0.4.0 and 0.4.1 Beta Unplayable on Nvidia GTX 1650

Hello,

I'm having trouble with the latest beta. While the prerelease versions up until 0.3.1 work perfectly fine with good on my machine with good visual fidelity and acceptable framerate, I find the newest beta to really struggle. Looking at the GPU usage graph I see that it doesn't really saturate the GPU, but even at the lowest graphics settings and a 720p resolution, the framerate is ~10 FPS, and every few seconds there's a hickup that takes multiple seconds at which time GPU usage drops to zero, and there's just no screen updates for multiple seconds. I'm somewhat worried that this game will be effectively Unplayable at release time in January, even though I've had a lovely time with it before this beta.

Hi, I'm surprised that you were able to play well under version 0.3.1 because your graphics card is below the minimum system requirements. The Nvidia GTX 1650 only has 4 GB of graphics memory, among other things, but the minimum system requirement is an Nvidia GTX 1070 with 8GB and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti with 11GB of graphics memory is recommended. So in my opinion, only a graphics card upgrade can help here.

Best regards,
HECTOR
