Hardware Acceleration - causing slow city-loading?

DeletedUser

  • Worlds: Arvahall, Fel Dranghyr and Houndsmoor
  • Browser and Version: Google Chrome 34.0.1847.131 m
  • Overview of the bug: After enabling the Hardware Acceleration feature and playing for some time, I experienced slow city-loading times when visiting other players' cities
  • Screenshots: N/A
  • How often this occurs: It occurred with every city that I visited
  • Urgency: medium
  • Preventative Actions: I'm aware that I need to clear cache and refresh, but was seeing what happened without taking any measures
  • Summary: After some experimentation and comparing a world using the HA feature and one not using it, I think I may have a 10 second loading time when the HA is enabled and a 6 second loading time when it is disabled - for roughly comparable cities and with the same amount of online time and same browser cache conditions.
  • I have performed a quicksearch of the forums using a select few keywords relating to my bug to see if it has already been reported: I've raised a ticket to support, but can't see a bug report yet
  • Have you tried fixing it by using methods listed in the thread pinned to the top of this forum: I have cleared my browser cache and refreshed. I also tried turning the feature off in one of my worlds to compare.

My game is slower too.. It takes much longer to switch from tech/trade/world view to city view and sometimes it freezes, taking down the whole browser (Chrome).. Also experiencing some graphic glitches, like part of the building sliding around city, etc. I hate that the game is not made on HTML5/jQuery.. Flash is oldschool, slow and buggy, losing it's support fast.

If the Hardware Acceleration feature is making the game slow, it is best to disable it for now.

At last I have been trying since 15 may to log in and use the forum. Still can't log in but today I have managed to get onto the forum. As far as logging in it still freezing up on the main page. I have tried every way possible, even reset my browser still no luck
