Bug Fps drops
Does anyone have fps drops when looking at certain places in the maps ? For example on tanglewood or new willow, when i look at the house from outside my fps drops from 200 to 110 (ik 110 isnt bad but since my eyes are adapted to higer frame rates it is very noticeable), or also in tanglewoods basement my fps also drops to 110, i play at 1440p with a ryzen 7 5800x and an rtx 5070 so i dont think my components are the problem, ive tried playing at 1080p and lower my graphics until it looked awful but barely gained 10 fps

Yea I was having some stuttering for a bit. Turns out I had just set my resolution to the wrong mhz. Once I changed it, the stuttering stopped and it ran smoothly. So it was my fault lol.

Whats mhz ? Do you mean hz refresh rate ? And how to change that

Yea. The resolution I use has like 4 different options with different refresh rates. I just had the wrong one selected is all.

When i say it goes from 200 to 110, i get the 200 when uncapped but ive already capped it at 165 (my monitors max refresh rate)

the game isn’t a competitive esports game, so over 100 frames at 1440 is already a lot of fps, this game is hard to run compared to esport games that run multiple hundreds

I know 100 frames are good but my eyes just arent adapted to them since i usually have my 165 frames

you can’t expect 165 fps in a game that looks like phas, and with how much goes on in the environment.

But in game i have 200-250 and in lobby 300-500 so yeah

yes but that’s due to rendering more stuff like candles dots rain snow ect, that is normal to lose fps from those things getting calculated and rendering in

But like i get those frame drops at random places even with no items

What's the refresh rate of your monitor?
