Worst game optimization ever with new patch

New patch is amazing. So amazing, that it is impossible to play the POE no more. Optimization of the game with the new patch is sick!
My Intel i7-10750, 32GM of RAM, RTX 2070 Super is no more good enough to play in POE. As I was able to play before new patch - in POE in ultra graphic settings that now frame drops are so huge that is impossible to have any plesure from the game... and there no even any graphic improvement. Even when I have disabled Antialiasing, Shadows, etc. ... game animations slowing so much that the screen is almost freezing. My champ have already died 3 times becouse of this patch.

Is anyone testing patches before they will decide to release it or they are testing everything straight away - on us? Trully player friendly devs-community... :S

I'm just using a normal 2070 without any fps drops at all and only some visual bugs here and there.

Sure GGG messed up something somehow but people should also keep in mind that not a single game dev tests their patches on every single existing hardware especially a 4 year old spec lol.

Try to play around more with the changed settings, it helps quite a lot.

Before this dumb patch I was getting 165 fps easy. Now, I'm lucky if I hit 20 while mapping.

3900x, 3070, 32gb RAM, game's on an SSD. This patch has made the game unplayable.

It is very bad for me as well. I cannot play more than 1 map. Too much micro stutter hurt my eyes even at basic hideout (almost no decorations).

Yep i cannot play this game after last patch too, huge fps drops out of nowhere, more constantly on Ritual altars, and a lot of huuuuuuge glitches that make crucible rituals a disco dance ball of darkness like the dooms day coming when i approach crucible, this scared me, and the bad performance like 60fps drops to 30-15fps make me close the game for good, and wait for some response from ggg, what is happening, and what they borked about this last update!

The question is - Is the patch have any impact on POE graphic improvement? Defenitely not. POE does not look any better at all. If not - it seems that GGG devs artificially lowers hardware performance without no reason simulating that our PCs are too slow. Ofcourse this is not true. Before the patch all my settings have been set up to high/ultra. Now, to play, I have to lower everything to - low and even now by playing delirium and by opening the breach - screen is freezing.

Will we get any compensation for working as a game testers?

I'd say the odd visual flash during some content is more likely to be a shader cache thing and something that will fade as you play the game.

But i've never really had any of the issues people keep posting about or to the extent that some people experience.

As for testing, they could test on hundreds of configs and not see a problem, the thing that most "optimization" donkeys fail to understand is that when ANYTHING is released to the public any extensive testing in their office is dwarfed by the amount of player hours put into the game, let alone the absolute clusterfucks that are some peoples PC's

I have found out that is not about (at least not in every aspect) players PC performance but problem is about POE servers which does not able to take specific amount of players and in effect it lead to problems like game screen freezing.

I have changed internet connection speed from 20Mbits/sec to 200Mbits/sec and the game is working much better but still - game (in case of Delirium Mirror + Breaches) is freezing or turning off. However problem does not appear in late night or in the weekends at early mornings whic suggest that everything is about inefficient POE servers.

I have test it on many other games but problem is only with POE (my internet connection is always stable 190Mbits/sec with ping 7m.sec.). I have no idea why POE servers are trying to transfer so much data from/to players from/to server. Becouse of that probobly server is not able to take some much informations from all of those players.
