General Gaming

Reposting with more detail after my last thread got no traction. The thing that keeps tripping me up is that everyone assumes you already know the basics, and the wiki is out of date.

Low stakes question, but it has been bugging me for weeks. What actually changed my results was slowing down and reading the tooltips properly instead of rushing.

Adding my findings in case they help someone. What actually changed my results was slowing down and reading the tooltips properly instead of rushing.

Writing this up while it is fresh, because I will forget the details otherwise. The in-game explanation and the actual behaviour do not appear to match.

Not a complaint, just genuinely puzzled by the behaviour. The default settings are clearly tuned for a different setup than mine.

Reposting with more detail after my last thread got no traction. It seems to depend heavily on region, which nobody mentions anywhere.

Posting from the other side of a very long troubleshooting session. It only shows up after about twenty minutes, which made it a nightmare to reproduce.

Hoping someone can sanity-check my reasoning before I commit to it. Two settings appear to interact in a way the menu does not hint at.

Bit of a niche question, but this seems like the right crowd for it. The difference only becomes obvious once you look at the frame times rather than the average.

I want to get ahead of this before it becomes a habit. It behaves as expected on one account and not on another, same device.

This started as a small annoyance and turned into a proper rabbit hole. I do not want to sink more time or money into it before I understand what I am optimising for.

Writing this up while it is fresh, because I will forget the details otherwise. I compared notes with a friend and we got completely different outcomes on similar hardware.

Spent most of the weekend on this and I am still not sure I understand it. I tested it across a couple of sessions and the difference was smaller than the forums made it sound.

I have read the FAQ and it does not cover this case. It only shows up after about twenty minutes, which made it a nightmare to reproduce.

Genuine question, not trying to start anything. The in-game explanation and the actual behaviour do not appear to match.

Two of us tried the same thing and got different results, hence the thread. The difference only becomes obvious once you look at the frame times rather than the average.

Hoping someone can sanity-check my reasoning before I commit to it. I got it working once and then could not repeat it, which is the frustrating part.

Spent most of the weekend on this and I am still not sure I understand it. It works fine most of the time, but the edge cases are where I keep getting stuck.
