Mayhem Survival lag issues

Hello, hello,

After spending an hour and a half on phase 1 I finally gave up, closest run being a second or two from passing.

I have some minor, but big enough, issues with lag that is enough to tip the scales and I am wondering what I can do on my end in order to improve those?

  • Response time between switching weapons feels delayed some times. I also tend to lose focus of target more often than I would like.
  • Drawing distance is at very high yet I need to almost stand on the pumpkins to see them
  • Spawns are irregular. Sometimes I have multiple spawn at the same time, sometimes I have half a second between spawns. Sometimes I lose 2-3 seconds before the first spawn.
  • Animation for electrocution chip sometimes is slower than I would like.
  • The fountain messed up targeting but I guess this is due to Mindark hit boxes™

Is there anything I can do on my end? Any settings that could improve all of this? I have general graphics quality at medium. I would not like to switch the sensitivity for breaking focus since I’ll have three dots running at the same time.

Unfortunately, I run on mobile internet. Would using a cable between the router and PC eliminate any lag or do I need to borrow someone else’s internet?

Will be increasing my damage during the week but even if that brings me past this stage I have a feeling I’ll hit a similar wall again where it will matter.

I just need to shave off another second or two to progress :pleading_face:

I don’t think there is any higher DPS in game available at my level. Maybe, maybe there are weapons that could add 5-10 but that’s about it.

Tiering arson and electrocution during the week but that’s not gonna make a huge difference.

Yeah it is confusing that it is not the drawing distance for the pumpkin. Took me a bit to find out what settings are needed with the new UI/graphic settings. It was never draw distance.

You can set draw distance back to whatever you want or even Safe Mode. Might also help with lag, not sure.

For the Pumpkin:

Change the “Objects Quality” to “High” thats where I had the highest possible distance for me. Then you can pull the slider of Terrain Quality to lowest if you like, but this slider did not changed the Terrain for me at all. So I do see way to much flowers and so on now, but will stay at this settings just because of one Pumpkin. ^^

Also not sure if there is a second setting that could maybe increase it even further, but this one alone do help a lot. I would wish that such objects would have its own setting in the graphic options!!!

Yeah the pumpkin is very very important at the moment. It’s either get pumpkins or no chance to get even close :sweat_smile:
