I know but I'm not pushing it here. The game has been unplayable even fighing 10 looters on low settings. I've just upped the settings to the high preset and done a custom battle with 320 men in total, and I had a pretty steady 60fps. If you look at my other comment, it seemed a minute ago that the disk usage was the problem, but this time it was way lower (but my CPU and GPU were struggling a bit on high). So it's not consistent at all, which makes me think really my hardware isn't the problem but some weird lack of optimisation or something...
EDIT: now i jump into my campaign and start a fight with 12 looters and it's basically unplayable.
So my CPU usage is fairly steady at 50-60%, but my disk usage is sometimes maxed out, so that could be the problem. Is there something I can do to address that or not?
I didn't expect that but you're right. But still it seemed to be the GPU that was the problem, it was at 100% but the CPU was at around 50% (if I remember right).
The game doesn't run very well. Generally there are stutters, but often it's not too big of a problem. But sometimes (even in battles with looters in plains) performance collapses completely and the game is utterly unplayable. I marked this down to early access etc but I see videos on youtube...
I thought it might not ask me too but it does. I tried copying the 1.143 files into steamapps but it still wanted me to activate and still wouldn't let me. This sucks balls, all I want to do is play an old version.
I bought the original mount and blade years ago then warband then I lost my warband key so I just bought it as a steam gift on G2A.
It works fine but is version 1.6whatever and to play warband enhanced I need 1.43.
I downloaded that version and installed it in program files x86 and went to...
