Right so I have an Nvidia 1070 and I thought it would be able to tackle FPS issues against shaders in vanilla Blockland. Apparently not since I struggle to get 60 FPS with max shaders on medium/large maps. Players like Hound has a 970 and Mr. Unicode with a 960 and claims to get steady over 60 FPS on the server I was with him regardless of where he stood. Maybe it's setting or something. Now keep in mind this same card can run DOOM and Battlefront on Ultra with a steady 60 fps.
