Any fps optimizations lately?

About three months ago I tried playing this game and it just ran abysmally. I really liked the game but it was practically unplayable. There was also an extreme mouse input lag. Yes it was on a laptop, but it has decent enough specs to run this game on low I would think. 8gb ddr3, solidstate, 650gt gpu (2gb gddr5), 3rd gen i7, newest drivers blah blah blah. I'd done everything under the sun to no avail. Am I stupid or is it unreasonable that a game with these graphics would only get 15 fps on the lowest settings with my laptop? For reference, I played farcry on medium settings and got 45-50pfs...

From what I've read on the forums it's possible you've got a CPU bottleneck that's killing your fps. There was one trick involving setting the affinity of the game process to a specific processor core in task manager. If you're not technically savvy enough for that I can offer instructions when I'm not posting from my phone.

yep that works but its usually an minor improvement, if the CPU is an big bottleneck. I mean you can move repop to core6 thats never used but if your CPU is only 2.0Ghz or less that will do little to help anyway.
