What kind of performance do you get with Blockland?

I'm trying to figure out if I need a more powerful GPU or CPU to be able to play Blockland on max at 1080p and 60 fps even with a lot of bricks.

I rarely can play at max and get 60 FPS and I have a Celeron 1820 (placeholder until I can get a Core i5), 8 gigs of RAM, and an R9 270.

What performance do you get and what are your specs?

typically have it on high, gets pretty slow when in the vicinity of 10,000 bricks but still playable (just lower fps than usual)

if it gets really bad ill turn shaders off (because minimum looks like stuff)

On Seattle Default City on Max Shaders I get 27 fps.
It would be higher if Blockland wasn't so reliant on the CPU.

Usually when i'm on a server with 150K+ bricks I am still getting near 150-200FPS, with Max Shaders somewhere around 60-70FPS.

I get ~30 FPS as well however I don't think it's only about being reliant on the CPU as much as it is being able to manage it's resources correctly, engine-wise.

The green line on the top shows GPU usage, which barely reached above 60%, the green line on the bottom is the cumulative CPU usage, which likewise barely reached 60%. On per-core performance, most of the cores were relatively equal, except the first one which used more (I remember Badspot explaining what each core does but the first one is the most used anyway) but it still didn't reach 100%.
Yellow line at the top is the Video Memory usage, nor which it reached 100%.
Blockland doesn't use a single core at 100%, or the GPU/VRAM at 100%. The only thing that gets close is the first core at around 80%.

I have a acer that runs windows 7 professional,And I cannot even run shaders and my max FPS is ~85.5

150 fps w/o shaders and 60 with shaders. Probably will be better with my new rig

Hmmm, yeah, I've noticed that my CPU and GPU never reach full usage which is honestly frustrating.

I kinda need your specs though to see what kind of parts yield what performance.

i7 4790k
GTX 770 and <300fps with shaders on acm

i have an i5 4440, a gtx 970, and 8 gigs of ram.

non shaders (100k bricks): 160 fps
max default shaders (100k bricks): 95 fps
performance soft shaders (again, 100k bricks): 76 fps

normal soft gets around 30 fps and ultra soft gets around 15 fps. i usually play with performance soft shaders, because i hate the 30 fps that normal soft shaders gives me.

I usually am able to run it at top specs w/o shaders on full. My specs are 8 gigs of ram and a 2 gig graphics card.

Basically saying, you don't need much to run this game at full capacity. It's not that powerful of a game itself.

this doesn't tell me much

what kind of FPS do you get and what is the actual GPU? There are a huge range of different 2 gig GPUs with varying performance. What is your CPU?

Hmmm... I'd assume it runs fairly well for you? XD

Lenovo U510 Laptop with I5 processor and Intel HD Graphics 4000

(With the inclusion of 10,000 bricks)

No shaders - 100 fps average

Minimum shaders - 90 fps average

Low shaders - 30 fps average

Medium shaders - Eye rape

High shaders - Eye rape

Very High shaders - Eye rape

Max shaders - considering Self Delete

I recently upgraded to a titan and replaced my old processor, an i5, with an i7 4k.

Now I can freely run port's shaders at about 50k bricks with a solid framerate of 60.
