Hey all,

 

  My old PC was a piece of crap and I had to play WoWp on all the lowest settings to get 30fps (I thought that was the best I could manage).  But now, even with a new PC that is 4x better, it still only runs at 30fps.  I usually lower settings in games til I hit 60fps, but that seems to be impossible in this game.

 

  No matter what I do with my graphical settings, regardless of what PC it is on, it runs at between 25 - 35 FPS, usually 30.

 

  Anyone know why this is and what I may be doing wrong?  Happened on two PCs and two monitors, one 1920x1080 and one 1360x768.  Tried both SD and HD packages; no difference in FPS.

well... it doesn't have the best optimization. I regularly run 25-40 usually 25-30 and can go down to as low as 7. Yeah, I run the game on a 4 year old laptop, but it's not terrible... It can handle WoT 1.0 (released this year on a new engine) at high settings and do a constant 60fps. Every time this game updates and it defaults to the settings it thinks it should be at, it sets them to very high and trashes my fps... 

Until late summer i ran a stable 30-40 even with other windows open and 2 monitors, but recent patches have not been kind.

Any idea why we can't pull 60 FPS with this game?  are our computers not good enough or is it horribly optimized?  My new PC is a beast 6gb 1060 and 4.2ghz processor w/ 16gb ddr5

Badly optimized, they have said as much, and posted that they are working on improving framerates for people, especially during dogfights at some point in the last month.

A little while ago they released a patch that supposedly addressed optimization.  My fps immediately DECREASED.  Please, no more 'optimization'.  Even a bomber has limits.

[Bobby_Tables]

I skimped out on my most recent build and get frame rates better or at least equal to yours.  

 

The game is horribly optimized and seems to treat better performing hardware with contempt.  

 

Go figure, right?  The gaming engine sucks and I don't see them investing the money to replace/improve it because this title is not worthy of the effort.

 

However, if you play other games, I am sure you will see the benefits of your build.  This studio, however, is stuck in 2008.

What kind of PC (cpu, gpu ..) does the average Russian gamer use ?? That's their most important market I guess ...

[hamhockjones]

 They are using Windows 95 I think....

[Captain_Underpants53]

On Apple IIc's.

 

[DangerDoskit]

Ahh the apple IIc that brings back memories.  Nothing like a rousing game of Oregon trail or turtle.  Fun times in middle School.

 

Anyway this game is made for potatoes or even a suped up carrot.   I have found the same as everyone else better hardware is almost detrimental.
