(Possible fix) Performance on WCUSA

Ive been seeing a lot of people complaining about poor performace on WCUSA. So, i have sort of a fix (Maybe, it works for me and i im trying to if its a isolated problem)... So
1.Go into Graphics Options
2. On the quality Selector, select Custom
3. A few options will pop up, including one called "Lightning Quality"
4. Lower that option to Lowest.
5. Report gains or losses in performance. To keep things consistent, DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE

 

I think this worked

Before:


After:

 

wow, lowering graphics quality makes the game run faster
who would've guessed

Although i see your point, just drop that one but leave the others as they are. The lighting quality is probably intensive because of all the traffic lights etc

 

In fairness WCUSA is gorgeous and isn't that bad for what it is. Less performance than other maps but there is more happening

 

Went from 8.3 fps with everything on Medium to 23-26 FPS, so yeah worth trying out It helped more any of the other settings. Just too bad it now looks kinda HL2-ish xD
