Substantial optimisation coming soon™

Once I know more, I’ll let you know.

I was experiencing pretty serious but seemingly random FPS drops, where my performance would drop down to less than 10 FPS (I usually get 50-75 frames with occasional lower dips).

On a whim I disabled G-Sync (I have a g-sync enabled laptop) and I haven’t seen a single slow down. In fact, the performance overall seems a lot more stable and faster.

Not sure if that helps but maybe is a clue to what is going on?

Mostly in between lvls in Chaos Wastes. Where youre supposed to pick the next location. Often the ping goes up to 400 and stay there for a couple of minutes

Should we still post something here?

Had substantial fps drops everytime I used the coruscating staff, especially when casting multiplie times or hitting multiple enemies.
The same when getting stacks of nurgle’s curse. The problems accumulated, including eventually severe rubberbanding and random sounds missing, until I was completely unable to play - curiously, the CPU was strained, not the GPU. I force-quit and rejoined, whereupon the original problem was still there, but not as bad. One assumes it would get worse over time.

Many players have seen substantial improvements with the release of patch 4.4 but I appreciate some are still having problems. I’m closing this and creating a new post shortly, as a lot changed with 4.4 and I think it’s important to keep pre-4.4 and post-4.4 performance issues separated!
