Horrible Performance on Necropolis Map / Uber Lab

First of all my PC Specs:

CPU: AMD FX-6300
GPU: AMD AMD 270X
RAM: 4GB / WesternDigital HDD (yeah no SSD yet)
OS: Windows 10 64bit
Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 2233RZ 120HZ (1680x1050)
Ingame Settings: everything on low

Hey, I just went on a Necropolis Map and noticed the Game performance, especially on this Map, is just horrible! Doesn't really matter where on the map, but especially in the middle of it my fps are like 30-70ish at maximum. Beside that, the Frame Time (?) and my Latency goes crazy like a rollercoster. Even after I cleared everything, it just remains that horrible.

I took 2 Screenshots of it:





I know the overall Game performance isn't that great yet, even after 2.3.3 and still needs more improvements but this is just...bad.

+ in the Uber Lab, in areas with a lot of traps and packs, I've made the same experience performance wise so usually I just avoid those areas. It feels just awkward being in areas with such issues.


I hope this is the right section to post this in.

Thanks!

Hi, while I have no problems in uber lab and Im running quite alot of them, I noticed that there is something wrong with Necropolis.
A month ago I had a Necropolis map with an Elreon inside and I noticed that my fps just got divided by 2 as soon as I was only a few screens away from the master.
I thought it was just a bug and moved on.
A few days later I ran into the same issue again, Necropolis + Vorici this time. I even invited someone from 5055 who was using a 144hz display and his fps also got properly halfed as soon as he got near the master.

For Uber Lab, I just notice heavy performance issues while being in areas with a lot of traps + packs. Cant figure out why because on (most) maps I dont have any problems at all and there is a lot more stuff going on, even in fights.

I just hope GGG will improve the overall performance a lot more. 2.3.3 brought some improvments but still not enough imo.

Personally I would prefer heavy performance improvements over any coming AddOn like "Atlas of Worlds".

Just saying this because you put a question mark at Frame Time, you can think of that as the opposite of FPS graph, high fps = low frametime, high frame time = low fps.

As you know a second is one thousand millisecond, which means that to achieve stable 60 frames per second you need to draw each frame at 1000/60 millisecond, roughly 16.6ms. As you see in the graph when you're getting 29FPS it shows 34ms FT, 1000/29 is equal to roughly 34ms.

So TL:DR you can think of both graph as one.

Necropolis is a very odd map to have that issue, so I think it's good to posted here.

not specifically for this problem, but a general observation; 4GB Of system ram seems a bit low, any way for you to upgrade to 8gb?

There's no point to upgrade to 8 GB. The game isn't even 64-bit.

You're not just running Path of Exile though.

They said they have been redoing most of the maps so they might already have fixed this issue :)

I dont think so, atleast not for Necropolis since I just was there like 2h ago and wrote this thread right after.
