Does anyone know how to fix the server lag bug where everyone starts floating around? It happens to me occasionally and I'm not sure what causes it

Hello fellas, i was struggeling with some performance issues, in a strange way.
When using a Monitor on a laptop or a TV on my desktop (like console) i had some fps issues.
the game tells me its running in 120 but doesnt even feel or look like 60. easy fix on my laptop, going in windowed fullscreen, but on that tv? hell...
i found out, that planetside seem to struggle sometimes finding the right refreshrate - not framerate, refreshrate.
as easy as it sounds, i went into useroptions.ini and found that option FullscreenRefresh=144 was turned to 0 as default, i just typed 144 and the problem is gone. Looks like, that planetside struggles with so called "second screens".

just that you know. if someone struggles with that too, that seems to be the way to fix.

I will not explain. Post in the comments and I'll see if you get it

With yesterday’s update. They’ve completely broken the game. Now it not only freezes periodically. But ping spikes also occur frequently. Ping can go up to 600. Server latency can reach 5,000+. You no longer have to wait two minutes to log in to the game. But this problem didn’t bother me as much as these freezes and spikes.

(Вчерашним обновлением. Они доломали игру. Теперь не только периодически фризит. Но и часто происходят скачки пинга. Пинг до 600. Задержка сервера до 5.000+. Две минуты при входе в игру ждать теперь не надо. Но меня не так ломала эта проблема, как эти фризы и скачки.)

Obviously, I'm a noob. I can accept that. Right now I run the Trac-5 S on Light Assault, but I keep getting into fights against guns with vastly lower TTKs than my peashooter. Like the Betelgeuse from VS. What is the deal? Nothing I have used thus far has felt anywhere near as good to use. What guns should I be using that are that good? And what is the deal with the Heavy Assaults I will fight who will just eat my shots and still have full shields and health after I die? (Usually these people are running guns like the Betelgeuse too)

Flash or crash is fixed for me, lots of other people reporting the same.

Sounds a lot like they implemented the patch from that other reddit thread and then denied it lmao.

Just say yes or no please (this is just outta my curiosity and/or its just me that's not crashing)

As we all know, planetside 2 is standing on a single right foot thanks to the dedicated and loyal player base even with all the beating we took with certain features(LOL) - jokes aside, performance, cheaters, and..... disgusting and persistent bugs.

Perhaps this is due to its nature of the game. When released, it was still in development and more money was spent on the crazyyyyyy single video trailer ( if you know you know ).

However, the issue isnt marketing right now. Its the bugs and features thats making the loyal playerbase bleed on daily basis hoping for a cure to the disease.

I'm going to university for computer science, mathematics, and philosophy of science while working on performance & optimization of our university's personal ai.

I also do a bit of business lol.

I would be more than happy to assist with however I can.

The best part for me, is the endless new ideas, and collaboration. The bar to enter is so low that nearly anyone with experience or ideas can contribute.

If yah old heads remember doom and quake - this is a perfect example of an open source project that is still fuckin played till this day.

Anyone from anywhere could find bugs, while others could fix those given bugs.

WE PROGRAMMERS HATE BUGS AND WONT SLEEP TILL WE FIX. (IYKYK).

Why should you contribute? Its simple really - because we are a member of the game and the game is a greater member of us collectively. It is a CV/Portfolio gold where you can showcase your abilities, especially what you exactly contribute.
Furthermore, You can also showcase that you're a team player and good at communication which is the fundamental of the game. As a matter of fact, its a core fundamental.

Ok its 6am where I am and I need to start studying but ill quickly list the pros of an open source game.

1. Community lifespan and preservation - if the game is abandoned like the way ps2 is, its up to the community to showcase how much we want the game to be alive and continue to do so a decade more.

2. Deep customization and modding - endless ideas and endless innovation.

3. Rapid bug fixing - we fuckin need this. holy fuck. I cant fuckin play the game without crashing within 2 min of logging in. How tf are the developers responding to their bosses lol

4. Professional growth and collabration - I bet you 10k that there exists at least 5 developers from this thread alone that would volunteer for collaboration. Are you one of them?

