I figured I'd post something positive regarding game performance, since I have been reading a lot of threads from people saying their performance has gotten worse patch to patch.
I started playing this game back around the beginning of the month, and I have a Macbook Pro (2012) so I installed windows on it to play it with a friend of mine. I can play most games without any performance issues (I used to have a gaming PC I built but sold it, so I am used to getting good performance) but for some reason this game ran like ****.
I noticed the FPS would drop down to around 10-15 whenever I would be facing in a direction that had a great viewable distance (like across the water, or over a valley). Since the 2nd to last patch, though, my FPS has been very steady and I am around 40 fps constantly, and I even can run the game on my 27" display (which is obviously a much higher resolution) and still maintain those frames.
I am wondering if the patch notes about them recoding the level .pak files to reduce their size may have influenced this change in performance? Whatever the cause, I glad because now the game is playable.
*Just to clarify, no I didn't buy a Macbook for gaming, it's for school. I'm just in transition to a new gaming computer I am building.
Anyways, I figured I'd bring my exerience to the community, hopefully there are others who have had the same experience.
Cheers.
P.S. I was glad the camo spec came out yesterday because I could finally give my mech a paint job worthy of his name. Check it out.
