o_O 40fps is still playable "a bit?" I play at 15 FPS and I'm fine...

I find it very hard to believe you can play at any decent level with 15 fps, when anything below 30fps in any game is pretty much considered unplayable.

Anyways, you have to be kidding me if the engine can't support other shadow settings or no shadows at all.

Well, according to the game's stat tracker anyway... :-? It's probably closer to 20, but still. I don't think any game I've ever played, I've been above 30FPS...I've just never had the hardware for it.

I also find it hard to believe because TM is such a fast-paced game. However graphically wise, it makes sense. Games with realistic motion blur are easier to play at lower framerates. Movies and TV programs are usually about 24 FPS, which sounds horribly slow and un-watchable, but it works because of the motion blur real life has.

True, and not to keep rebutting you, but I have motion blur off...

I have to say both of my machines can't handle the new TM very good...

Machine 1:
Notebook
Newest Shader, DX 10
7 FPS :S

Machine 2:
Computer
8 Year old graphics, outdated shader (shows pixel instead of smooth shadows/ quadratic shadows)
30 fps (but it stucks every 4 minutes :S) not enough ram (768mb)

And playing with 15 fps is more than possible!! I played 2 years on this notebook, and some night stadium maps were just unplayable for me, but I still got some WR hehe (trollface)

So please NADEO, make a solution for not so much shadows or none!!! :(

The latest update changes the options in the settings menu. It may be worth checking out.
