LOW FPS - GTX 660 Ti I5 2500K ~13 fps in towns

[Mashkar]

I would like to ask is there any solution to my problem.

My specs:

Motherboard - ASRock P67 Pro3
Proc - Intel Core I5 2500K
Memory - 2x4Gb DDR3
Graphics - NVIDIA Gforce GTX 660 Ti TOP version.

When I run in the wilds I have ~70 fps... when I go just into the city or a town my fps drop to... 13!!!

I have checked almost all drivers that are for the GPU, updated BIOS, updated motherboard drivers and I still have the same issue. What is interesting - Desktop Normal, Desktop Max - no change at all...

Any ideas what can cause such problems?

I've given up trying to troubleshoot this game. It just doesn't work on PC properly at all.




Just panning the camera nearly halves FPS so clearly something is very wrong with the game.

Yes I saw your screenshots in other threads.

I have the same issue for example.

Running in the wild ~60 fps, sitting in the Town ~23fps. Sitting in the town looking on the crystal 12/13 fps...

There is something horribly wrong.

Same here, although I am not using a card and a rig like yours, at towns and even sanctuaries I suddenly get stutters or >20 fps. At fields I pull off 40-60. At Fates, depending on the people in the screen I get 20-60

*Using frame limiter btw.

I am aware that most MMO's are very CPU intensive in cities or when there are many players around in general.

However, the issue with final fantasy is that even without lots of people, just panning the camera results in violent fps drops and with no real reason. At the start it seemed like the panning fps drops was because the character/details were being loaded but in fact it happen each time you pan the camera even standing on the same spot. I would guess that the details/characters would only need at least one first time to cache and be loaded however, each time you look to the same spot multiple times the drops occur.

The weird thing is that the drops do not only happen in cities or around multiple players but it's consistent throughout the game. I can even do some FATES that do not have fps drops.

I believe there is something wrong going on with the game or gpu drivers at the moment.

My Specs:

Asrock Extreme 4 Z77
Core i5 3570k 4.2Ghz
Evga GTX 680
8 GB DDR3 Corsair CL8 1600 Mhz

It would be lovely to ear something from the developers regarding this.

Well. Bo be honest I stopped playing...

At the moment I just think it is unplayable for me, drops to 12fps are just horrible.

I can run Witcher 2 at ultra settings, The Bureau - XCOM Declassified and Metro Last Light etc. etc.

I hope that developers will examine this problem becouse searching on forums and in google lot of people have same fps drops

I understand your frustration completely, I have stopped playing most recent mmos due to stuttering (mainly), fps drops, etc. However, the games you mentioned cannot be used as comparison. MMO's use your components very differently from a single player game or even multiplayer shooters.

I really hope to ear something about this issue from the developers but if my experience with many other mmo's serves me right, we will not have a reply.

Is it me or does it seem to be only higher end computers that are struggling with this game hahaha might crack out my old core2duo pc lmao might be awesome xD

My graphics card is really old, and I can still run it at nearly max settings at 30+ fps in towns. But I run a i7, so the game might be using more processing power than your graphics card.

I have..
GFX: 660-ti 3GB
CPU: i5 3.4-3.6
RAM: 16GB
STORAGE: SSD

I run @ 60fps constant, so it could possibly be...
Drivers, Registry, Corrupted Install, Hm
