I just remembered why I don't do PVP3/4

[florin]

No fps problem for me...just usual lag from time to time but its MA sided.
And offtopic got this strange BUG?? or what in the hell...51.52 ped resources/residue + 453 ammo no global????

You only global if the ammo is over 50 PED.

I basicly live in there and have no problem with fps.

I run with roughly between 70 and 90 fps inside pvp4 most of the time.

When a GD is near or alot of mobs it can go down to 50 though.

But 50 FPS is still alot more than I got when playing in the ring in twin.

On some occations I do feel the problem abit though. Dont know why or what causes it, but sometimes it can get abit laggy.

hmm weird.. I never experience any lag when entering other pvp areas on eudoria, when I enter pvp4 however = laggy .. drop in framerates as well. Must be something with the GFX-card. The textures to be loaded in pvp4 (and all around Akmuul) might be heavier (more detailed grass, flowers etc).

The only solution for me is to put down terrain and avatar quality to minimum before entering pvp4...

What GFX - card are you using? ...

is that a feature? ur uber = u make others lag in pvp?

still unknown to me but i jump out each time my framerate goes down like mad because when the lag start, i have just enuff time to charge the tp then one of the infamous greendot i added to my "special list" of laggy-pvp'er suddendly appear...

Have you reported these coincedences to MA? If people are using some sort of 'auto lagger' to enable them to lag others in PVP (however strange it may be) it needs investigating. Let MA have a lkist of the lag-inducing avatars to watch...

It's because of the GRASS. I am able to play perfectly fine with no lag everywhere, even at the rig, and twin peaks (not the ring though). But when I enter PVP4 it's lagging like crazy. I know it has to be the grass, because whenever I go outside of it the lag goes away. I guess I have to buy a new graphic card to do pvp4, but it sucks when everything else works fine.

Does not matter for me if it is in PVP4 or any one of the other LA's that cultivate this Lagweed, the result is the same for me, frame rates down to under 8 at best.

The same grassy shit on Eudoria present no problems at all for me. Only the grass on Amathera for me.

Yeah it's the lagweed

same thing happens at new swiss, one thing that can help a bit is to disable wind in options. That way the grass stop "dancing" and helps a lot to bring lag down.

I will try this. Perhaps it is the Lag weed.
Strange, as in Real Life "Weed" causes a similar "time dilation" effect (so I have been told).

Well I was going to say I have no problems with fps, but that would bite if its fps based on skills


scary idea!

Ok.

The advise to disable "wind effects" seems to be good.

I disabled them. I ventured into PVP4.
I did not meet any GD's, but I did not lagg down on entry, as I normally do.

So it seem MA equip PVP4 with a "frame rate dependant on PC" system> "lag weed." (wind effects)

It was only a brief test (like ten mins) before a Mulmac (spelling) splatted me (I was armour less, and not looking to hunt, just testing frame-rates.)

A question though...

Normally when I get a gun out with a scope on , and use the scope, I can see better. In PVP areas the reverse seems to be true?
The scope becomes a "blind fold".

What gives? (got screen shots if needed.)
