Hey, I've been playing planetside 2 since early beta with little to no problem on the high setting 70-120 fps no problem. But last week i decided to change my setting to ultra through useroptions.ini, i turned everything up and it looked awesome got around 50-80fps. I noticed when playing i was getting frame spikes of 5's and crashing every 10-20 min. I went back to high settings since i though it was the ultra settings but i was getting these crashes again even more often. Is anyone experiencing the same thing? Any way to fix it? My computer specs are: I5 2500k 3.4ghz 6950hd 2gb OC to a 6970 8gb ddr3 1600 sabertooth p67 1tb harddrive windows 7 32bit (need to upgrade) Im pretty sure my computer should be able to handle ps2. Should i upgrade something on it to see if it runs better? Maybe its the 32bit and i need 8gigs? Sorry for the confusing post im bad at this stuff. Thanks!
I have the 64bit version as well and the crashing problems have started to appear to me after the last hotfix. No more interest in playing, when this happens.
I don't recall seeing the game consume more than ±2.6GB for the 4 months I've played, but I do agree upon upgrading from 32 to 64 if you have more than 4GB in your machine, otherwise the extra memory is useless.
Getting this as well every 30m - 1hr, or the game bugs out and I only see the sky box where ever i'm looking at >_<. i7 3930k 3.2ghz gtx 680 4g vram 32g 1866mhz win7 64bit Really shouldn't be happening please fix soon.
Would be regretful to get the crash after every kill streak , but for now it's happening in random order.
I had the same issue until I reduce my resolution to 1600x1200. I think PS2 cannot handle high resolutions.
Ya, and because of that, I can kill a team with grenade, and also get some helping cert after I dead.
The problem isnt anyones cpu or gpu, its in the game programing that you crash, there is a memory leak that causes the same data to be generated over and over again till you run out of memory and crashes your system, requiring a reboot to PS2. To confirm this is happening go to task manager and see your processes info for planetside, you'll notice the mem usage going up, up, up, never going down. This is a issue with the game and cannot be fixed without serious technical modding, which would likely lead to a ban. I run the bare minimum of reqs with a 32-bit and 2 GB of ram i still last 2 hrs, the only thing im not sure of is the reason a PC with more ram would crash faster than mine would. The only thoery i can conclude is that your cpus are working so well you actually generate useless information FASTER and that causes the crash. No technical support to claim this thoery is right though, i simply want to play the game. Still looking for reports but have yet to see an actual program fix for this problem, hopefully jan 30th will address it.
