Extremely Low FPS After Patch

After the latest patch I have been experiencing extremely low FPS. Under normal circumstances with low/medium settings before the patch I could run a single client with 50-60 fps. I could run two clients at 25-35fps. Following the latest patch I am seeing 8-10 FPS while in space, but normal framerates when docked.

Hardware is as follows:

System: Lenovo X1 Carbon
CPU: Intel Core i7-366YU CPU @ 2.00GHz
Memory: 8 GB
Intel HD Graphics 4000

I have tried every combination of settings on and off I can think of yet performance remains the same. CPU usge with a single client running is below 5 percent normally to a max of 20 percent. I have about 75 percent memory usage with a single client running as well.

Has anyone else had these issues following the patch and has anyone had any luck resolving them?

Try selecting directX 9 in the launcher settings.

If your Intel graphics is shared with a Nvidia card, then you probably just need to get the latest Nvidia driver update. I had the same problem, with the fps going up and down between 20-40 fps. But after I updated there was no more wild frame rate changes and the fps was consistent.

Once upon a time the Golem had a Raven hull and it looked good. Then it transformed into a plataduck. The end.
