This is unacceptable, and it shows the game is poorly optimized. Warframe runs at 34 FPS on the lowest settings, lowest resolution, DX11 off, Multicore-rendering on.

Most other games, I can run on High-Ultra. With this computer, I can run BF3 on Medium settings, no problem. I7 3630QM 2.3 GHz (four physical cores, eight virtual) It runs really well on some things, but for a lot, it just doesn't. And this game is poorly optimized across a large spectrum of things. He didn't post his specs you don't know what his machine is running. The fact that I can run BF3 on Medium settings just fine, and I can't run Warframe on the lowest settings is completely illogical and is really unacceptable for a game that requires high framerates (especialy since half the weapons stop being usable with low framerate.) (After that, going up to 1600x900, or 1920x1080, or turning on shadows or PhysX, I get massive framerate drops, but that's expected to happen on my machine.) Changing the graphics options just doesn't have an effect you can either run the game fine, or you can't, because the optimization on the game isn't there. I'm talking 35 FPS at the bare minimum stuff, and 31 FPS on the high end settings. What I've noticed, is that between the resolutions 800圆00 (everything on lowest/off), and 1400x1050 (everything except shadows/PhysX on/highest), there is negligible difference. Also try running in normal fullscreen I doubt it's hurting your framerate, but it definitely isn't helping.


It's, supposedly, a CPU heavy game, so you can try going into your Task Manager and turning up the priority on the process. It's poorly optimized and it's a dumb engine (not knowing what's happening between frames? What is this? Quake III?). The Evolution Engine (what Warframe runs off of), is terrible. There is very little you can actually do to increase framerate.
