3.14 Ultimatum Performance Issues - Stuttering & Low FPS
|
Hello people,
Since Ultimatum league update I'm getting low on fps most of the time and feels like my pc is having a hard time running the game. It was quite shiny back in 3.13. Wondering if anyone else is having the same issue. GPU: RTX 2070 CPU: i7 9700K Cheers. Last bumped on Jun 10, 2021, 10:59:46 AM

My PC is kinda potatoey so it's not much of a surprise that I have performance issues :(
However, compared to 3.13, it's a lot worse, up to the point where some of the content is unplayable for me (i.e. freeze for 3 sec -> I'm dead) These are the worst: * Ultimatum trials (when opening is worse, but also huge lag for the entire duration) * Drox spawning on maps (other conqs are fine-ish, but when he appears it's always a huge FPS drop) * Metamorph spawning Delirium is bad too, but not much worse than 3.13 Last edited by Felix44#4475 on Apr 19, 2021, 8:08:20 PM

Same here; pc isn't great but 3.13 was, at least for the first 7-8 weeks, very playable. 3.14 has been rough so far. Ultimatum encounters are unplayable (start encounter, freeze for 3-4 seconds, unfreeze to death screen). Delirium, ritual, metamorph, etc all seem significantly worse than they were in 3.13 (big steady drops in frames, periodic 2-3 second freezes)
Here's hoping they can fix whatever changed between the middle of 3.13 and now. Passing on all these encounters due to near unplayable performance is sort of disappointing. |

" If you have problems with that stuff, then I should uninstall already lol |

" downgrade all specs by one generation, however i have the same issues (with last league playable at 60 FPS constant) , i also noticed constant rendering and the disappearance of shader folders, there are no folders being created on render engine swap on playing on nothing, game is constantly rendering since the new mini patch. Also it is accustomed that every new league we get shit performance because they don't optimize their content. |

since 3.14 my screen is literally freezing when i enter the delirium mechanic and i am using a rtx 3090 8x 5ghz 9900k on a 980pro m.2 32gb 3800mhz ddr4 ram
there is literally no bottleneck on my end. |

same this side
pc specs: 1080TI overclocked i7-8700k overclocked to 4.6 on all cores 32Gb 3400 cl14 m.2 getting massive fps drops tried latest gpu drivers, windows updates vulcan API seems to help but it sluggish to load textures and with a arc build get really bad fps |

Had the same problem (i7, 16 GB, 2700SUPER, m.2).
Just tried to disable (power off) my second monitor and was surprised that all of the above mentioned problems were gone. Maybe it helps you too, give it a try! |

The performance is night and day from 3.13 to 3.14 for me.
3.14 is simply unplayable at the level I will need to play to fight bosses. FPS drops below 1 every time I start an ultimatum encounter. Load times for going back to town are 15-30 seconds from 5-10 at the most last league. I've downgraded every graphics option, even edited the game's config file to remove shadows and sound effects - which is pathetic. 800x600 resolution gives me the same fps crashes any time something new comes on screen. My CPU is at 100% utilization during the fps drops. RAM hard faults/sec is fine, GPU is barely breaking a sweat. If my rig was fine 2 literal weeks ago playing the same game, it should be fine now. What the heck did you do GGG? I changed to Vulcan from DX11 which gave marginal fps boost in exchange for taking away half the textures on screen. So I can fight Sirus at 5 fps or 15 fps without seeing his attack textures half the time. This is embarrassing. |
