I have a recurring problem, of which I'm unable to isolate successfully:
The main problem :-
-- Game freeze-ups --
Common during changing of multiplayer maps. And it starts at the end of the map loading, when it is verifying client data.
And it requires a button reset, unable to ctrl+atl+del or alt+tab.
Normal settings are: 1024 x 768 @ 60Hz, anti-aliasing OFF, 100% distance, dynamics at medium, the rest either at high or medium. Problem still happen when all set to medium.
This same problem occur at high settings [1280 x 1024, all high, sometimes with anti-aliasing ON or OFF], but I don't use them for multiplayer maps anyway, I use 'em only for taking screenshots from downloaded recorder maps. But the game freeze-ups happens only in-game.
Other notes of interest:
-Sound card, graphics card drivers and game patches are all up-to-date
-I cannot really say when I crank the resolution to 1280 x 1024 {settings mostly medium}, the freeze ups occur more or less, but I can say it still occurs.
-This happens FAR less or UNLIKELY when in single player.
-I've re-installed the game {according to some troubleshooting guide}.
What say you?
