tight and just trudge though it."
