I always wondered why some people already had 4 kills when the map starts after a rotation… I now I know why


When I had 500meg of ram it took the maps about 40 seconds to load, but now with 1gig it takes about 5seconds

I actually double checked this by taking the extra 500meg out and it went back to 40 seconds.

Didn’t make any difference to frame rate. But man, the load times are a LOT faster!!!!
