If you have a PC older than 15 Years, maybe...
My PC is 9 years old, doing 200+ fps if uncapped. capped it to 144 since my monitor is 144Hz. I have 0 reduced fps with any skin...

Yeah I normally get 400+ fps with my 4070 TI and 360 hertz monitor, so even with these skins affecting fps I still have a much higher average then you. But, I'm STILL noticing specific skins causing massive fps drops, and you can clearly see thats in the case in the video

Well if it causes fps drops and your PC can tank those fps, unlike the average guy's PC, it would in return be P2W, no?

Buddy, you have absolutely clearly no idea what you are talking about.

...No. If I'm losing fps it's still a disadvantage. Just because my system is better doesn't mean the skin is pay to win. Also it's only cosmetic, there is no pay to win features about it. It's affecting fps negatively for everyone. No one is winning.

All they care about is using the game as a cash-grab, hence the constant skin releases, the two tier premium battle pass. The little care about the top fragpunk player's cheating like #1 zephyr. I had a ranked game against someone who went 14-0 and was clearly using wallhack and reported him along with others and nothing.

People complain about kernel-level anti-cheat but that's the best way to prevent or lessen cheat availability. They don't care enough to improve their anti-cheat.

You can dump the memory offfset's easily and make a cheat within an hour.

Hey sorry but this is just not true. They have already fixed a lot of issues including a massive fps bug that was killing the game for about a month. The devs are actively listening to us especially on Reddit. Communication hasnt been the greatest but they've acknowledged that within the last week and are already visibley making changes. Bunch of QoL fixes, they have 150k tournament, partnering with companies like GearUp Booster, being very active with events especially in the discord. I could keep going it's very obvious they want this game to succeed.

I don't mean to be that guy but this seems like a skill issue. In my experience the anticheat is fantastic. I've only seen 1 cheater in my entire playtime, and looking back it might have just been a bot as people are mistaking the bots for cheaters because they do look like they are cheating, but it's not a person. Kernel level anti-cheats are the new normal and that's for a reason. They work extremely well and efficiently. People are getting banned on used hardware because it's picking up past cheaters used on said hardware. That's absolutely insane and shows how well it is in fact working.

BUTT don't worry guys, it's 100% not a cash-grab but we will spam your inbox with products we can sell you, from our partners, so we can profit off those partnerships just sell you software to improve your connection but we just gaslit you, actually there was nothing wrong with it.

If it's so easy do it. I'd love to see you make one, go in game and use it without being banned.

If you don't like the game that's totally fine, but there's no need to slander the game. It already gets a ton of unsolicited hate that imo is forced.

Firstly, you quite literally just verbatim copied what I said about kernel-level ACs. I have been in cyber-security/modding/hacking community since 2010. I could very easily make a cheat for this game. I wouldn't mention partnership's like GearUp as a good thing, it's a way for them to blame their poor netcode on your home connection and to sell you a product. If that's a good thing, that's your opinion.

If you've seen one cheater, good for you? you didn't mention your rank whatsoever but that's okay. I can provide footage for you to analyse since clearly you're an expert on cheating and cheats in general. I had others in the same game call out the cheater and he said nothing.

"People getting banned on used hardware" I doubt that, FragPunk barely has any player base to begin with and that can only happen through HWID bans that use your unique set of components to create your HWID usually things like HDD/SSD etc.

Never did I once say, I do not like the game. If I did not like the game I would not have 300 hours playtime. I would not be almost master rank.

I think the problem is your thought's deserve to be in /dev/null

Cool I'd love to see the cheat ill be waiting

Sure what's your email? I'll just make a cheat so you can report me, that makes a lot of sense but I will forward you that cheating footage, if you do publicly post your email.

Why would you buy skins instead of saving for better rig if it's lagging for you?

I already have a high end rig. Not everything is about you and me. This is a pretty major issue affecting everyone especially those on mid and lower tier rigs. And this isn't an issue with my hardware, it's just straight up and optimization issues with the game.

Same here, but its affecting fps to be noticeable with the 1% and 0.1% lows, and its a 70 fps average difference which is significant with the ghost pepper skin
