Low FPS on 2560x1440

Hi, I've recently changed my monitor from a 1080p one to 1440p. When I switched from 1080p to 2560x1440 in DOW2 Elite, I noticed a dramatic drop in FPS. Went from 165 (which is limited by G-Sync and monitor refresh rate) to circa 25 FPS. At the same time, my CPU, GPU and RAM usage remained at about ...

Re: Looking for a basic game guide

Hi! There is also an old vanilla DOW2 Basic Tactical Primer for beginners, by Octopus Rex, originally posted on RelicNews Forums (RIP): https://vdocuments.net/basic-tactical-primer.html It's not up to date with the Elite mod, but it's a good read to learn the basic mechanics and concepts of the game.

Re: 2.9 Beta 1 - Preview changelog

While my skill really doesn't allow me to take significant voice on balance, I would just point out a couple of things. 1. Whirlwind - is it possible to make it do friendly knockback? In general, enemy-only knockback seems completely bonkers, and it obviously makes it that much more powerful in team...

Tooltip info and some questions

Hi, As not all the info about how stuff works currently in the mod can be found in the Codex, I have a couple questions: 1. Is there a way to easily view tooltip text for units, upgrades and abilities without actually launching the game? Some sort of text file maybe? 2. There is zero information abo...

Re: help me choose a faction ( and other stuff)

Turreting actually works at a high level too. Just have to be smart about it. Tell your friend to keep practising and improving. Well, I'm aware that turrets are a legitimate startegy, and got kind of buffed in Elite (?) However, my point was, defensive turreting is very different from standard pla...

Re: help me choose a faction ( and other stuff)

HI, There's one advice I have for a beginner: Do not learn to play as a defensive commander (Techmarine, Plague Champion, Mek). Or at least, avoid relying on turrets. A friend of mine that I frequently play with, learned to play as Techmarine. He adapted mass turreting as a "playstyle". Th...

Re: Why is SM so strong in 3v3? - Analysis

Well, I'm an average skill level player at best, me and a few friends just play Elite in our own company every week or so, so take this feedback as it is. I used to play Chaos Sorc for years, since Chaos Rising showed up. Recently, I switched to SM FC. Suddenly, the game seems easy mode. I'm the Cha...
