This shouldn't have happened.... what have you done to cut framerate in half? having a 3 gig video card on my end, this shouldn't be possible. 30 FPS is harder to play in than a smooth 60 FPS....

[Mark Brandhauber]

I'm getting hugely inconsistant framerates sometimes i'm the 40s sometimes the teens.

[JDH4mm3r]

frame rates are as same as CW - there has been a 50% drop in framerates since previous patch.

Game lobby was 60 FPS before this patch. FPS are now at 30.
I used to have 60 FPS on non CW maps and 40-50 on CW maps. both are now 30 FPS.

This game should be playable on ANY high end video card + CPU combo and yet with a core i5 and a radeon 7950HD - i don't wanna have to upgrade again after building this comp 2 years ago >.<

My frames tripled on most maps, doubled on everything else. I am extremely happy.

On Frozen City I now have about 40% of my previous FPS with identical settings. (about 20-25 instead of 60-70.) What happened? I was so happy about my Xeon CPU because I could play MWO very smoothly compared to my old Core2Duo. Now my FPS are nearly as low as they were with my Core2Duo.

On top of that, I have a terrible delay between input (e.g. mouse movement) and output (rendered image) both in my mechlab and ingame.

I will test other maps tomorrow. But it certainly won't be fun.

Strange, this patch pretty much fixed my framerate issues in CW thus far. I need to do more testing. What are the details of the framerate fix they did?

[NUK3]

I'd also be interested in hearing a few technical details.

As for the very different patch effects: Maybe the changes affect different DirectX versions differently?

[ZenFool]

It was a HUD coding change. They took the very complicated hud coding and simplified it to decrease cpu strain.

[Aiden Skye]

Getting a lot better FPS here. CW is actually playable now.

[Kiiyor]

My frames doubled.

[Cyborne Elemental]

Yeah I'm getting really good FPS.

Getting alot better high average than I was before.

Staying steady right around 90+
very rarely drops below 70, and thats when chaos is unleashed.

Pretty nice if you ask me.

[Martin Oberhofer]

would be more usefull if you could post your rigs too
maybe the game is underperforming on AMD now?
maybe HT s broken for it
maybe more than 3GB of Sysram are allocated

post your systems please

2500k slight overclock, 7870oc, low settings, 1920x1200, v-sync

went from 25-45 fps to 38-60

the improvements are bigger though because at 38-60 I am at medium texture and medium objects now.

Im now running @ a constant 60 FPS. Nothing slows it down , even by 1 frame.

Weird...

Running i5 2500k
8gb RAM
GTX 660 Ti

[LameoveR]

FPS just really increased. Got 40-60 now instead of 24-50 before.

[EvilCow]

I got a very significant improvement in framerate on my low end PC. If it is just an HUD optimization I find hard to believe that THIS patch could have made things worse for some.

This is PGI.....never assume.

I think those with issues should run repair tools, clear caches etc and try again.

[STEF_]

I have a fantastic fps improvement!
I wonder how this is possible: from 21 average to 35!!!!

I mean: 66% more!

PGI, THANKS A LOT!

edit: seriously: I'm just curious to know how they did it.
Only about the hud????

My framerate increased from 40 to 60.

[Troutmonkey]

In Game FPS - Still about 30FPS in combat, but now maxes out to 70+ when at the start of the match.
Mechlab FPS - Halved from 60 to 30FPS.
