What is this Performance.... (Solved-ish)

[Cynical Nerdist]

I'm playing with two other AI and this game is running below 20 FPS. You have got to be joking.
Please tell me there's some tweak to fix this. This is kind of ridiculous.

I've found a fix for the performance issues. While it doesn't completely knock them out, it certainly helps a bit.

EDIT: Playing with two or more AI lowers the game to an absolutely unplayable state. One AI on my team and one AI on the enemy team = an absolutely unplayable 8 fps. I do not care that your game is in alpha and I do not care how much this game gets defended. If you are selling a product for money, you'd better make damn sure it runs at a decent, playable state. I am running this game on a GTX970 and there is no excuse for this performance.

If you're having performance problems, then navigate to the Nvidia Control Panel (given you have Nvidia hardware) and add the game's executable to the list. After that, scroll down until you find an option that says something along the lines of "Performance Preference" and make sure it is set to "Maximum performance" because the game has been known to automatically select your on-board card as the default card for the game.

Otherwise, just follow this link: http://steamcommunity.com/app/302670/discussions/0/541907867761726368/

Cheers! :)

Have you tried lowering your settings?

[Cynical Nerdist]

Yes, to lowest possible settings. Even then it runs abysmally. I'm running a GTX 970, so there's no excuse for this game to be running the way it is

[TheNoobYouHate]

I have 770 and run the game max settings no issues, perhaps you need to update drivers?

[Cynical Nerdist]

How are you playing it? 1v1? If it's 1v1, then obviously it's going to run well, but I want to play with more players than that.

[Cynical Nerdist]

Even at 1v1, the game runs with drops of 20fps. Even before the game starts with no players on the screen, it does this.

[TheNoobYouHate]

1v1 up to max players, I have even messed around in editor and settings were not lowered til I spawned in insane amounts of units.

[Cynical Nerdist]

I had no problems at all in Assault Squad with the map filled with players. In this game, the fps just drops to below 20 even with 2v1

Please tell me there's some tweak to fix this. This is utterly unforgiveable...

My FPS took a dive when I put it on insane settings but I have not had it with the standard settings.

What was the CP and MP limits?

[Cynical Nerdist]

Max

What do you mean by insane settings? Graphics settings or match settings

[lickitysplit]

your game is running on integrated graphics right now. you need to get it to run on your 970. there's a thread on how to do it.

i run this on my 960 ssc and it runs very smooth. runs smooth on 1v1 or 4v4 no problem. so it's definitely optimized enough where your 970 should be getting good fps.

so do a search through the forum and find where deltadude and instinct replied to how to make the game use your graphics card.

[Cynical Nerdist]

How would that be? In my graphics options menu, it shows my GTX970. Then again, it is greyed out to where I can't change it. That have anything to do with it?

sorry I was meaning match setting not gfx, so like 180cp and 50k MP etc...

So lowering the amount of CP or MP would suffice in alleviating the lag?

please consider what you are typing "utterly unforgiveable".
The game is in alpha.
The developers work really hard on this game and you have some performance issues and you say it is not acceptable. How about a different tone to the first post would win you more support in trying to sort it.
