I think focusing on bug fixes and optimization is the best route they could be taking for these updates. There should be nothing but that for the first few updates. I would also love to see some new clothing/armor/weapons and whatnot, but I'd take them fixing stuff over that.

[@TootenTV]

Agreed. I personally view what’s going on with the AI as a bug. So yeah, optimizing and bug fixing needs to be priority and if it’s not being addressed in a patch, it needs to be addressed on social media.

[@TheGalantir]

It doesn't really make any sense to start optimising when your game is just 20% feature complete.

[@CharliePiercy-lu9cy]

same man, i dont get why people are like content we need content, people seem to treat early access like it a full release, and its kinda bs, i hope the next few updates are bug fixes and patches, they need a nice solid foundation before they need to worry about content

[@ratt3man]

Just curious, have you looked into updating your BIOS? There's a specific problem right now with 13th/14th gen Intel CPU's cooking because the motherboard vendors gave it unlimited power draw. There's a fix if you haven't, but that might be what's making your CPU cook when you play this game. Not trying to say anything like "hAhA aMd iS SoOoOoOo mUcH bEtTeR!!!1!11!1!1" I just tested for about 20 minutes running around the base and taking helicopter flights on my 5800X 3D and I didn't even see temperatures of 70c. I saw 69c max and my CPU was at 100% the entire time. I definitely agree the game needs optimization btw, I have a RTX 3090 paired with this CPU and I barely get 80 - 90 fps, sometimes even barely less than 60. It definitely needs some patches and updates fast. Either way, for anyone with 13th/14th gen Intel if you didn't know about this problem I hope that the below video will help you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZWpZpioebeCY8U Channel: Hardware Unboxed Title: Intel CPUs Are Crashing & It's Intel's Fault: Intel Baseline Profile Benchmark

Best way to make money for me is running the villas in MS. You usually get an M2 rig (III+), at least one helmet (IIIa+), often times a 4-slot belt, 1-4 decently modded guns with optics that include the ELCAN Spectre, which is my favorite for PvP and 2 safes with 5-8k in total. And that´s before you hit the main Resort with the boss with his juicy modded CQA1 with 20" barrel, RC-1 suppressor, Vudu 3,5-18x and M855A1 ammo. I do this almost every day as a warm-up run and I`m swimming in decent gear and money. Getting the keys to do so is a pain in the butt indeed, but there are some really decent trading discords with good people willing to help out.

[@TonezBonezNZ]

My EXACT warm up run haha I also do this at the start of every play session.

[@user-bo9pn6hi4u]

Something they should think about adding is zone control for factions. Make it so there are intermediate LZ’s that are somewhat far from the area of interest but closer than the main base. These LZ’s can be controlled by factions. Have these areas be on a timer or require certain actions to take over. This would help in the gameplay loop. And it would help with things like LZ camping cus flying from Crimson to Ban Pa for almost 10 min just to die at the helo drop off sucks.

[@Frontofax]

CPU at 100% usage should never reach 100C if the pc has a good airflow and cooling solution regardless of the game been or not been optimised. Yes, games that uses 100% of your cpu is the games fault but if your build allows your cpu to reaches 100C than its your fault not the games fault.

I would like to suggest you watch the video put out by Hardware unboxed addressing the issue with Intel 13th 14th gen CPU's and motherboards. This may bring some better understanding to the issue.

[@thylacine123]

If the game is pinning your rig and generating 100C, you need a better cooling system or you need to strap down your clocks/voltages. Its as simple as that ya nerds.

[@nickcarter7063]

Same here. The highest my 7800x3D has gotten to is about 87c on a spike. It's usually right around 70c. I also keep my clock dialed down as it helps with stability in most games I play. I do have a 7900xtx and it definitely isn't using the card like it should. Most early access games I've played don't resolve the optimization for the first few patches. It's a lot more time consuming than minor bug fixes that will improve the QOL of current players. The reality is that they have a test audience now and a very small team of developers. I would imagine they'll tackle bug fixes and glitches that are being exploited before we see bigger issues resolved. It doesn't mean they aren't working on it, but I would imagine their backlog is insane right now and being able to knock out a lot of little things will free them up to tackle the bigger problems.

[@TootenTV]

I completely agree. My issue isn't that I don't think their working on it. I just have a problem with them not really.. addressing it. If it's not something that has a fix coming in patch 1, they should definitely take to Twitter, Reddit, make a KZbin video, all of the above, and actually let us know that their working on it, give us some data on what's happening and maybe an ETA if they can. I only say that because of how BIG of a problem it's been since the game released into EA. It sounds "entitled", but honestly, they have players who can't play the game that are running hardware that absolutely SHOULD be able to play the game.

