djchase1 Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 I'm woundering why does high graphics slow ebfd internet games down? I don't understand why cause my pc is fast and i'm using LAN for my internet connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anathema Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 LAN for internet connection?The thing is, that with higher graphics settings it takes longer for older machines to process information, and thus it slows down. In such a case it's not a connection issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostHunter Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Mainly because it depends on your connection and comp, but online NO ones comp no matter what should be fully up on graphics even with T1 because its a good amount alrdy for WOL to process..

Anathema Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 WOL only sets up the game. After that you're no longer connected to WOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rigel6669 Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 The game will rock best with low graphics, shadows off and game speed on maximum ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harkdawg Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 I got Resolution really high, and i keep most things maximum except for shadows and landscape, and ive never had any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 Setting the shadows off does the real trick. I've played with only that setting low (off) and the game went fast enough for me. I mean I never got any complaints about the speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
