Those are all solid suggestions.
I'll add a few...
Reduce the number of PSN contacts and PSN mails. Set to LOW the setting in Options for graphics detail. If you're starting to get bad framerate and it continues from one map to the next, reboot your PS3 and do nothing outside of joining a squad, enabling voice in your chosen channel, and load the next battle. Don't mess with mail, fits, or anything else in-game. |

And a few more:
Use SD versus HD. Use a gaming monitor (i.e. low latency) instead of a TV. If using a TV, be sure it is in GAME MODE. Do NOT run your HDMI through any preamplifier or upscaling hardware -- run it directly from your PS3 to the TV/Monitor. Use your DS3 wirelessly as opposed to plugged in. Use an ethernet connection directly to your cable modem instead of a wireless router. |

Those things certainly won't help.....
For me, the biggest change to my in-game performance came when I reduced display lag (removing a preamp, changing TV to game mode then eventually replacing the TV with a 2ms gaming display).
The other tips mentioned above certainly helped, but display/input lag was the real culprit for me. |

No. It has nothing to do with PS3 performance, but everything to do with how quick you can react and, utimately, perform in FPS games like Dust.
LOOKMOM NOHANDS wrote:I run though an AverTV capture card which I feel like is actually reducing the load on the PS3. I find myself in situations where other people are getting lag while I have a totally stable frame rate and have been very curious on the possible science behind this. I had always attributed this to my SSD but there were even situations where squad members had SSDs and were still getting lag while I was not.
I can't explain that at all....unless you're recording in and having your PS3 display in SD rather than HD.
That said, IMO slow framerate seems to be mostly independent of SSD -- although if you review the thread I linked above there are others that disagree with this. My suspicion for what you observed centers around the tips provided in this thread. I'll bet one of the guys in your squad had a lot of chat channels, had been messing with his contacts or fits, just hadn't rebooted recently, or one of the other things mentioned.
Hope this helps...Lead |
