Vauban Performance Issues

[KleenexTissues]

Hey guys,

 

Recently warframe started having serious performance issues when more than 6 vortex's /tesla's were spawned.

I opened MSI afterburner to see what was going on with my GPU. When I spawn more than 6 vortexes or teslas in a crowded area I noticed my GPU usage dropping to about ~ 5-10% usage and temperatures never went higher than 75 dagrees C (thermal limit is 95 dagrees on my graphics card (Gtx 780m) ). So it is clear that this is not a bottleneck, driver issue or faulty hardware, but is a performance issue. Also vortex starts affecting players when many are spawned. 

 

What do I do to trigger it ? : spawn more than 6 vortexes or teslas with alot of enemies moving in to them. Also happens randomly when entering missions. 

 

Did I try it on other systems? : yes , I've tried it on other systems, they all give the same problem.

 

Is there any difference with different enemies? : Yes : Corpus(Problems occur way sooner) , infested (seems to be giving issues at higher leveled defense / survival) Grineer (not really extremely bad)

 

Do I have any mods installed that affect vortex/tesla ? : Yes , im using a duration + effeciency build (-90% energy usage, + 130% duration)

 

is there anything that makes the bug worse? : yes , not moving seems to be multiplying the effect (very quick frame drop)

 

A short explaination of what happens ingame: Normally I have around 180 fps ingame at 1080p , when many enemies are sucked into a single vortex or dual vortex , my frames drop to about 160 fps. after having triggered the glitch, no matter how many vortexes or enemies, my framerate slowly starts dropping till about 10.00 fps (exactly 10.00 fps)

 

DE, this is a serious performance issue that should be investigated.

 

Hope this helped.

I've been having vauban problems for a few days now.

 

I use vortex on my own machine as host and it's fine, but when I use too many as a client, the game suffers.

 

-lag happens

-enemies become invisible

-other players run around on the spot

-loot floats in mid air

-can't collect loot, dmg anything etc

 

Eventually the fps drops below 10 and half the time, sometimes I DC from the host with another person.

 

This didn't happen in u10.
