Wow, that's bad.
In my case it's nowhere near as pronounced, I only get it for ~0.5 seconds and not as often, either.
And my system is much older.
Yeah. I can't really play the game in these conditions, it just takes me out of the experience =/.
I'm just trying to distract myself with the new XCOM game until I get Dragon Commander sorted out. It seems like an awesome game, it's just been hard for me to get into.
