The point wasn’t about the power of the GPU but rather that people seem to like staring at their garage screens more than it takes a normal person to select a new tank and get back into battle.

Indeed, it SHOULDN’T stress your GPU more but it does, I understand that…it just isn’t a problem all that much as the time spent in the garage should be quite small, unless you’re some kind of drooling idiot being impressed at how kewl a tank looks while you spin it around.
In which case I recommend making a printscreen of the damn thing and looking at that all day long instead of whining that zomg the garage is stressing my microwave oven…oh…pardon me…video card. Really!

You seriously think the 770m is as powerful as a 660ti? 770m has about the same power as a stock 560. You might wanna read som benchmarks……

- Chat 2.0 – “medium perspective”

What a fucking crock of shit. There is absolutely no excuse that the game got past closed beta with the POS chat system it has. Games released a decade earlier had a more robust chat system. It’s embarrassing.

All feature additions, removals, and modifications are
‘tested’ on the ‘test server’ in order to allow players to provide feedback and to ‘test’ the functionality of the alteration before implementing onto the live server. This provides the developer an opportunity to dismiss or refine an alteration before implementation.

I don’t understand how you could misunderstand the purpose of the process…

Non sequitur…Should all rendering be disabled, then frames rendered per second can not possibly equal 300.

you can cap fps with a 3rd party utility.

GPU stress in garage is there because it look 10 time better in garage.
There is about 5 or more light sources in garage, all of them casting shadows etc.
In battle, there is always 1 light source, on every map.

GPU doesnt care if something is static or moving. (eg. garage or battle.)
GPU is rendering it anyway. Yes, there should be fps cap in garage, but thats another story.

Im just saying that it is absolutely normal that the garage stresses GPU more. – more lights, more shadows, practically same amount of objects per screen, thats more calculations = more stress to gpu.
