So, What's Up With All The Extra Dissolving Physx Particles?

[_Absolom_]

I noticed that since update 15.0.5 or 6, the dissolving corpses give off a lot more particles than they're supposed(or used to), and while some 3 corpses are not that hard, more than that is simply a murder on GPU's. My 660 GTX could handle everything just fine so far, 
Has anyone else encountered this?

[Brahmastra]

Yeah especially on Grineer. My PC can handle it but its just annoying to see.. it's kinda over the top tbh.

I love it, I just switched back to my old NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 after my AMD Radeon 5800 broke, and I have no issues with framerate and it looks extremely pretty and this is with at quite a few bodies dissolving simultaneously.

I like it. But as with many effects it will get toned down or removed because some peoples hardware can't deal with it or some don't like it. I hope we will get one day an option to get all those effects back that have been reduced or removed by now because they were too much for a few people and i was able to play with all of them and liked them. Ah well only thing i can do is hope.

The effects are just too much when groups of enemies are killed at the same time. It tanks my FPS by 10~15 every time that happens. Needs to be toned down.

You think this is pretty?  I think it's incredibly annoying that my view keeps getting obscured by corpse confetti.

i've got a 750 Ti (and considered getting the 660 GTX and thought it was worse but it's actually better EJHNGNRGJREG) and it chews my framerate when I get close to it.

[Zareek]

It's annoying and kills the framerate. My pc is pretty good and it starts lagging when they burst into particles.

It's a bug caused by who knows what and it happens even with PhysX off, the devs said in the last livestream that it was already being looked into so we'll probably get a fix for it early this week (hopefully Monday). In the meantime, play with Particle Effects Quality on Low, you'll still get frame drops, but they won't completely lock up the game every time an body dissolves. Also, Grineer bodies seem to cause more particles than other factions (though not always), so avoid fighting them if you can.
