It seems to be very related to chat messages and overall time your client running. Very often client restart helps a lot with performance.
However its hard to argue that it is not working very well - they should fix it at some point, especially considering it is even not a real 3D game, only like 2.5D.

a; we know.
b; that costs them money in KR, so don’t count on much of that any time soon.
They need to optimize it asap, since it hurts one of the core features of the game. Boss hunting.

This is honestly pretty ridiculous, they really gotta optimize this game or else, lose potential cash shop payers due to both the frustration of fps drops and the lack of any comments by the developers on the issue, will make people think the game is just a cash grab.
yea, they’ve gotta fix everything, and they’ve gotta fix it right now. and it’s not like a single staff member is working on a single thing at all.
if they don’t turn it around by like TOMORROW, the entire game will be dead before the weekend. yep.
Mabinogi, another korean game, still needs optimization.
to save you from having to google it, it was released in around 2004.
but go ahead and hold your breath waiting for it.
Plenty of Korean made mmos out there that got optimized either upon demand or done over time. Their are plenty of paying customers who will take their money elsewhere if they are frustrated by choppiness and bad optimization. Koreans may like things as they are, the west is of a different mind set.
Also, dont need to google it, I been playing mmos longer than you.
It really is quite terrible, and difficult not to be frustrated about. I won’t describe the how, but looking into the game’s assets reveals quite a few ugly things. They took so many shortcuts, and achieved the bare minimum to have the game function. I don’t think there were any kind of dedicated polish passes at all, and if there were they achieved nothing.
Simply put, it wasn’t a worthwhile investment for them. They opted for their paid workers to slap the game together, and once it ran, moved onto content creation. The foundation for the game barely stands, but they have no problems stacking it higher and higher. This will vastly limit what they can do with it, but unfortunately this is the nature of the beast with Asian MMOs.
Yeah the performance dive when even a dozen active people are on screen is pathetic, and when bots can effectively freeze your game by spamming at the speed of light…
Hopefully we can pitch enough of a fit to get some fixes coming our way.
It’s absolutely ridiculous that mere CHAT can lag the client. Even with a spam filter, I don’t think it’d fix the core issue.
And then it seems like every player on screen cuts your FPS in half. Each. You can also tell when the entire map is about to spawn mobs all at once because the client will freeze up right before it happens.
I’ve never seen a game regularly range between 2 and 70 fps during actual gameplay before.

that’s a nice claim, despite having no facts to back it up.
Iv’e noticed since I have been using an SSD it’s been much improved.
this actually makes a lot of sense. it might be a simple issue of having to drag up the art resources all the time, and not keeping them in memory later.
I have ssd and have lag issues.
I’m pretty sure KR devs is just lazy asf. they only make sure that the game is playable enough then proceed to other important things of the game and leave the optimization issues later on. Every KR MMo’s coming out now are poorly optimized sigh.
so true actually… it’s kind of scary; tera, lineage series, literally every game even gw2 was at start then was improved a little, aion, all dem games. It’s getting 챙피에
Yea, your definitely an idiot. Sighs, lets pick things apart since your from the WoW generation.
“Doesn’t have alot of fanservice” More like none, other than its a “successor to ragnarok”. The benchmark comparison, Ragnarok Online, cant really do that anymore, this is 2016, standards are raised, and with the current state of the game, all the free to play players in the world aint gonna matter, if no ones paying ■■■■ due to getting ■■■■ in return.
Since you like getting your ass kicked, here is some PROPER points, since your an idiot fanboy, concerning TERA.
No, TERA was not well optimized, your an idiot, and whoever think its was optimized, is also, an idiot. The game would have massive FPS drops in cities for even the beefiest of rigs, most of the PVP Bgs would drop high end computers down to 30 fps, or worse, 20ish, seen it happen alot, raids involving 15 players or more could cause such massive FPS drops that alot of players wont be able to see the needed animation of the bosses to react.
The game is running off DX9 and 32bit, and the only reason, TERA, stayed alive this long was due to what I listed before, and they went on Steam, suckering in alot of new players, who gladly spent the cash shop money, before realizing all too long what a mistake they made when they got to end game.
Oh wait, sorry, was I supposed to feel sorry for your mental handicap? My bad, seems you don’t know how to make a good argument, since you royally screwed up telling me that TERA is optimized, get out of this board, before you get laughed out of the room.
TERA is optimized…lol…what a joke.
Sorry but this is not going to happen soon since it’s F2P and soon P2W as I said before. The first thing they work on is whats makes the most money like costumes, upgrades, etc. Second is either bugs or the game.Because the game itself isn’t what makes the money, it’s the items.
i can’t even take any of your post seriously when you make this mistake three times in it.
nevermind that if you ignore everything else, the female Peltasta’s skirt is nothing but fanservice, let alone the character art for pretty much every single shop-keeper.
nevermind that the engine that ToS uses was developed for a game that is now a decade old, kind of soundly killing your argument that it will be optimized “over time”.
nevermind that people are already begging to buy more TP, ruining the idea that no one’s paying ____.
nevermind that i ran TERA on a decade old system with the graphics at 1920x1080, at around medium+ settings, while your so called “beefy” computers choked out.
nevermind all that, i just can’t waste any more time arguing with someone who doesn’t care enough, or doesn’t know enough to do better than make himself look like a fool saying “your an idiot”.
i agree the game runs like ■■■■ right now, + with all the bots ontop of that i decided to take a break from this game to play dark souls 3
