[Dev] Overtaxation of PC Hardware

[MonsieurVerde]

The problem is this game does not need to be slowly reworked it needs to be done by June, Summer here in the US especially a summer like we had last year with a vast majority of it in the High 80's to Low/Mid 90's where I live will be murder on my system. I mean Hell my wife made a comment about how cold the rest of the house is compared to my office right now, and I have only had XIV running today on my PC, this game is so Bad I can heat a 12x12 room to comfort in the winter time just playing XIV...

Now I am no expert on PC code but to me that's a red flag... I am sorry the answer to our problems should not be Drop more Cash into your PC and water cool it to resolve these issues. Right now between the hours of 11am EST and 8pm EST I will not be able to play XIV due to heat issues unless I run my AC 24/7 this summer which i am sorry i should not have to do because SE does not know how to code a game.

Err...how is it their fault that you CHOOSE to run your AC? O_o You can easilly tone down your OC and Graphics card and play with closer to defautl settings if you are so concerned about heat.

Because I don't have my System OC, these temperatures are default temps on an Air cooled system. I have no options but to do that if I want to play this summer, and I am sorry that is unacceptable, Stop defending SE for a poorly coded client when 30 ppl have told you this is an issue.

Again, blame nature or blame your set-up. Since almost nothing runs at 85C with proper cooling at default levels. O_o Even if they did code it optimally you would still be limited by Ambient temps.


Duelle, you are probably hearing your hard drive. Since it is accessed so much....
