Bug/Issue The Ark gate and lag

Anytime I walk into the vicinity of the ark gate after it's been opened, the game starts suffering incredible lag and FPS reductions.

I do not have any framerate or lag problems in any other part of the game. (Okay, so OCCASIONALLY loading a world will timeout...but that's about it.)

While this isn't anything really big, and post-game I can mostly avoid it (except for going to Lana for augments...) any new file I create still requires me to go talk to Esther just to get my FTL drive working. Which is a pain.

Might I suggest toning down the visuals in the warp-gate? Or providing a way to "close" it when you don't intend to use it? (Like a switch or something.) Or heck, even just moving the team away from the warp gate will suffice. There's PLENTY of room...

 

I have the same issue, but it only happen s if the gate is highlighted, if I keep my cursor away from the gate I don't get any more slowdown then usual.

 

I get it too. The lag for me tends to start when I reach the Baron, and gets worse and worse until I reach the gate itself.
