Warhammer 3 Is A Perfectly Balanced Game With No Exploits - EVERYTHING IS BROKEN AGAIN!!!!

[@Lordsnes]

Hey, lore wise Wood Elves in Warhammer are not "first" they are the descendants of the High Elves after the great war against the Dwarfs who didnt went back to Ulthuan.

[@marcelx2x137]

DLC and game wise they came out first, cuz high and dark elves were relesead as vanilla units in WH2

[@EvilDoresh]

[@Tyler-sy7jo]

@@marcelx2x137 Considering a large portion of the unit rosters are pulled straight from the tabletop armies (iirc anyway), even if high elves and dark elves weren't in Total Warhammer 1, the wood elf roster was still largely pulled from a tabletop roster that feels like its high elves but slightly different with less clothes/armour as well as 100% more trees, deer and wardancing.

That's exactly what puts me off whenever I see these gorgeous new graphics cards and other hardware components - it doesn't matter what you have or how much you've spent when the game isn't optimised! Learned that the hard way, buying a 3080 for Cyberpunk's release...

[@ravinraven6913]

huh? your sentences seem a bit disjointed, are you saying watching a nice game like this that isn't optimized puts you off? when you say That's exactly what gets you, that usually means what he just said and he said a lot in 2 hours, so I am reaching here....I know that's how I feel about most bethesda games. I would never play if it wasn't for the mod community making it playable, those potato faces my god, those potato faces

No idea what you're talking about, Cyberpunk was running fine on my 2070. Maybe you shouldn't just focus on the numbers on the box and buy hardware that's actually good

[@hardbrocklife]

@@Dragongaga but Cyberpunk is also a trash game, so...

[@Dragongaga]

@@hardbrocklife It's not, but that's not the point. This is about people wasting money on hardware they don't need and can't even use properly

[@BrainSlugs83]

Unlimited memory didn't 100% work, it still kept locking up. To fix the lagging, you could try turning on vsync. The game was probably running too well, and rendering more frames than the encoder could keep up with. Vsync will limit the game to your monitor's refresh rate.

[@VitalVampyr]

Does the game not have a framerate limit setting? Using vsync to limit the framerate seems like a hack.

[@MeowMeow-ul4su]

@@VitalVampyr its not you can get big graphic tears and framerate distancing if your monitor is not inline with your card.

[@Astroman10]

VSync wouldn’t help with streaming lag .... Also never use VSync ... You are stacking the information to your display while the commands of your keyboard and mouse are being received instantaneously. Meaning you creating latency when there was none. Either you will have ignored commands or what you are seeing is seconds behind what you are doing ...

[@BrainSlugs83]

@@Astroman10 frames behind. Not seconds. 😅 Also, as a professional developer, I disagree. Again, it lowers the load on the hardware, so you're not doing a bunch of useless work.

[@Dragongaga]

@@Astroman10 None of that is true. At 60fps you can't even react that fast for it to make a difference, especially if your framerate is hovering slightly above 60. Besides your actual framerate is still limited by your display. If your game is running faster than your display, it doesn't do anything for performance. Vsync is almost always better

Wood elves are second most fun to play behind Skaven..... Spiff you've blasphemed the wood elves, and I will not stand for this. Your king drinks coffee!

[@Tyler-sy7jo]

In terms of the AI going on a massive spree of declaring multiple wars on you in Warhammer. I can't confirm its the case, but it would make sense of my experiences with the game if the AI takes how many wars a person is currently in into account when it is determining whether its "declare war value" is positive or negative. So if you have someone declare war on you, that may push another faction over the edge and decide to declare war, then you have another and another etc etc until everyone is at war with you. I've definitely started taking whatever non-aggression pacts I can get because what little diplo hit I may get with other factions for having that pact is easily overwritten by the value of not having to fight a war in each cardinal direction all at once.

Spiff: Dark Shards are extremely powerful armor piercing ranged units- Me: Yeah, they are. All in all, well-handled, though.

more warhammer 3 please this game pleases me greatly

[@adinix2000]

Something else that may help with the warhammer 3 video issues. I have to power limit my video card (15% reduction seems to do the trick) For whatever reason the game demands everything your card has regardless. With the artificial limitation I get massive temperature reduction on my card with no perceivable change to the performance. With such a powerful card it may be getting needlessly hot since the game asks for more than it needs.

[@EvilDoresh]

There's something weird going on with these games. I still don't get why they don't have a FPS limiter, for example.

[@pointmeatthedawn2411]

I put a 60 fps cap on it in nvidia settings and got a similar massive reduction.

[@Dragongaga]

That's not the game's fault, it's the graphics card's fault. Especially the 3080 sometimes goes up over 2 times the maximum power rating it says on the box. If you google 3080 power spikes, you get multiple accounts of cards pulling over 1000W despite having a 350W rating

If you think this is Overpowered, Try out a Zombie Doomstack as Herman Ghorst. They cost 0 to upkeep and about 18 to buy. They have Ward 15 Physical ward 20 magic ward 20... Get bonus to armour attack movement and deffense faction wide and a bonus to healing received for up to 1 250 000 healing received PER unit of zombies... Combine it with a Death engine, and they are immortal. It is so stupidly powerful that Putting Herman Gorst with a death Engine and surrounding them with zombies even works in multiplayer. Only an army that specializes in sniping big Entities to take out the engine is enough to destroy them... It is so stupidly powerful that it can take out a other Doomstacks. Or even a Hellfire cannon Doomstack which should outperform it due to movement speed range AND the fact it deals Magical damage. In addition to all of this Herman causes units to deal Poison, this means they can damage any enemy and also Debuf their damage movement and more even further... Oh and of course this is Faction wide -____- Skaven nuke is no enough damage to take out a full stack of these monsters and that means, since they can heal over a million damage, that NOT EVEN THAT works on them. It only has one disadvantage, the game does not know how to calculate a Stack of zombies properly so it will think you should loose most fights... This means two things. First, most armies will attack your armies out right because they will think they can destroy your armies and second is that autobattling will often tell you that you will loose... You wont.
