i ask because i recieved the following reply from a suport request:

Hello James Hutton,
Unfortunately after reviewing the configuration of your computer, it appears your specs are below the minimum requirements to run the game.
I can only recommend you to try the following workaround given on our forums, however we will not be able to assist you further about this: http://mwomercs.com/...ability-issues/

i seem to have issues with frame rate on mech warriors online,
since this patch (02.04.2013) i have been getting a frame rate of 9-11
ive noticed there is a number of issue with frame rate atm but even before hand i was only getting
a average of 15 - 20 not matter what graphic settings i have on:
i have put my system specification below, im afraid as a casual gamer i have no idea if my system spec is the issue

Hm...after looking at your specs briefly I cannot really see any failure to mee the min. specs to be honest. You in fact exceed them in all areas...

The only weakness is the AMD CPU as it works far less efficient compared to an Intel CPU in the same range (BUT the discrepancy is JUST for MWO as it is still a very CPU-hungry beast to say the least!).

I am running a i5 2500K with a Radeon 6870 and get an average of 40-50 FPS on most maps. The newer ones go even higher (Alpine and newest map).

How many average FPS do you get?

I think it's the GPU:

I have

Processor: Intel® Core™2 Quad CPU Q8300 @ 2.50GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.5GHz

Memory: 6144MB RAM

Card name: ATI Radeon HD 5570

Display Memory: 3820 MB

Dedicated Memory: 1012 MB

I can run the game (relatively) fine, although this recent patch has given me some FPS issues. Before this latest patch I would say I ran the game fine, with less hardware than you have. edit: apparently my GPU is better even though it's a lower number? Why even have a number if it isn't indicative of performance... http://www.hwcompare...d-6450-oem-1gb/

My question for you is: What game resolution are you using? I have a 1080p monitor but I need to play the game at 1600x900 to see decent performance, otherwise all I get is a slideshow. Downscale your game display resolution and see if that gives you a playabel FPS.

Some FPS issues?

I simply cannot play. I´m running intel core i5-3210M, @ 2.50 GHz. Nvidia GEforce GT 630M.

Before the update it was OK.

"Cannot play" is incredibly vague and offers no avenue for people to try to assist.

Mine runs Very High. I have a slightly better graphics card (twin, actually). And lots more ram. Could be the card and/or ram?

Since I know people with twin Radeon 4800 series cards can play, I'm thinking the RAM might really be hurting you.
