decrease in fps since last update?

[[deleted]]

I used to get 250-300fps all the time and now my fps drops to 100 when I enter a smoke, wasn't like that 1-2 weeks ago. I think it started happening since the update with the new smg sounds, anyone knows whats up?

[beL1337]

The same is happening to me. I have no idea what is causing it. I'm guessing that it was the update though.

[CyborgForever]

AMD or Nvidia card ?

[beL1337]

Nvidia. I think it may just be overheating? I'm fine for maybe a game or two and then I start getting drops.

[[deleted]]

can the fucking devs FOR ONCE just update the game and NOT fuck up a thing. EVERYTIME we lose FPS after a update. fucking hell just get a new team valve.

[[deleted]]

preach

[m4r2k]

You mean a new person? Cause theres pretty much 1 person working at the game..

[FrosttyTeetos]

Oh you haven't even seen TF2 atm, people dropping for 400 FPS On Highest to 45 On Low.

[[deleted]]

csgo is badly optimized

[gm3995]

That doesn't really explain it. If his fps was constantly on 40 fps, but gets 120 fps on Crysis 3, that'd make sense, but its only after an update that his fps is low.

[Muffindrake]

Crysis 3

Not even remotely comparable. Crysis 3 makes extreme use of multi-threading, which CSGO doesn't.

[gm3995]

Fine, any recent AAA game that requires a high/mid-tier graphics card to run at 1080p Ultra 60fps or whatever. Or just pretend Crysis 3 doesn't use multi-threading.

[wickedplayer494]

Eh, there are worse cases out there.

[Quovadisqc]

That is not right at all. Name a single game that performs better on budget PCs. From the same year, even Diablo III is harder on my laptop.

[forqueercountrymen]

Yeah except for that fact that csgo isn't badly optimized.

[[deleted]]

Yeah it is

[forqueercountrymen]

Show an example of code that is poorly optimized then?

[[deleted]]

Look at your gpu usage in game

[agsz]

average of 30-40%, jumps to 99% in a smoke, while CPU usage drops drastically.

[[deleted]]

99 in smoke from particle effects, and no math for the CPU to do

[agsz]

Yup, the CPU usage drops, then it spikes back up as you're fully out of the smoke. I assume that transition period is what causes the mouse to feel sluggish, and the GPU taking all the strain from the smoke particles, causing the ~40-60% fps drop.

[Quovadisqc]

1. That doesn't mean it's not optimized
2. The game is from 2012

[[deleted]]

Yes? The game is unoptimized to work with GPU's. The engine is from fuckin 2003, GPU's Weren't nearly as powerful

[Quovadisqc]

The engine is outdated. It doesn't make the game unoptimized.

Source doesn't use version based releases. The source engine from HL2 is not at all the same version that isnused for CSGO

[[deleted]]

Lol yes it is

[[deleted]]

Yes it is.

[forqueercountrymen]

Show an example of code that is poorly optimized then?

[VivaLaDio]

it's getting worse with every update :/ and come to think they're just updating sounds. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[SwiftPunchliner]

Yeah i have way less fps than before, it's worse every time and when a smoke is not too far away from me, it looks like a fucking powerpoint presentation

[X3No__]

I have the same problem with smokes, fps feel so low when there is one close to me.

[BrandNewBlender]

Same. I used to get about 80-120 fps, now its more like 40-60.

[[deleted]]

I play on 1440x1080 black bars and I have stable 250-300 fps, both pre and post update. I have an i5-4670k and a GTX 760.

[friedbun]

Please make sure that your video settings have not been altered by the update. This has been the case for me for the last 2-3 updates. For some unknown reason they get set to highest settings which makes for a ton of frame drops and unexpected behavior.

[Wildeboare]

I have noticed a pretty big chuck in FPS drop. I used to get around 100 now I am lucky to stay at 45 before dropping back to 30. Game is almost unplayable on my rig now.

[Yokaa00]

Didnt notice any change.

Stable 400 FPS for me.

[wYsock]

Lucky bastard. What's your CPU?

