2.5.2 Performance/Fps Versus 3.0.2

[Berreta]

Ive noticed that post patch for every server Ive played on has a now terrible server fps/performance in general compared to how it ran before the latest .3 update.

 

Before the update I would get a solid 40-60 fps usually with some dips when s*** hit the fan but it was a good solid fps.. Now I notice that as soon as the servers fill up performance drops drastically and im lucky if i can even maintain 30 fps.

 

Its even worse then KOTH which is pretty bad... Ive also noticed that the longer the server is up and the more people join the less the game utilizes my GPU. At times it will drop to 20 percent usage and ill get 10-15 frames which is literally unplayable!

 

Im not super tech savy with this stuff so im not sure if its a memory leak or the new stuff added in the update? But tbh it doesnt seem like any of the new features/content should have this big of an impact on performance as there wasnt a whole lot added/changed?

 

I also know this is not just a problem with me as everyone I play with is experiencing the same problem.

 

Anyone have some insight on why the drop in performance and if it will change with future updates? Because at this stage ive literally quit epoch because of the poor fps.

All our players says; FPS are better as before so i not understanding this issue

My server FPS seems more stable after the update and constant 46-47 with the occasional AI mission drop but goes right back up, normally 20-25 players on

It's being reported that fps is dropping on servers with a lot of players KOTH, LIFE and the large populated Epoch servers. This isn't an Epoch specific issue, it's an Arma issue. 

Those here with <40 players won't see these issues.

Yea im more or less talking about a server that has 50 players or more. Thats when the FPS drops significantly. Which prior to the patch, it didnt.

Client FPS, I haven't noticed any difference at all.

But server FPS taking a huge hit.

Also happening in wasteland. I believe this is an Arma issue, not caused by epoch.
