Will there be a patch soon to address some hardware issues as well as some broken missions?

- Changing of weapons always has a slight delay/lag.
- Screen ripping on some LCDs especially larger widescreens. No option vertical sync to help this.
- System crash on exit, random.
- Reduced performance in SLI mode.
- killing an enemy as they jump leaves their excess ammo clips in mid-air rather than falling to the ground.
- Very long load-times.


System it's played on are several game rigs at work.

- Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 w/Zalman 9700
- eVGA 780i 3xSLI mobo
- 3 GB DDR2-1066 dual-channel mode
- 3 x BFG 8800 GTS 512MB PCI-E 2.0
- X-Fi Fatal1ty Pro
- 4 x 74GB Raptors Raid-0 (Stripe)
- LiteOn LH-2B1S Blu-Ray Disc Drive SATA
- PC Power & Cooling 1000 Watt
- Mantronic 4U Rack
- Samsung SyncMaster 226BW
- G-15 r2.0 KB & G-5 r2.0 LM

Windows XP Pro SP2.1, Latest Stock drivers, hardware at stock speeds.

We tried using 2 vidcards, instead of 3, and the lagging was much less.
Also, disabling every second core (ie core 1 and 3,so each paired unit has one core running) appears to remove the system crash on exit.
