I gave a try to the game and i loved it so far, i had two small settlements that weren't even half-way done and then my game started to slowdown and freeze really bad, at first it just froze when i tried to speed it up, but at the end i wasnt able to play even in normal speed.

Specs:

Operating System
Windows 7 Home Basic 64-bit SP1
CPU
AMD A4-4000
Richland 32nm Technology
RAM
8,00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 672MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard
MSI A68HM-E33 V2 (MS-7721) (P0)

Graphics
768MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 7480D (MSI)

Edit: This is all i made so far. 3 towns, but i haven't built anything yet in the third one.

Edit 2: I noticed that the game won't go past 150-250mb of memory, when it could easily use up to 1gb to run smoothly.

What version are you running? 2.0.3 should have some slight performance improvements.

Memory and graphics card are almost certainly not the problem, it's probably the AI scripts. There's some peculiarities around the scripting engine that have been dragging things down. If you press F2 the performance window will appear, with a detailed breakdown of what;s taking so long. I'll try to work in a more comprehensive performance fix into 2.0.4

Here's what it looks like, its a different map i started after i updated my drivers and net framework incase any of that was the issue. Whenever i load the game i instantly get a horrible lag. I hope it helps track the problem.

I'm playing version 2.0.2.0 actually, downloading the last version to see if it works better or has the same issue.

The game works perfect on version 2.0.3.0 at least with 2 towns!
