If you have lag/connectivity issues making the game unplayable/annoying, post here and be counted.

Fixed my problems by using a VPN - hope GGG fixes this pretty soon.

I play with a solid 80-120 fps at all times depending on the area, 60 when im casting lightning strike and alot of units in front of me, 40 at the lowest in some areas with alot of rain and stuff (Docks). Just wondering what the deal is here. My fps will drop to 10-15 in some cases when all 6 party members are casting visually intense spells. (spells include Any Lightning Spell, AOE Fire spells, And POISON ARROW - the worst) Then right back up to 30-50 when we are on the move.

Textures on high, everything else off including shadows.

Windows 8 64bit
A6-4400m 2.7GHZ (up to 3.2ghz) dual core

6GB 800 MHz RAM

Not the best computer but on a game like this i expect at least a stable 30fps while i play. I have never had issues in any other game until now. I love this game very much but i will not be able to play for much longer if this continues. I play hardcore mode so in higher difficulties dropping below 20 fps is unacceptable. Please, if anyone from GGG knows of a fix, or if any players have noticed this as well, please give me your input. There is no way this game is so taxing on a system like this.

I would really like a post from GGG or a player who knows somewhat alot about this kind of stuff, to either tell me im out of luck, or if this is a known issue of optimization for spell effects... It is literally only in groups of 4 or more spamming certain spells.

I am sorry if this wasnt the place to post this, as i see its mostly connection issues. But i have unbearable FPS in this game with a group of players and i do not think i should with the setup i have posted. i hate to compare d3 to this but i never drop below 40 fps in that game no matter the settings and shit happening on my screen.

80-120, I don't believe you to be perfectly honest, not with that system(the graphic cards, even together, are very weak). What resolution are you running at? Also, 6gb? 2x1gb + 2x2gb or?. I would say you are lucky to get the results you have been getting, but if it is slower all of a sudden, maybe something can be done about it.

my pc: core i-5 760 4ghz

I get about 50 when it's crazy(without poison arrow, ice shot or lightning arrow/strike). I remember with a lot poison arrow clouds, burning ground and rain(increased duration and area of effect with my lvl 72 in closed beta), I got +-10fps. I have textures on medium(breaks on high), postprocessing off(breaks if on), antialiasing off(not worth it), anisotropic off(no reason), shadows off(breaks), vsync on(keeps fps down, and my card slightly colder), and resolution at 1920x1080.

But yes, most of the effects are ridiculous.
