I had another one tonight.
Map: Nostromo vs a Huntress.
Time: around 23:45
Just before I died to the Huntress, I had a huge lagspike that got me killed.Personal note: Why is this happening at the same time of day???

I've also been having really bad stutters on both sides. It's never been this bad before.

Is yours also happening at the same time of day? Im hoping im right and ill get another frame drop at 23:45 tonight.

No, it's whenever I play. For whatever reason it is worse on some killers (like Legion or Billy) though.

I've heard people mention this is a cheat or hack that can be triggered at will by bad actors. Now I'm thinking maybe it's an exploit.

Okay I figured out why it happened and its two things.
1.For some reason playing DBD in Full Windowed Mode does not tell Windows 10 that DBD is running, so maybe dont update at 23:45. It used to, but since the last patch this is no longer the case.
So I beg of you BHVR incase someone is not as clever as I around the Computer, make sure you figure out how a program tells the Operating System that it should not start updating when your game is running. I know Windows actively looks for fullscreen programs as an indicator that someone is being worked on.
Dear Bug Fixer please check if the required flags are intact and not bugged on the current build.
You can utilize the Windows API functions (SetThreadExecutionState) to inform the operating system that your application is active and should not be interrupted. This is vital for people's enjoyment of your game on Windows 10 and beyond.Please please please I hope someone sees this.
Anyway for everybody else who has experienced this I figured out that my Windows is set up to start updating during 23:30 to 12:00. SO what WE can do is…
Check your FullScreen Mode settings, putting it to Fullscreen should fix it.
OR
In your windows options go and change the Active hours, so that your Windows knows when not to start updating itself.
This fixed the problem 100% for me, I was playing 2v8 last night and ZERO problems.
Alright, so its fixable and BHVR really need to check their Windows API code for the game to make sure its OK.
All in all, happy it could be fixed.0 -
Update: NO the problem still persists. there are other types of updates that windows does which could be at fault.

Been playing over 2v8, which is great. but there is always some bs windows operation that starts in the background.
I have no clue why this is suddenly happening.0 -
This issue seems to not occur on version 9.0, but I could not find any changes regarding it on the patch notes.
what did you do?
