I'm currently running on a Toshiba Satellite C655 Laptop. I get really crappy FPS with the settings on I play it on. Could I get some recommendations of settings I could play on that would help me get better FPS. I've been toying with it myself but haven't gotten any noticable difference in the FPS.
Thanks,
Nick

Laptop

Intel graphics

Start the game up in safe mode. Go into graphics options and maybe up the resolution to 1366 x 768. Save. Restart.

Forget ultramode. Forget any fancy shader effects like depth of field or even basic water. You have an integrated graphics solution. Fine for a 2D gaming, lousy for any gaming beyond flash like games or 3D games on minimal settings. Except maybe Minecraft or Quake III.

Yea, I know. I only use it for work and stuff but it's all I have until I'm settled in with the Army and can get my desktop. Well thanks!
