I'm very upset about Div 2's combat

No shit? They included a 30 FPS cap in DKS and you get, like, 30 FPS? This is fucking astonishing. Maybe you should write an article about it, alternatively you could search for the ini tweak to remove the cap.

Patch adds a toggle.

OMFG, but what if the game runs worse afterwards? Will we ever be able to toggle it off again? PLease email David Gaider for advice on the subject.

I am not complayining I get 30. But capped at 30 or 60, the game should be more fluid.

I commented in a "Tought it was slow, but it's running like it should" manner.

You probably have an option ticked that makes stuff like animations or shadows update only once a few frames.

You need to install a hotfix to disable the fps cap. I'm getting 80-100 FPS @ 5760x1080 (3x 1080P monitors via nVidia surround).

Before the hotfix (and the latest patch), I was locked at 30fps too.

Of course, if you didn't remove the game from any inventory - then you're probably shit outa' luck.

Same here, luckily I stopped noticing it a few hours in. The jerkiness, animations and camera certainly make a rough first impression.

Again, jerky animations are caused by a retarded menu option you have to disable. As for frame-cap, I'm keeping mine on. It seems to help with framerate consistency, and my box isn't so awesome that turning it off would make a positive difference.

Does ranged attacks get more balanced later in the game?

I find that I can kite most enemies, jumping back like a maniac everytime they get close, while I would be butchered in melee. They should have included a block button...

Still overpowered in some situations, but there are enough homing arrow attacks (how I hate them) and unblockable spells to be dangerous.
