Performance issues since update 4.0?

[DukeGren]

Basically the game seems to run quite a bit worse after the update.

Used to run fine, well I had it locked at 60, but I never noticed it falling below that. Now it can drop into the low 40s, saw it drop to 15 on Decapitation when the bridge gets destroyed, but I've only had that happen once. So far chaos areas seem to cause frame drops most reliably, the end off all 3 chaos ops run at 40 – 50 fps.

Tried changing the settings, thinking it might be a bugged effect and/or setting or something, but I'm seeing no real difference between low and ultra, the game looks blurry as hell, but I only gain 3 – 8 fps depending on the area.

Not using the 4K update and only running it at 1080p with DLSS at Balanced, actually didn't use DLSS before the update, but it also doesn't seem to help.

My PC has an RTX 3080TI, AMD Ryzen 5900X, 32 GB RAM, and the game is installed on an SSD. So, yeah, it's no longer that great, but it could handle it fine before.

I've also noticed, that the game seems to eat up 11 GB of VRAM, which I think is a bit much looking at what is actually being presented.

Just looking to hear if anyone has the same issues and/or potential solutions.

Alright, haven't seen too many comments about it, so I was starting to wonder if something had broken on my end. Thanks.

Haven't had any crashes since day one, until this update. Had 2 so far in about 10 hrs of gameplay.

Lag and hangs, fps drops continue, I don't have any crashes either.

I haven't paid too much attention to FPS as I have it locked to 60, but I know it fluctuates.

Servers have been rough since day one. I'll get lucky most days without disconnects, but lag I notice the most.

Got kicked for the first time a day or 2 ago, and I dont blame them. I couldnt stay up, parry and dodging was so abysmal due to lag.

Yes, it's all true, a patch will come next week, but I don't know how much it will be fixed or what will be fixed.

I'm not getting my hopes up for performance improvements. We haven't seen much so far.

I know a lot of AMD users still can't even run the game, and not much has been addressed for them.

Game's going to grow and adjust a lot, but I dont know how long people will hold on unless they're 40k nerds like myself.

There is not a single decent game released recently. We are always tested like test mice. I guess the producers rely on FSR or dlls. The future is not hopeful. :))

Funny thing is, DLSS doesn't even do anything on my end. Not having it on and "Ultra Performance" is the same fps, game just looks blurry as hell.

Agree 100%, I treat everything as "early release" anymore.

I purchase the games I think I'll enjoy, and hope for the best.

I have been enjoying SM2 for what it is, but as stated before.... I am biased, and a blueberry.

We talked a lot. Let's get back to the game. The Emperor needs us

Little update.

Was just messing around in the campaign, playing the 2nd Kadaku level.

At the end when you get the jump pack it started running poorly, dropping as low as 40ish fps.

I tried setting the graphics preset to low, this fixed the performance, I then turned the settings back to high/ultra and it continued to run well.

Something's ♥♥♥♥♥.

Worse performance since patch 4.0 and now I cannot finish a single operation without crashing. I've reinstalled the game and updated my drivers but I'm still having CTDs

[DukeGren]

Game continues to run poorly with 4.1.

Was replaying part of the campaign, in the final mission, during the fight alongside the dreadnought near the end, it dropped as low as 23 fps, it certainly did not do that the first time I played that part.
