I've been having some severe problems since the 2.0 patch - performance wise. Before the patch, I would run almost everything on medium with refraction and whatnot, and itunes running on the background. It would run very smoothly and fast for multiple games.

But ever since the patch, I have to untick everything, set everything on low, quit itunes, and still experience slow downs during the game. I've tried reinstalling and checking to see if something else is chewing on my memory/processor usage, but to no success.

This and reading on other posts regarding slow-downs lead me to think that something is greatly changed - engine-wise - with the 2.0 patch. Can those of us not owning super S2 computers ever hope of getting this issue fixed? I've waited patiently for a fix, but alas it didn't happen as of yet. I miss enjoying playing hon without a problem. :/

Also interesting thing to mention - I read that you guys changed how memory is handled in 2.0? Or something like that... Maybe it has something to do with that. Maybe an unintended side-effect? Could you try reverting the changes? Thanks for your time. :)

edit: oh and I use no mods.
