Well if it's a memory leak like someone else said, then i'll find out in a bit, i generally always run my memory cleaner with PS2 and another MMO i play, so if my performance remains as it was prior to update I shall post here with a link to the memcleaner I use .
I like how everyone is complaining about 10-30fp/s, but I'm completely used to playing at that rate anyway due to not configuring my graphics correctly. Typical though that this happens right after I did configure them, so I can't really tell how much I actually changed.
No change here - 70 to 80 FPS in warp gate and between 50 to 60 at The Crown in large battle:- Intel i7-3930 O/C 4.6GHz 16GB Kingston HyperX 1600MHz DDR3 Nvidia GTX580 Gigabyte GA-X79-UD3 Intel 520 240GB SSD (Windows Drive) 2TB Western Digital Black Edition Game Drive
no change, except it seems at load it takes more time before the game runs smooth, i would say it went up from 1 minutes to 90 seconds, i'm fine with the 35 farames/s q9550 quad 4gb cheap ram 560TI all settings on maximum, except the forcephysics = 0 and motionblur = off
you need more than 1fps to spam noob pods? edit: anyone else have issue getting shadowq to stick to =0? mine go back to 1 as soon in game. edit2: delting user, RenderFlora=Off ps2 set to high have brought my fps 40+ so far. although still unable to force shadow to =0. specs: 16ram 2600k 3.4ghz. 560ti. w7.
A patch is imminent which should address much of what you folks are seeing. We appreciate your patience while we resolve it.
I did some further experimenting, I lowered my res from 1920x1080 to 1440x900 and got a significant increase but lowering texturequality also made a difference, I can now sit in the warpgate with fps in the mid 70's and went into the VR room and stayed over 40 fps. I'm thinking textures is putting a fat dent in the fps rate right now since low/high settings in graphics and lightning and other settings hardly make a difference. When I set texture back to high, warpgate struggled to stay over 40 fps an VR room went back to the low 20's. Also CPU usage averaged 50-60% while GPU sat at 2-18% regardless of settings, which is no good.
The problem it´s that we don´t want a patch, we want a REAL game improvement, we want a GU5 with ONLY PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS if it´s neccesary (and it is)
Not to be penicity. But as the person above says, what is doing it, also by your use of 'much' can we infer its a complex problem, that might take a hotfix or two to fix?
Didn't notice an FPS drop as such, but what i DID notice was at times it got REAL stuttery while flying. Like up and down between 5fps and 50fps reallll quick. At first I thought 'Wooo, realisitic shakyburners!!' But yeah, shooting anything proved problematic heh. Good to hear a fix is on the way, the game's been running pretty smoothly for me before the GU.
