In both cutscenes and gameplay my game has awful fps. It doesn't matter if the graphics are on high or low it's just terrible. It's making me really mad because I just got this computer in August and it fits all the spec perfectly. If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it.
I'm hoping for a littlle before Christmas lol at least by the 15th

Unfortunately there are no workarounds to these issues. We just have to accept that the developers at BioWare and at DICE (and Nvidia) have to fix it.
The shocking lack of testing/QA for this is amazing. They must have spent all their budget in testing on PS4/XB1 only.
True , they ve surely spent their tests/QA on PS4 only.
I bet you 100$ it s because of DRMs . Testing on PC with several installations / configurations when the DRMs block multiple install may make crazy a team of QA 😕mileylol:

I managed to get him to respond to some of our concerns, but I just don't know if he thinks PC performance is an issue. Here is my question to him on page 79:
"
Allan take a look at these screenshots, should NPCs on the screen really cause this kind of CPU fluctuation seen in the graph?
DX11 running at an internal resolution scale of 1.7 up from 1080p with most settings on ultra (no AA):

Running at a res scale of 0.5 (a measely 960x540):

Now the moment I look away from all the NPCs we get a perfect graph with no CPU strain (back at the original res scale of 1.7):

I'm pretty sure my rig still qualifies for high end/enthusiast class performance:
i7 3820 at 4.3ghz
R9 295x2
32GB ram
840 evo SSD
So many of the NPCs appear to be just static or window dressing, should this really be stressing out CPUs that much? As discussed in numerous threads this happens at haven (when you first get there), redcliffe etc"

Could it be this simple? I tried this fix and I am back to a livable 22-35 FPS, a whole lot better than 7!

Edit: I just relised it doesn't fix the problem for people with other graphics cards. I'm sorry hopefully it can be fixed just as easy.
...and it doesn't totally fix all FPS drops, some seem randomly. Still, between this and disabling origin and online options I have an almost playable game. EA you still need to patch this game!
The question is my friend, why do they need to patch this game?
I mean, we already payed, so... why care about us anymore? Their product is out, is badly optimised, but people are still buying it. It literally makes no sense from a business perspective to patch it and waste money on it. True, patching it would not be costly, but still, those dollars could buy a EA ceo a coffee and a bagle he wouldn't have otherwise.
My ranting aside, seriously, if this turns out to be cause by the DRM than I bet, once someone pirates the game, it will turn out that the pirate version will run a lot more smoothly than our payed versions. And really, that is simply the most annoying perspective, and "screw you" from EA to their customers ever...
you might be right.
