Survey: How does the SP2 demo run on your computer? (Read pinned comment)

33.7k 32  one month ago

Just asking around, what kind of performance are people experiencing? Please include framerate and how it feels and please include a link to your computer on Amazon or at least a specific model name so I can Google it!
If it’s something you built yourself feel free to include specs but I don’t trust some of yall lol

Example:
running on a Valve Steam Deck LCD (off the microSD card) I experienced a pretty smooth 60 fps with the stock aircraft on medium settings. Loading in more intense aircraft, or playing multiplayer caused it to drop to 20-30, lowering quality settings to low gave about 40 in multiplayer.

    Again, please include your computers model number or a link to the Amazon page, or at least its specs. I am trying to get a general idea of performance on different hardware so I need to collect data.

    If you don’t know your specs but want to include them you can use speccy. Please be specific, saying something like “Intel i5” or “Nvidia GPU” could mean dozens or even hundreds of different things without all the little numbers and things. For instance, an i9 14900K and an i9 7900X are two completely different products, one of which performs significantly worse.

    big crafts actually run smoother than on SP1, but only noticeable on my "weaker" laptop

    my gaming laptop (Intel I7 12650H, Nvidia GeForce 3060 with 6 gigs of VRAM, 24GB RAM) runs consistently over 100fps in singleplayer, even with large crafts and a fairly consistent 60-ish in mp. (that's all with high settings)

    My school laptop (Intel Core Ultra 5 125U, Integrated graphics with 128MB Vram, 16gb RAM), which i actually use all the time, has about 40-50fps in singleplayer on mid settings, and gets down to about 20-30 in multiplayer (which is still very playable btw)

    @StockPlanesRemastered I just tested limiting my network speed and it didn’t seem to make a difference on an 11 player server so I’m not sure if there really is a correlation then

    @32 I cannot test multiplayer at a different time unless i convince everyone to get out of the house lol.

    but i have a Ryzen 5 4500 6 core processor apparently.

    Hey you just gave me an idea.

    @StockPlanesRemastered I think this is interesting, I’m a bit hesitant to pin as framerate issues are almost never dependent on network speed. Did you try the game at a different time when no one else was doing anything on your network? I’m not trying to claim you’re wrong or anything but it would be interesting if this was legitimately the issue here so I’m going to try and collect some more data.

    Also, could you go into task manager and let me know exactly what CPU you have? So far you seem to have claimed to own a Ryzen i5, which is not a thing and would almost certainly have more numbers/letters as well. Bit like saying you have a Chevy F-150 without even naming a model year or anything.

    Pretty good solo, but seems to be worse on first run if entering from the build menu (?). Can be stuttery, huge effect on touge racing
    Using an oldge Inspiron 7590, low settings

    I would like to note and @32 if you could please pin this: my household has heavy internet usage as my wife and I have two kids and are sharing a larger home with my mom and dad.
    While I was on and playing multiplayer, my Dad was also playing World of Warcraft and my son was watching Netflix.

    This definitely led to framerate issues in multiplayer.

    @@AndrewGarrison you might also find d this info pertinent as well so I'm tagging you.

    Runs like butter in multiplayer with maxxed settings, though I do have a beefy PC.
    60fps on a full server

    @SimplyElegant you can use a tool like speccy to check, or just use task manager. I appreciate you providing input on how it runs but I’m trying to find a metric on how it runs on different types of hardware and the more datapoints I have the better.

    @StockPlanesRemastered which i5 do you have? There are a lot of them and they all perform quite differently.

    @CatdogAerospace interesting, do you think you could find your specs? Something like speccy is probably easiest but task manager works if you don’t want to download something.

    It seems to start out running well, but gets worse and worse over time as a server stays open.

    @CatdogAerospace It's almost like one of my most played games, which I've invested considerable time into, is no longer working properly and is extremely unpleasant to play in the best of times.

    CPU is "13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-13420H" to again quote (manually) Task Manager.
    Very annoying how that text can't be copy-pasted.
