HELP! Game is bugged. Everything is fast!

Help

Basically everything is going super fast. Game is running maybe 1.5 the speed of normal. It makes for some fast paced action, but I cant play like this... I have no idea what impact it will have when invading but I dont want to look like a cheater... Has this happen to anyone else?

I have tried to reinstall the game in hopes of it helping... it did not...

Edit: I fired up fraps to get some video of my problem and it stopped. It is basically a framrate problem... Every time i turned fraps on the game played at normal speed. And when I turned it off it played fast again.

Gotta go fast!

But seriously... hm. I think I've been having this same problem, but with the first game. Are certain animations played almost instantly, like enemy jumping attacks and estus?

nope. No animation is played instantly. Atleast from what I have noticed. Just going really fast. I just tried to summon a guy. Talked to him, his character was not sped up. But I was, so was the enemies.

Forgive me if I am wrong but most things in dark souls 2 code are tied to frame rate. Is it possible you are running the game at 120fps and fraps slows down your computer enough to fix the animations running at 120fps?

Yes, something like that. But not 120. Holy shit! with that it would be unplayable. I measure it at 65-70. Still 17% faster and it is very noticeable!

Ok that would just be enough to speed up everything slightly. Idk how but lock the fps to 60 and you shouldn't have any problems

Yeah, I have been doing some research. Found one way to do it. But it locks my FPS on everything to 60. I don't want that... Still searching around....

Yep, don't think it works in multiplayer games, but most games you can.
