More Lag and Micro-stuttering the Further You Go in the Campaign?
More Lag and Micro-stuttering the Further You Go in the Campaign?
What it says on the tin. I’m currently in Act III (no spoilers, please 🙂) somewhere close to the end of it, if I’m guessing correctly, and I’ve been noticing the game getting more and more choppy the farther I go.
At first I just thought it was the main town, but then it happened in the enemy town/prison, then in the mountain area, then on the way to Kehjistan, each progressively worse in terms of stutters, frame drops for no apparent reason, and lag (complete with teleportation and massive input delay).
Scosglen was worse than Fractured peaks (in which I didn’t notice this problem except rare occasions). Dry Steppes is worse than Scosglen. I’m worried I’ll have to mail my input commands to Blizzard and wait for the USPS to return my results by the final acts! 😆
I can only think it must be a network condition problem, but on Blizzard’s side. I have 1Gb down and low pings, no other traffic on my network (or similar traffic during the day as when I play other games online).
My machine, an AMD 5600X with 3060ti and an NVMe drive, running at 1440p with DLSS on Balanced, hovers at 150+ fps when conditions are good.
Anyone else experiencing this sort of progressive performance degradation, or are the servers really just getting hammered that badly? Maybe someone has a remedy to try?
Anyway, loving the game, and all of this is in good spirits. Not looking to create a hate-fest in the comments. Just wondering if I’m not the only one who notices this stuff.
(Ryzen 7 1700, RX5700XT, 32gb ram) How much ram do you have? Previously i was running the game on max with 16gb of ram and it was an absolute stutter fest. Noticed it was eating shitloads of ram and i was running out. Only way to fix was to close firefox and run the game on medium.
I have since acquired an additional 16gb to total 32gb of ram and i can play the game flawlessly at 100fps @ 1080p max settings even with firefox in the background. I hit about 22/32gb utilization when playing D4 on max with all my other background programs running.
You could just need more ram!
My system chugged like hell in the last part of the game. Pretty much from the cinematic that you see from the trailer onwards. Don't know what about it but it didn't like it at.
