PC A20 Performance Thoughts So Far

[GloPopJigglyJam]

Hey guys, I was curious to see what everyone else is finding in terms of overall performance so far with the A20 experimental. I personally have found a nice smooth 60 frames when moving in the world generally, but when I’m encountering large groups of zeds at once, I loose frames heavily. I also drop frames when attacking with my spear right now which is odd. I do realize it’s an experimental build for a reason so no big deal, just wanted to hear what others are experiencing. Thanks guys!

I've def seen dips in performance at times but still playable. I have trouble maintaining consistency above all else. I play with relatively low end specs and I can get up to around 90-95 max with drops as low as 40 and hover around 70 on avg.

I played about 3hrs last night and my avg FPS was lower than normal at 58.9 according to logs. (I don't remember what all I had running in the background at the time either....couldve been porn for I all know lol, so...). That was with the settings below.

Rough glance at game logs....I averaged about 65ish during horde night, 80 when inside shotgun messiah, 93 while driving with few entities. I notice more drops when firing weapons or using a club.

mines on everything low...ish, i got a 1660 zotec, its my cpu that lets me down, you guys just shut up about having 60+ fps on ultra settings moaning, just think yourselves lucky you have that

pointless rant over

have a nice day

60+ FPS and dips of course at max settings, it's gonna happen no matter what when encountering tons of zombies or being in a largely crowded area due to the calculations that are done each second.

I generally get around 120-80FPS, heavily depends on my location.

The problem with trying to calculate performance in cities is that everything is randomly generated. Having Dishong Tower instead of Higashi can harm FPS, having a gas station instead of a fastfood place can also have differing effects.

With that out of the way, I sometimes run BETTER after 30 minutes of playing. I can't say too much about it though because I restart my game at 04:00 sharp.

I've never really liked spears so unfortunately I can't give helpful advice on that side of things. Other than that, it runs pretty smoothly for me, better than A19 by far where I'd be lucky to get 80FPS.

I have an Asus Tuf Gaming laptop with a 1660Ti Nvidia and a 8 core 16 thread cpu and I run on ultra with shadows and motion blur and other effects off.  (shadows are huge resource hogs so if you can, turn off shadow reflections and other shadow settings)  My frames, if you look at my water bug thread, run around 90 to 120 most times unless there are a lot of zeds, rain, other heavily moving things etc.  I have to say,  in A19  I only hovered around 70 so there has been HUGE differences for me and I love it.  Thats not to say that others,  like Data above, have the cards we have so there will always be some who have more issues than others.  I will say though, the game does run a lot worse for me when its raining but most games are like that.  I am all around happy with the game graphically, I just think they have a few kinks to work out as with most games and I cant wait til the day that this game is finally full release LOL.   Happy Holidays everyone!!!!
