KToS General Thread v4.0

Client performance mainly, yes. The NA server is usually fine during peak hours, anyway.

This game reaaally shouldn’t require the specs that it does though. It dips far more than any game I’ve played that would be considered high quality, and especially when you have 5 people hitting about 15+ enemies at once. This game’s coding is terrible and it always has been.

And yeah, while it’s the only solution to the problem atm, players really shouldn’t have to compensate that much for the largest of this game’s shortcomings lmao

This single change worth more than the whole “rework” done a couple of months ago.

Still waiting for Prakriti to hit flying mobs and having a proper scaling/damage/enhance attribute. And also for them to fix the sh*t they’ve done with Possession.

Maybe 2020. Maybe only 1 year more. December 2020… who knows.

I wouldn’t go as far as to say the game requires high specs, but it most certainly helps to have a top of the line processor.

60s Prana makes the Plague Doctor/Sadhu look a lot more attractive.

There’s definitely improvements to be made… I didn’t want to sound like the game is perfect. I’m mostly just comparing to what it’s been like in the years before. It used to be very bad, and the improvements they’ve done have made a large difference.

It’s definitely still not at the point it could or should be, but it’s playable and gotten a lot better.

You can even see in this video of the new CMs that was already previously linked in this thread. This is CM stage 7, which as we have described, is quite difficult and end game party content. There’s a lot of magic classes in this party and they’re in a tight space with a lot of monsters. Despite this, the FPS is typically around 50-60, sometimes dipping into the 40’s, and 30 at the minimum (that I saw). This is certainly a lot better than many MMOs in party content. They’re also using no addons, which many players use to improve performance even further, while still recording footage of the game which would have a toll on the performance.

Granted, I’m not aware of the specs of the computer of the individual, but it shows that things are improving all the time.

agree with @Tankhime, i can play smoothly Witcher 3, Resident evil 2 remake, Sekiro, but this game apparently require more specs than those AAA games

MMORPGs always have a different set of requirements and a more diverse performance bandwidth. They are heavily CPU bound and are dynamic because the experience changes wildly with the addition of online play and other players being added in any scenario. The games you listed are GPU bound, solo experiences that are tightly designed and built around specific scenes that they can optimize.

The online play for many console games, even, will result in similar performance decreases. MMORPGs are typically more difficult to optimize however due to the massive nature of them. Those games also have millions of dollars as their development budget (AAA games). In fact, all 3 of those games you listed run anywhere from 30 to 60 FPS on consoles, which is identical to the performance seen in that CM7 (which just proves it’s an acceptable standard performance target used for many games, and unsurprising for an MMORPG).

nop the game is just trash performance, they cant even run 40 or 60 fps on pvp maps, isn’t an excuse of budget to make the game was years of bad choices that made the game what it is right now.

i agree with you except this part

i mean, my 2015 PC can run all 3 of those AAA game optimally, but lag so much at CM6+ with party spamming skills that everyone in my party already type “tyfp” while the timer still has 5 minute left fighting the boss. It turn out my screen is 5 minute late compared to them. I even cant pick&submit crystal at feud.

I think bong tos use a far much better PC than mine

if you have a decent processor you can run 5man content decently, the required system described on TOS steam page is i5/8gb ram so I don’t think people with this specs should have much problems with 5man party content;

That Possession thing really boogles my mind. I’m not a Sadhu player, but there was really nothing wrong with this skill and it remained one of the best tools in the classes kit for a long time.

IMO Possession got screwed due to IMC’s plans to make Sadhu focus more on Out-of-Body and its related skills. The planned Sadhu reworks were completely different from what Sadhu actually got (except for implementing a small part of the Possession change that screwed it up when there was nothing wrong with it) and ultimately never fixed the issues that the reworks were supposed to fix.

Such a shame that a rather simple buff to make Prana have 100% up-time feels much better than whatever numerous reworks IMC actually implemented to Sadhu.

Only problem possession had, for me, was low damage considering that it is a channeling skill, so you are committed to it and can’t do nothing during the skill execution. It could use a better tick rate, or multiplier, but oh well, rework shenanigans.

At least, even with low damage, possession was even capable of stop the action of minor bosses (mainly CM and dungeon ones). With the new mechanic, it is just plain trash. Don’t even think it is a 1 point wonder.

Please stay on topic, sir! This is ktos general thread, not crevox war thread.

Btw, has anyone know the average price of vaivora weapon in ktos market?

are we gonna get moringponia raid next week?
isnt it about time?
i ve been holding myself from investing in drakonas pasi since i want an int version of it

Since no one is putting the link:

IMC: Makes Zealot, a class whose sole purpose, really, is to specialize in damage boosts, critical hits and critical damage

Also IMC: Makes an attribute for all base Wizards for literal critical chance cap 50% amount of minimum critical chance that applies after normal critical chance

:tired:

Also, wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas! :christmas_tree: :christmas_tree: :christmas_tree:
