From my point of view, that's Vanguard's biggest shortcoming. Poor performance is real for many. Gameplay decisions, art style, etc, are subjective, some like it, some don't. But it's hard to decide if you like it or not if you simply can't run the game. |
Nothing was more true for me than this tonight. With a group of 6 we went to...that island to the west of Arena, can't remember it's name, Sunset something? I experienced the worst combat lag I've ever experienced in the game, and that's saying something. It was specifically combat related, as in I could stand there with combat on and just have my usual low fps, no real issues. As soon as I attacked in any way my frames would drop to 0 for the duration of the fight, this happened on every mob. Exceptionally frustrating.
