Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel

FPS drop
I am currently having an issue where fps is dropping hard when horde wave comes especially between the min 2-4, enemies rush at you while fps drops. anyone else facing this problem or is it just me?

Game is great, need some fixes like I had 100% pickup range and still felt like it is not working.
Evolving after 20 is a good idea but chance of having the spell you want to be evolved is too low, sometimes you got nothing to evolve so you are forced to pick a random spell.

on my 3080 build and with the attendant graphics quality, I'd be expecting well over 200fps - but the game runs at 50fps with barely any mobs. It might have been fun, but I didn't bother playing past the first minute, it obviously requires serious optimisation, might check later but uninstalled for this nextfest
turning of the shadows helped , but still sometimes at the end of the game min 3 or 2 in hard mode enemies swarm you and fps go nuts

I'm playing nearly max settings and it's been pretty smooth for me. I'd recommend setting max framerate to 60 (or whatever works for you). No need to play at 100+ fps, as you will see some frame dips with more enemies on screen. You can notice a 100fps to 60fps dip, but if oyu keep it at 60fps, you won't. I play with an AMD Radeon RX6800 GPU and AMD Ryzen 5800 cpu, 32GB DDR4 3200MHz on an SSD. It's a solid computer, but nothing too crazy compared to latest gens.

To get evolved spells, you will need to ban and reroll. It's definitely doable to get 2 spells to level 4, but can be tricky. Sometimes the gods are with you, and other times not.

What are your computer specs? This game is fairly demanding on both the cpu and gpu, and I believe it uses UE5. I will use my overlay and see if I notice fps drops next time I play,

The game flat out crashes my computer after a few minutes. I'm done with it at least for now.

I'm on 13900k/4090 (Windows, bios, drivers, etc. all up to date) and I get these weird momentary freezes in the action some times. Started happening after the 2nd demo iteration. I think it's related to Unity because I noticed it in one other game. Nothing like that happens to UE5 games, even Black Myth with everything in Nvidia control panel jacked up all the way. They said they were fixing it but it's still happening.

Stable 144fps, but yeah in some areas (late game) there are fps drops. Its normal, lot of visual things on screen.

Hi!

Thank you for your feedback and for reporting the performance issues. We’ll look into it.

I think the difference between what you're experiencing vs. myself is that I may have tuned my GPU settings. Google how to expand your shader cache - that might help. I get these random freezes but then the game plays like normal after. I think that's when you're crashing and I'm not because I remember setting mine to unlimited or something absurdly high.

If that's not it, it's probably the difference between our GPU's memory... I'm on a 4090 so I could just have enough to avoid the crash. Hopefully they address it for you. It's not a huge deal for me, but it's definitely noticeable....It literally freezes for .5-1 sec once or twice a match.

Could it be the game is better optimized for AMD products at the moment? I have no stutters. Framerate definitely lowers when there are a ton of enemies in Hard mode, but it's still pretty smooth for me. Maybe gets down to the 50's rather than 100.
