It'll be fixed in the patch
Well it might be.

Personally Ive no keyboard lag or any other issues (as ive said in a few other threads)
AthlonXP 2600+ 2.08ghz
640mb Ram
6800GT 256mb
SB Audigy

Also dcovell, you need to start posting real information if you want help. It will take forever to try and help you find out if theres something you could do to improve it if you're telling us your specs via a series of clues or sarcastic comments.
Have a read through the sticky at the top explaining about improving FPS, alot of those will help reduce CPU load aswell which could help smooth out your keyboard actions. :)

Once again, could you please post your system specification? The above information is not adequate as a "P4" covers a huge range of speeds and a "128" graphics card is meaningless.

Well I have this problem too. My system is a PIV 3GHz, a G-force 6 6200 256MB, 1.5 GB ram and a sound blaster Live sound card. So it doesnt sound like ram for me huh?

No, for you RAM is pretty much not an issue. Your slowest component is your graphics card, and with a 6200 you should be looking at the various tweaks and adjustments in the sticky thread at the top of the forum to make sure you get the best from it. Another area to consider is your sound. The SB Live! card itself is fine, but quite a few people have reported performance issues as a result of codec problems.

Remember that PCs are complex beasts with many possible areas that can cause problems. The advice for one person may not apply to someone else, and even apparently identical PCs can have different issues because of their configuration, software installed, and so on. In the midst of all this it is often tricky to identify when there is a genuine game issue to be addressed!

Whats a codec problem? I dont have any major problems it is stable with no crashes etc in over 9 days of play. Its just little things like the slow keyboard and mouse pointer being on a rubber band. And the M5 population problem if it is a problem?

It would be nice to play without a degree in computer science.

oh and P.S.

Did you REALLY need to make a dupicate thread?
I started the thread elsewhere and was asked by a moderator to ask the same thing in here. If the Moderator had just moved my thread instead of suggesting that I reiterate in here, and then going on to move my thread AFTER I had reiterated, then there would have been no duplicate.
If you looked you would have seen the "Moved" tag at the begining of one of the threads. But then then when you REALLY think about it, does it REALLY matter?
