Why does this game run so poorly?

[PorkMyBaconHole]

I might not be on the best of computers, but this computer handles Overwatch on ultra with no problems, so why does this game run so bad?. It also takes a year for everything to load correctly and about 2 games before it smoothens out to where it is playable. I don't understand why it runs so bad for me. Any suggestions besides buy a new PC?

Yeah, I have a good computer too and it meets low requirements and it lags for me. I think this game is a little bad optimized or it is just me

I've never had problems running it. I've got an Alienware 17 R4 laptop. Definitely good, definitely not a gaming desktop computer.

I think overwatch might have more than dozen devs.... oh and “I’ve never had a problem running it” on my 2 year old pc which u can see on my profile....

What are your specs? My PC isn't exactly the latest and greatest, but it can run DBD on Ultra @ 4k 60fps. The game loads pretty fast too, and I only have a 5400rpm hard drive.

Overclock your CPU & GPU if possible.

and this game still does not run the way it should its prob just the coding it is what it is

DbD is made by BHVR a Indie developer and they have 100+ people working on dbd including Console, Mobile, Switch and PC versions.
Meanwhile Blizzard is a tripple A developer and has over 4700 employees (numbers from wikipedia) and also a lot more money to spend and invest into their games.

If we look at this then we know why Overwatch runs better because Blizzard has way more ressources to spend and that makes their game perform better.
Still would be nice if BHVR could optimized the game a bit more

It doesn't matter to much if the company is indie or not. It matters if they have the experience and knowledge to properly optimize a game.

You can't optimize an entire game very good if the team for optimization is very small and this is the case with indie developers. They are small, have fewer resources and most of the time also not as much experience as bigger companies.

I5 7500 gtx 1060 6gb 8gb ram, settings on high and never had any fps drop

Don't Play on Ultra, you're wasting resources and the game will look like crap, by the way i run this game on a 710M

[21's bitch]

Just play on low.

[niko!]

I suggest you play on low settings if you haven't. The ultra settings don't change anything except change the shadows and make stuff blurry

[Draykoss]

The latest patch has absolutely killed the optimization of the game, ive had the same issue with 5 fps for the first minute of every match. Hopefully they do fix this soon

I know this is an old post, but it's still relevant. At ultra settings with a Ryzen 5 1600, and an RX 590 8GB, I get an average of 59 FPS.
