1.4.1.0 vs 1.5.2.0 performance comparison
Posted: 2018-02-18 15:55
Hello everyone!
Since 1.5 I have major framerate and frametime issues to the point where it's no no longer fun to play the game so I decided to to a clean install with the 1.5 full installer. (spoiler: That didn't help.)
And because of that I had to uninstall the game anyway so I decided to grab the 1.4.1.0 installer first to see how much the performance between those two versions differs.
All benchmarks were done for 2 minutes on an empty local server standing still and looking towards a specific spot. No LODs was unticked because 1.4.1.0 doesn't have that option and the framerate cap was removed with game.lockfps 0. All other settings were on max @1080p60hz.
I know that those benchmarks are not super scientific but they should be conclusive enough to give you guys a picture. Also keep in mind that the framerate and frametime graphs only display the last ~15 seconds. And lastly minimum framerate is higher than 0.1% low framerate for some reason so maybe ignore the former.

1.5.2.0 Fallujah West inf
1.4.1.0 Wanda Shan inf
1.5.2.0 Wanda Shan inf
As you can see Fallujah West saw a decline of 10% in average framerate and 1% low framerate dropped by 19%.
Average framerate on Wanda Shan is 41% lower and 1% low framerate is 38% lower.
The 0.1% low framerates are a bit misleading in my opinion. Those are so low for 1.4.1.0 because that version had a single framerate spike every ~30 seconds but that was hardly noticeable during gameplay. Nevertheless 1.5.2.0 doesn't have that problem.
