Frame rate improves on character death
Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2018 10:49 pm
During the Lord RVR test that happened in empire/chaos T2 today, there were so many players in the Order Lord room that my game became a slide show. Like 5-7fps it was hilariously bad, but this is normal for WAR even with a decent rig.
What was weird was as soon as I would die to the lord and the release screen popped up my framerate would return to normal 50-60fps. Everyone around me was still fighting, player models whacking about, Lord shouting at some poor lvl 28 healer who won't stop spamming group heals, everything you would think would cause the client to crap on frames. But no it ran smoothly. A few stutters here and there but still smooth for a game released in 08.
Then as soon as i got rezzed and was ready to go BAM slide show.
I just thought it was interesting, if this is already known or not relevant do what you will with the thread.
