To those that have no idea what we're talking about, this is what's frustrating about Unreal sometimes:

Same exact location, same exact map, same exact settings, the only difference is that one is online and one is offline. Replication is a bitch sometimes.

*shrug* I think they lag like crap too because they're dynamic...

I'm going to set Dynamic to false and see what happens.

I think this was a very good idea. After building the map, I get 55 FPS where I normally got 45 before. Less dynamic lights FTW. I think I can officially say, the FPS issues on mAAp Pipeline have been fixed.

Thankfully it was something simple like that

It's amazing now. I have more room for more eye candy!

So the first one was taken online and the other one offline...what a difference. It almost seems it's flattening the rendition overriding that dinamyc lighting (and it seems likely if you say it just place a texture instead).

Well, I disabled dynamic lighting on those volume lights which made no difference affecting it online versus offline, it just raised FPS. In the second screenshot (offline) you can BARELY see the haze. All these volume lights are is a x number of sprites in a certain line in a certain direction. If you use enough round sprites in a straight line, it looks like a cylinder, that's all we're doing.
