Should be aiming for close to 60fps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems low. ping is 82 , is that good ? if not how do I fix it ? less than 30 is generally considered unplayable. Low fps is usually a symptom of poor graphics performance related to your computer and not the connection to the server...try turning down you graphics settings in game. The ping is dictated by your location and how many "hops" your signal takes between you and the server, mine is about mid 30s, to put it into perspective for you 82 is considered ok by most.

Maybe if you told us your system specs and internet details we might be able to help. Edited February 3 by JCC45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Without the specs there is no way to diagnose it. Unless it is a crazy old card, make sure you are using your GPU and not your integrated graphics, and try tuning down your settings. I'm sure there is sources and guides out there that tell the important settings from the uninportant... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hit enter and then on the System tab click on the Save All Information button. That creates a file that you should be able to upload here... OR copy paste the entire file contents. Willing to bet both the CPU and GPU will not meet the minimum... Edited February 3 by CylonRed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

431 [CAST] Murcc Members 1,941 posts 8,991 battles Report post #13 Posted February 3 The game is requiring more and more power as it gets upgraded. You need a pretty good video card and a half decent CPU to adequately play the game now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
