Hi, I've had a few people mention this to me - it's something I've brought up with the team so we are aware, I'll update if I get any more information.

Yes, I have the exact sane issue

I’ve gone from 120 fps before the update, to about 80 now post-patch. Not game breaking or anything but there’s been a noticeable drop in performance for me as well.

One side question: How can I disable AA in this patch? It seems like the old method doesnt work anymore?

My FPS usually drop on any indoor map and Ormond. Idk why those maps are problematic, every other map works fine for me.

Having the same issues on PS4, low frame rate on all maps. @MandyTalk any update please?

Not many reports about this issue guys. Im scared that we will be left behind or need to wait 6 months for a fix :(

We have been waiting years for the console optimization which the devs promised, they have swept it under the rug...

Came here for the same reason. Game stutters like clockwork every 15 to 20 seconds. I completely disabled the Steam overlay which helps but doesn't fix it completely. When I was running it to monitor FPS it would go from 62 (Assuming this is a 60 FPS cap throttle) to 25 or 30 for a second, which is enough to fail skill checks, get hit, miss swings, etc.

No they didnt, they just disguised the optimization for consoles as a new dbd chapter designed to just lower everybody elses fps to match consoles.
Bam! Optimization completed!
Lol im enjoying reading all the comments from pc players complaining about their fps.
Everybody kept saying ahh its not that bad ect ect and now the pc players actually realize we werent just blowing smoke and it does effect the game majorly.
Enjoy the new dbd.

No fps drop for me but sometimes stutter, first time something like that happens to me.

Yea, for sure bud. I'm getting this same problem. My fps drops to 50 to 15 & the cpu usage is beyond 50%. It always stays at 94%. How can you suppose to press a normal skill check when you have this horrible kind of problem.

I'm not getting this, but pallet breaking and survivor wiggling looks like 10 fps animations

I played on PC most the day and PS4 Pro tonight and both platforms were very smooth. I didn't notice any frame drops, even on the new maps with lots of fog. I have a high end PC, so my machine can easily handle this game.
However, on Xbox One X, which should perform better than the Pro, I noticed a ton of stuttering and frame drops. It is very noticeable.

I was getting stutters when I first started playing. After 3-4 matches, the stutters went away luckily. (PC)

I am getting tons of stutter from this game's recent update patch.
I am also getting killers that seam to be cheating and maybe they aren't. - The problem with Crossplay and cross platform is; If the killer is from another network that is different than the players they are facing off. It is EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. Because nobody wants to be struck or hit by someone that actually wasn't behind them on screen.

I must say, that its even worse than before after this update. I had perfect 60 fps on the standard maps like macmillan. Now it drops from time to time.

Happens against every player.

I'm on PC and my game seems even smoother than before.
Maybe we can post some specs/Windows version/who you were matched against? (Like, cross-platform, same platform, etc)
I've got a 1080 Ti, 64 GB of RAM, game's on an nVME SSD, and a 3900x, on the most recent version of Windows 10.
Might help to establish a pattern of who is getting performance losses.

Freddy always caused me to stutter, but since the update, its been far worse.
I will randomly, but not too terribly often, stutter at the start of the game
Opening chests causes me to stutter sometimes.

Got the dlc and updated to the new version today. According to the Steam overlay, my framerate has tanked to 1 fps while in the main menu.

I sent in a ticket. Haven't heard back yet, but hopefully they can sort it out soon.

Stuttering is unbearable when playing the blight on Hawkins. EVERY time you use the power, there are huge stutters after hitting a wall. (PS4)

I'm on Xbox one S (a model probably under PC) and I don't have any FPS problems... except in the asylum, that's old ! So don't expect a change.🤗

Does the Game run smoother after the mini patch for anyone too? I had a full match 60 fps on ultra

I gotta repost this here because I think it's relevant:
I think there's some (more) memory leaks or some other things like processes never getting disabled, because I've found that framerate gets worse and worse the more games I play.
For example, this was Yamaoka with the Blight. In certain loops the framerate was the worst thing I have ever experienced
I mean, the worst until I played this game as Myers (and trust me, watch it until the end):
after the Myers game I decided to restart the game and I played with the Huntress - fps seemed much, much better! I don't even know if and how to report this issue though, at this point.
This is all on PS4

Should toss that onto the Q&A post as example.

Try turning off auto adjust, worked for me
