my only solution for breaches was dynamic resolution.. so if it drops below 60 it gets upscaled.

pathetic that we are forced to set the game to 480 pixels to be able to play it at all



it kinda is pathetic, on the other hand there is so much stuff going on in a breach. i would understand if the processor gets to its limits but since it's a GPU problem they need to turn down some of their "cool animations".. maybe even remove some of them in a breach, like the whole screen is glowing/blinking/flashing with some builds anyway.

since patch 0.1.1 I have noticeable improvement of FPS in many situations. However, FPS drops are still present in very large maps. How does it look for you?
Same issues. Was hoping patch would fix more of the problem. But not really. The game is NOT optimized.
Graphics settings doesn't matter even if lower resolutions.
I hope they optimize this game or anything. Its just unplayable most of the time.
Lowering the Settings does not fix the FPS drop issue.
Lowering the settings does not increase my FPS at all.

I get a solid 160-180 fps idle and 120-40 fps in most maps.
In more dense biomes such as Ezomyte City my FPS will drop to 60-80 and when Exploding my whole screen the fps can drop into the 40's. Which is not idle.
Breaches make it even worse.

Hopefully they fix this sooner than later.
Give us more options to disable certain aspects of the graphics in the game, like removing shrubbery or effects etc.

Here is a freezes, cpu load when i start playin is near 35% and jump time to time to 100%, after a some time cpu load gonna be higter and highter and comes to 75% all time and jumping to 100%, idk about temeperature but when cpu load jump to 100 i take freeze for 0.1-0.5ms and my GPU load fall to 0 and after frezee gonna 100% again. 2-3 times game drop me to the desktop, no resets, no stucks on loading screen. Changing Direct X 11/12/Vulcan repair the problem for some time but later i must changing it again.

Fireball wildshards will tank my fps from 60 to 40 or so, adding unleash drops it to several seconds PER FRAME. The game eventually speexs back up and im usually dead after everything warps i to place again.

Latest patch has made this worse.

GGG your spelleffects are killing the game. Between the floor being a mess I cant see, to totally exploding my fps to zero ( while my computer is happily running at 60% ) its become unplayable.

Allow us to straight up turn OFF specific spell effects so we can still use them without the visual clutter. Like I want to see everything, except fireball. Fireball KILLS my fps, absolutely destroys it.

Edit, it is actually SRS causing the fps cratering. Fireball works fine, but when I have SRS on the skulls summoning and dying instantly is causing a 99% FPS loss. The last patch has made this issue FAR worse.



I had exactly the same problem with SRS, which forced me to respec into a non-minion build.



same heeeeeeeeeeere

Yep, having the same issues.

I play a Witch Infernalist, early game when you don't yet have much spells etc it's fine even on my GTX1080 (about 60fps on 4K no upscaling). When you start blasting fire wall and similar screen filling spells it drops to 20fps. Even on GeForce Now that runs a 4080 I see FPS dropping from 100-120 FPS (4K no upscaling) to about 55-65... Oh, and it's also very bad on the PS5, late game I'm getting well below 30FPS at 1080p and all settings to low!

GGG needs to fix this or at least tell us it's something they know of and will address some time later on.

If I remember correctly, they even said in one of their interviews that anything below 60fps on current gen consoles (PS5, Series X) is a failure. We're currently getting below 30fps on the PS5 so yeah...



Same issue here, cant play or join someone. I would not blame them most of those joined me died cause of the laggy and the foggy looking graphic
Same problem. Got FPS drops from 60 to 30 at some effects and at some maps. It's really awful expirience. Game need optimisation.
My graphics settings is all LOW, NVDIA DLSS at performance and still got FPS drops.
At diferent maps i have diferent FPS drops. If map have trees\grass - it will be FPS drop. If map have deliruim fog\breach - it will be FPS drop. For real, list of things with FPS drops is a lot more.

I have i7 7700, GTX 4060TI.


my solution works kinda, i set everything to max and limit fps to 30 no problem so far XD
