Severe lag on Beta, but not on live. Any idea why?

[Camel]

I can run the game on ultra with zero hiccups on live.. I just logged into the Beta server and even on minimum... frames are horrendous. Has anyone encountered this, and is there a remedy?

Likely because code isn't as clean and finished.
There's also probably a bunch of error checking and logging going on as well.

Might be the VM infrastructure they incorporated a week ago.

This has always been the case for me too in Homecoming.

I'm curious because just 2 months ago this was not the case for me. I'm wondering if it's what @Bopper mentioned.

Try turning your camera so that it doesn't face long ways into a zone. I have a lot of lag in Peregrine Island when facing into the zone, but if I block field of view with a wall or gaze at Portal Corps from the statue it goes away. It may also go away if you can enter a mission instance.

AHA...

 

I was worried it was on my end.

Ok this is a months-late reply to this thread, but have you tried running the 32bit client?
I find it's only the 64bit beta that runs like garbage
32 is usually fine

Thanks for replying to this @ltzerge, I have ran into this problem for some time. Sure enough, the 32 bit beta client runs smoothly with no problems, while the 64 bit client is really choppy and dropping frames.
