Extreme lag during Time Gladiator


 

Posted

As the title says, about halfway through Time Gladiator my game starts chugging along at like one frame per second. Pretty much unplayable from there until it clears. There is no particular time where it starts or ends, and during Casino Heist everything runs 100% fine. Altering settings does nothing to prevent or fix the issue.

Never had other problems running anything else in this game, save for the usual MS raid lag, and even then it's not as bad as this. Really wish Paragon Studios would stop expecting people to upgrade their computer every few months to handle their new content.

Hi,

Not trying to sound like a smart alec, but I think it is important that the game does evolve and this includes improvment to the graphics. This is ultimatly gonna have an effect on some peoples systems. Note my machine is over a couple of years old, and I have not had any problems at all with lag in these events, so I think you may need to start thinking about upgrading at some point.

I think that if the game is to survive, it will become better looking, and this not only includes the graphics themselves, but the fx too. Infact maybe it is some of the new flashy power sets which are the cause of the slowdown? Anyway, not what you were expecting to hear no doubt, but they sadly cant hold up the refurbishment of the game until you get a new machine, and I think most people prefer the new stuff to the old by a mile, so dont think you will get huge amounts of agreement on this one.....

P.s As I mentioned my machine being 2 years old and it running Gladiator fine, I dont think it is fair to say they expect people to upgrade every few months, because that is clearly not true. It could also be a specific glitch with your pc and this mission, that nobody else is even getting to be fair, and judging by the lack of posts agreeing with you, this seems quite likely. lets face it, if everyone was finding this unplayable, there would be a rather long post on the forums by now....

We are not mindreaders, we don't know what you have or how your PC is configured. Anyone with good tech knowledge won't even look at this with just a vague description when it could be so many possible things.
