Client Performance (Updated June 16)
|
My main beef with client performance is that I'm running a decent 40-60 fps on low settings, untill I meet something dangerous. It's like the main cause of my deaths- I walk into a room, something scary pops up, but my client doesn't work properly for 2 seconds and I end up dead or almost dead because my character was doing nothing. Big packs of white mobs don't usually cause anything like that.
Main offenders are rogue exiles with all their swag effects and bursts unlike anything in the area. |

The worst fps drop i had was 3 days ago on a 2week race. I faced a group of magic "dogs from docks" in Scepter of God. My Marauder with 1,5k hp 60 fire ress got melted on NORMAL in 1 sec... hello

This sounds really cool guys. We can all deal with desync, but having to avoid party play altogether and having to restart the client every few hours gets tiresome.

I'm assuming this was tested on some lower end machines. I'm curious to know what sort of fps numbers these changes will yield for those that have struggled with fps. Like a & change in minimum and average fps.

Hmm. This game will never be graphically well off until you do something about your engine, asset loading, and ffs the sounds, why are the sound files so messed up? If I run a modded OpenAL32 I get better framerates. If I use --nosound, I get even better performance.. wtf.
The sound(s) and the way you make the game play them are the issue. You have Creative sound proprietary dlls, but yet your sound is so fubar, if I attack a non-dieing grinning totem, I'll lag out due to the bottleneck of 50 million fireball ogg requests being made, which your game can't handle. I get 45+ fps in any other game I play. 80 man AV, no problem, 40+ fps, GW2, titanfall beta, etc no problem. Try to solo a museum map- ping timeout while trying to load your crappy ogg files. Honestly, something has to be done. |

" That's most likely an issue with the game applying visual effects to so many things simultaneously/calculating your actions effects on so many things at once, not the audio associated with your actions. The game only handles 32 sounds simultaneously currently, which is what 90's DOS games supported (Windows 95 games saw the introduction of support for 64 sounds and EAX boosted the number even further, eventually to 128).
