late game performance problems / visual lags

[klok·lon]

so far i am enjoying the game, but after entering the 6th or 7th age (the one that introduces power) i noticed a considerable decrease in fps, to a point where i'd rather stop playing the game and wait for a fix, than continue.

my cpu load is around 30%, and my gpu load around 60% yet the game feels like it's lagging a lot, when panning around the map. it feels like the game is very poorly optimized. my setup should easily handle this even at the 5120x1440 resolution i'm on (5800X3D, 6950XT). i even turned off clouds but that seems to lead to nasty artefacts during the turn end calculations.

i've even seen videos from content creators in 1080p resolution struggling to maintain fluid and lag free gameplay in those later ages. are you guys experiencing the same issues in the later phases of the game? first 4-5 eras were completely fine.

You're not the only one. I stopped playing age of visitors because alien attacks are another increase in load times.

I just had a game where I was in the final age trying to leave the planet and had a hard black screen/audio bug before my computer locked up to the point I had to reboot the PC...with 32 GB of ram, a 1660 super and a ryzen 5...like how the ♥♥♥♥ is it that rough when on the lowest graphics settings? haha

Same here, first eras were perfectly fine, but after a time, the game becomes a chore to play.

I have a i7-7700K, a 1080TI and 32GB.. Even if my PC is not the best, it should not have problems running this game at all. We're not talking about a next gen AAA here...

I've tried to play on 1080p, reducing graphism, restarting the game often, etc... That helps a little bit but not bit a lot.

The problem also appears in CIV6, because at one point, the math behind all the buildings, the units, the buffs, stats, and all the things the game needs to calculate becomes really complicated, but it only appears very late game, like near the end of it.

It doesn't seem to be the same problem here, where it start midgame, and even between turns, where there is no math, the game is lagging.

I hope they fix this soon, it should be their top priority! It renders the late games, which seem the best ones to play, really painfull.

havent experienced any performance issues with the game, maybe check it you have any background processes slowing down your system
