Latency

[stephenalandavie]

I am getting a reading of 50 Ms and 4 bars is this good or bad?

That is more than good. If you're experiencing a delay, it's something else.

I see, iv tried it on at least 10 different machines now and i still experience delays in some places tonight i had it in one of the tombs on korriban.

 

 

These are all high end machines their was just one which has a graphics chip.

Are you saying you've tried the game on 10 different machines but only one had a dedicated graphics card? If so, it's likely the machines you tried it on do not meet the minimum specifications required to run SWTOR at an acceptable level.

 

Can you post your computer specs? What are you graphics settings at? Turning off shadows tends to help a lot of people, as shadows are generally very graphic intensive in video games.

Good to know I misunderstood you. What are your graphics settings set to? Bloom and shadows tend to be resource hogs.

 

Hit CTRL+SHIFT+F to display your FPS in the bottom left corner of your screen, and see if it significantly drops only while indoors.

[stephenalandavie]

When i check FPS it tends to jump between 60 and 20 FPS it drops to as little as 4 FPS in some places. I have turned shadows off and bloom, i can't help but wonder if it is on biowares end. If it is then i know it will take time to fix mind it isnt unplayable i can quest and grind and will try warzones tomorrow. General graphics settings are set to low but customized to turn off shadows and bloom

There are some known graphical bugs that are getting worked out, but in the meantime make sure your drivers are updated and all the jazz, and head over to the Customer Support forum to share your info there to help BioWare troubleshoot it.
