Massive stutters with DF client

I still have drops when flying into a new zone and the title of the new place appears, I haven’t tested yet if interaction with other players causes the drop when land beneath me or using certain spells, the problem is very consistent when changing zones, the texture pop in causes abrupt fps drops. I also had abrupt drops when enemy npc animations die and fall to the ground, I have to check if that is still a problem.

What a shocker, Blizzard didn’t fix the stutters. Maybe in a year guys.

Blizzard (unsurprisingly) didn’t fix the stutters, or even improve them. They did, however, manage to introduce some all new bugs (eg; the way equipped weapons now show when LW tools are equipped) and broke a heap of addons with changes they made to their default UI code.

Great way to prioritise!

Or the default UI code could have had bugs and could be leading into things like increased CPU usage. UIs eat up a lot more resources in MMO style games than people think. So I’d actually take that as a sign that they are looking for angles to optimize the CPU bottlenecking.

It was actually changes to allow the micro menu bar and bag bars to be customised further. Again, not criticizing their desire to improve things but rather questioning their priority of minor feature additions over major bug fixes.

EDIT: Credit where credit is due, it does appear that the freeze upon login has been fixed. (still testing…)

Flooding them with Tickets is not the Answer , you will just get the same Reply. Have you seen the Amount of Posts and Threads on Technical Support? Regarding all aspects of support in need. You have to Remember this is an “annoyance” issue not a Game Breaking issue thus the inaction of Bliz.

Well, here you go. Sub has less than a month left, doubt this will make any difference but at least I have tried giving you everything I can.

24 hours left on sub, not paying for a 20 year old game that doesn’t have the bare minimum optimization. Fire the idiot thats responsible for the game’s performance, simple as that.

The topic hasn’t closed since October because not a month goes by it’s not filled with comments like “still happening”, so the consistent replies keep it open.

Something weird going on with Raz fight. Literally 120 fps before fight, then it drops to 25 during fight and I ended up dying, then fps went back to about 100 (with raid still full casting on boss).

Same issue here… I had spikes and stutters. But it had stay in the 100’s. In old raids I held 165+. And according to my AMD software my average was 151.5 fps.

Now after the update old raids I dropped to 44fps. I have glitches like crazy. and in daily leveling and old areas I have as low as 40-50.

My laptop is an ASUS ROG Strix Advantage Edition.
