"The Kuvah'magh" framerate issues

Since the update which introduced the new Miral Paris, I have tried multiple times to replay "The Kuvah'magh." Each time, I experience severe framerate issues once I beam down to Regulus IV, rendering the mission unplayable. I've noticed that the problem is most pronounced when I'm facing inland, and somewhat less (but still present) when I face the ocean.

I have updated my video drivers, and the problem persists.
You're right. The work here is very important.

    I've done a lot more than replacing drivers and the issue persists as well. IMO its nothing we can take care of, its likely problem with the game's texturing/shading (still, it might be useful to list your system specs). It also crops up (for me at least) on New Romulus, Risa, Kobali Prime (slightly), the Dyson adventure/battle zones (slightly), the exterior ground component of "blood of the ancients," and on...that one FED mission where we had to wander around in the forest fighting gorn and disabling shield generators.

    Basically, anywhere with a decent amount of detailed vegetation (or analogous environmental art in the case of the dyson allied space [framerate drops a little when looking across map towards contested zone], which spells DOOOOM! for the upcoming summer event (Risa is not playable, particularly when facing towards island center). Hopefully a fix is on the way but as its been season 10 for a little while now (which is when these problems started, I went to Risa a couple days before the update and things were perfectly fine) without a word from Cryptic I'd expect the worst.

    I remember getting low frame rate in "The Kuvah'magh" long ago, at least several months, possibly even a year. I don't think the problem is recent. But if it helps, here are my computer specs:

    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit), Service Pack 1
    CPU: Intel Core i7-4700MQ
    RAM: 12 GB
    Video card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 765M (2 GB GDDR5)
    Nvidia driver version: 335.23
    Direct3D 11
    Waiting for a programmer ...
