I cannot get over how poorly optimized this game is.

I really, really wanted to enjoy it, and have worked my way through the campaign and a bit of multiplayer, but it was all while operating at <20 frames per second and with a one-second delay on all sniper shots (clicking M1 plays the firing noise, but the rifle actually fires a second later).

The reason it wasn't a problem before is because i was operating on a potato of a laptop and expected as much, but now that I have an Alienware 17 it's very frustrating because it still operates about the same as before.

Regardless of specs this game always ran subpar for me. If anyone knows what kind of problem I may be happening i'd be glad to give this a positive review after fixing it, but until then...

BTW: POSTAL 2 has a higher metacritic score

does it just crash randomly?

@Stalinx I got it to work perfectly once, after going through a lot of forum threads and tweaking game files. Ran fine, then crashed on next startup, then went back to being crap.

Maybe it is my computer, but I have all the right specs and did all the right fixes, and it still only sometimes works. This review will stay negative until it works like it's supposed to

It's your computer. I have a custom built, and it runs it flawlessly.
