FPS DROP WITH NEW PATCH

I am running on average 20 FPS lower across the board. WvW zergs now drop my fps to an unplayable level (4-6fps). Before patch everything was running fine.

Mac
3.5 i7
8gb Ram
GTX 780m 4gb

So sad that every update seems to bring more problems than fixes. Especially for mac users.

I wish we had a bit more to share but this is on the fix list and is being worked on!

Thanks for the info, Gaile. I’m not sure if it’s related or not, but is that bug linked to the massive increase in lag and disconnects that I and many other players have been experiencing lately?

The producer who shared the info in the update was specifically speaking about Mac issues. If you’re using a Mac, then yes, I imagine that this bug is related. If you’re using a PC, then I’d think not. I see there is a thread for Network Latency in this forum, and you’re welcome to post there, if you’d like. Basically, the update relates to Macs in this particular case (although all cases of across-the-board latency would be investigated).
