Wish List Cyrene needs a cut!

l love Cyrene to death and it looks amazing, but one thing Cyrene citizens and I have noticed: there is just to much flora!! Many people that I have talked to have noticed huge lag spikes around TP's (I think this is caused by the extreme amount of foliage everywhere) I think, at least, by the TP's/outpost flora should be cut down, there are already so much extra resources, like let's say at HQ, there is a bunch of garbage/scrap everywhere, those tall tezla things, about 10 houses, 15-20 trees, terminals, AND a bunch of flora, there is really no need for all of this is a 50m radius, it really just bogs down a lot of people makes it less fun/attractive of a planet to stay on, I have even heard reports of people crashing because of the lag, outside of towns it Isn't so bad (at least the lag) but the extreme fauna is still a problem, sometimes it is hard to find my mining claims (even using the radar and the finder locator) because It's covered by bushs and giant grass!

I know that you mean well, and you want us to enjoy this planet to the fullest, and the Cyrene staff probably ment to make the place look overgrown and don't get me wrong it looks beautiful! But I think we can still get an overgrown look without using up so many resources, maybe less flora on the ground and more on the buildings growning off the tops etc.. This way we would still have an overgrown look but we wont have 6 FPS and can actually enjoy Cyrene!! We can't enjoy it at 6 FPS or constant crashes.

So if you could guys could, please bring out the S.I. Lawnmower and S.I. Chainsaw, Cyrene citizens have spoken, Cyrene needs a trimming!!(at least around towns)

 

Buildings and cars are what makes it laggy - those are the last objects loaded as they have the most polygons. I think 1 car and 2 tents with some stone bricks lying around would be more than enough in every outpost.

Can't say anything about vegetation as I usually just turn terrain quality down so I don't see anything more than just plain ground.

 

Really? Well I just notice when I turn "Objects" to "Low" the lag goes away almost completely, and that takes out the flora, it may take out some objects 2, not sure about that.

 

It lowers the poly count, drastically, of a lot of the objects, and also makes them show up at closer ranges as opposed to way out there.

 

I will look into this Mini-Nova.

 

tip: turn your shaders and shadows to safe mode
pump everything else to max
should work just fine

 

shaders and shadows are what make the game look good >.> I usually turn everything BUT those down so the game can still lookg good w/o lag.


This is what I mean ^ The grass is so big it almost engulfs you, and that giant bush? It's part of the grass.. So when you have a lot of those bushes you don't even know where your going etc.. It can get annoying ^^ (and this is right outside HQ)

I'm just sayin maaaybbe turn the flora down a bit around towns, to lighten up the lag for everyone.

 

There also seems to be a memory leak somewhere and that certainly does not help things.

When you go afk for a bit, come back, and your system is struggling to make even 10 FPS.. there's an issue beyond settings.

 

I noticed this to, I was fiddling with my gfx settings and I think when I flipped view distance from very high - to - safe mode, I got horrible frames.. (shouldn't it do the opposite?) xD

 

whats ur hardware?

 

I average 50 - 60 FPS most of the time and I run on very high settings

 

Hi,

I fell to death repeatedly now crouching through bushes near the common steep cliffs, didn't see anything, fell down, died. I want Chainsaw!

Have a good time!
