Rolling back my ATI drivers to 11.8 is actually what got rid of most of my problems. The current release is 11.9
The only thing that is left to fix is the texture pop-in.

Also there's no loss of accuracy when hipfiring, unlike a lot of contemporary shooters like CoD. It's great that they're catering to their long time fans, aside from Deathmatch assholes.
Because someone was bound to say it eventually: That looks a lot like Doom 3. Ha ha ha ha ha (sarcasm)

As far as I can tell, most of the problems are driver issues. One thing that really was screwed up was the "hotfix" that amd released for the drivers. It messed more things up than it fixed.
At this point the only issues I have is the lack of control over my graphics settings, and the texture pop-in, which will be patched up, just like every other game I've ever played on PC that had a problem, which is over 90% of them.
I still hear a lot of complaining about the textures themselves. Which is a non-argument if they had paid any attention during the game development. The textures and art assets were compressed by a large factor. Down to 25 gb for the game rather than the internal build at ID of 150Gb. They had already told PC gamers that they'd be getting the same textures as the consoles, thats why there was talk about a post-release texture pack. Apparently the artists at ID were disappointed at the problem, but there wasn't anything anyone could do about it, not unless you want to install using 16 dual layer DVDs or 5 blu-rays, provided you have a blu ray drive in your computer. Either that or use 2 months of bandwidth quota with your ISP. I'm actually playing the game now and I'm happy with it. Just waiting for a patch to fix some annoying glitches.

Is there a way to work inactively with someone? Are they going forward? At the end of the day?
