When can we expect good updates?
Now that TWO dlcs have flopped and the CEO is out... when are you going to fix the fact that having many savegames drastically hurts game performance? When are you going to fix the bug that was introduced in 1.2-1.3 which spikes cpu usage when you click on any location? When are you going to fix the lagspikes introduced in that same patch which occur when you open the pops menu?

Is there a plan to go back and fix all the problems that have been created over the last few patches instead of crunching? Is there a plan to make the byzantine dlc less ♥♥♥♥?

What are your specs? I don't seem to have those issues.

Same here - no performance issues.

Intel Core Ultra 7 265K (3.90 GHz), ASUS GeForce RTX 5070Ti
And yours?
OP making it up or has potato. Maybe both.
this game has a trashy optimization, when playing multiplayer with my friends we have to constantly relaunch the save cause the game slows like hell after about an hour of playing
Whenever the game becomes free to play

A Ryzen 5 2600 from 2018 simply doesn't have the single-thread speed required for EU5's pop calculations. The good news is that since you're on the AM4 platform, you can probably just update your motherboard BIOS and drop in a Ryzen 5 5600 or 5700X3D without replacing the whole PC - it should solve 90% of those lagspikes and the cost is relatively small.

Yes, it does, on 1.0 and 1.1. When 1.2 dropped paradox vibecoded in several massive performance issues when you click on a province. Also, the load time went from around 10 seconds on launch to around 4 minutes in 1.3. Patches 1.1 and 1.2 were mostly dedicated to REMOVING features and 1.4 has gone as far as stripping multiple core game mechanics in the name of "performance", yet the game is running far worse than last november on launch, which is what this thread is about.
The game is clearly poorly optimized, that’s for sure—but if you’re experiencing 4-minute loading times, that’s also down to your own setup...
