Anno 1800 Late Game FPS Drop

[CaptainCeausescu]

When I take a closer look at my biggest city my FPS drop to 25 sometimes even to 20. It is really frustrating.
I have RTX 3080, 32 GB RAM 3600MHZ, Intel Core i7-10700K and play on 3440x1440 Monitor.

The game should be running smoothly I guess. Did u experience such case? What may be the problem?

I have a 2080s and never had this problem with cities up to 15K investors, not sure if you have more but if you don't it's probably some kind of bug or glitch

I have much less investors. I checked and GPU and CPU are not running at full load

Hey CaptainCeausescu,

Thank you for reaching out, sorry to hear that you are encountering FPS drops in game despite having a good system.

To rule out some common causes would it be possible to please try the following steps?

• Install Ubisoft Connect and the game on the same drive as your OS
• End unnecessary background processes via Task Manager
• All of the troubleshooting steps in this article: https://ubi.li/e4DRO

Should this then persist, can I check if you have any background apps open and if this persists if you close them?

Many thanks

thx for your reply, I did all the steps and nothing worked. I put the crowd setings to low and fps finally get higher. now its around 30-40 in the worst moments and the game is playable.
It seems that the single core cpu speed might be the bottleneck once there are a lot of things moving and interacting.

Thanks for letting us know, CaptainCeausescu.

Late game progress, with lots of buildings, production and traffic (land and sea) will be affected by CPU processing power. The more cores and core speed the better the performance will be.

It can only be offset by lowering some in-game settings.
