    Hello everyone. I'm struggling with the game performance. I've searched google, but there seems to be no answer anywhere. My PC is quite good (i7 4790k 16GB GTX1080ti, I'm running the game on SDD), but the max FPS I can squeeze out of the game is 40 (everything on LOW/Fastest, 1080p; with max setting, it's 20-30). I'm now in the 3rd area (with the castle). Please, can anyone advise anything?

    have you read about turning off peripheral lighting?

    I run on beautiful and no shadows with crypto mining in the background and am getting around the same fps as you are, so have a look at your performance monitor see where the bottle neck is

    PS /bug will put the format required in your clipboard so you can paste it - btw the "3rd area with a castle" .. is vauge theres a number of castles, and so on.. the bug info contains the info most people need to start helping.

    Are you streaming while playing?

    There we go :). The thing is, whatever I change, the game still runs almost the same...20-30 FPS maxed and 30-40 on the lowest possible settings (everything turned off, 1080p). I'm not streaming.

    ok, so peripheral lighting is known to cause an issue, I also personally turn shadows off, makes the game brighter (this game generally likes being dark) .. however, as a glance theres nothing blatently wrong so I can only suggest something is interfering somehow..

    Yes, but for me turning shadows off gives me those 10+ FPS and peripheral lighting changes nothing. There is no bottleneck as well...I dunno, it drives me crazy, because I like the game so far and I want more, but playing with 20-30 FPS is no-no for me ;(

    30fps will be smooth enough < 20 you see the stutters, your system should be capable of more, but, at 30 it should be very playable.

    what else do you have running - I see you have a dup thread. Ditch everything else.. I mean everything, so msi, overlays, everything.. so its just windows, and nothing else.

    then its a puzzle - because I have very similar setup to you, i have more memory, and 2 1080s in sli, however, i dont think sota does sli yet... that and as I often tell people, Im running crypto mining in the background and Im still getting the same performance you are. Only obvious difference is I have windows 10 - but personally Id expect it to be slower for me.

    Ok so looking at unitys performance guide try turning off vsync if you have it

    thats the version unity uses, you may need to uninstall and reinstall - this has been known to "help" and shouldnt hurt as long as you reinstall

    I have noticed, that there is low GPU usage in 1080p (33%). In 4k it's only 66%.

    so the bottle neck is elsewhere. Id suggest you write to support as this strikes me as something weird that they would need to be aware of and resolve
