[quote who="Corbeaubm" reply="360" id="2749398"]It's also not just "we're showing a bunch of objects, thus we need to show fewer of them." It's the game refusing to utilize GPUs to any noticeable level. Seriously. It's easily verifiable (through hardware monitoring programs) on any machine with the problem. Fix it. Showing a few less polygons isn't a solution.[/quote] +1
I'm a little perturbed by the wording of #1 here: " Late game Slowdown!!!!" For most of us here, the slowdown isn't only during the late game --- it's from turn 1 (as soon as a city is built). Hovering over cities is where the majority of the FPS is lost and that's early (and mid) game as well.
[quote who="I Intrude" reply="353" id="2748858"] Quoting cephyn, reply 352OK so there's the big update post. can we stop the histrionics now? this is issue #1. I was always big into theater. It seems you were too, with how much you seem to care about mine and others personal decisions regarding a computer game. I hope to "grow" some patience, maturity and become way less emotional by following in your example. On a more serious note, it is g
[quote who="db0" reply="287" id="2738483"] I can't believe that it's at the core of the engine or something like that. I guess this issue affects everyone? What I can't believe is that such a widespread and disruptive bug wasn't caught during the beta, especially with so many people pointing it out.[/quote] Ditto. I supported Stardock by pre-ordering this game, but this seems like a pretty huge bug to release with. Supposedly othe
1.06 didn't seem to do much for me. I've still got good FPS in tactical/cloth map/on the map when a city isn't anywhere near by. I'm hoping they fix this soon, since I really do like the game (what I've been able to play of it), but playing at 10 fps or lower isn't very fun.
Just dittoing that I've got the same problem. At first I thought it was my sub-par machine (T9300, 8600M, 4 GIGs RAM), but I've turned all the settings way down and it's obviously some sort of coding problem. Like everyone else, my machine speeds when there isn't a city on screen. Upon starting a new game I'm getting very fast speeds, but as soon as I build a city it drops to 15-25 FPS. I love this game, so I'm hoping they fix it soon!
