At a glance
- User reports increased lag in the map navigator after optimization removal.
- Flying mechanics experienced a return to heavy stutters and frame drops.
- Combat performance worsened, with noticeable FPS drops during specific character abilities.
- Stutters were particularly noticeable during high enemy spawn scenarios.
A community member on r/WutheringWaves shared their experience after Kuro Games rescinded a new optimization setting from their account. The user conducted a comparative test run to evaluate the impact of the removal. According to the post, the map navigator became noticeably more laggy, though the user noted it was not as severe as pre-optimization levels. However, flying around the map returned to a state similar to before the optimization, characterized by heavy stutters and frame drops.
Combat performance also declined. The user stated that the optimization test had significantly reduced stutter and frame drops, but its removal returned combat to a state where stutter was a major hindrance. Specific instances of noticeable FPS drops were cited during Suisui's Liberation and Hsin's Enhanced Attack. Additionally, frame drops and stutters were reported to be prominent throughout gameplay, particularly during scenarios involving large numbers of enemy spawns. This report highlights a potential performance regression for players who had access to the beta optimization features.
