Gameplay Help and Discussion - HOW TO: Increase FPS/Lag Less - Forum

" newman92 wrote: I love how the devs/developers of this game never even told us about this, pretty pathetic. Probably because it really screws the graphics and makes very little difference in group play. I ran this for a while and the poor graphics was not worth the hardly noticeable increase in FPS. In fact I didn't notice any increase in FPS in full group play. .	Posted by Altadoc on Mar 18, 2013, 4:51:42 PM Quote this Post
thanks alot OP! i dont see how its pathetic tho lol seeing how it looks :P thats an option you should have to look for imo, theyll make an official low quality at some point im sure. Just take a look at LoL, they optimized it over the time and even on lowest quality it looks decent and can run on almost anything.	Posted by Bordaf on Mar 18, 2013, 4:58:26 PM Quote this Post

4 is painful to actually play with but it did remove almost all lag I had. I felt like watching Reboot oddly.	Posted by JonahDoom on Mar 18, 2013, 5:11:14 PM Quote this Post

I havea reasonably good system, couple years old now but i can run skyrim at max settings at 60 fps do well in most other games at max settings but this one really does grind down the FPS when theres a lot on screen. Now it doesnt matter too much what is on screen it seems, just the quantity. items, corpses, fireballs, zombies, lightning arrows everything seems to contribute somewhat equally.

can anyone confirm if the "texture_quality=0" makes the quality better than "texture_quality=1" IGN: Nostaigia (Nostalgia) ~~~ IF I WIN A BID OR SOMETHING, PLEASE LET ME KNOW BY LEAVING ME A PM ON THE FORUM IF I'M NOT ONLINE. ~~~	Posted by DuyPham on Mar 19, 2013, 4:50:46 AM Quote this Post
