Something You May Not Know About Star Citizen Test Universe - Possible Reason For Our Low Frame Rate

[Horizonz]

This is a small low quality video i did to show a few people in test something about the game i have discovered recently. I have been asked to take this off unlisted and public to share with you all, so here it is.

This is no doubt a contributing factor to our low frame rates in the game.

So why does PU do the slow down? And how can I make my 560M have 80FPS in Vanduul Swarm? :)

It's not a bug, H, it's a feature ;3

Just hope they change it soon.

CIG have stated the reason for the poor performance is the item update code (which is currently sending every client ALL the information about your specific instance across the network). To correlate this with the video above (and this is my own educated guess) this could cause the CPU usage to go down (as it is a higher wait state for data) and subsequently the GPU usage to also decrease.

Well, its obviously something to do with the coding of the game. no shit. anyway, I am waiting on a reply from CIG on concierge mail, about this, so they can enlighten us further on what is Actually causing this specific problem

He means item code, each object in the game has a ID attached to it :)
