Nope just as bad as before;

i5 2500k @ 4.6
8 gig Ram
5870
128gb Crucial SSD

Sloooooow loading times, fps drops, stuttering, using latest drivers etc.

It was fine while leveling, as you never see anyone but in areas with 30ish people ie Ilum it slows down and 40+ people it becomes a slideshow.

Just a very bad unoptimised engine.

What GPU are you running?

I mentioned that I'me getting loads of screen stearing even with Vsync on and game run smoother for me suddenly.

I've a GTX 470 using Nvidia Inspector to force on x8 FXAA and the LOD to -3.

Intel 2600k Stock
8GB RAM 1600mhz
GTX 470 Stock
Momentus XT 500GB Hybrid HDD/SSD

at 2560x1440
 
I have an i7 @ stock 3.2ghz 6gig ram 460GTX

I normally run in Fullscreen Windowed mode but the game had switched to Fullscreen only and the difference was considerable.

Ilum is a looong way off for me so no point :p

Wow - go to ilum and tell me you have a good framerate! Mine just hit 1FPS - what a joke lol

That's the first thing i checked today. It's actually really bad, an MMO that can't handle large amounts of people on one screen.

It was bad before with less people, so with more people on it's going to be unplayable for most people.

Framerate is still terrible in Warzones, didn't expect any miracles but was worth logging in to try and now the in game vsync setting doesn't work for me.

Yeah I'm done with the game, not gonna sit and bitch about Bioware but I am very disappointed in what they've released :rolleyes:
 
think i will give up on all PvP elements now.

I LOVE the PvE side and I generally enjoy that more anyway hence a PvE server - but Ilum is silly, yes it feels like war now but the engine can't handle it. Warzones are just steamrolled by empire - its like the republic don't know what they are doing

HM FPs and Operations for me :) Just need some more Level 50s for the Ops!
 
Something about the turrets at the Republic base being farmable for 100 valor per capture/kill/whatever.

The Ilum changes are just fail on so many levels. The sensible thing would have been do something about faction imbalance THEN change Ilum, right now its just a farmfest for Imperial on most servers (i suppose theres a few servers out of the 200 odd where Republic are higher pop). Oh and since its so much of a zerg, melee classes should probably just not bother going.


Edit: Even though the patch notes say you can abandon the bonus series quests that couldn't be abandoned, i still can't abandon the Tatooine one >.>

Blizzard is probably have a rare old time laughing at their biggest competition in years being self destructed by it's devs.

Shame AA is not working with the game client yet.

Keep the mouse over the AA icon in the graphics menu and it will read:

Not implemented in game yet
