Hey guys, since this last patch on PC I've been getting mico stutters in my game like Console players do, is anyone else getting these? Thanks


For what it's worth I run a 5950x CPU, an RTX3080, 32gb 3600Mhz Ram, My MoBo is a Dark Hero VIII and I didn't have these stutters on the last patch.

    No, yesterday I only had sudden drops in FPS, very noticeable. Previously game worked very stable and always produced about 90fps

    Nope, might want to double check all your hardware and connections (Ethernet, WiFi, router, etc.) are stable. Maybe there is a piece that is even outdated (CPU, GPU, Motherboard, etc.) or maybe there are some server issues? Patch seems to be fine for me, NA region.

    Forgot to add, double check graphic settings, they recently capped fps to 120 as well, this might affect the FPS drop more if you’re used to playing on higher numbers.

    My computer is fine, I also tweeted this out and have had several people report back as having stutters.

    I've played about 6 hours on the recent patch and haven't noticed any issues

    I was getting them before. I’m still getting them now. They seem better but I’ll still get the ones where everything halts for for close to ten seconds.

    Everyone should also take note of the settings they use as well as their actual device capabilities. It's much harder to determine on pc to all the different settings people can use as well as their software

    I play on Low because despite having a 3080, and a 5950x this game still runs like trash.

    Not to mention ultra makes some areas on maps pitch black.

    Yeah ultra is alot, especially with some monitors and colour settings. I personally play on console and have no issues but just thought I'd say to mention everything so if there is an issue it's easier to pinpoint from multiple details

    I've been having them on rate occasions as well. Hasn't affected my gameplay that I've noticed but it's there.

    Same here. Before the patch I didn't really have much FPS drops (even on ultra on the RCPD map against a doctor). Now, I'm getting some stutters a few times a match. It is not my computer. It's only a few weeks old and I have a 3080. 🤷‍♂️

    I get a massive chug now and then where my fps goes from 120 to in the 40s. I can't see any reason for it in msi afterburner since nothing is maxed out so i guess it is just the game deciding to almost die now and then.

    I've been having them on my PC for quite a while, i5 - 4690k 3.5GHz, 3501 Mhz, 24 GB Ram. GTX 970. They got much worse after the RE chapter release and it's two patches. After the midchapter, it is running better than before the RE chapter but still has some stutters with random actions.
