horribly bad performance

get to work in optimizing your games optimization, its killing anyones computer if they have AMD even on low and superlow the maximum frames you can get in the middle of a battlezone is 5-10 fps, in quiet areas you could get if you are lucky 20 fps

You might want to go to the official forums, no one official is reading here.

How do you optimize optimization?
Here's a newsflash, my computer has AMD.

Here's a flash of a newsflash, I run the game at Ultra at 60fps, with around 30 or more in 96+ vs 96+ battles. It doesn't kill anyone with an AMD's computer. It kills yours.

The game is (very obviously) a heavily demanding game. If you don't have enough RAM, a good enough CPU and GPU, a good enough HDD, and sufficient cooling systems in your PC, you won't get good performance.

If you have a laptop, kindly guide your mouse to the "library" tab in the top left, find PlanetSide 2, right click it, and "delete all local content". Laptops will not and cannot play this game, even if that laptop cost $8000. It will not happen.

If you have a PC (meaning a tower computer), as I said above, double check everything. Close every application except for Steam before running the game, take off the side cases to increase airflow into your PC, turn on a fan or buy a fan and point it directly at the insides.
Make sure you have a good enough PC overall, and good enough cooling.

List your specs like I'm about to list mine, and in the same order.

AMD FX-9370 @ 4.6 GHz
GeForce GTX 650 TI BOOST running in SLI (I have 2 total)
Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 Motherboard
16 GB DDR3 @ 2133 MHz RAM
1,000 Watt AZZA Titan Power Supply Unit
3 TB SATA3 HDD @ 7.0 GB/s R+W Speed @ 10,000 RPM's
