[Info] Horrible performance / optimisation.

[lods of emone]

EDIT: latest patch fixed performance for me, disregard this thread.

more or less same specs and.......same problem, plus stuttering here

 

[CuriousOrange]

Just upgraded my 4850 to a 6870. The difference in The Witcher 2 and a few other games I've tried is incredible. I've gone from unplayable in lots of games to maxing them out at high framerates.

However, RO2 has gone from playable at medium settings to unplayable at anything. Before I was getting a more stable framerate, but a lower one. Around 40fps. Now I'm getting between 80 and 20 and it's unplayable. I haven't tried tweaking it all that much so I will have a go later.

This is the worst performing game on my system.

I have an i7 2600 at 4.8gHz, 8gb ram, 3way SLI of GTX580 3gb cards.

I get between 39-70 FPS normally, with the dips to the 30's quite frequent, as well as stutters in the sound that cause it to stutter to 0 FPS.

If an almost 5 gHz CPU and 3 GTX580's can't get good FPS in this game I'm starting to wonder if the people who say "games working fine for me!" are just so used to crappy framerates on their low-end systems that they think it's fine.

I've had this piece of garbage since release and have only got 2 hours in game time, and all of those 2 hours were spent testing video settings and config file tweaks in efforts to get playable settings.

THanks for the fun Tripwire, time for BF3 tonight and I can hopefully put this RO2 mess behind me and forget about your broken game. (enjoy my non-refundable $50 though)

OS- Windows 7 64Bit
CPU- Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 @ 3GHz
GPU- NVidia GeForce GTX 550Ti, ~2748Mb
RAM- 4096Mb
FPS- ~50
Graph. settings- High

I have been wondering how some low to high end PCs do work with RO2 and some great PCs just don't work well. All I get is just slight stuttering for few seconds after map has loaded and spawning for first time.

I have a lower end system (mid-range to high end) than yours (which is very high end) with AMD hardware (6 core with 6770), but it doesnt run well on certain maps on medium/high. Poor TWI slaving on fixing this game.

 

[Stjitalurv]

Im new on this game, and i dont have a very good computer. Im at work and dont remember exactly what computer i have. But its a amd quadcore(something something), with nvidia geforce 8800GTS 512 (i think its 512mb). And 2 gig ram ddr3 i think. And i have win xp pro sp3.

I bought the game through steam and when i first tried it it worked ok, but with a little lag, not much but the mouse felt slow and it lagged a little at medium settings.

So i thought, maybe if i get the latest drivers it will run smooth as mamas milk, but it went from "ok" to barely playable with the new drivers and on lowest graphics...

So i went back to old drivers and it got better again.

Im gonna try more stuff and get fraps running but i thought i should share this theory that new drivers can cause trouble.

I have had this problem before with other games that my old drivers works better than the latest.

What I'm not understanding is why TWI has failed to release an update since September regarding performance, all I'm seeing is gameplay changes. Honestly, I'd rather get good performance before any gameplay bugs are fixed. Yes, I have a med-low end PC (Phenom X4 1.8 GHz quad, 9800 GT, 5 GB RAM, Vista 64 bit) but I should be able to play the game on at least medium with a good fps, instead I'm getting anywhere from 20-60 (mainly in the 30's though). Spartanovka runs the best, but it still has plenty of fps drops. I'd really love to see this game optimized better.

 

[Hjanne]

This game sure has some issues in this department however i also have a GTX 570 and i recently installed the new stable 285.62 drivers for it and the game now runs alot more stable. I can recommend nvidia users to try these drivers out.

My bad I meant October, lol. Being hungry doesn't help in this case

GTX 570/i5 2500k here,

game runs like garbage.

i7 965XE, GTX470 here, game runs great

i7 950, GTX 460 1Gb, game runs like crap with >40 players on medium settings...

 

[fruitbat]

F.W.T.W. - i5 2500k @ 4.0, 8gb, asus 8p67p & gtx550ti

vanilla install of the game, no tweaks etc.

All settings on ultra
shadows on high
no bloom or motion blur
1280 x 960

only other software running is gamebooster

Never seems to dip under 60fps on fraps, very occasional tiny stutter, never enough to be game breaking or cause death.

edited to say: usually playing on PARA/Brothers servers so fairly high player counts & a range of maps

That is a VERY low resolution.

 

[Machete234]

I got a MINIMUM of 36 FPS, a maximum of 90, and 61.06 was the average (even this is skewed because of a rouge 102 framerate at the beginning). That is just pathetic. There has to be a major issue with CPU / GPU utilisation.

Spoiler!

fps 90 89 83 69 64 63 60 64 64 64 62 69 63 66 66 61 62 55 52 57 63 64 61 51 56 58 70 80 73 77 86 83 60 57 53 53 59 65 64 56 61 75 63 64 52 42 47 59 56 53 68 70 70 73 62 64 59 59 59 59 63 58 59 54 48 50 51 56 55 56 59 59 62 64 62 54 56 57 62 64 59 58 60 65 56 55 54 59 57 54 55 52 54 55 49 51 53 54 57 56 58 62 61 62 53 54 56 65 68 59 68 60 62 67 64 65 63 62 67 69 58 63 52 53 52 55 62 69 63 61 62 60 59 60 62 70 82 81 82 86 82 77 58 61 63 60 52 49 53 52 55 53 53 53 54 54 53 49 55 56 52 52 53 50 52 49 50 55 60 58 65 62 59 59 56 58 56 55 57 62 66 62 62 64 67 60 55 59 62 63 60 61 56 50 49 52 65 64 62 67 65 62 47 57 60 58 55 53 62 63 67 54 54 59 57 60 60 59 72 79 72 75 80 80 73 69

Did you try the smoothing?
So you cap at 62 fps and for min smoothed fps you try 40 fps instead of 22.

 

[LordSteve]

Dont cry.
If you have fps from 90 to 36

Yesterday i played some missions in the offline campaign. If there
are many bots in the game the stuttering begins.
