Damn no update for people still getting the stuttering problems with multi-core processing on 64bit OS's. The previous fix hasn't solved the problem for everyone, including me

I'm sure they're working on it. I just want more FPS and I think I can turn some of the features to medium but the shaders i want on very high

When are they going to fix matchmaking. I was in a lobby with with an Italian a French guy and a fellow Brit and we got put on a Japanese server. Also hate that whenever it fails to find a server it automatically connects via local instead of giving you the option like L4D.

Try turning off multicore rendering if it's available. That fixed the issue for me in the original game.

An idea that works with the stuttering cores, I had to go to task manager, right click on you left 4 dead 2 and hit set affinity and then uncheck one of the boxes. This fixed my issue on left 4 dead as it would keep stuttering. It will make the game playable till they fix it

I'm no expert here but does disabling "Automatically discover LAN games" under Options>Multiplayer do anything to help with that?

Maybe they will fix my lost stats and achievements now ;(

Yeah, it was weird how my game was 100% fine until the roommate joined my game, then it hit the stutter problem. Maybe L4D2 didn't realize I had Multiple Cores until then

Stuff like stairs and railings are not showing up but are physically there (i.e., you can't see them but you can still walk on them).

I've experienced that with a fence in Dark Carnival.

No fix for the Incomplete Installation error that a lot of people, including me, are still getting on launching the game?
