    Hey guys,
    I opened up KAG today, and it was stuttering all over the place, with the fps jumping from low 40s to 60s (with uncapped framerate OFF). This made for extremely bad gameplay, and I was hoping that there was a way to cap the frame rate to 30 again.
    Thanks :D

    Yeah, the maximum framerate cap was increased in build 939.
    Don't think there's a config to cap it at 30 though.

    Damn, do you think the devs might add an option if I ask them?

    Yeah the cap was lifted a bit because I felt it's smoother without it being fixed at 30. Is it really much worse uncapped?

    Now that you mentioned it, I did notice some strange slowdowns yesterday. Can't be sure if the frame rate dropped below 30 (when the update would have not made a difference) or was it over 30 (when the update might have made a difference) and I was experiencing these jumps the OP is talking about.

    What? Just uncheck the option..

    EDIT: That said, I don't get any difference by uncapping the framerate.

    @MM, yeah, its actually quite bad. Sorry if I sound like an entitled 8 year old, or whiny, but the slowdown is very noticeable and makes it hard to do anything but die :D I don't pretend to know anything about developing a game, but maybe a fps cap slider or something like that could help?
    @Monsteri, I don't think the game isn't capped at 30 anymore, even with the option unchecked.
    Thanks for your help, guys :)

    Anyone else has a problem with this? I can easily revert this change.

    Gonna be fixed and released in 30 mins. Be sure to uncheck "uncapped framerate" in settings.
