I just downloaded Planetside 2 and I noticed the frames delayed. I would turn my head and It would turn 5 seconds later. How do I fix this.  

Is the framerate really low? Like does it look like a slide show? If so you should lower your graphical settings. If that doesn't help you need a new computer.  

What should I lower? Also it does look like a slide show.  

Go to settings -> Graphics and fiddle around with the textures and lighting. If that doesn't work try these options:


1. Turn OFF VSync!

Open the graphic settings within Planetside 2 (click the settings buttons when logging in) and make sure Vertical Sync is turned off – it will significantly improve your performance and speed up the game

2. Competitive Gamer? Lower the render quality!

Next, change the render quality. If you’re a casual gamer keep it high, but if you’re competing for kills then you may want to reduce the render quality as much as possible, because that will increase your FPS (frames per second) dramatically

3. Tricky: Changing Vertical Field of View For Performance Boosts

The vertical field of view is a tricky setting. If you’re a competitive player you may need to see for long distances to snipe enemies with your sniper rifle, but the higher this number the more your PC has to render. Therefore you need to do some testing. Find out how much lower you can go with this setting until you have disadvantages. 55 is the default settings, use that as your benchmark

Thanks, this really worked
