Oh god I lag like stuff in towns unless I'm in a channel by myself and lag horribly in any party whatsoever. Is this my problem? My internet connection isn't THAT bad, nor is my computer.
Not to mention that I lag so much I can barely fight when there are more than maybe 2 mobs on the screen. I don't THINK this is my computer because this is a source game if I'm correct and I can handle more than 2 l4d2 mobs, and their AI is pretty advanced. I get that mobs are like physics objects in this game, so I would even understand if the amount of mobs I can see was halved, but that still allows for 10 mobs on the screen.
So is it optimization on their end (this isn't the alpha but I guess it IS an early beta), or is it actually my computer (which I'll gladly admit isn't amazing and has a stuff processor).
I'm running gfx on normal btw and I'm referring to a party by myself when talking about mobs.
