FPS loss

[Battle Pope]

Is anyone else having a huge FPS loss like me after that server merge? Please help. its hard to play now, even on the lowest settings.

[I Hate Pants]

I've noticed this also. Its a real pain in the ass.

[Fragmatic]

Likewise

I don't know how the FPS got b0rked so much, it used to be great, even on 512mb ram

Used to be great? it was NEVER good, it got better with the BP but now is back down again. But this drop is basicaly due the larger amount of people.

[Battle Pope]

There shouldn't be a drop, the extra servers should cover for the extra people.

It seems like my fps is bad outside or in a tower. But when I go into a base its much better.

[Battle Pope]

Can't say I'm that lucky

[Biohazzard56]

Personally, my FPS count has been stable (40) with the new patch

[NoSurrender]

ive been good myself 60fps. I think that their optzimazations were good for some bad for others.

[SilverLord]

Mine dropped lots, so I overclocked and got the lost FPS back and then some.

If you are on Emerald its defintely lagging during prime much worse ofcourse. I'm usually on Markov and its doing fairly well.

[TheRagingGerbil]

I have to admit that this is the first patch that has decreased my fps.

Though I do have to say this...

FPS optimizations through animation craptification is stupid.

Fps loss has nothing to do with the server, its your own computers ability to handle all the info th server has to send you about what other people are doing! 8) If it were teh server end. It would cause a slow chain reaction causeing a huge system malfunciton in every computer linked to it. 8( Or atleast damn close. Trust me it wouldnt be pretty. from a perspective of something that could see it happen from teh speed of electricity! It would be like Krypton exploding but a billions times more catastryphic. hell the universe collapsing in on itself would be tiny compared to it. 8)

yeah, the server merger did the following:
- Increase Cont. Load times by a lot
- Increase lag, and duration of lag
- Increased game crashes

also, i want to note that the JH+Surge+Agile exploit wasnt fixed at all, i still get the 3 frames of death thing

Speaking of crashes, I noticed last night that the recall to desktop bug is back.
