Agreed, i'm still not convinced this comparison is legit. That said, lowering the amount or quality of foliage/grass is a common method of freeing up resources. You'd be surprised how demanding grass can be :p Especially if the lighting engine reacts to said grass. |
I learned white well how demanding foliage is. A few years ago I tried playing Obilion on my $300 netbook (HD 6310 graphics) and I was only getting ~10-15 FPS. I simply turned grass off and boom: 20-30 FPS.
