Elite Hunt Mobs, and rendering (LOOK SE!)

[Dhex]

There are two simple solutions:
1) Get a better computer that can actually handle the load during prime time when "everyone" goes nuts and zerg even B-ranks
2) Do your hunting at other times

Your complaint is like... someone designs a bus for 50 passengers, but you decide to cram in 100+ passengers and proceed to complain that the bus runs badly.

Calm down, take a deep breath, and if 1 and 2 is not "acceptable" to you, wait a week or two for the most impatient people to get their stuff and there will be much less people doing it at prime time.

Improving their computer won't do anything about the maximum number of PC & NPC models that the game allows to load. It's the engine limitation or rather it's the current engine's biggest issue.

I've got a high-end PC that runs everything on Max even in crowds and anything excess of 150+ models will start turning some models invisible - this includes the Hunt marks & monsters.

It should be fixed so that by default it will prioritize Monster models over excess PC models - they didn't give Hunt model priority in the engine like with the fixes they made on Odin and Behemoth.

For SE is more important that egis and minions load before monsters.

The priority seems to go summons > random people > party members > random mobs around > the S rank you want to attack, but oh look, it disappeared again to load one new egi that just got summoned.

Part of it is their grid layout, they have said in the past that it loads by grids, so even if a party member is 10 feet away, if they crossed an invisible grid line, it will load everything in the grid you are in before it will start to load another.

For Odin and Behemoth they made changes so that they could be displayed despite the grid limitations.
For S-rank they only changed display priority.
Getting the same grid changes for S-rank probably requires more work than to simply change the priority value.

It's poor implementation, they should have gotten it right the first time. Does no one remember 2.1 and how it was delayed a few weeks, Yoshi's response was that he didn't want to put anything out half done, if it wasn't ready on the day of release, then they would push it back, maybe they should go back to that, because it is extremely frustrating getting broken content, then wait as they scramble with halfassed hot fixes over the next month.
