One thing I am constantly wondering is how the game seems to perform so differently for a lot of players. Many people are experiencing severe performance drops, stuttering, crashes and various other severe bugs. I've never had that happen to me. I bought the game on launch but only played it starting 1.5.7. I had no crashes that weren't caused by mods, my game runs smoothly all the time, even in big battles, menus and load times are very fast (i find almost no difference between the direct talk option and visiting the scene option in settlements for example), and most importantly, the ai seems to act better in my game, too. For example, in the dreaded sieges, most units use ladders and even towers for me. Granted, they are still being very dumb but by no measure dumber than they were in Warband. I gather from some of the posts here, that this seems to be the case for some people as well who have a technically more or less functional experience (even when lacking in substance, but this is not the point of the post).
Is it just hardware? That seems implausible to me because I play on a laptop lol, I certainly don't have a high end setup and some people with very good specs have bad experiences? What are the reasons for these very different player experiences, does anybody know?
