I been playing around with custom config file to get me the most fps and also improve my lag:
Here what you need to do to start optimising you crysis wars.
1:Open you Crysis wars config folder. for my is D:\games\electronic arts\crytek\crysis wars\game\config
2:Create a new system.cfg file, you can either copy one of the file that ends with config and rename it system.cfg or create a new one with notepad
3: Here the long list, if you wanna find what everything does then i will post it in another thread

This for me is great because am able to squeeze as much fps by disabling eye candy shit
There a line in top that goes cl_packetrate and cl_bandwidth this can be change if you having lag or getting kick out of the server.
My ones are set to 100 for both.
Hope this helps and if you need to ask question then just ask
Update: Here the rapidshare download to just copy and paste the file into the folder
