A Few Suggestions (I'm no expert)


(GR0MIT) #1

AMD Phenom II 965 @ 3.4Ghz
Gainward GTX 260 @ 700Mhz (Gonna try my old 9800GX2 see if dual GPU is better)
8 GB Kingston DDR3 @ 1333Mhz

Hope the DEV’s read this.

Depth Of Field

I have noticed that r_skipDepthOfField 1 gives me a massive FPS boost in the character selection menu and following menu’s, this cvar is protected however and you cant change it in multi or single player, i believe this would benefit alot of users as i’ve noticed during my many years of gaming that DOF can create a massive FPS hit even on the best of systems.

Shadows

While the shadows in this game are really nice i thnk there should be a High, Medium and LOW setting reducing the detail respectively, also a Shadow draw distance option in the form of a slider bar for example the lowest would cut shadows off at say 25 feet and the highest would be near infinite.

Another idea would be to draw fake shadows and also have the option to remove your own shadow and those of others.

Specular or OHHHH shiney stuff

An option to remove Specular Map would be a good addition aswell.

Anti Aliasing and Anisitropic

Thankfully we have an Anti Aliasing option but a Anisitropic option would be good to.

Texture Draw Distance

To be able to set the distance at which textures become reduced would help the lower end systems aswell.

FPS limiter

for example com_maxFPS 60 would be very helpfull for those of us with fluctuating FPS to create a more stable experience.

I know i don’t have to worry about the devs considering all this as they have listened and responded well to most critism, which is farely rare in this day and age with dev’s. hopefully more graphics option will be added and a few more cvars unlocked for those of that are probably a bit to anal all this :).
