OneAngrySpeedo TheGaggleflaffer's Rifle 16	Posted - 2015.02.23 01:30:00 - [1] - Quote This seemed to work for me: 1. In your Neocom, go to the System Operation Tab 2. Go to options 3. Press R2 once to go to the video tab 4. Lower your Screen Scale to 0 I was reading online how lowering the native resolution of games on PC could increase performance. I thought to myself, "I wonder if Dust has a similar option?" Then I remembered, it does. After doing this, the first match I played ran very smooth, no hiccups or jitters in the frame rate. I could actually aim and shoot at people in firefights. The next 2 matches I played, were also smooth. I was finally getting 25-30 FPS. I am happy to say that I will begin playing this game again. Although the only drawback of using this option is that enemies are harder to see the farther away they are from you. I would also like to mention that you have to be sitting about an arms length away from your T.V, to compensate for the new small game resolution. If you are having frame rate issues, I encourage you to try this. Please post your feedback, I want to know if this helps you not lag anymore, or if it makes the lag worse.

DeadlyAztec11 Ostrakon Agency 7600	Posted - 2015.02.23 01:46:00 - [4] - Quote Yep, I noticed something good after I did that. Though I wasn't sure that it has been that because I changes many other settings; reduced all noise, turned on videogame mode, turned back up textures yo high, turned effects back to high... Many things. Things seem sharper and not as "slimy" when moving now. Which makes it easier to track strafers and get headshots. Put your flags up in the sky. And wave them side to side. Show the world where you're from. Show the world we are one.

Things are smaller, but you get used to it quickly and I am more willing to get a sharp and clear smaller image than a bloated and more blurry big image. I already sit close to my TV because it's basically the size of a PC monitor. What's "videogame mode"? how do you turn it on? Another thing that you can do when playing solo is turning off voice chat and any chat channels. When turning off voice chat make sure to restart game. It doesn't work if you already have voice chat "ON" when you log into the game, so you have to relog.

It is a bit better, yes. But if you pay attention you still see the framerate drops constantly as usual. It may be just a bit of suggestion and the smaller size of the screen that does not allow you to perceive framerate. Now, the thing that actually works is playing at 480p, but, seriously.....it's simply ugly. I have not considered running the game in 480p. Next chance I get I will test this out. Thanks for the advice. I find it interesting that making the screen smaller makes it more difficult to see frame rate drops. I wonder if this isn't a fix at all and just a placebo affect?

It does help a lot, guaranteed. Everything is actually much more responsive but, it's seriously ugly. it's more like a ps2 shooter Ei fu, xxwhitedevilxx former Co-CEO Maphia Clan Corporation / Unit Unicorn

TooMany Names AlreadyTaken Going for the gold 795	Posted - 2015.02.23 20:09:00 - [13] - Quote It's hard for me to imagine I spent almost a year playing without an HDMI cable... (in 540p, or around that number...) When I finally decided to buy the cable and play in 720p (Y NO 1080???) It was like I was playing a different game. Found my favorite DJ - ATB
OneAngrySpeedo TheGaggleflaffer's Rifle 17	Posted - 2015.02.24 06:00:00 - [14] - Quote After playing 3 or so matches in 480p, here is what I can conclude. Yes, the game runs even faster than before, but at the cost of image clarity. After the third match my eyes were starting to strain as I was searching through the pixels to find the opposing team. Around 40(?) or so meters in front of you it becomes difficult to tell what you are looking at. Very smooth performance, yet headache inducing. Also I would like to mention, the GUI is really messed up, I had to fine tune the screen scale (I had to set the screen scale to 74) just to get everything to "fit in" right. Another side note, the kill feed, your HP circle, along with the mini map take up large portions of the screen and inhibit your ability to spot enemies from the corner of your screen. Final Conclusions: I am starting to lose all hope for this game. All I want is a stable 30 or 25 FPS... without having to take breaks every three matches because of 480p eyestrain. I guess I will continue to play this game, but I will have to put up with dying against militia gear here and there because of frame rate drops. With this said, I will continue to play in 720p, to save myself from constant headaches. This thread can now die, thank you to everyone for posting your feedback, much appreciated.

jane stalin Ametat Security Amarr Empire 187	Posted - 2015.02.24 08:01:00 - [16] - Quote I set scale to 30 and moved my chair closer to screen, This does seem promising, I had some occassional "medium" lag, however I never had "medium" lag before I only had the severe sort of lag that made the game unplayable.