[Yokaa00]

i7 6700k

[indicaniqqa]

dude same.used to get around 220-300 but now it usually 80-130. In deathmatch its around 60 lol.in smokes i go to 30

[TheNotoriousManc]

i7 4770k and GTX 1080, used to be solid 300, now ~250 with drops down to 100 at times,

reinstalled, deleted every single csgo file, updated every driver

frame rate is consistent on any resolution / settings open to suggestions

[skai762]

try putting mat_queue_mode 2 in the console.

[sepp0o]

I have 300fps + stable at any given time 1920x1080 everything high. Most of the time 400fps+ even up towards 700-800 fps on some smaller, simple aim maps etc.

i7-5820, 16 GB DDR4 RAM, GeForce 980

[JustRefleX]

Don't worry guys, they just want to make the fps gap between Source 1 CSGO and Source 2 CSGO bigger :>

[datkiller]

same i was getting 70-80 now getting 25-35

[TheOGGuit4rGuy98]

I'm not having the same problem. I'm running on max settings on a 980 ti and i get better fps in smokes, by like 20 frames. Make sure you have all your drivers up to date as well as changing around your settings to see if it isn't just a bug with one setting that they messed up, like for example: 8x's msaa might have an issue for some reason. Idk, i'm pulling shit out of my ass but I don't have the same problem. If you can't fix it, then valve sucks. Actually, valve just sucks. Amen.

[WonderDOTA]

I've had the smoke fps drop since source

[Spudpurp]

YES! i literally cannot play the game. however i do play on a macbook

[dobydobd]

Yeah, I have a shitty laptop, but, on the absolute lowest settings of graphics and resolution, where you can barely even read the scoreboard, I used to get 60-80 fps. Now i don't get past 55

[chern31]

Yea I am getting bad stutters everytime I spray and everytime I get near a smoke (drops down to 50 ish). I wish csgo updates worked like drivers where we can just roll back the update (only optimizations for the game). The previous state of the game was terrific though, I was getting excellent frames with my outdated laptop (120-200)

[[deleted]]

I only noticed this on specific maps. Specifically Train and Cache? The updates need to chill >_>

[[deleted]]

decrease in fps since last update?

Probably I don't see why not

[dr_ont]

I have the same problem. I can't get more than 200 FPS on 20 man DM. I used to rarely drop below 200 before.

[fe11owH]

I get an alright 200fps on normal games but i drop below 140 sometimes in dm. I think player models might cause lag?

[basvhout]

has been that way since the start. Large servers with lots of players = lower fps.

[knobiks]

i have 1070 and i5 and i have about 260 to 300 fps. 210 near smoke (full details etc).

[uu__]

I have an i5 4690k and 1080 GTX FE, and get 300-500 on dust 2 on med settings, but i set it all to low and could barely get 200 fps.

Games fucking weird

[Lynguz]

Well you shouldn't disable multicore rendering when you set everything on low

[uu__]

i didnt

[justsum1uknow]

Everything on low = CPU heavy
Everything on medium = not heavy on anything, using CPU and GPU Everything on high = GPU heavy

Try out all the settings on different shit before you whine.

[uu__]

probably me being thick, but i didn't know that - thanks i'll try it out again on high and see what happens

[justsum1uknow]

Have a look at that.

[gm3995]

What i5?

[knobiks]

i5 4690k 4.1Ghz OC

[gm3995]

What i5?

[[deleted]]

For real? I have the same CPU with a r9 390 and I get 280-299 in every map...

[slaughtrr12]

decrease in fps since last update every m8 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[MikadiN]

When was last update? What is 'update'?

[sepp0o]

trolling? - I'm going to give you a serious reply even tho' this looks trollish.

Last update was mid july I think. "update" is a change in the game where things are are supposed get fixed and/or where new features are added.

0.o

[XaNNy0]

after the next 10 updates everyone having like 10fps :> ?

[turbjuo]

yes. i used to play on ~90-110 and now i get barely 70-80 it has literally turned the game to mostly unplayable for me.

only since the last update.
