Path of Exile is a MAJESTIC incline

[Tacgnol]

It fixed a performance a lot. FPS aren't that much higher but game doesn't crap under itself when actions start to happen like it used to.

Have they fixed the stability issues? People on the POE forums were reporting that although the Vulkan renderer does generally have better performance, it also crashes more often.

 

[Gerrard]

I didn't notice the better performance at all, and there are multiple issues, like the fact that you have to play with fucking vsync on.

 

[Kjaska]

General performance has been improving every league

Yeah no.
Quite opposite.
Fixing the league after initial mess does not make it a optimized game in general

No yeah.
You are blind and ignorant.
PoE allows for way more interactions between its different mechanics, than any other competitor in the same genre does. And it allows you to go very very fast, while it performs these calculations. If you would know even the slightest bit about computers, you would understand that polynomial calculations are very hard on the CPU and that indeed only a very optimized game could allow you play at that speed with so much going on. If PoE wasn't optimized as fuck, any xbox would simply burst into flames, whenever you would shoot a pack of monsters with lightning arrow + gmp.

Optimized like a piece of shit. https://i.imgur.com/CFHYU8e.png - empty map, spew more random crap you know nothing about. There's no excuse for that kind of fps. How about the insane increase from going 720p: https://i.imgur.com/Mr0GsJl.png.

Retards like you that defend every bullshit are one of the reasons their coders lack so much common sense. And their fucking forums/reddit are full of knights like you.

What a poofter, does it crash or not? if it does what's the point caring about polyamorous calculations?

 

[Gerrard]

My luck this league is absolutely unethical.

:Best deal!:

I hope the next league is a flop because I would like to play some other games too.

Your example actually proves my point, because 2 years ago you would have had 5 fps in that map due to all old burning ground effects. Before my recent upgrade, I was playing PoE on something resembling a toaster for multiple leagues. In Abyss I would get frequent freezes of up to 5 seconds, even in "runescape" mode. But each subsequent league I would gain ~5 fps until I could turn off the runescape mode and rely on just the dynamic resolution system to prevent freeze ups. I mean they literally _just_ released the Vulkan Beta that stabilizes performance. If that isn't a sign of continuing optimization, then what the fuck is, you nigger?

Also LMAO at your notion that people like me are the only thing preventing the qualified opinion of the likes of you to reach the coders in GGG and make them finally start optimizing their engine.

If they would have some fucking common sense that scene should have run at hundreds of fps on a 10 yr old PC. It sure looks the part. Game runs like crap even on good machines and instead of imposing some fucking limits to the art/sfx teams they go full retard ahead every league?
They bragged some patches ago how their optimizations allow them to show thousands of particles on screen. How about realizing there's no point in doing that and have some realistic targets.

And yes, people like you are a real issue because GGG is a business so they prioritize resources. While they have monopoly basically on the market, people won't really stop playing the game in protest. So stupid knighting like yours pollutes the only sources of info they have on serious issues.

The most frustrating thing is they know the pitfalls of their own engine, and yet they keep adding mechanics that they struggle to handle.

Blight was a perfect example, they knew the league was going to cause server load issues and, according to their manifesto, pushed ahead anyway.

If your engine and infrastructure isn't capable of doing something with acceptable performance or latency, maybe don't do it?

"Optimized". Got new pc 2 years ago. Everything at max. Few leagues later - lower your settings or be oneshoted before map even loads.

Thing is, most of the time they haven't actually made any graphical improvements. The engine has just got more bogged down with clutter.

They actually do impose limits on their sfx artists, but I guess you missed that talk because of your weekly Redditors Anonymous group complain session. Yes, the game doesn't have the performance of CSGO, LoL or even Diablo 3. I never disputed that. But it is getting better. It wouldn't run on shitty ass consoles otherwise.

There are many other ARPGs now, which you can play, which do not suffer from the same performance issues that PoE has. Why don't YOU show us who is boss and play those instead. I will be the last person to keep you from that. Except most people still prefer to play PoE. Maybe, just maybe, GGG didn't prioritize performance and instead prioritized something that is more important. Gameplay.

