    Newbies + graphics issues

    New to the game and have graphics issues?

    Be sure to check that your computer is using your graphics card and not onboard graphics. The game does not always automatically select the correct card.

    That will definitely improve your gaming situation.

    I'm using onboard graphics from this $300 box i built a few years ago and it still plays just fine. (20 fps on lowest). So if you're reading this and concerned that your toaster can't handle it, i'd encourage you to still give it a go.

    Graphics in this game are still being developed. New players don't freak out if you are getting 60 fps everywhere but mobs run in place over and over again - so you don't really know where they are. Their actual location is next to two other mobs and you are dead.

    That actually sounds like a network problem rather than a graphics problem. If this is happening to you, bring up the Settings menu and check your ping to the server. Below 100 is great, above 1000 makes the game play like syrup (with occasional mob jumps). PG currently seems far more susceptible than other online games to networking delays - it will probably get better as the game gets more optimized closer to release. In the meantime, my usual solution is to find the person who just started downloading large chunks of data on our home network, and politely ask them to stop. NOW.

    Thank you for the suggestion. I have typically looked at fps when mobs/players are running in place. I didn't think to look at ping. I'll do that next time.
