Game still looks good even on lowest settings, im not on a 3060 (actually a generation lower) and i still run it on good FPS
but i do have a strong CPU and i use Nvidia DLSS
if you use DLSS (need a card that supports it) you run the game fine
i am never using upscaling crap no thanks
there is no way anything can run this game in 4k/120, you must be lying
So I made some tests.
Difference between low and high settings is not really big on my system.
Only in fights it can dip to 30 FPS or something.
But I noticed something weird.
I have VSync off, frame limit unlimited.
I compared in the hub ā¦ just looking the same direction:
So, I put everything on high and 1080p.
My CPU usage was around 70% or something.
GPU usage was around 50-60%.
I had petty constant 60 FPS.
Then I put it on high and 1440p.
My CPU usage went up a bit to around 80%.
My GPU usage went up to 85-95%.
But I still had pretty constant 60 FPS.
I watched my CPU and GPU usage in a mission and Iām pretty sure half the time the overall usage is around 50-70%.
It feels like there is a frame limit somewhere in the rendering pipeline that shouldnāt be there.
It feels like that frame limit is 60.
It kinda feels like that frame limit is applied before some other stuff is actually rendered, lowering the target FPS below 60.
Could it be that VSync is always on for some reason?
The way certain VSync implementation work if it canāt handle the 60 FPS it would dip down to the next level which would be 30 I guess.
If the CPU and GPU usage differ on different resolutions but the FPS stay the same there must be a frame limit somewhere.
Or maybe the game performance is tied to a server tick rate?
Iāve got a GTX 1080 with 32 GB of ram, SSD, and I forget what the specs are on my AMD CPU. But the CUP is from like 4 or 5 years ago. I get about 40-50 FPS on intense engagements. 50-60 when just chilling or sitting in the morning star. I run on the lowest settings (it still looks great tbh)
yeah old i7-6700k and a 1080 , there were a couple of missions in the first two days of beta that lagged but they seem to have been removed , in really big engagements i do notice it get unsmooth but its always playable and outside of those stress moments its smooth.
it seems more often than not those with issues have a 30 or 40 series. ray tracing or dlss maybe?
I completely endorse. Please fatshark: implement the recent version of FSR (2.2) and use DXR-compatibel RT so all of your paying customers may use RT. The game deserves it. Thank you in advance.
I got a 3070 and while I had a decent 100-120 fps during downtime, it could drop down to 60-80 during hordes. I still experienced sudden crashes. Didnāt crash nearly as much as I got disconnected from server issues cause it sure as hell aināt my 500/500 fiber internet over cable.
Similiar performance here, playing on 2550x1440.
100ish FPS without anything going on
Dips down to even 45 when itās a lot of stuff going on
There is no frame rate limit, if your gpu is not reaching near 100% then you have a cpu bottleneck which is your own issue because my gpu usage reaches near 100%.
I can do 1080p, custom high settings, 150 fps
cpu usage is not high, gpu usage is high, reducing graphics settings barely improves the fame rate so there is a cpu bottleneck at 1080p even with a new cpu. I think Vermintide has the same problem and is cpu limited at normal resolutions. I think fatshark has no idea how to optimize for cpu properly. It does not matter how many threads you allow the game to use, it will not actually use them.
The optimization is still garbage and needs improvement. It should not require a high end pc just to run this game well (120+ fps) at 1080p. That makes this game not worth playing for anyone without a high end pc.
