Anyone else getting performance issues since the last update?

I used to get 80-100fps in all maps, now seeing drops to 50fps and averaging around 70fps.

Reinstalled nvidia driver using DDU and repaired game, still the same :(

Had the same dropped from 120-144fps in game to about 80 fps. Reset in game video options to default and then back to my normal settings and fps back to normal. The patch seems to change random video settings.
 
its the super twitchy sweaty try hard way people play these games, they run about at full speed spamming everything they have in a never ending cycle of kill die respawn, people in cover or prone dont get noticed when you are playing with your reflexes rather than looking and reacting

bfv makes that easier due to the level of ground detail and the lighting, but I like it that there is another tactic rather than just joining in the spam (although that is fun too for a bit)

I don't think people are blind, although some are careless, the models blend into the rocks and debris so much it breeds camping. Devastation is really bad for it.

Agreed, happened to me on Devastation yesterday. Guy prone on his back in some rocks on a Breakthrough point, starts potato'ing his LMG at me, this went on for a good few seconds and even though I knew where the shots were coming from, I legitimately couldn't see him. Consider myself to have good eyesight and never really struggle spotting players in BF or PUBG etc, but as you mentioned some maps are prime for "tactical gameplay".

Having daily missions for "Get kills while prone" also doesn't help the issue

Hardly surprising, this game is an absolute abortion and I can see EA thinking that too and bailing all efforts.

True but at least if you can host your own server you may be able to tweak it so some of the dumbass things don't happen. Or maybe I'm just stupidly optimistic. Or just stupid. :)

Or we'll end up with a server list where 1/3 of them are "24/7 [enter the runabout clown map here]" and 1/3 are "Restricted snipers, no camping, play by our rules with 24/7 admins" leaving the last few vanilla server setups that DICE care to run.

God, that just took me back. Shudder...!
 
It wasn't so much the servers, but the active admins that could kick and ban cheaters without having to jump through 27 hoops, dye your hair purple, express an ode to the olde gods and let them know your shoe size only for nothing to happen for weeks and weeks, if at all.

This really makes me laugh.

So many complained about 3rd party servers with such settings. Now BF5 has a load of servers all the same... Wow that is fun.

No one was forcing you to play on modded (i use this term loosely) servers, you could have just played on official ones.

Love or hate 3rd party servers at least it gave some variety.

I think some people would be surprsed how much time admins put into keeping their servers clean of hackers, yes there were "badmins" (i actually banned a few on the server i ran in bf4). Good admins would spend hours going through, pbbans,pbscreens, player stat checker sites and so on.

The biggest mistake EA/Dice made with BF was the removal of 3rd party servers.
 
3rd party servers were great, our clan had a very active BF3 one right up until recently. I was an admin on that and yeah, we spent time doing the right thing and banning a-hols and hackers.
But we never implemented rules that stopped people playing how they wanted and banning weapons because we were butt hurt by being killed by snipers, Claymores, UCAV's, mortars or even my speciality the EOD Bot. You want to see someone rage, get a nemesis kill on them with that little feller. :D
 
I really like the ability of blending into the surroundings. That's probably the single most realistic feature of any "war" game.

Can Dice give everyone binoculars or summat?

But you paid for a server (which was expensive) so it was down to your paying clan how you ran it.

Did you have all the maps in the cycle ?

My point being do you not like choice or variety ?

I never understood people complaining about 24/7 servers.. I never played on them because I wasn’t forced to.. I had choice.. but some people like that type of thing so why not please everyone.

The removal of 3rd party servers killed many clans off.. clan communities were a massive reason for battlefield having a good population on PC.

When you have practically a whole team not just running right past but also right on top of a prone player then you know you have a problem with visibility........

If I wanted to play a game where I could have a "realistic" experience i.e. camp with my tent up and cheese to get easy kills then arma or squad is where I would go.








Sadly, I think dg may be right for once, I can see this game dying very quickly.
