Just wanted to know how many of you have bad FPS when they should'nt

On the last question I voted No although I might count as Yes. My pc is technically very high end, but I only have 6 gigs of RAM so it's slower than some other computers I see.

Also for some people "bad FPS" is below 50, but I'm used to 20-30 fps and so don't count that as "bad," seeing as I do just fine with it.

[Kazma]

lets count anything less then 50 fps as 'bad' on a high end pc when you play mid/low graphics then

edit: I remember having 100+ fps on low graphics when I started playing this game

During alpha and closed beta I could play with Ultra settings and still get at least 60fps. Ever since they redid all of the UI for the garage and menus I've suffered terrible fps. Before the Raider patch, my ping would randomly skyrocket for 1-2 matches (300-800 ping in my own region). After that stopped, I started having fps degradation over time. I'd start around 45fps average (on all low settings), which is fine for me, but by the 3rd or 4th match in a row it would start to slide down to around 20fps and I would start teleporting. Eventually it would drop to around 15fps by the end of 1st match/beginning of the 2nd.
I figured the degradation issue was because of my machine overheating and not being able to keep up, but that just goes to show how much worse the game has been getting. Now, even after updating my drivers, tweaking my ini and a modest GPU overclock, I am stuck dealing with 25fps at most, which really only happens when I'm far away from anyone else. As soon as I get into fights, it drops as low as 5fps. I have no such issues with any other game I've ever played.

30 is unplayable for me

They added a lot of unnecessary effects for OB I feel. I don't mind playing on ultra, but I want a nice clean experience. Not so much ambient occlusion that it seems like I'm teetering on the edge of a g-force induced blackout.

Nice graphics shouldn't get in the way of target acquisition either.

my rig is insane... 2 680 ftw+ 4 gigs 3930k oced to 4.8ghz 16 gigs of ram... I can play with everything on ultra just no physix... but my gpu's are only around 20% used and I get 60fps with adaptive vsync...what happens with physix on is 1 gpu goes to 99% and the other has no use and fps is horrible... latest beta drivers from nvidia...

i dont think its a troll post, the difference between 30 to 60 and to 120fps is abyssmal, not only optically, but as input lag.

[Kazma]

30 IS unplayable for everyone who is used to more.
FPShooters should run with at least 50 frames, especially in Hawken wich is a really fast paced game, high framerate is neccesary

Well boys, I have anything between 15 and 40 and my MMR still keeps rising. Jussayin'.

, we can all adapt to what we have in hand, but it doesnt mean we cant look for something better. many other players have different disadvantages and their MMR rating is still improving, it  doesnt mean they wouldnt prefer a better PC or connection or game optimization.

Need more poll options

I rarely get it, just occasionally.

Goes without saying. :-) If anyone can donate a beefed up PC and a couple of Titans, I'll PM you my address. :-)

My computer isn't a turbo murder hobo l33t machine of pr0sk1llz, but i was able to play hawken on medium settings before with everything running smooth. But since about february, my FPS went down. Even a little more since the raider patch, atleast it feels like that. After turning everything to low, I get SOME improvement, but my FPS is still worse than it was before.

[Kazma]

added option in last question that you dont have a good pc

Dont send that PC to him send it to me, he seems to be content with the performance and mmr improvement he makes on his current pc...

Need moar optimization.

[Xen0sys]

I have a pretty good but not great PC with an awesome video card. Overall I'm getting great FPS (max settings) except in the midst of a lot of action where it doesn't drop low enough to be unplayable. Might go down to 15-20 or so as a rough estimate for worst case.

Could be due to optimization or other hardware besides my GPU.

[Kazma]

not much entries in the poll, but it already doesn't look so good ...
