_x_Acheron_x_ Players 484 posts 6,096 battles Report post #1 Posted July 29, 2016 Anyone else getting this now? The game freezes for about 1 second, every 30-40 seconds or so. It's not a connection/lag issues, it's the game actually freezing and holding up for a moment. Makes close quarters fighting nearly impossible. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You better be thankful you dont play war thunder. last I played that game it was basically the same except every 10 seconds. and considering how WT is a more fast paced game it breaks it so much more. one of the many reasons its a bad game. so yeah, not that bad if its only every 30-40 seconds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[ST-EU] Admiral_noodle Supertest Coordinator 6,337 posts 4,395 battles Report post #5 Posted July 29, 2016 Same here. Was worse last night than this morning but the same issue. Micro lags where everything stops and the lag button as my 30ms jumps for a second. It is annoying. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zed_Von_Toza Players 326 posts 1,155 battles Report post #7 Posted July 29, 2016 I had it for a while too yesterday, and the day before but on that occasion my internet connection was playing up, so I gave the router a damned good thrashing with a tree branch. It was it's own fault I had warned it! No idea why it happened yesterday though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ST-EU] Admiral_noodle Supertest Coordinator 6,337 posts 4,395 battles Report post #8 Posted July 29, 2016 I thought it was my internet but I have a clean 150Mbps and still suffer micro lags every minute or so. Not only in binoc view either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Venatacia Beta Tester 872 posts 5,885 battles Report post #9 Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) Not only stuttering, but every so often the game will just go to a black screen and crash. Had a couple of months break from this game and you come back to this. Really improved the game WG. Every match there is someone AFK if not more than one. Ridiculous.

[ST-EU] Admiral_noodle Supertest Coordinator 6,337 posts 4,395 battles Report post #10 Posted July 29, 2016 I also have BitTorrent on. Which I did not realise. My argument is invalid until I fix that. The game also looks wrong somehow. But again I'm just updating my drivers so my argument is also invalid on that.

[ST-EU] Admiral_noodle Supertest Coordinator 6,337 posts 4,395 battles Report post #13 Posted July 29, 2016 that's a good point, on reflection, it happens much more to me in binoc view aswell. Rebooted. Turned off torrent seeding. New graphics card driver. Reset graphics to recommended. Checked internet speed and quality. All fine. Much improved... BUT the micro lags are still there. Again more in binoc view. About 5-10 per game I think. Not unplayable but very irritating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mtm78 Alpha Tester 19,378 posts 6,105 battles Report post #14 Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) Same here, microlag in bino view, normally I would first blame my mods but I been running vanilla since the last patch and it has been pretty steady. Outside of binocular view I have not noticed it to the point where it interferes with gameplay, in binocular view it does as it messes up getting a proper lead while snapshotting targets. It is worse with higher player count on the server. edit: Had some really bad games tonight with micro stuttering but the player count on server was low with 11k at the time, and pingplotter shows a nice flat stable latency.

daki Weekend Tester 1,677 posts 20,280 battles Report post #15 Posted July 29, 2016 I have stuttering since several patches ago, but its not lag related (all fine there). What I do have are major FPS drops related stuttering every 3-4 secs where FPS drops from approx. 55 to 15 (even below 10 when there is a lot of action around) - settings are at high. Tried setting graphics at low, yet it is still there (from 70ish to 20). I have the latest drivers, have tried reinstalling the game, setting sound to low... nothing helps. If anyone has any suggestions, I would be much grateful Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[X-RE] cereborial Beta Tester 9 posts 26,200 battles Report post #17 Posted July 29, 2016 I have this too. Also,sometimes the game freezes for a few seconds and if I was targetting a ship it will show as stationary, with smoke going straight up. Aim at it and the game stutters back into life and I miss by a country mile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[A-O-W] whoers Players 40 posts 6,278 battles Report post #18 Posted July 29, 2016 Same here, I used to have constant 60FPS, but now it drops to 28-30FPS regularly and makes the game unplayable. Strange thing is, that this only happens in windowed mode, whilst in fullscreen the drops are less frequent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[A-O-W] whoers Players 40 posts 6,278 battles Report post #23 Posted July 30, 2016 Defragment game directory after every update. I've the game on SSD so this isn't the cause. 5.8.1 was working fine, there were some games with lag spikes but it was uncommon; even rare. I had to reinstall the game after update 5.9.0 and that's when it started. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
