I don't know why my game is running so poorly... I just purchased the three-pack City of Heroes, City of Villains, & Going Rogue, installed it last night, and played for the first time today. I've played other games ie. The Sims 3 and The Movies, and never had such horrible graphics and performance issues! While I was in create-a-character, the game looked and performed great, but then when I went to the tutorial, the graphics took a HUGE dive, and there was so much lag on the motions that I couldn't even tell where my character was moving!
I read another similar issue/thread and someone checked out their CoH diagnostics, so I got mine to post on here as well. TIA!!!
