FPS DROPS? Try Park Control
Try using Park Control to unpark your cpu cores. I went from 10 fps to 55-60 medium settings
- i5 4670k 3.4ghz
-gtx 770 2gb
-16gb ram
-ssd

I can even play on a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ HP laptop low settings
-i3 5005u 2.0ghz
-intel graphics
-8 gb ram
-hdd 5400rpm

Park Control is software that unlocks all cores to be used instead of whatever the program or game calls for. So I have some games that only utilize 2 cores and park control will force it to use all four. I can get a few extra fps or in this case nearly 50. Is that what you were looking for? I guess I just assumed everyone knew what is was, sorry.

You could also try this in the "Set Launch Options" tab as well in Steam for the game. It has made my game run smoother.

Our game does not have this flag built into the client. What you are more or less observing is a placebo effect.

LOL I've been using the flag "GIMME-MORE-SPECIAL-SAUCE" it totally works dude, I've got so many extra frames now I might even have too many.... so use the additional flag NOT-TOO-MUCH-SAUCE and you should be sweet.

My PC on Win10 is just using whatever cores it needs, at any time. I have a bunch of videos open right now (just to test, this isn't my normal workload), and it's jumping to all cores even on power saver (25%) whenever it needs them. And this is a Haswell, not a Skylake, so it's not the hardware override. Maybe Win10 has disabled the core parking? Just something to think about for Win10 users - can anyone confirm or deny this one?
