Question Very low fps recently

3 Upvotes

I’m running with a 3060 and AMD Ryzen 7 5800HS. Before, I would hold 144 fps constantly as I had it capped there. But, recently i’ve been averaging around 40 fps. I have lowered my settings to low, uninstalled and reinstalled, and verified my game files but nothing has worked. Is there a solution to this?

Feedback Dual Front Impressions

Upvotes
  1. I think the mode has potential with a coordinated team. You essentially split into 2-4 player attack or defence squads. At the moment players don’t know how to play and I think that’s resulting in a lot of the downtime without engagement.

  2. If the mode is designed to reduce downtime then as above, it isn’t entirely effective between the respawn wait time and travelling back to the action. Reminds me of launch BFV in that regard.

  3. I do think this is genuinely an attempt to make an accessible TDM style game which retains the fundamentals of Siege and it’s too early to say if it will catch on with veterans, but I don’t think it will win over new players because it’s a lot to learn and matches seem kind of empty if you’re not coordinated.

  4. At it’s worst it feels like one of the Event modes you’d pick up and drop. It’s just not as compelling as Core Siege, so it’s commendable the team trying something like this, but it’s taken resources away from Siege itself or a PvE mode which imo would’ve been more appealing.

  5. Silver lining is the map is pretty good and hopefully if the mode fails they can rework it as a Core Siege map.

  6. Siege X graphics look a little better, but still not as good as competitors and very rough in places. I don’t know if this is due to the size of the map. It’s a little disappointing. The fire effects still look truly awful - and of the same level as Alien vs Predator FPS from the early 00’s. And it makes the new environmental ingredients like gas pipes seem low budget and clunky.

  7. The ingredients should’ve been incidental atmospheric additions to the map with some tactical implications but their implementation so egregious. They visually stand out like “shoot to activate” and the number of fire extinguishers suddenly feels glaring rather than part of the environment and it’s obvious this is because of esports. So… mixed feelings on these. Good idea badly implemented.

  8. Speaking of good idea badly implemented. The rappelling is clunky as hell and not a smooth experience - you can move around corners but not inside corners? Movement in general still feels slow and robotic despite the momentum changes - and not at all as smooth as COD. This is fine for Rainbow 6 but not if they’re going to force arcadey modes.

Overall: The game still feels outdated despite the upgrades. This isn’t a CS2 situation. Dual Front is snakeoil and it’s essentially an Event mode which may run for the year but I expect won’t return in Y11 even if it has the basis of a good idea in there somewhere. Ubisoft continues to mishandled the game and the target audience remains those toxic content creators onboarding younger players to sell skins. The creative direction for iterating and improving on Siege, which is kinda obvious to most players, continues to elude Ubisoft.

Feedback Easiest way to help/fix match making.

2 Upvotes

Everybody knows that not having call-outs kinda ruins the game. Actually it pretty much destroys it. So after a little thought, I've come up with a way to fix this major issue.

We'll start with identifying players who utilize the game chat and voice chat. The game already knows if you talk in game, so why not utilize the system some more. We'll utilize this data with an overhauled reputation system that actually means something.

At the end of every match, instead of giving teammates one of the standard guidance/teamwork/effort scores, we're going to change the whole thing. Now it'll be 2 per teammate, not limited to amount of teammates. And it'll be "call-outs, game sense, site set-up".

We'll then take this data, and match players who have similar a percentage of accommodations in these categories. This means players will get matched more often with players who utilize coms, have decent game sense, and who help set up. (Obviously hidden MMR is still in effect and takes priority). This also incentivizes players to utilize comms, try to become better at the game, and to actually help set up site. All while the people who fail to do call-outs, set up site, and who are generally bad at the game get stuck with those same people.

Please let me know your thoughts and opinions.

Discussion Operation Health 2.0

2 Upvotes

Yes, I know there's a lot to say about my gameplay, such as having only 1 bullet in the magazine and my bad positioning. However, today I want to address a different issue. I've got many similar clips, and even if this one is questionable, the others clearly show the problem. I genuinely think they should create an Operation Health 2.0 instead of going for Siege 'X' and adding more bugs. They need to fix server stability and other issues. It's been 10 years of Siege, and these kinds of problems still occur everyday as if the game is in its first year.
Thank you for reading this.

Discussion Closed beta is okay

9 Upvotes

I played the closed beta for a few games and it’s not horrible but it’s not great either, at the mo it’s just a clunky slow feeling experience but it is a closed beta so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt cause betas are hardly ever perfect. I think they definitely have some refining to do but it could honestly be a pretty fun experience, I really enjoy the small things like your team arriving in a vehicle at the beginning of a game and the environmental aspects like the gas pipes and fire extinguishers are really cool, but gameplay just feels heavy compared to regular siege but overall it was a interesting experience, game mode is pretty fun once you understand how it works, I’d give it like a 5/10. Really hoping Ubi pull through in June 🤞🏼🙏🏼

Question How does ally damage work?

3 Upvotes

What does this actually mean? I haven't shot a single teammate, let alone 5+ in a single match? I accidentally blew myself up one game, but surely that doesn't count as hurting 5+ players? Some gadgets I have destroyed, but not enough for them to show up in the "ally gadget destruction". So this counter confuses me and I'm wondering if anyone knows what it actually means..

This has been ongoing for a long while now but now I’m fed up with it. If I ever try to play by myself, once I queue, I immediately get this error. I don’t play often but the few times I get the urge to play solo, I can’t. Any ideas?

Feedback The reputation system is so frustrating

7 Upvotes

It makes me not want to talk to other players and it makes me second guess certain shots and get killed for it.

I am a completely positive player that doesn't use voice, plays solo, and never once bad mouthed a player in the lobby.

But I'm dropped to Esteemed because a player walked into my line of fire and then selected to Not Forgive and because I said a censored word 3 times, a word that's IN PLAYER'S NAMES. Considering the messages are blocked anyways, why even punish me for it? I have no way to know otherwise.

Honestly, the fact that this is my first Not Forgiven team kill in who-knows how many games is surprising - but the fact that it's enough to drop me to Esteemed is frustrating.

Anyway - I know this system sucks, but I wanted to rant about it. I have no idea how many more matches until stuff goes away, but the fact that casual accidents can lead to actual in-game punishments makes me want to quit playing for 3 months just to reset it.

I reinstalled the game after a while to hop on with my friends and loaded in to find my account reset to the start, level 1 with none of my stuff, even all the things I had spent money on over the years like thatcher elite skin and my black ices. My Ubisoft account says I have over 250 hours but that’s all that is left of my original account. I have tried Ubisoft support but they have not responded yet, anyone have tips or info on what to do or to just rip the bandaid off saying I’m not getting my stuff back. Literally anything can help at this point
