Low FPS, High Ping

Maj_Slacker, on May 16 2014 - 07:39, said: The issue of low FPS and higher ping persists.  My computer is not new and I am not expecting to be able to run the game at its highest settings.  However, since 9.0 and through the hot fix patches since then, my FPS has dropped 50%.  Prior to any updates, I would get 45-50 FPS.  This is without any mods to the game.  Now, I am lucky if I get 20-25 FPS.  The FPS will drop in game to below 10 and slowly creep back up to 20.  This makes the game unplayable.  I have been lucky in that this does not always happen in every battle.  However it is frequent enough that I believe it to be a game issue and not a connection issue.   Additionally, my ping has increased.  Prior to the patch my ping to the NA East server would be in the 65-75 range.  Now it is 85-100 with in game spikes to 200+.  This leads to stutter in game and oftentimes enemy (or friendly) tanks will not be shown when they should be.  I find that tanks that are in view range and not in camo are not drawn on screen until they have fired.  I have been in situations where me and a platoon mate are side by side and he can see the enemy tank but I can't.  It's like the game doesn't know the tank should be visible to me.    Clearly there remains issues to be resolved.
