Issues with FPS since patch

[Jib]

Since this patch I get below 60 fps in city areas. Since before today I was always ok. I run a rtx 2080 at low 2k (WQHD - 2304x1296). Always been great no issues anywhere. Always above 60 fps. I have tried raids and its fine its only in city areas. Anyone with same issue? (I have my Nvidia upgrades all done)

More people in cities when you are logged in? Cities have lower framerate than anywhere due to amount of players.


Also, that isn't 4k, that's less than 2k technically.

No. I have been here since Heavensward, multiple expansions.... No.. this is something weird. Could be my end. Just want to know if anyone is experiencing the same. Only felt it now since this new patch! ... Just want to know if ppl experiencing the same, if not then its my end. Thank you

I noticed many micro stutters in the game now. I just logged in (EU) and running around Gridania (which is practically empty atm) i'm getting many micro stutters wtf?

Yesterday before 6.21 the game was running perfectly at a locked 60 fps even with many people in Gridania. In fact the game has always ran great for me for the past 2 years I been playing. This is the first time I have experienced micro stuttering in FF14. Basically as far as I can tell, the game now suffers from poor frame pacing issues.

I did a expert roulette and it does it in the dungeons too.

At first I thought I was seeing things but nope performance is kinda choppy now for some weird reason.

I went to the gold saucer as same things.

Again it's not an issue with "many people" seeing as the servers are literally dead atm.

It's a shame more people aren't talking about this issue. It's not game breaking for sure...but it is pretty annoying.

I lowered my resolution from 1440p to 1080 doesn't help, I lowered my graphical settings nope doesn't help. The micro stutters don't go away no matter what I do.

Turn off dynamic resolution, it's broken right now and causes huge stutters.

It is off. I never turn that option on. By "off" I mean the box is ticked off. Unless I need to tick it on to turn it off?

Something is wrong with the game ever since 6.21 launch.

Even when all of europe is sleeping and I go to an empty Gridania with all graphics turned to low or off at 1080p i still get the same big stutters for no reason. Its like the stutters are "built" in to the game now lmao. Keep in mind that before 6.21 launched my game ran perfectly at 1440p with max settings at 60fps.

Dynamic Resolution is still in Beta, make sure it is off. Grey filled is Off, Yellow is On.

Try enabling dynamic resolution or change the amount of characters on screen to normal. It may just be a bunch of people logged on. The engine has always struggled a bit with large crowds.

I've noticed no difference on either of my machines. I'm just wondering though, they said they are doing some tweaking with the rendering process (can't remember the exact words they used, I'm no developer either), is it possible there's some issues with some setups and software? Also, which CPU are you running, it's typically more of a limiting factor on XIV in regards to pacing and 1% lows. My desktop is an R5 5600X, RTX3060 on 32 gigs of ram, game is installed on a SATA SSD. I haven't noticed any difference on CPU and GPU utilization, temps, or anything, always hitting 70fps to 180fps in the various areas, 1440p Ultra (HBAO+ Standard, Quality looks worse imo and eats resources) both before and after the patch. My older GTX 1070 laptop sees no difference either, HOWEVER...I did get a CTD this morning on it while on Island Sanctuary, looking at the Event Logger looks like stupid Apple Bonjour service took a dump...but...it was a weird crash. No error code, game locked up with a constant tone from the last sound played, then went to coloured static flickering onscreen (early G-sync does this sometimes when going fullscreen to windowed) that lasted about 30 seconds, then ended up back on the WINDOWS login screen. After a reboot, uninstalling Bonjour, I played for a couple hours without incident. Long story short, check temps and utilization, look for anything weird or changes to the norm if you usually monitor these things.
