Performance Issues. Performance Issues Everywhere.

Is anyone else running into some serious framerate issues post-DLC? Every game I join I have this problem. I used to only have this problem during Blitz when there was a lot going on or in Crossfire when someone hit the Annihilator, but I have noticed framerate issues in every game I have played, even when I'm the host, so I'm pretty sure that it isn't a lag related issue.

I've always noticed a dropped framerate as more intense things are happening. If I'm juiced as the Annihilator is hitting the entire team while I'm on their moneyball shooting shurikens, yeah I'm gonna get slowdown.

My point is that the framerate slow down lasts the entire match, no matter what is going on. I also forgot to mention I always had a slow framerate while hosting, and that was a big reason I didn't like to host.

Yes, I've noticed this. And it's even worse when you're playing splitscreen.

I've only gotten lag when playing split-screen. Other than that it's been fine.

My first impression was that it was running slightly worse. I chalked it up to more people playing after the DLC dropped and somehow worse hosts were being selected. It kinda makes sense if you don't think about it..like at all.

The game has only been better for me since DLC.

I get slow down only on the new map (including the blitz map too). I think it's the multitude of bots on the map that make the problem.

Yup I get terrible lag on spunky. It seemed fine on the other maps tho.

Spunky is definitely laggier than the other maps. Lots of bots and pros fighting in a small area, plus lots of pro bot spawns are to blame, I'd guess. That map is bouncer central at times.

I notice glitches when I get close to other players. Teammates included - it's especially noticeable as you leave the spawn at match start and bump a friendly player. The other time it happens is if I juice amongst enemy players in their base. It can get horribly glitchy and frequently results in my death instead of a glorious juice run

None of these things happen consistently so maybe host connection quality is also a factor.

Framerate gets really really bad on spunky almost to where i can't aim, especially when blunders start spawnig.

I'm with Rueben on this one. I have been having the frame rate issues everywhere as well. This isn't the only problem that I have seen lately either. My turrents will "eat" my hacks, the annihalator will cause a massive lag spikes when used, and some other things I'm too tired to remember right now.

I get framerate issues when I juice in a highly populated area (pros, bots, turrents, ect.), but I think that's just my new HDTV.

There's definitely a problem with lag post-DLC. It's really bad during heavy action, and if you taunt. I've turned of my XBL notifications and it helped a decent bit, but I think there should be some work done.

I noticed the change, how could anyone not?

As has been pointed out spunky arena is worse then the rest

But just overall I'm experiencing much more lag and frame rate slowing

it seems the same as before the patch often and annoying...i hope for this to be smoothed out in the future.

If anything, they did something to the framerate where every time I respawn it looks as if the box froze up. All maps too, not just Spunky Cola.

I didn't really notice it too much when I was playing by myself yesterday, but when I played with my friend, it got really bad. Definitely would like a fix (along with a number of problems that come with playing split screen).

I'll just say this: Annihilator + 4 Jackbots + Juiced Tank + Enemy 3.3 Rockits = single digit frame rate

I get massive framerate lag as well. And all the time, not just Spunky. And sometimes my game nearly freezes from freeze traps. I appreciate the coincidence there and thought I'd share it.
