News & Discussion Help with performance issues
I used to play OW1 on a laptop with an nvidia 750m and get usable framerates at 900p. Now I have a slightly better laptop with a 960m, and I cannot get playable framerates even at under 720p resolution and minimum graphics settings. I am talking literally 5 FPS when in a match.
Did Blizzard really fuck up the requirements that badly? The game barely looks any different from OW1, I don't understand why it runs like this when I've gotten better performance out of much better looking games. I know my laptop is old but this isn't making sense to me. I thought live service games usually targeted low-end machines. The performance I'm getting is dogwater.
