fps drop with patch

Yes, I’m talking about after patch that introduced the bug in general. I’m specifically talking about the hot fix patch last night. I was detailing that the perceived lack of framerate issues that he himself stated he initially experienced due to a lack of people by describing the frame rates of a near empty Lions Arch. In fact, I am actually getting better frame rates when I’m alone but the performance rapidly plummets around people. For instance, I can turn anti-aliasing on and it actually improves my frame rates for whatever reason (I went from 2 to 5 fps during a marionette event post bug patch).

It really is best if we try to be as descriptive as possible about the actual performance and when we see problems instead of just give a blanket “my performance sucks post patch” assessment.

well solo performance is not that big of a deal the main this is WvW and worlds events thats the issue everyone is having.

and in Lion arch too right after patch i could tell something was up

On the topic of the problem, I am not sure, but the evening (eu time) the patch came out, my husband and I did the Megadestroyer event before the first update to the patch was released. we did not notice any fps issues then. However, later that night after the first update, I tried wvw and had the issue we’re all describing. And, the day after, I did the Megadestroyer event again with my husband and we both had very poor fps. There were perhaps less people the second time we were there as well. It could be that something in the first update was a problem or this could just be useless and anecdotal, so take it for what it’s worth.

It is likely wishful thinking. Lions Arch was getting better frame rates immediately after the patch (like right after it hit) until everyone loaded up near the portals then it was back to watching a powerpoint presentation of gw2. So it definitely has something to do with the number of people running around.

no not for me is was instant and what he described is 100% true. befor world events was fine then with not setting changed right after patch boom BAD FPS drop with even LESS people and the Event

Were there any optimizations for AMD CPUs?

yeah what he said
Theoretically everyone should see an improvement.

Except people running the OSX client who seem to be reporting drastic decreases in FPS to almost unplayable levels on decent spec machines.
(I’d appreciate not being told to write this in the OSX Support thread because it does not have any sort of dev presence in it so I may as well be talking to a brick wall.)

On a more positive note – I do seem to have slightly better performance in Windows after the update, especially in Orr where I used to see a noticeable drop in performance.

mac users here also this patch has dropped my performance before this patch it was fine
