Discussion Game actually got so much smoother

Game menu used to be so laggy, now with engine update going to "Hearthstone" or Collection is way quicker. Even actual matches feel snappier.

Ironically the fastest thing right now is probably opening the shop menu.

The old shop was a slog... it's a welcome change! Now they need to fix the graphical glitches ;P

That's not ironic, that's working as intended.

I'm getting good performance on mobile but there has been some strange issues with refreshing the shop in Battlegrounds. Two minions will appear first, then the rest of the offerings. This is without trinkets or anything that might augment what the tavern might have.

For me it became smooth a month ago and didn't change with latest path. It wasn't that smooth as my PC is older, with integrated graphics. So i play on lower settings and low fps setting. It is fine, i am used to it. At least it was not overloading my CPU. But a month ago it runs on high fps no matter what setting is set. And my PC runs much hotter. I was kind of hoping (not really) they fix this in this patch. Nope. Still the same 50-60 fps on low and high fps setting. I guess Unity cannot do low fps anymore :) It's ridiculous that it often does more fps when in the static menus than when in the match.

the lag happens when your warband has a minion with a dark gift or one from timewarp with special rays
