09-11-2016, 01:12 AM #1Hi, I wanted to commit for SC and tried the game during the free period. The issue is... my frame rate is around 40 to 60 fps in univers mode 60 in free flight 60 in vanduul, but in regular freez it drops to 5 seconds or less in vanduul. The game runs smoothly with perfect performance and looping sounds that return to normal. Someone please let me know about this problem – maybe a solution exists? I’m unsure if I should pledge 80€ if it keeps happening. My PC specs: i5 4690K, 4.5GHz GTX980Ti SC+ 1455/1900Mhz, 16GB CL8, 1600MHz, playing on SSD RAID 0 at 2560x1080.

Currently there’s no permanent solution, but given how fast they’re breaking bugs these days you might be lucky to catch it in the upcoming updates. You could experiment with modifying game.cfg first, then revisit that section later. > Found something useful, though it doesn’t fully match your situation. Worth trying.

You might also have seen your score for shots being delayed. The same issue happened to your client, who had to wait while the server processed the hits. Also, I just played a game where a Vanduul exploded without reason, and the game crashed after just five seconds of lag. Keep in mind we’re doing alpha testing.

They're currently using a Google compute center in the USA, which causes slow responses for European users, but this should improve soon. Unfortunately, we'll have to manage this situation until then.
