Noticable performance degredation with latest update (Forsburn + KO Effect)#376

After playing on the latest update, I’ve noticed huge performance issues that did not exist just a few days ago. I’m having large persistent framedrops throughout the match and big drops on large hits and ‘purple’ screen effects. Additionally, two Forsburns on screen is a performing HORRIBLY, which was not a problem in the past.

The annotated video linked below should hopefully show it off. I know it might be hard to guage using a 60fps rendered video but the slowdowns are frequent and very noticeable. I play the game at over 200+ FPS so when the framerate drops significantly, it feels terrible. You should at least be able to notice the KO screen drops.

i’ve been noticing far worse load times and occasional stutters since slade released, didn’t have them before

can confirm, oddly i cannot replicate this offline, only when playing online

if its only online then it is most likely a CPU bottle neck caused by roll back netcode. Maybe they changed something there.

im having bad perfomance issues on all the cast. i just played a session and niether of us played fors and it was really bad. i usually play at 120 and it was dropping to 80

I was having crazy frame drops yesterday evening too which historically really never happened

I thought I was the only one, the same thing happens to me, hope they fix it soon.

neither of my machines can run the game at this point at even 60 fps, sad.
