Perfoamance Drop since Patch ?

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
Has anyone else noticed a significant performance drop since the last patch ?

I played wed night just fine, and didnt so much as touch the PC till this morning. It patches (over 350mb) and then runs like a dog. (And I have posted in tech help about this).

Is anyone else seeing this ?

    I haven't noticed any drop in performance, but I've been playing every day rather then taking a few days off.

    Check the new options added to the Troubleshooting section of the Video options, specifically the framerate cap.

    Didn't they say they where capping the entire game at 60fps or can it be turned off? Still downloading the new patch so cant try it.


    Had to LoL at Per-foam-ance in your title :) How I love spell checkers.

    My copy is definitely not capped at 60fps. 6fps more like.


    Perfoamance - yeah, typing on a phone while waiting for the GF to try on clothes at a shop.

    Sounds a lot like its just me this has hit - I wonder if this game will perform better under WINE ?

    I have had the same issue. Load screens take forever and a couple times lasted so long I exited out of the game and restarted it. I know a new game of this magnitude will take a while to work the kinks out and I can hang in there on that learning curve. It does get frustrating though in an MMORPG that I seem to spend at least 30% of my time on a load screen.

    Hopefully this is limited to only a few subscribers or some uncommon configuration on the users machine.

    Another patch this morning but no fix. Someone has definitely dropped the ball on fridays patch.

    I'm at MINIMUM settings and it still runs like a dog. If they want a sub from me they'd better get this fixed. Thats not a "leaviing whiners " threat, just a simple common sense . Who would pay for a game they couldnt play.
