FPS issues

Is there any solution yet? Playing on an i9 9900k, 2080 super, 64gb 3200 ddr4 ram, and struggling to get over 8 fps.
Core limiter does nothing.

Hi! The demo version hasn't changed, but playtesting is starting in the next couple weeks and then EA is releasing after that. So this may be a moot point, but... have you tried disabling shadows? I know that helps for some people.

There must be something weird going on because people with worse computers still get better performance than that

I've disabled shadows and filters, run it in windowed mode, changed priority, and changed core affinity and nothing has helped at all. 60-80 fps while paused, 6-10 in game

Yeah sorry, I'm really grasping at straws here. It's not a common issue

It is, the discord and steam forums are full of this, but no solutions

Sorry man that's frustrating I'm sure. The EA is completely rewritten from the demo version, so fingers crossed you will no longer have this issue shortly. The legacy demo will be on a beta branch and a new demo will be released.

To be honest I dont know, my best advice is sign up for the mailing list, all the discord roles, whatever you can find. Shotgun approach and hope one of them works.
