Well.. It seems like BioWare has localized the 5% with low end PCs. Congratz.

What about the people who doesn't have low end PCs but still have FPS issues on Fleet Station and especially in Warzones?

DxDiag:
Spoiler


It doesn't look like a Hardware issue at my end.. More like imperfect coding..

I love the parade of people who post "I run everything on high with no problem."

No, you are not running with the high resolution textures. "High" is using the same settings as "medium" except in cut-scenes (and the system is set up so that you don't render anyone not in your group in those).

In an upcoming patch, "medium" will be taken out entirely as a setting and you will simply have "low" and "high" ("high," again being what we currently understand as "medium").

I currently get on average 35-65 FPS in outdoor areas, 15-25 in fleet, and 15-25 in warzones. Can't remember what I get in FP's and I haven't gotten into a PvE Op. All of my settings are on full low, bloom off, shadows off.

Oddly enough, I can run about 85FPS on full high settings in Black Ops even during some of the more intense matches. This is also with AAx8.

There are so many brands of component parts and infinetly amount of possible combinations of them, there is no garantee everything will work together well on everything.

Not everybody is going to be able to run a game super smooth regardless of what they have, its impossible to take in account every specific peices of hardware that is out there.

I personally do not have a very good laptop.

It`s a toshiba I picked up at walmart like 2 years ago.

But this is the only game I can`t run relatively well with some graphical tweeking. Mainly I

think it`s because they don`t have the right graphical options.

Specifically the draw distance slider that was in the beta.

I DONT WANT TO SEE LITTLE MEN DANCE ON THE MOON

but the worst thing is that it draws the entire environment, yet mobs in new areas dont pop up

until their eating my face, it`s ridiculous.

I`ve run 14 man raids in lotro with manageable performance, but on certain parts in flahpoints, I straight up just can`t do anything with a four man group.

I get really low fps and yes i have a crap graphic card, BUT with my crap graphic card I run way better looking games then the crappy graphics this game has. Face facts your coding is weak, I don't like being looked down on or being used as a scape goat for crappy optimizations. My computer is not the problem, its your game the graphics in this game are nothing special games released over 5 years ago have beteter graphics(which i run without lag btw).
-____- These guys are wasting millions on a few hours of dialogue that runs dry in 1 month then using their own players as scape goats .

the needs of the many outweigh th needs of the few. this is true for governments, business and all life in general.. it is unfortunate if you do have issues, but if you are in the very minority.. sorry to say, well.. either find a work around or just wait.. nothing you can do really.

I run on high with no problems.

Well, I do. I couldn't resist it. Nobody is running with high-resolution textures, so it's a complete non-issue as far as performance goes. I'm not sure why you even mentioned it.

LOL your sir are just wow for those of us who can read. The box of the game was very clear on what you needed and i personally have 3 systems. They all more then meet the req set on the box and you know what. My old alineware runs this game way better then my bran new one. I broght 60 pluse friends with me that are hard core pvpers and all have above avg pc's. and for the state that the graphics are in on this game eng pos anyways its just sad. But every single thread I read someone is telling someone its your rig lol. No its not I dont care if you have a hd 4200 ati that is well above the min sys requerments they said you need. I know a guy with a 3600 or some junk and he stays at 30 fps. my new laptop gets 9 fing 9 my 3 year old one gets 30. As for you comment it will be the needs of the few i started like i said with 60 friends and they broght family to and have watched them one by one leave my friend shattered his laptop at my house yesterday when his class quest went to 3 fps. I DONT FING CARE WHAT YOU RIG IS THE BOX SAID YOU CAN RUN IT THEN YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO RUN IT! 10 fps is unplayable so if its someones rig then they should not have been able to meet said req that are on the box so yes NO MATTER WHAT ITS BW FUALT

I didnt have any issues with lag or anything on high level graphics until about 2 patches ago. Then things on the fleet and in warzones because realy hard to play. I would run 15-20 warzones daily, but now i cant even get thru one. So its not my system since it worked before, even on low settings i dont see any difference at all.

I run quad 4 3ghz, 6gb ddr3, 1gb redeon all drivers are up to date, so no its not my system if it worked fine earlier, now i dont even go near warzones and try to avoid fleet unless my inventory is loaded up with items to sell.
