I have a 670 (I don't actually know how this stacks up to the 780 but I assume it's worse) and I get 60 FPS at 1080p most of the time. Only time I don't is when there's a crapton of players on the screen.

Yep, same. It seems quite optimized for its quality of graphics.
 
So what's the general issue of today's update for us folks at work?

Are y'all d/cing and getting the error? Or just simple log off?

Is the fix just to never log off, or will you get 9000 eventually anyways?
 
I'm getting the "Unable to update patch files. [11006] [20641] [20642] [20600]" for the second time in a row :(

anyone else getting this? any solution other than restart the update process from scratch?

can anyone please help me with this?
I cant even update the game this error keeps happening over and over once the download reaches 470ish MB out of the 1027.31 MB

It's... substantially worse.
I have a GTX 590 and I'm capping at 30fps, maxing settings, and injecting SMAA.
I mean, the SMAA is taking up some frames, but not THAT much. Maybe like 10.

Eh, whatever, probably time to reformat. If you can hit 1080/60 on a GTX 660... then Jesus, my shit is fucked up. (590 > 680, for comparison)
 
Maybe it's a good thing GMG are out of keys, only reason I haven't bought it yet. But these problems I'm reading about are giving me second thoughts about even buying it 25% off...

Just a few guesses:

-run launcher as admin
-turn off all antivirus and real time scanning programs

670, not 660. And I was under the impression that the 670 was a really good card. It's definitely better than my previous 560 Ti.

Well, either way, my GTX 590 benchmarks slightly higher than a GTX 680, which is quite a leap up over a GTX 670, still.

I'm not getting the performance I should be, so your comment was helpful, thanks. GTX 670 is a perfectly fine card.
 
Is anyone here with anything less than a GTX 780 able to max the settings and hit 1080p/60fps?

I feel like I should be getting way better performance, but I have to cap at 30 with a GTX 590.

GTX 660ti playing at 1080p. I get 60FPS in low populated areas and dungeons. 40-60 in town. The lowest Ive seen is 32fps and that was at the Gridania crystal with a lot on screen.
 
FUCK. System crashed again (after being 100% fine again yesterday and the day before playing this game) and now I'm getting the 3102 error :(

I can max and sit at 1920x1200/60fps pretty easily on my 680 with a few key exceptions such as very crowded city centers, and Gridania just seems to have more performance penalty by its very nature both in its city and in the outside zones I've been to (haven't done much in Gridania to be honest).

Granted, I consider "max" to have the graphical goodies turned up, but I do also turn on occlusion culling and LOD, since I don't know why one would NOT turn those on. I'd assume they help performance.
 
Just a few guesses:

-run launcher as admin
-turn off all antivirus and real time scanning programs

I'm running the update as admin
I always updated the game with my antivirus on and it always worked but I'll give it a shot

if there is more suggestions please let me know
and if anyone have any more information regarding this problem please let me know

Yeah, same. I have those on .
 
I haven't figured out whether or not Culling is worth turning on or not, I've had it off the whole time (and LOD off) let me fuck with those. Thanks.
 
Error 3102 reared its ugly head back into the game from Phase 4.

Translation for most people:

Error 3102 is "you are still logged in" error. Before it would most commonly occur when your client crashes and you were not logged out naturally... but now it is happening even if you log out naturally.

It could take minutes to hours to be able to log back in... people in the thread are experimenting with means to clear the error themselves (rebooting PC / Routers / Loadstone login/out / etc)

The LOD implementation is good to the point that I wonder if it's even actually enabled at all, so if it actually is doing it I can't tell and I feel that can only help. I'd assume culling is supported in hardware on GPUs so why that would be turned off I'm not sure (but I'm hardly a GPU guru, that's not the area of electronics I work in, so I may be completely wrong here).

Must be alot of angry people that can't play, the official forums have been getting hammered all morning.

What I dont really understand is how they didnt know.

They have the 1.0 sales numbers. They know how many Legacy players they have. And pre-order numbers certainly arent kept a secret from these guys. So how could they look at the launch and say "we didnt see it coming!" when they really should have.

I agree with you in that they probably dont want to overspend because a lot of these people wont be around in 2 weeks but now, by not overspending, theyve created a new nightmare....massive amounts of pissed off people who want to play a game they paid they for.

1.0 Sales numbers were AWFUL. How do you know how many 1.0 that quit are planning on coming back? Lastly who preorders an MMO? They went from probably 10k 1.0 users to 230k concurrent RR users, I can see why they didn't see it coming. Doesn't make the launch any better as it was bad.
 
Does anyone know if it's possible to add a second key to my account so that I can play two characters simultaneously?

I was able to create a second character for the gf under my account, for now, but I'd have to go to the store to find a physical copy to add a key to hers and I'm not sure if my server will still be open by then.
 
I finally made it back on. I was trying to do Garuda at 6:50am, got 90000'd and 3102'd and just got back on at 8:10.


And as I type this.... 90000'd once more. FUCK

Edit:
Something told me to stay in my inn. Why did I not listen to that feeling?!
 
Thanks for the settings suggestions, guys and gals. I think I kind of got it where I want it, now.

My hard drive really does need to be reformatted badly, though... I'm so lazy. I hate doing that.

I can't remember exactly where the folder is, but I've seen people mention deleting the partially downloaded patch files when it fails like this. Maybe somebody knows what folder to check?

Correct when Sli scaling is good, that could be part of the issue vs a single 670. For reference I run 2 670s and I drop below 60 as well, probably cpu related since the game does strain the cpu when tons of characters are around.

The gap between the 670 and 680 is actually pretty tiny. I've got the MSI OC 670 and it actually benchmarks at about the same as a 680. They're a lot cheaper too.
 
Question: does the lock on new characters mean I won't be able to start one tonight? I managed get a digital copy when it went on sale on Amazon for a few hours yesterday, but the servers were down for maintenance by the time I got home.
 
it really amazes me how people on here aren't understanding that there's gonna still be login issues after the Maintenance fixes so they don't have a huge rush of people right away. At least wait till the end of the day or tomorrow to start complaining.

The only reason I even have a 680 is because I had to RMA a dead 670 and Asus had stopped making that particular OC'd version of the 670 so they sent me a 680 as a replacement. Haven't had any issues with it so far - knock on wood.

actually every single time the client start downloading the patch as if I didn't download anything before, it always start off as 0 MB / 1027.31 MB
then at 476ish MB I got that error that it couldn't update the patch files :(
