performance went out the window with this patch

[teal flume]

after this patch game is barely playable for me it even dips into the 40 fps and below 60 way too much

i think aint even the fps drops per se but the micro stutters that came, feels like the game freezes for very short moments

[violet grove]

So it’s not lag? I’m experiencing the same thing

[ionic forge]

Feels fine to me

It actually feels better. I dont have lag spikes anymore as textures stream

[teal flume]

i just updated all drivers and restarted pc, will report how it runs now. fingers crossed

[teal flume]

didnt seem to help, it mostly drops during early game the first 5 minutes or so. after respawn when running to lane i also get some hard drops seemingly random even if nothing is happening in my sight

[strange crag]

remember to use right startup

[median granite]

did you switch to default on Steam?

If you're using DX11 you may have issues, shader cache only works on DX12

[strange crag]

@median granite yes this

[thorn marsh]

My laptop is burning, because the temperature is too high. Idk what they did this update (all my settings are on low)

[median granite]

No change other than switch the default to DX12, you can move it back if its causing issues

[strange crag]

When laptop gets hot the performance will also drop

[strange crag]

Ohhh. Ya I was confused why no DX12. I think this should be more clear

[strange crag]

I used DX11 and had like 110-140 FPS with stutters. Make sure you are using default launch option. This sounds very much alike

Like a stutter every 20 seconds or so

Oh nvm. I didn't see it was this post xd

[thorn marsh]

problem solved after i put it back to DX 11

[strange crag]

Wtf not on dx12?

[thorn marsh]

Yep

It was on Dx12 but when I forced it to be 11 the temp went down 15%

Steam itself is currently still recommending the DX11 setting. The DX12 setting is just optional. It might be a good idea to make DX12 the standard on steam and making DX11 be optional if it is something that is now mandatory.

As for the update, I have also been experiencing issues, however I haven't tried DX12 yet, so that might resolve my issues.

[median granite]

Oh really? On my side its offering DX12 as the default

could you screenshot when you boot next please?

[valid loom]

Currently not home but will do when I get back!

[median granite]

Thank you sir

[teal flume]

thanks for the answers. i was so used to click to click the optional start with dx 12 below that i didnt see it got switched as default start option, so i clicked the dx 11 start. i just had a match that went smooth in comparison to yesterday. good work!

[ionic forge]

Might be confused because the launch options look very similar, but instead of dx12 as the second option, its dx11 now

[valid loom]

Yeah I think that is what I meant.
I also remember the second option being DX12, but apparently now it is DX11.

Maybe my launcher also changed and I haven't noticed it yet.

Thanks for letting me know, I will check later if the launcher also changed for me!

[weak current]

Dx 12 is my default recommended on steam but it pops up a box that says play predecessor and below it it says play predecessor dx11

[median granite]

Yeah makes sense, and you get good perf?

[weak current]

My performance is better then it's been
