20-30 FPS average in most areas? Seriously?

[Tamaster]

Before the "you run it on a potato" band:

GTX 1080
i7 4820K 3.7 Ghz
16GB RAM
SSD
850W PSU

I have all the latest drivers.

===

That said, this is ridiculous. I tried low resolutions like 800x600, i tried 1080p, 2K, 4K, lowest graphics, maxed graphics, nothing ever changes. In closed spaces framerate is 40-50 FPS most of the time, while in larger open spaces or larger dungeons gets as low as 30 even below 20 FPS.

This is not something that has to do with hardware, the game is faulted in performance and faulted for good. I mean, i am enjoying it and is a great game by all means, but these performance problems are really crippling.

Opinions?

People spend too much time worrying about FPS. This isn't a shooter. It doesn't matter.

Precisely

I wonder what people are getting on a 1060 (laptop).

Framerate matters in more than just shooters. It affects nearly every game genre. PoE2 isn't a game that needs a strict 144 FPS, but running at 10-15 FPS, where you can see the mouse jitter, and the character animations look like they've been pulled from Baldur's Gate with how stuttery they are?

Yeah that'll detract from the experience. And it can be especially frustrating when you're on a system that SHOULD be able to handle PoE2 without breaking a sweat.

Another person who downplays how much graphics processing a modern game using modern technologies uses. Sorry but MSAA, Ambient Occlusion , Complex water..etc uses just as much graphics power to render whether is being used for POE 2 or AC Origins. Your grahics card is not going to render the game easily and with no sweat at a jillion FPS.

My rig:

i5-3570 @ 3.4ghz

I do not have a FPS monitor running, but I have never experienced the issue you describe. If that is happening I understand the issue.

I have a 1050ti and run solid 60 with everything maxed out. Its not that demanding of a game, people just have conflicts elsewhere most of the time.

Well then obvioulsy you are not running the game with all the graphics techs turned on at high or ultra are you. If you where you would not be getting 60 FPS.

[wormicek5501]

similar issue here with gtx1060, i5-3570k, 16GB RAM

game runs like poop in the main citiy and the fort, fast mode makes it worse, sneaking makes it downright unplayable, no settings have major effect on this, not even the dynamic lighting.

[Hobocop]

Turning off Steam Overlay helped me a bit, but its definitely not running as smoothly as it should, not when games with equal or more demanding Recommended specs run like butter.

[malhavoc]

Have an R9 290, 24GB DDR3, Sandybridge CPU and 60+ FPS.

Edit: Should have mentioned, settings are High.

And you know why we spend too much time worrying about fps! It's cos the game is totally unplayable when it drops down to 15 fps in most fights. Before giving out your idiotic opinions try to understand what's everyone facing and why this post was created! Take the time to read people's issues before trolling .

[Chloé]

just got into a fight win lots of spells involved

8-13 fps

[Quake II]

Yeah I have similiar specs, the games performance is pretty abysmal. Still, the game is fantastic.

[Peggle]

Windowed mode seemed bugged for me, it’s on by default so turn it off and you might see an improvement

[hyperion]

I'm pretty sure I've never seen FPS below 60. Admittedly I don't have it turned on all of the time and don't pay attention all of the time. But when I have been paying attention, I've never seen it below 60 and that's at 4K. At 1080 it's in the mid 80s to mid 90s, with a 1080 ti.

The one problem I've seen is after the latest driver, I got screen tearing when scrolling the screen vertically, with a Gsync monitor. I actually had to turn Vsync on to stop that and I've never had to do that with this monitor for any game.

BTW, I only play games in full screen, same here.

Gsync tearing occurs when you drop below 40fps (dont recall exact number) or lower, at some point it stops working.
