Hotfix 3.1: game still runs like ass

[NITRO]

And its still basically unplayable. Idk wtf they did to this game with that damned update 3.0, but before that damned patch I had stable 50~60fps with 1% lows rarely reaching 40 and my GPU hotspot temp never went above 85.

After patch 3.0 that changed, game became unplayable, I lost 20fps in performance, with 1% lows often reaching less than 30, and my GPU is constantly melting down at 100C because for some reason even at the main menu the GPU utilization goes to 99.9%. Not only that but the "ultrawide support" made the FOV awful and headache inducing.

Im also positive this is some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ on their part because before that patch I mentioned temps being stable, with one exception: the customization menu. For some insane reason, whenever I went to play dress up doll with my space marines, in the menu that's supposed to be rendeing NOTHING but ONE space marine, my GPU util would go crazy, temps would get infernal. Then moments later during a swarm of tyranids in a beautiful map temps would be just perfectly fine.

Im honestly baffled at how bad they screwed the performance up with that update and the only time Ive seen a great game's performance tanking so much after an update was back when Darktide was fully released.

the power draw in class selection and post-match scoreboards is hilariously high and bad

I've not checked my framerate in the game but I can say that the 3.1 patch has fixed all of the issues I was having in operations. The sound cutting out and stuttering is gone, I haven't had a disconnect yet, nor have I had any crashes yet. It's a huge improvement for me.

I'm just not going to play the game until they fix the issues with random crashes in missions. I can't even beat the game because it keeps crashing at specific moments and I'm just... I'm tired man.

Same, but after long play session i played inferno mission where my fps dropped to like 25-30 while directing the camera into the middle of the map. No overheat or anything, restarting the game fixed it, but it never happened before.

I just played a mission where in some bits I would get back to the framerates I had before, but sometimes if I would go to certain within the same room it would drop to 30 with extreme stuttering, it was awful.

You're all lucky you can even play it. I tried installing for the first time and my AV did something I missed, I didn't quite catch it. I think I'll wait a few months before trying again.

[Slinks]

I fear it's going to get to the point where players just don't believe or have faith when they patch another Update that 'claims' to fix issues

With a bit of luck and divine intervention maybe the game will be stable for the majority by Christmas.

Disappointing and such a shame really

Hope you're able to resolve your issues fast

it would have quarantined Saber_symstore.exe. A lot of people were complaining about it when 3.0 launched thinking it was a virus

My game has increased in FPS by around 20fps but yeah the game is very wonky on resource utilisation

I'm pretty sure that resource utilization is the source of these issues. There's something that they enabled that is for some reason forcing people's GPUs to render one or more redundant thing at the same time.

No other explanation as to why trivial menus like the title screen or customization menu would demand so much power, and now the actual game itself when playing.

[Grim@FU_BARRACUDA]

Im not surprised, i expected it ;-)

[JenkemHuffer6969]

I was stable before the patch, now I literally cannot boot the game before it crashes. CTD on startup consistently 4 out of 5 times.

im playing 130 fps no issues now
