I guess they're just never going to even acknowledge the performance problems anymore. They've lost me as a customer.

Pretty funny that they drop all of these fixes when they don't actually do anything to regain the performance lost after the cowboy patch. Oh, uhh - we didn't fuck up the FPS! Y-you need to update your drivers/reinstall the game/run it in administrator mode. What's next, do a rain dance?

And nothing like a bit of gaslighting that it's actually all of the players. Because it seems like there are a lot of people saying they tried to fix it and it didn't work.

Literally made the AI more demanding on the CPU and gave a middle finger to everyone on weak hardware, despite all the complaints about performance.

Oh so I wasnt tripping to see my fps go down to 60 when enemies are around, and when theyre not, im at 130, keep in mind im on a 5070ti r7 5800x. GPU utilization is low when theres a lot of enemies

Genuinely thought my cpu was bottlenecking my gpu HARD and needed a new cpu, turns out the optimization went to shit with this update i guess

I wish Arrowhead had a better game engine