Yes, let us always play it safe and only do what we 100% know we are capable of and never take any risks. Because promises of stable server performance is what gets people excited to play a new league, right? Blight is now in the game and isn't causing any server issues. If you were the head of GGG, we would all be playing Grim Dawn.

Sounds like a classic case of downloading too much gay porn.

 

[abija]

Stop bringing up consoles, it runs beyond shit on hardware where much better looking games even run 1440p or 4k. Good thing they implemented render scaling without even bothering to check the real gains.

"They actually do impose limits on their sfx artists"
They said that even before legion and lo and behold, such obscenity of sfx that you could barely see anything on screen.

You really sound as though you should be on the Path of Exile subreddit, not the codex.

They all kiss GGG's ass on there, so you should fit right in.

[Mark.L.Joy]

But they talked about it!

 

[eklektyk]

optimisation ??? what fucking optimisation??

you put in map - no juced or anything special and you never know if servers wont shit themselves during it and shitcan it for laughts&giggles

and dont even get me on vulcan - so much work they ut in it that it crashes on trying to load and im not on laptop or intel integrated graphics - much q&a went into it
prob as much as into this legue since we fucking need 300 splinters for their latest abortion of a bos [ sirius was a fucking chore and still is an absolutre abrotion of a boss] but now we get kossis .... another fucking brainfart of some genius at ggg that puts in boss that shits on aoe attacks and persistent on ground debiffs/damage in a such claustrophobic so colled "arenas" that this figt is either you spend 4 mirrors on dps gear or dont even bother opening this shit...

im playing most broken op build ive EVER played and beside slowdowns and hiccups due ot overload of shit on screen [ most of withc you can even see coz another brainfart for legue mechanic being grey on grey ] and kosis shits on persistent fuckery on ground that after a moment you simply cant moce around in this abomination of an "arena" and you die coz geting hit with his debuff stack is insta gib [ and yes iam 100% ailment imune thank you very much for asking but ggg in their brainfurty brainstorming session in addition to adding TWO fucking tiers of env ailments added boss specific shit that you cannon step in and live but ggg knows better - case in point legion rainbow fartshitstain and everything else]

yeah ggg knows better and most op build have no problem with kossis - if you cant spend 4 mirrors on gear and/or want to play something else than 2 builds this legue - fuck you and go play something better /end

 

[janior]

you seem upset

 

[eklektyk]

nah

im a generally mellow fellow

if i was upset you would notice it

 

[Gerrard]

Yeah, the Simulacrum is fucking awful. When will these geniuses realize that having random mods on such high level content is retarded? It was true for Delve bosses, it was true for Synthesis bosses, it's true for FUCKING ERADICATOR FUCK YOU, and it's still true here.
And they now added those new ailments to the enemies that you have no way of getting rid of outside of complete immunity that you can only get in a few places.
I did 20 waves once without much trouble like a month ago, two days ago I want to spend all the splinters I had and I couldn't fucking finish the last wave because it had +3 projectiles, brittle, and a bunch of other shit. I got one shot by those guys that zap you from the edge of the screen, because apparently that lighting attack is both a projectile and has AoE. And Kosis with extra projectiles, yeah have fun with that.
Sirus is a little bitch compared to this.

Also, is it just my shitty luck, or can you only get one Simulacrum specific unique per run? I thought they were boss drops.

We're farming
Literally

It's Synthesis again+Bestiary crafting+making monsters like Metamorpth

In addition, there are many new notable and keystones passives, which include both fan-favourites from Timeless Jewels and even some entirely new ones.

Why? They gonna remove these jewels? On nerf/limits even more?

This new renderer comes alongside continued graphics technology improvements such as a new Bloom system that is used extensively in the Harvest league.

What is this, 2004-2007? Wouldn't be surprised if they make that crap impossible to remove by not giving proper graphic setting, like they did with other.

Wanna bet the 4 colors correspond to fire/cold/lightning/chaos ?

My surname is means gardener in english so I have to play this league it seems...

Bloom, the reason to disable postprocessing.
All that talk during exilecon about them learning from games like rdr2 and other shit and then bam! new bloom mofos...
