Anyone else having issues on 64 player servers?? The lag gets really bad and my frames take a beating.
It also seems like this game wasn't meant for 64 players. I find with a full 64 player server it tends to turn into a run n' gun match.
I'll be sticking to 30 - 50 player servers from now on - better gameplay ;)

it all depends on what is powering the server.

64 players means the server is making a ton of calculations in movement, and weapons fire.


Not to mention that even if you can see the player, He is taking up performance on your computer. Which is why people complain about poor performance.

They have a decent rig, but are attempting to run it on a 64 player server, and wonder why their FPS is taking a beating, even though it runs fine in singleplayer.

It depends on a server. No big problems here.

Some clans are looking at this. 64 bit servers can be fun. We have several. But you cannot run them well on just any server platform. Admins need to know this. It takes an advanced processor to really run one well. Don't know about others, but we are going to reduce play slots on some of ours to the 40~50 range to deal with the issue.
Some 64s will remain. On certain maps, I think 64 players could be stellar.

64 and slow??? thought that this game could have up to 128?

Yeah right......


Anyway, some maps aren't bad for 64 players while others are way too small and congested. Overall I feel 64 players is just way too much for this game.

Huh VVV and TAT on Apartments map with 64 players no lag at all,best 2 servers so far,I can tell that the servers are made out of good quality CPU's.

FPS start at 60-90 FPS,but then after 10 min gameplay drops to 40-60 FPS mostly all on high and Ultra,its weird that after 10 min of gameplay the GPU usage goes down from 70% to 40-50% and offcourse FPS drops good 30-40%.....Seems like some kind of missunderstanding between the game/CPU/GPU....
