Cheerio Players!

Since i started with MWO i always had 1 or 2 technical issues regarding my performance. It got the worst after the patch from the 4th March and then after the Patch on the 17th it now looks my problems are all completely solved and i can finally play MWO without any performance issues, and cause of the restart of the profile stats i have a positive kill/death-ratio and win/loss-ratio (not important, but nice to see).

Now that i fixed all the issues, i decided that i can drop in groups again with my Unit (36th dieron/Kurita/Germany), but it occured, that, when i drop in a premade group (it has always been 2-4 plays) my FPS go down to around 10-15 fps for around 2-3 Minutes (happens 1-2 times in each match). Usually i have around 20-25 fps (still not much, but it is more than enough for a good aiming and shooting).

When i leave the premade group and i am playing random PUG-Matches, the problem doesnt occur.

Does anybody of you guys have an issue like this and/or know how to solve that?

Best regards from Germany!
Sorry for the mistakes but here in the english forum are far more players, that increases the chances for finding a solution pretty much i hope!

You'll want to search the forums for user.cfg and video setting tweaks, like setting a framerate limit of 30.

You sound like your CPU is chocking, so you want Environment down to Low, and have Object Detail, Partials, and Shadows to not higher then Medium; You might also need to turn all the others down, too.

I have to say this is the first time I've heard of a change in FPS when in a group …

Hey,
a finally somebody answered! Yeah it is kond of weird...
I already turned everything down to the minimum and usually i can play very well, also i already did a few changes in the user.cfg and framerate limit is already 30.
I wrote a thread in the german forum too, but nobody knew any help yet. And also i wrote an email to the support, but no answer yet... maybe it is something different, but really, i was playing for around 2 hours on friday and 4 hours on saturday, and it occured just when i was playing as a premade... :/
Anyway, thank you!

It's hard to even begin to address such threads without a detailed, intricate list of the hardware in question …

Along side system information, what is different between PUG and Group play? What program(s) are you actively using during Group play that you are not using during PUG play.

If your using team speak make sure to run it as administrator and make sure that you are not using the overlay feature it has caused problems in the past with MWO.
