Suggestions to improve framerate?

I've been able to play the game successfully on my old laptop, but I dare not try anything higher than Low quality - and it's still a bit slow/laggy in indoor environments.

OS: Windows 7 64-bit

Processor: Dual-Core Intel -i3-2310M CPU @ 2.10 GHz

Memory: 6 GB

Hard Drive: 750 GB Capacity

Graphics: Intel HD Graphics

Obviously, it's a laptop, so there's no way for me to put in a better graphics card than the one it came with. I just wondered if there was anyway to optimize and improve the speed of the game so the fps gets better?

not much you can do with that machine, i fear. it just barely meets the game's system requirements. if you are any kind of tech-head, you could try to overclock the processor, but i really doubt that would help much.

Overclocking any computer but especially a laptop is not to be done unless you know what you're doing. Overclocking generates more heat and without the possibility to increase the cooling, a laptop will overheat quickly.

One thing you could try is to see if it's possible to increase the amount of system memory (RAM) that is available to the GPU. In older computers with onboard graphic chips it was possible to set the amount of video memory in the BIOS. This may also be possible in your laptop.
