I would like to know how high on the list of improvements is optimizing the game specifically the Fps for the regular PS4? (and all other platforms too of course).
The frame rate drops effects pretty much everything i like about the game. When the slowdown happens it makes it almost impossible to aim at moving robots at close range. Not to mention the slowdown happens always at mission locations where you would like to have a change to use the games weapons in fluid combat. Now only place for fun combat is somewhere outside the towns, far away from bunkers or airfields. Somewhere in the woods where there are some roaming robots just a handful.
I just finished the main story and i don’t think i had a single mission that run at somewhat steady Fps, thus making the missions feel like a drag. Just Cause 4 also had its problems (tho Fps was/is much better in JC4) at launch but they did fix most of those issues. (Blurriness, Slowdowns, Water). So it can’t be the engine ? or if it is it can be fixed even on old PS4?
I know the team is small compared to AAA games like Just Cause 4, Rage 2. But still a steady Fps should be kinda obvious first thing to have in a game at this day and age.
Base ps4 and pro ps4 and pc and both Xbox’s are all suffering the lagg on G-zero , this is known by the Dev’s and they are currently working on a fix to sort the Persistent lagg , while on subject off lagg can the Development Team Kindly take a look at the COTW lagg that came with the Yukon map ’ , every map now has the same lagg as G-zero when close to animals , still loving the Yukon and Bike’s thank’s for your hard work Avalanche Team and Moderator’s
So i understand they need to fix the mission bugs before they can start to focus more on adding more content. But you can’t really enjoy the missions or even the game as general, before they fix the lag issues.
Then they can start to add more content. Like they are toting in the live streams.
The lagg on COTW came with update and map last week and was working fine before update so it will be fixed just unintentional bad luck , G-zero has had lagg from launch that seem’s to not be as persistent a few update’s later , so won’t be long before they hit the sweet spot , cheer’s
And the ’ cosmetic ’ DLC is made by an artist that work’s on both game’s and does not work on game engine mechanics ’ so they keep the Coder’s focused on the game taking no resource from Development and bug fixe’s .
Im a day 1 player aswell , i have both ps4 consoles , the lagg is the same on both console’s , at launch i got lagg every where, solo / muliplayer and Overby airbase , now 3month’s plus , i get a little lagg solo mode , and lagg crash on muliplayer sometimes not every session , . Im sure everbody’s save is slighty different so bugg lagg is different for some more than others, cheers
I’ll be sure to ask this during tomorrow’s live stream if you can’t make it, but if you can this would be a great question for the streams i think! I thoroughly agree though that frame rates on all platforms should be the next big thing to fix now that missions are mostly good.
The Avalanche Team are an Honest bunch , the fact they livestream every week even with the salty hate people can send , they still carry on and take the stick , and stay honest . I could give example’s on the recent AAA disaster game’s and failing with livestream’s audience . Avalanche also read out salty comment’s to prove they take all feedback , so Tomorrow @Tene can you give graham and matt a thank’s from us the forum regular’s as it be good show support to thier AAA stream
Just to make couple things more clear, in my case. I Played as host for the whole time with random ppl joining once in a while and i have used the same save from the start. I don’t believe if you release a game you should reset your saves this game is not early access there is no early access on playstation i expect to get a full working game when i buy a game on consoles. On PC i may want to play Beta version, early access. greenlighted games. Not on Console with full release date prize. So maybe that’s why i experience so much frame drops ect. But i believe this game is meant to be played online right. Lets pray for improvement. Surely no one will wait forever.
Sorry to ask, but how do I connect to livestream with devs? I play alone and have never talked to a dev (except at trade fairs). so how do I know one is coming up, and how do I connect? Thank you.
Android or apple device will get you chatting while at work , if not don’t worry im sure all topics will be covered tomorrow , then you can sit back with a caffeine after work and not get set on fire by your boss , aye
. Avalanche also read out salty comment’s to prove they take all feedback , so Tomorrow 
even tho i haven’t really seen answers by devs here.
