Micro-lags

[Nekros]

Did anyone experience micro-lags while playing? When I walk there is like a half a second lag that happens each second or two. When I played a year ago I only had to put RDR2 on high priority in task manager but now it doesn't work anymore. It's frustrating because playing that way is not smooth at all.

its really bad now, game performance has plummeted to unplayable

I have micro stutter every 30 minutes or 15, dont have counted, but is only for one second and is playable. Of course not is good thing.

Also i have it from day one.

It seems that they updated the game, but instead of making it better, they f*cked up the performance :/

Typical Rockstar. We have no other choice but to wait for a patch that will fix it. I hope they will deal with this soon because I want to play it for the third time and I can't because these micro-lags/micro-stutters make the gameplay uncomfortable.

roll back your nvidia driver to old ones (like version at end of 2020)
after that you install go to geforce and install the recent one,

That doesn't work unfortunately. I tried many solutions and I'm starting to think that maybe it's something in the game engine. Maybe R* broke something when they released a specific patch, idk

Yeah, this GTA Online has completely changed them. They weren't as greedy and ignorant before. Gimme back old Rockstar :'(

Update: Ok, it seems that it's on Rockstar's side as I tried literally everything that could help like reinstalling the game, verifying the files, clean installing the drivers, lowering the settings, rolling back to old GPU drivers etc. Nothing helped. The game still has these micro lags so we'll have to wait for another patch because the last one definitely broke the game, at least for some of us.

Me i have a "lag" issue when i'm on town . when i turned the caméra even at Valentine. Never fixed by Rockstar.
Also i have a question : i'm on 9700k and my CPU usage is almost 80 sometimes . This is "normal" ?

I think yes. The important not is 100% for your cpu.

actually I had this micro stuttering on April or March can't remember, I got this with Vulkan, and when using Directx was okay no problem, this occurred almost one month every thing i try clean rdr2 installation, driver update (except you reinstall your windows it will work but i don't want to do it) until i rolled back my driver to very old one, can remember which version but it is far before year 2021 release, then i tried playing rdo with it and it worked, after that i tried to install the recent one (without uninstalling the old one manually) just updated it in the GeForce and fortunately it never happens again till now

as i remember this micro stutter is an old bug but can reappear because of the new update (maybe i got this in the update of Outlaw pass 5)

Yeah, I tried many ways with the drivers as well as switching to DX12 but it didn't work. What seems to reduce the stutter is the "-cpuloadrebalance" commend but the game still isn't as smooth as it was in 2020. I have fps drops, microstutters are occasional but still there and sometimes some textures are flickering, sort of graphical artifacts on various objects. It's probably the newest patch that caused this because in june 2020 when I played it was as smooth as a butter :(
