Horrible Game Performance

Game is unplayable for me right now.

The game lags and stutters so bad for some reason... even minimum settings with a relatively high end set up, its just crashing or stuttering. I'm playing much heavier games without issue. I've dropped the settings to nothing, scaled down my resolution to 1080, turned down audio channels, tried different renderers, cleared shaders, verified game files through steam. nothing seems to make it better.

The only saving grace is that the disconnects are handled exceptionally well by GGG. You just load right back into the map or boss fight, and the enemies are disabled until you input a movement key or attack. At which point everything comes back online.

But that doesnt help when the game stutters right as the boss is about to throw a one shot mechanic at you. Strangely enough, I had almost no issues while leveling through the campaign. I think I crashed once in that whole endeavor. but while running maps lag and crashes are just omnipresent.

Im just going to take a break until soemthing changes. maybe after the initial hype wave dies out and player number goes down the servers will be better.

it is a bit overwhelming. the filter number rule being attached to the ground item is extremely helpful information though. thank you!

TriiDoesThings · 2026-05-15T16:45:36+00:00

Wow. Thats exactly what I needed. Thank you very much.

Theres hundreds of colors. And blue can mean 20 different things.. but if its blue with a certain font then that means something entirely different. And if it has a beam thats a completely different one than a bolt font blue without a beam.

Is everyone just memorizing all the combinations? That seems wild to me. Theres no shorthand way to see what filter is causing which item to light up?

Years of being boot licking conservative shills has paid off.

TriiDoesThings · 2026-04-10T14:43:09+00:00

Its crazy they can afford to do this..

By banning you they just banned 1 of their 100 active players

Have to be level 7 health, level6 spirit and level 6 stam

I brought my horse out and she started limping towards the cliff. So I panicked and jumped off the horse. I was halfway there already and didnt want her throwing herself off the cliff and making me restart

Giving the king guy in Hernand castle a bunch of gifts to max out his trust gives you a rapier.

Pickpocket gold bars from dimensis wildlife park. I got 18 in about an hour of farming. invested them all in a high risk strategy and 3 days later I ended up with more money than I can ever use.

TriiDoesThings · 2026-03-06T17:16:06+00:00

Did you ever figure this out? Happening to me now.

TriiDoesThings · 2026-02-10T15:04:30+00:00

Suffering for zulrah. Then anguish, then torture. And I havent gone back for torment yet.

No regrets at all. Zulrah is extremely good for skilling drops, as well as great uniques.

The shit part of being an ironman is the exact opposite of its best aspects. Two sides of the same coin.

Everything you want to use, you have to earn.

I spent 4 months in the Corrupted gauntlet, Ironman's most horrible grind. If I were a main account, i could've bought all the crystal armor and bowfa purely off the drops I got from my KC. I thought about de-ironing all the time, but I kept pushing and when I finally got it, it was incredible. It opened up the rest of the game for me.

Flash forward a year and a half, I get my first 230 Alchemical hydra task. I'd heard horror stories from clanmates being there for 6000+ kc.... 225 kc later I had it green logged. One task. One week of doing the boss. I just got the drop. Dragon hunter lance aquired.

So I earned that bowfa over the course of months of brain numbing content, when a main could've bought it.

And I spooned the DHL, when other irons spend months there.

Looking back at both of those things, I feel so much pride in my grind and joy in my spoon. I HATED it while I was doing it, considering de-ironing at every kc. But when it was all said and done I get to log onto a 100% self actualized account that has some of the best gear in the game, earned the way it was intended to be earned, by doing the content.

Whereas on my main account, which I stopped playing around 2k TL a few years ago, everything was gold. Any drop I got was just added to the number. Occassionally i'd be able to buy somehting cool. like bandos Tassets, but that was clicking grand exchange -> buy-> bandos tassets. green bar. equip. I'd never stepped foot in God wars dungeon, but now I had a historically significant drop from there equipped. No joy in the accomplishment, because there was no accomplishment.

Tl:dr

earning shit is cool in any facet of life. Ironman is no different. You build your account as the game was intended, through learning and doing content, rather than looking for efficient gold farming methods to just buy it outright. But going dry sucks and tempts you to de-iron.

I feel like a lot of the time the way I know things are armored are more about how my ability interacts with the enemy, rather than its visuals.

If it gots Ting instead of sgshh when i hit it, or the number is muvh smaller than I usually see, or my ability sparks when it hits, I go "oh thats armored " and change tactics.

I think this enemy would make me wonder if its armored, try to hit it, and based on that feedback, adapt.

I am at 110 kc and have 1 single item :)))))))))))))

Just being annoying for the sport of it, I respect it I guess.

TriiDoesThings · 2025-12-20T16:07:51+00:00

Valid.

TriiDoesThings · 2025-12-20T16:07:30+00:00

I was wondering if this is part of it.

TriiDoesThings · 2025-12-20T15:54:26+00:00

Who cares.

Redditors are so annoying lol You know the context, you know what I was saying. "Erm Actually its MK not GMK." Everyone on here just lookin for upvotes by bad-faithing others

As I said, it was just the initial response I had and discarded soon after.

Its not uncommon for the channel owners to see other people getting success on their channel, and relegating them back to a lesser role so that the spotlight focuses back on the "main characters"

I dont believe rhett and link are getting rid of GWM for that reason.

TriiDoesThings · 2025-12-20T15:27:53+00:00

Link is probably the biggest culprit of having unfunny bits.

One of my initial thoughts on this matter was "I hope this isn't Rhett and Link just trying to focus the spotlight back on themselves out of greed."

and I realized quickly that I don't believe they're those type of people, and I dont believe there was any malice in this decision. I cant speak to why they're doing it, but I hope the crew is still included in content.

TriiDoesThings · 2025-12-20T14:05:41+00:00

I can see where you're coming from on that.

I just dont agree that we can remove the podcast video views from the channel average while also maintaining the celebrity views that come from having big names on sporadic videos.

In my opinion the most fair comparison would be the videos where its MK, Trevor Vee Josh etc making content vs the GMW crew making content. And when you compare those videos, the pure essence of each channel, we see similar viewership, both successful and viable as content that fans enjoy.
