Does the game cap the max speed?

[Qoff]

When I'm playing EU4 if I set the max speed it goes crazy very fast, it seems to be CPU bound but seems to not have a limit, while playing Stellaris it seems that the game limits the CPU, is that accurate?

i would say so, as i actually can't set EUIV to speed 5. when i try, the game displays a tooltip explaining that this is too much for my CPU and switches the speed to 4. so, considering Stellaris runs on the same engine...

5 in EU4 is very fast for me, I can't even control things, 3 in Stellaris seems to be not using all of my CPU.

what happens when you try 4?

what happens when you try 4?

There isn't 4 in Stellaris '-'

 

[prismaticmarcus]

There isn't 4 in Stellaris '-'

uh? there aren't fve speeds?

Unless I'm missing something is just 3 for me.

 

[Ramiel]

Should be five, just like every Paradox game.
It's just Stellaris starts on Normal, the middle speed, whereas others start on the slowest one.

. . . someone correct me if I'm wrong, I'm mostly going off of EUIII and Vicky2. Been ages since I played EUIV or CK2.

Stellaris is still limited on max speed.

 

[Qoff]

Stellaris is still limited on max speed.

Still means that in the future it will be not limited?

I can remember (Wiz or maybe someone else) saying: "fastest is as fast as your CPU can do".
Am I not right?!

I don't recall that being said for Stellaris.

Yeah, he said that during a stream when somebody asked is fastest was truly the fastest speed your computer could achieve or if it was limited.

 

[Stripes]

If you want more speed (and do not care about console), use "ticks_per_turn X" command - with "X" being an number. 1 is default - the higher number is, the faster game will be.

It means when you go up to speed 5, it is still limited at that speed. no implication of plan to change that.

 

[FrosT37]

I play mostly on speed 4 in EU4 (except during wars), but there is no speed equivalent in Stellaris. "Fastest" is slightly faster than speed 4 and "Fast" is slightly slower".

I wish they would make the "Fast" speed the same as speed 4 in EU4. Also, they could remove the cap for the "Fastest" speed.

 

[Qoff]

The speed sometimes makes the game boring, I'm on a achievement hunting and sometimes you just have to wait.

I have a i7 6700k am e it feels that the game is too slow.

I have heard that it isn't limited for EU4, but when I checked it looked like Stellaris was limited at max speed.

What about Hearts of Iron IV?

what does that tick per turn thing exactly do
