Guide to a better driver for your video card

The NVidia drivers are now easier to install with Tweakerizer . I didn't notice a major difference, but it may have given my FPS a little boost on Highest Detail. Besides, I think my main bottleneck for that setting is RAM (1GB). YMMV.

Agreed, although isn't cast time always 4 seconds in interlock (I could be wrong)? They would have to come up with a way to show both in and out of interlock.

Remember we're talking about Damage Per Second, so the cast time should be taken into account. For example, Logic Cannon 2.0 has lower DPS than Logic Barrage 4.0, but it does more damage in one hit because it takes so long to cast. How lon...

I just checked and Direct Fire now uses 50 IS and gives 35 DPS (not bad). Supposedly, melee free-fire is more likely to cause a state (dazed/staggered/off-balance) than in interlock, but I don't know if that also applies to ranged free-fir...
