GPU bugging in this game.

Hello guys and girls.

I have a relatively old gaming videocard, namely a radeon HD4870.
It should run COH2 decently and in fact it does. In terms of frames per second and things like that.

However whenever I run this game my friends get messages that "I'm lagging" including myself.
Mostly my whole game freezes and nothing seems to move for about 5-10seconds.

And after playing each session for about less then 5 minutes my screen blacks out, the game crashes and I get a bug report.

Graphic settings to minimum doesn't decrease my problems. And by that I figure the graphic settings are not the problems. I even updated my ATi drivers to the latest, but also that did not work.

NOTE: So after some google search work I find dozen of people that use the same graphics card as mine whom also suffer the same problems.

1. Company of heroes is one of my favourite games. I want to preorder it. But even although I assume that both ati or sega will fix it I have no insurance on that. So what about it? any suggestions?

2. Or perhaps there's a fix I don't know about, please tell me if there is.

Thanks for your input. But I think your dead wrong. Even although the gpu is 4 years old it's still decently enough to run the game. In fact the videocard of the same series is listed as "recommended" as to play this game.

And I get decent frames per second. There is just a bug with my videocard. Whether that bug generates itself from lacking drivers or faulty COH2 programming. This game is still in Beta, and I want to preorder it, but now I don't know if I should.

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy

Soheil: Coh2 still broken server ?

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
