Stuttering/Freezing/FPS Drops Problems

[FTC_Woop]

Hello all,

 

probably since this last game update (I didn't play all that much in the past) I've been having massive issues with the game. You can find my PC info at the bottom of this post.

 

The issues are as follows:

Game freezes on spawning into a plane, takes about 3-4 seconds to smoothen out.

Quite a bit of stuttering in Multiplayer, mostly on the big servers.

Frequent FPS drops. Frames sit nicely at around 40-50 on most maps, with many drops to 10 or 1 fps that last a few seconds, with no apparent cause. Kuban spring map is virtually unplayable with an average of 10 fps, with lots of drops to 1 fps.

Screen/pixel tearing when moving head with TrackIR5.

 

I have updated my gpu drivers to the latest version.

The issues persist with full screen mode on too.

I do not run any compatibility settings.

The problems are minimal in Single player.

 

I see my card is struggling. I use Open Hardware Monitor and I can see that my card is constantly at 99/100% load, with temps at around 80 degrees Celsius.

 

I need help!

Thanks in advance.

I'll have a video up on YT in about an hour, showing how the game plays right now.

Hello woop.

 

You forgot to list your in-game settings. We have very similar computers, so I can try to replicate your issues.

Any ingame settings have these issues for me. But here is what I used before the update and it worked great.

since the update, my Vram usage at 1920x1080 is between 2.8g to 3.4 (depend of textures settings), unfortunately  a gtx 960  look short on vram for this update

 

edit:i just realized the ingame distant terrain setting make a big difference on Vram usage, just tried to normal and usage was around 1.6g, i guess this setting is important to be set according the available vram tough , my apologies for misleading infos i said earlier, 2g is enough Vram to run this !
