Trash clutter causing FPS drop?

Soloeus

Ever since some genius inserted 1,000's of trash items all over the world I haven't been at over 15 FPS in any zone in the game. I also see half-loaded towns and load screens all over.

The first issue I had was the patch where some genius decided to change the textures, that dropped me from 40 to 20. Now I am down to 15.

This is on low with all settings minimized. The game is ugly and blurry and I can't play this much more.

What kind of processor and graphics card do you have?

Soloeus

More than suitable and modern.

Asking that is assuming I have a primitive system which shouldn't run the game anyway. No, I don't need to upgrade my computer. I have no issues with any game except ESO.

I didn't have issues with ESO until they changed the textures.

Edit: That change brought my FPS from normal 60 to normal 40 and the trash items brought me to normal 15.

I didn't assume anything. It was a question to eliminate that as the first possible problem. That's how you begin to fix something. You start with the basics and move on. If you didn't want help, then your shouldn't be complaining.

You say it's more than suitable, but how do we know that until you tell us what they are?

1. It is a condescending and insulting "question" that is normally only asked as a language coding technique for "Are you just stupid?" in the same way as asking if my video card driver is up to date or if I have an Operating System installed on my computer.

2. You aren't helpful, you are insulting.

3. I am not complaining. I am talking about a problem I have.

If you don't have anything of value to add, go away.

well seeing as not everyone is experiencing an FPS drop, then the answer is clearly no, the items are not causing the FPS drop.

You can make the argument that the code may not be optimized for certain hardware setups, but the fact remains... the issue is still being caused by YOUR hardware and not a design of the game itself.

I know its just easier to assign blame to the developers, but just complaining about it doesn't really do much since the vast MAJORITY of players are not experiencing your problem. Send a support ticket in the game with your dxdiag report attached. Maybe it will help them identify why YOUR particular hardware configuration isn't handling the code. Maybe they can fix it on their end when time permits.

Then why would my hardware have run perfectly until this? Why would I have no issues running more advanced games that are harder on all elements of my PC? If it were my hardware then there would have been all kinds of red flags before now.

I hadn't said anything about it because I figured it was just some memory leak they would fix.

I was trying to help fix your issue and you took it as an insult. I find your response to my efforts as insulting. We don't know who you are, what you know, or what kind of system you have. So when you complain about fps issues, we need those details to determine what the cause of the problem is.
