Did some serious stress testing and i discovered that there is also a serious memory leak in this game, tried it on 3 different systems.

system 1, the one i use myself has 2 gb ddr 2 of memory <-- has sometimes a memory usage of 1.5 GB for this game alone.

system 2, 3 gb ddr 2 memory <--- has sometimes a memory usage of 2.4 GB for this game alone.

system 3, 4 gb ddr 2 memory <--- has sometimes a memory usage of 3.1 GB for this game alone.

Now this can simply not be happening, so i gues there is a memory leak somewhere in the game.

Yes, that's what I'm suspecting, too, from what I've read so far (I don't have the game to check it out myself). I hope this gets adressed quickly.

Everytime I've checked (ummm, everytime I've had to kill the game in task manager, and I've had to kill it a lot already - way over 50 times now) it's always shown less than 500kb memory being used. However the longest I've been able to play it was the first day with about 4 hours straight then it crashed and I had to kill it in task manager and I believe it was still under 500kb of memory being reported being used.

How large are the cities that you have open when you are measuring the memory being used? How long of a period of time was the game running when you got your figures? More specifics would be helpful I would think.

Hello Amenirdis, SO glad to see you! :) Hope you are well and happy. :)

I too don't have the game yet, so I cant say anything about this question.
