Less FPS and drops

Pre update I was sitting around 200-250 FPS with my current settings. After I was sub 150. Even with DLSS on quality, playing with a 4080 at 4k. Settings kinda min-maxed. Found at least in my instance for it to be nvidia highlights. I disabled highlights and instant replay. FPS went more or less back to normal. Also found it to be most noticeable in ground battles. I’d get a 30 second “stutter” here and there. No idea what happened this patch but I’m glad I found my issue.

I am still getting constant drops to 70fps from 240…

Damn…
I did not even had the nvidia overlay on…
I turned it on now, first start of WT it asked me if i want auto captured highlights, I declined all options
and then still in the settings i had to turn it off, and that solved the FPS drops.

Thanks for the info!!!

YES!

Super computer is not and issue.
100% update related.

I play movie mode used to be over 200 FPS.
Now 125ish?

HOWEVER, suddenly drops to 30 FPS and less but in reality it is not getting that huge freezing stuttering everything.

I notice CPU drops down like the game decides to stop using the CPU for some reason.
Can sometimes fix by Windows Key + D to Desktop and back.

Coding issue.
Not our issue.

I’ve been getting fps drops as well. I have a 4070ti super, 32g ram, i7. Before the tusk update i was playing with 120fps all the time. Now it jumps between 120 and 40fps. Even in the hanger its stuck around 50fps. I’ve updated all my drivers, checked the games files integrity, uninstalled and reinstalled it, tried lowering the graphics and still getting these random drops.

I’m on a Mac Studio. When I got it last summer I set WT to 4k and was getting >75 fps in default Movie settings. So I just locked it to 60 fps, which is the max of my monitor.

Since Tusk, I had to back off to Max, and I get 50 to 60, with spikes down into the 40s.

So it’s not the machine, not the OS, not the card and it’s not the drivers.

Last night I had the stutters return, my game would hold a frame for roughly 30 seconds, also have been having atrocious packet loss, another issue I’ve never had. I’m on a 13700k and a 4080. I played all up until yesterday without a single hitch after disabling highlights. Last night it happened 3 times in a match, I hadn’t even been on an hour. I ended up just getting off. I’ll try doing a diag file. But with my luck won’t have any issues with it tonight.

Its also worse for me…
Especially if vsync was on (i have a gsync display).
Its smoother using the framerate limit in nvidia CP, but I still feel like there are microstutters frequently.

It was tolerable for me but it’s gotten unplayable today. Getting 20-30 FPS at the main menu with DX12 RT on 1440p on a 5090.

I don’t have an F11 key. So how do I do this?

This would seem to be the cause of the problem, not the result.

I just logged in and have 20 fps in hangar. Why?

Nvidia had a driver update release yesterday. Played for a couple hours after work. Micro stutters were there but not as severe. Didn’t have my game lock up fortunately. I understand it’s a day but, could potentially be something to mitigate the issues.

The game is unplayable now, I’m getting 20 fps in hangar with 5080.

almost 1 month after the major update and still no update from gaijin if this is even still being worked on.

Yep. Was hoping the fix to the hangar FPS drops would also mean a fix for in-game, but no.

Newer maps since Breslau, as well as most reworked ones, often have low and unstable FPS for me — ranging from 25–30 to 70–80 FPS. (RTX 3060 laptop), old maps still good.

I have written a more general post about this and perhaps, it would draw more attention if we find people who would write something there as well. It is a more general, perhaps a letter, to Gaijin so to speak. Could us some support and the link is here:

can’t wait for another map to become unplayable with the next update
