Kractoa Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 You know very well that there is quite a small part of the playerbase actually using the forums. I can tell you that most people experiencing FPS issue just blame it on their machine thinking it doesn't meet the system requirements and just move on without ever saying a word about their problem. That's how it has always worked, for one voice trying to be heard you always have much more remaining silent behind. Plus you only have to Google the issue to see that there are lots of threads in other forums about the issue so its more than people think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iramelanox Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 ok well call it a guess, id be willing to bet they have less than 300k subscribers come the end of feb cause of a poorly optimized game engine. Judging by the sheer number of forum post about performance issues id say its closer to 80% of the playerbase having problems, nothing about a choppy unresponsive combat mmo is fun or enjoyable. I think that you are a Bioware fanboy with no idea about gaming. A vocal minority?? Let me explain the problems for you dude: 1. The specs that Bioware announced for this game are wrong, need stronger machines to play it ok because the game is not optimized ( is so ruined that they didn't add even the Antializing ) 2.Casting abilities for each class and character is broken - first it plays animation THAN announce the server = each ability is rendering speed dependent. 3. Bioware customer support is worse than my ISP customer support.They close the tickets without answering and when they answer they have not a clue what they say. 4.There is a huge number of random bugs in the game that Bioware does not address neither makes official ( for example yesterday the mods from my pvp gun were gone over the night) 5. No rules enforced in guild names, general chat spamming and player names. And i can add at least 10 others here. THIS IS WHY THIS GAME SO FAR IS A FAILURE.

Dracsoul Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Defending yourself from general chat trolls is a banable offense, I have had warning after warning and week ban for putting people in their place, first MMO to support group trolling. I will have to agree.. but then again, we see where the priorities lie with this scenario.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if you think that. dude, you are annoying, fine if things work out for you, but i have an optimized system, even so it´s 4 years old i can run almost every game (latest was skyrim) flawlessly on high details (even other mmo´s) but all of the sudden when there is a problem with one game named SWTOR it´s all my fault? sorry that´s ludicrous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are fogetting one small thing. Just because your system works with one game, it doesnt mean it will work with another. As a LOT of people have no issues at all with the game, its pretty safe to say theres either a conflict (software or hardware) or a user issue. Since you are adamant on blaming everyone but yourself, and are reluctant to even consider troubleshooting your issues, then you're just going to be stuck with the issues you have. As for skyrim, the problems in that game, just like this one, were all down to driver issues. Notice how in each reiteration of the GPU drivers, it states " increases performance in Skyrim / BF3 by 10% or 25%" But i guess you know more than people who have been there and done it.

OH yea you're right, just because our systems dont work fine with -all other games- and not with SWTOR, clearly its going to be ours fault.

My friend, every forum thread I go into trying to see what issues are going on and potential fixes, you are in the thread, posting some garbage about how they should stop complaining and fix their own machines.

The first troubleshooting you should do is ALWAYS on your own machine. Once you have removed all possibility of any errors on your machine, then you can complain to the devs. Unfortunatly, you, like hundreds of others complainers on here, simply refuse to do this.

Post your dxdiag log. Theres little point in saying you have an issue if you wont provide any information so people can diagnose your problem.

Yeah sorry may be a stupid question to ask, but always best I guess. As for the Imp hate going around, they're right in what they're saying. In any case of troubleshooting, it's best to rule out everything on your side first. That way, when you do contact Bioware, you're able to say "I did x, y and z. Here's the results, go from there". Otherwise the first thing they'll even ask you, is the basics again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philnoob Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 are the people who havent been able to log on since release gonna get playtime refunded?

Guaza Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) I have a AMD Phenom II x4 955 3.2GHz, ATI HD XFX 5770 XXX Edition OC'ed, 6Gig DDR2, and the game runs good @ 1080p all settings high with shadows enabled, but I do get massive fps drops in certain areas, specially indoors. I have a geforce gtx 460 1g laying around that I will try and see if it makes a difference in fps. Thare ARE issues in the game. No doubt about it. I've been monitoring the horrid fps thread and most (not all) post are pretty valid, somethings wrong when a pc x2 better than mine have fps issues equal or worst than mine.
