Bad Framerates

Guys my systems specs first:

Athlon XP 2600+
512 Ram DDR PC 2100
Geforce FX 5200 T128 Mb
HD 80 Gb 5400 Rpm


I tried Planeshift on highest and lowest resolution. At 1280x1040 i get around 25 fps, at 640x480 45 fps. Everything would be just fine IF it didnt happen some major choppy movement when i do a 360 degrees or in some parts of the city my frame rate drops to 13 even at 640x480!!!

I would like to know if my VGA sucks so much i need a better one to play this game when its realeased or its the fact that the game?s engine is still on development?

By the way: This is the best looking game i?ve ever seen, this a wonderful job!

This has been answered several times before, please search next time.

Yes, the poor performance is not due to your computer, it is due to the unoptomized state of the code.  You are still getting higher fps than average.
Hopefully the next release (Crystal Blue) which will probobly be out in the next couple of months will give everyone better performance.

hmm, not a bad fps. I get around 60 - 90 fps..... But that\'s due to my pc. Simple rule, the better the pc, the better the game runs. Your pc is good enough for the game.
