HUGE FPS drop after the update

(rana) #1

Well on every lowest graphics and 800 resolution I was getting 50-100 fps before, but now after this new update I hardly get 40 fps its 30 fps avg on 640 resolution… Why is this? None of the graphics were improved so? Is this some sort of bug or, its time that I need forget about dirty bomb until I find a job and make a new pc.

I think latest update defaults a lot of post processes on, I found turning them off helped

How do I turn them off? Can we use player cfgs yet? if so is there any high fps cfgs?

This problem has many players …toomic tells me that in the next update a function to disable the post processing is available…

I hope for us all that this comes very quickly in the next days…

I’m on an i7 3770k, 16GB RAM and a 2GB GTX660 and currently get 170-200 in-game. Pre-patch I was getting 333fps reguarly (dropping to 290 occasionally).

I dont know if you get the 125 fps on high settings with your planned rig. On my Rig, I get 90-125 fps and I have set ingame everything to low.

Before the update I got 160-200 fps (ingame all set to low)

Same here, i have i7, 660gtx, and 6gb ram, have 90-125fps on low settings.

i7 4770 + GTX460 + 16GB RAM, 120-140fps prior to patch, 70-80 now (all low settings) + laggy random tracking again :(.

Why do you want 125 FPS so badly? DB ain’t no id Tech game.

(rana) #16

What do you mean its not id Tech game? Also is it just the game that has several bugs causing people to get low fps or ?

(Volcano) #17

im getting around 140fps this patch, from 250fps. 40fps if im recording

I525k 4.2ghz, 8gbram, gtx 670

In idTech locking your FPS to 43, 76, 125 or 333 allowed you to perform trickjumps that were impossible at other FPS’s.
