I appreciate you sharing your experience and the steps you've tried. Based on what I've read, I think most people are in the same boat. The only times I've seen people posting lower than usual tick rates (even with 1-0 players) is if their hardware was much older. I'm only running a Ryzen 9 5950X 16Cores @4.2Ghz and I'm seeing similar results with server tick rate (server fps) scaling down from 30FPS (cap, i believe) with 1-3 players and drop to about ~15FPS with 8-10. I also tried overclocking to see if performance improved. I didn't see significant changes so I kept it at clock I already know is stable (the original 4.2Ghz). I've seen others that took similar steps and jump through all kinds of hoops with little to no luck. I'm afraid we need to wait for more optimization updates from WC. Some changes they've made have already reduced RAM significantly and I'm sure there's more coming. When more maps are released, players will tend to spread out to more maps (and CPU cores lol). While more optimization is definitely needed in general, I see a lot of this alleviating when more maps are released. As you know, everyone is crammed into one server and breeding like crazy with tons of dinos etc. which is worse case scenario atm.

When can we expect another Evo event? 3 weekends in a row seems like a long time. Especially for those of us that are returning to the game and starting fresh.