Yall need to realize once they start fuckin with the AI cuz everyone keeps crying about them that's when the game goes down hill, the games going too get tooo easy then. Let them get the servers and optimization down first, then supporters should reevaluate the AI. In the mean time, read the ranger hand book. Work on your breaking contact, do battle drills out of the habdbook with your squad and shoot better. This isnt cod. Learn how to play it more tactically. Ypu arent supposed to just fly through OBJ's. Do some recon first then come up with a game plan. Promise you, the game becomes so much better when you do that.

[@ButYesButNoButYesButMaybe]

In FN and AI needs to be seriously strengthened, now its a solo stomp. In ms slightly strengthened... Easily to the level of tiger bay tbh... Just without wallhacks thats all... This game is mainly pve with random pvp encounters and to make this work AI has to be challenging AF like in RainbowSix and stuff... Not stupid scavs in Tarkov... They should bang you on sight if too close and you didnt scan your surroundings instead of "oh im here, I see you and will shot in 3-4sec!" If from afar then call reinforcements, go investigate and bang in sight...

@@TootenTV Let me give you the reason. Optimising a game which is 20% feature complete doesn't make any sense at all. Starting to optimise that early just creates an endless loop endlessly optimisng. It doesn't make sense from a business standpoint and it doesn't make sense if you want to release a game within a reasonable amount of time. I know it is very easy to look at these things from a gamers perspective but once you start looking from the developers perspective it become very easy to see why optimisation is never ever 1st on the list of things to do.

Let me as a professional make it very clear as you have some very bad information and due to that make very wrong statements. CPU at 100C is 100% a computer issue not an issue with the game. You just don't have a good cooling setup. My cpu with Gray Zone Warfare does not even reach 60 C. Make sure when you run intel you run the latest bios updates as EVERY single board out on the market is basically frying your cpu by using too high default settings out of the box. Yes you will lose on performance quite a bit doing that, +/- 10% performance drop. Seeing what you are saying in your video i'm pretty confident you haven't updated your bios yet as you do not seem to know about the issues with intel cpu's atm. So that should be your step 1. Next check your cooling solution. Are fans flowing the right direction? Do you create any kind of airflow in your case? Is something blocking your airflow in your case? In case of watercooling check if there's something wrong with your loop or AIO unit.

The processor issue isn't a Gray Zone issue. It happens in other UE 5 games.

It is a poor design by intel and happens in other games and there is tutorials out there if you do a quick google search.

[@TootenTV]

I’ve seen this take over and over again. Do you experience this problem, or rather does your buddy, on any other game? No? Do you have to change your BIOS because of any other game? No? It’s a problem with their Skalla tech and it’s amplifying the problem with the Intel and some AMD processors. A major problem is the fact it’s utilizing the CPU more than the GPU. Your CPU ends up at 100%, while your GPU sits at 35-40% usage. It’s a problem with the game, that is amplifying a problem with certain CPUs. And at this point, it is on the devs to fix the problem on their end.

At first, fix your limits to your procesor in bios at first, and secondary, 100C will not burn your CPU..... it will reduce its lifespan only, from 15 years to 14years (aprox).... you will fry your CPU from bad settings you have in your bios...... which is not primary your fault, but you probably heard something about INTEL issue and mainboard manufatcturers and thair default settings... So at primary, dont push on game developer, hes not responsible for your hardware, its your Bios settings. And question- how many EA titles you playd? Because technically, this EA launch is pretty FAIL in many ways.... Basic mechanics like HIT registration is simply not working properly..... You are quite hyped and willing to be blind a bit ;-)

I'm gonna copy and paste, because this absolutely horrendous take has been spotted a couple of times here. I know it's a waste of time to try and reason with people who obviously don't want to be reasoned with, but here's my 16th response to this take. Have you seen anyone else experience a problem like this on any other optimized game? No? Do you have to change your BIOS because of any other game? No? It’s a problem with their Skalla tech and it’s amplifying the problem with the Intel and some AMD processors. A major problem is the fact it’s utilizing the CPU more than the GPU. Your CPU ends up at 100%, while your GPU sits at 35-40% usage. It’s a problem with the game, that is amplifying a problem with certain CPUs. And at this point, it is on the devs to fix the problem on their end. Regardless of whether you SHOULD change your BIOS settings, undervolt your CPU, whatever. A game should not FORCE you to, to avoid destruction of your hardware. That is an absolute caveman brain take.

@@TootenTV :-D problem is , your CPU is runnig on settings not officially set by Intel :-D You are simply lazy uninformed guy, running your rig on overclocked UNLIMITED state and bulshiting an software which is using resources you are willing to give by your lazyness and ignorance :-D :-D.... maybe after all, dont buy an intel next time, and buy an AMD ;-) .... Set your BIOS setting according intel specifications instead of AUTO and stop bulshiting another softwares you are using on such extreme OC parameters.
