So poor optimalization

[orlov]

One of the worst optimalized game I've ever played, sadly. It feels like they just completely didnt care about that. Too bad, cos gameplay is awesome.

[bone]

whats optimalization anyway?

*cry* *cry* I get 15 fps less than other games *cry* *cry*.

A little less fps compared to other games is not a deal breaker.

Interesting opinion orlov. Why do you think it is unoptimized in it's current state? Personally I do not share your opinion.

[CosmicHaze]

The thing is with this game, you need every bit of fps you can get. That 15fps could mean you getting that last bullet on that skulk dancing in circles around you, or your fps going to crap and next thing you know you're dead.

I really feel for the people with the mid grade pc's, even if they are above recommended specs.. they are still getting awful fps. I myself get angry when I dip to 45fps in a firefight, I can only imagine dipping down to 10-15. That's unplayable. Optimization should be a dev priority, and they are making progress. Just remember it's a small dev team

[Volcano]

it is their priority

Optimisation is fine if you dont have a 2008 computer.
I have a Core i5 with 8 gigs of ram and Geforce 560TI and run the game in 1920x1080 no problems. you need a good cpu

I have simple infestation tho, the only changed setting

Also turning the textures to "medium" from "high" makes a HUGE difference in performance (for me anyway) without too much reduction in quality

[Razgriz2099]

What are you system specs Orlov?

[Therius]

This game in its current state is unplayable for me I get about 10 fps if Im lucky and I have well beyond all the recomended specs I came on the forum to see if there might be a fix but I dont seem to be the only one with this problem I would love this game to work but sadly the way it is now I wish I hadnt bought it, My computer by the way is pretty much brand new custom built not some crappy wal-mart computer and it has no problems with other games such as planetside 2

[Razgriz2099]

See the thing is some other guy said the same thing. When he finally posted his computer specs it was determined that he was below the minimum requirements.

Again: POST YOUR SPECS if you make a performance complaint thread! It's not hard, please do it, or otherwise there's zero value to your statement!

It is a very demanding game, I give you that. But to say it's poorly optimized is a little bold if you ask me. The engine is faced with a combination of tasks with so many entities and still a good amount of detail.
I used to play on a Phenom II X4 940/4GB DDR2/Radeon 6950 and I got around 50fps until late game, then it would drop to 30. But I hhad AA on, textures on high and played at 1680x1050. I consider that a decent optimisation, seeing the mentioned system is mid-range by now.

There are many AAA games that have worse optimization, like Far Cry3, GTA4 or Rage.

i7 920 @4ghz, 16GB ram, 2x2GB 6950 Crossfire, 3x WD Caviar Black AAJS in Raid0

Yesterday I dipped to 15fps endgame (the lowest number I caught while I was paying attention mind you)

AA off minimal infestation medium AO on 1680x1050.
Yea, optimization.

[Volcano]

keep in mind that it doesn't support SLI yet so its only using one gpu

There is certainly something wrong at your end. I run it on an i5-2500K@4.3Ghz/8GB/9650 and get a solid 80 fps with everything on/max (except bloom, can't stand it). It does dip below 50 fps occasionally, when there's lots of buildings/exos and ablities used late game. It never drops below 30 fps.

Maybe you should try to enable/disable multi-core rendering and texture streaming...

Ya honestly Makenshi, I don't know why you get that bad of fps late game..... I run a phenom 2 x4 @3.6ghz and a mere radeon 4850 and the lowest I get is ~30 fps in 20+ player servers even in late game.

I do play with AA/AF/shadows/ambient occlusion off, but infestation on rich, running in my monitors native resolution of 1440x900.
