Will this game get a new engine / get optimized better?

[Flav1oTT]

So before i say anything, these are my specs:
4080 super, 64 ram, i9 14900KF.
however, i do play on a 4k monitor.

I mostly get around 100-150 fps, less than my 240hz monitor, which is understandable cuz its 4k but i expected more with my mentioned specs.
I've asked many people around, and most players play in around 50-80 fps, some 100-120. I believe this game needs better optimization in that sense.

Maybe i'm just looking at this the wrong way, you guys tell me!
Happy new years btw, 2025 shall give us more battles!

Check out this link, they talk about moving Squad to UE5 in the future.

at this point i think only an exceptionally talented team could remake squad from scratch and prioritize optimization over ease of implementing new features

the root problem is there is simply too much to render and only one CPU core is actually responsible for updating the state all of the players and vehicles, this is largely unavoidable on unreal engine
the devs would need to come up with ingenious ways to allow for the huge scale maps and have an aggressive culling system to reduce the load on players

no amount of additional GPU horsepower is going to overcome this issue

UE 5 best engine

It is?

Cause OWI is struggling on optimization with their other game that is on UE 5.

Dude you get 150 FPS on 4k, I think that's more than enough. I get 50 FPS at medium settings on 1080p.

150fps is already more than you will ever need.

If you're dropping this as indication of potential improvements, you're in for a (VERY) unpleasant surprise if and when it happens.

This has been discussed to exhaustion, Squad is mostly dependent on CPU single-threaded performance. You can search for it in the forums, and I'll tell you upfront that with a 14900 you're at about peak performance with this game, regardless of GPU.