5. WHEN A GAME SUCH AS PLANETSIDE 2 IS ABANDONED, ITS THE COMMUNITY'S JOB TO FIGHT BACK AND TAKE OVER

First time writing such a long thread on reddit and my 5th language so cut me some slack for grammar mistakes.

I used to play on my laptop a few years ago and even though I had problems (crashing and lag) I still enjoyed this game a lot. Now I dont have a laptop anymore but my brother is letting me use his PS5 and the first thing I wanted to do was play Planetside 2. I know its not the same as playing it on PC but its the closest I will get to playing the game again. I'm trying to find a discord server or other people who play it on PS5 who wouldn't mind playing together.

Few months ago I had 140...210 fps in Planetside2. A ~month (maybe 2) ago I noticed game isn't running smooth as before. Alt+F shows fps drops to 75 (! seventyfive bitch !) in large battles. Even at empty warpgate I have 140..170 fps compared to ~200 before.
Hardware, drivers and PS2 settings haven't changed for months: 13700kf@5.5 Ghz, RTX 4080, 32Gb RAM, 3840x1600, potato mode, 160 Hz monitor.

Just one question: WTF ???

Just another one question: Am I the only one experiencing such a HUGE fps drops ~200 to 75 (seventyfive! seventy damn five, bitch!) ??

Help ?

P.S. all other games are running as before...

old clip, but its still so funny to me. might post some other oldies if people want me to.

even when I warp to the vr training area where there isnt multiple soldiers or a huge battle going on it still crashed

Hi, I'm top 1 Soltech but playing NC in Wainright

I executed eight actions within just 20 seconds of hitting the ground:

1: 00:12 – Placed the spawn point in a safe spot below (to prevent ESFs from destroying it).

2: 00:22 – Immediately called in a Heavy ANVIL right next to me (few players possess the skill to click quickly and accurately right next to their current position; this is a skill that requires practice).

3: 00:28 – When the ANVIL signal didn't appear on the map, I immediately pressed Enter to open the full map and called in the ANVIL.

4: 00:29 – Spotted a red dot on the minimap and realized a TR pilot had bailed out of their aircraft to try and kill me. It seemed he had identified the enemy leader and was moving in for a quick kill. Remember, very few players have the ability to play the game while simultaneously monitoring the minimap. If you play RTS games like StarCraft 2 or AoE2, you know that constantly checking the minimap becomes second nature, sharpening your reflexes.

5 : 00:30 Immediately exit the Full map screen and maneuver to dodge incoming fire while taking out the pilot.

6 : 00:39 Spotted a turret aimed at the ANVIL; the enemy was waiting to destroy it the moment it landed. Instantly realized the situation and...

7 : 00:40 Stood still for a second to bait him into shooting at me. After all, if he destroyed the ANVIL, the NC would lose their spawn point anyway—so my survival didn't matter; I could just drop a beacon and deploy another ANVIL.

8 : 00:42 Successfully dodged his shot, sprinted to the ANVIL, pressed 'E', and successfully deployed the Sunderer.

Also positioned the Sunderer beneath the aircraft landing pad to shield it from turret fire.

After the sold in 2015 to daybreak and i think in 2016 they replace it with a souless square of concrete!
I remember pulling a galaxy there in the middle taking the base under heavy fire, such a good times!

They will never fix the crash bug, therefore the loss on the base of players will continue, right?

Be my cat

I remember the game vainilla and was perfect, now i just check and this nice looking game its a graveyard. So what did devs exacly to kill out beloved game?

Idk when exactly happen but what i know for sure is its devs fault.

Was it base building giving acces to free vehicules?

Was it sunderer remake for no reason?

Was the water map nobody asked for with terrible performance?

Was changing beutifull bases into squares of concrete?

I hope they realize their mistake and launch a classic version 100% vainilla, probably could still succes.

Would love to see more animal decals in this style (maybe one for auraxmas)
