Wondering if anyone else is having to play with GPU particles off since the new turrets have been introduced?

Game is virtually unplayably laggy with GPU particles on.

Helps if you post your PC specs, most problems come down to scrubs building custom PC's and mixing new and old hardware, overclocking too much and not cleaning.

Unfortunately, I know your pain. Before the Inferno update, missiles were fine. The heavy particle trails are killing my performance though. I wish there were a slider directly for particle emission. I know there's a button to disable missile effects entirely, but that kills the attraction missile boats have.

Seeing a salvo of heavy or cruise missiles traveling at top speed towards a poor target nearly 60 kms away is the sexy thing about them. I haven't found anything that works though.

My specs are as:

AMD Turion X2 Mobile 2.1 Ghz Dual Core
4GB of DDR2
AMD Radeon HD3100
320GB HDD SATA.

Most important specs anyways.
