I have KF since the launch, but only for now i'm playing it for serious with my friends.

Now all o us have perks lv5 or 6 and we play almost ever on HoE.

But for our surprise, the performance is very bad if it compared with Hard difficulty. A lot of FPS drops, specially when you look for a local with a lot of zeds (even if you can't see them).

Probably caused by a better and more numerous IA. I get that, makes sense. But is HORRIBLE...

Is there a workaround or a fix? Even with very low configuration, drops or bad performance still happens.

I think I have a decent PC (I5 + AMD 285) and this is not my problem, since I can play a lot of titles very well at 60FPS 99% of the time.

What's the set up? Server, map, any muts, etc. I've never had any problem with any perf issues from changing difficulty before.

And there's also a max total of 32 zeds on the map and I'm pretty sure that independent of difficulty. Pretty sure the AI doesn't change but just stats about the zeds (health, speed, spawn rate, etc, other than rage mechanics changing a litte).

Sometimes KF will just run bad on your pc, for no apparent reason, I get that too.

I don't know, try to play on maps where zeds don't get too much crowded, like west london or mountain pass

Do a malware and P.U.P cleaning on your computer, that's what increased the performance for me. As for things not rendering it may be an affect of your GPU dying or overheating.
