Really want to thank the PGI team for this patch today. We have had players who have not been able to play but after today's patch are able to play better than ever before. All of our team mates are seeing a 10 to 20 FPS rate increase along with being able to hit light mechs better than ever. The start up animation is sweet to boot!!

Thanks Dev's!!

Did those users lose the FPS from the last two patches?

My frame rate has tanked in the last two patches, so I am praying this one fixes FPS problems, instead of adding more. I cant take another performance hit, the game will literally be unplayable...

This on a box that I play pretty much every game at full settings at full rez.

If you guys say so...

Awesome news!

This is pretty much the best patch so far. It can only go downhill from here.

Ugh... 3 hours til I get home.... Want to see startup sequence... Someone put it on YouTube! Now!

I'm in the same boat, unfortunately.

Was testing lasers against a circle strafing Centurion at speed and I was able to hit individual parts of the cent by aiming directly at them. No ghost shooting required!

Fingers crossed this keeps up!

Heh..FPS worse this patch, considerably worse.

...and you thought they knew what they were doing?...

[ferranis]

Hm, the game feels different when you actually can hit something.

But the fanbois love this patch, that's all that matters to PGI.

Haven't you left yet? As far as I can tell you serve no useful purpose but to recycle carbon dioxide.

[Dikaiosyne26]

This patch is smooth... seems like a lot of polish got put on the game.

Thanks!

In terms of raw FPS no, worse running a 2500k@ 4.5ghz with a 4GB GTX 670 FTW, 8GB DDR3 1600Mhz, pre patch i would never go below 50FPS and 99% of the time it would be between 55-60FPS.

Already in 3 games i have played since patch i have seen far more dips into 40's and even mid 30's.

Gonna reinstall tomorrow see if something got messed up, ping wise, that has been higher in the last 2 weeks but that is not necessarily the game.

I believe I can fly... I believe I can touch the sky, I think about BigJim everyday, i stole his cookies, and ran away.... +1 for patch.
