Game drops fps from 60 to 40 after dlc update

[crixus3650]

The game worked perfectly fine in 60 fps all this time and now since latest update and dlc performance is a disaster like standing still in normal area the fps drops like 20 frames without any action
Does anyone have any solutions how to fix it

Same ♥♥♥♥. IDK what to do too. Very sad.

[Razgriz]

I do not have a solution but I am experiencing the same issue. Mega lame.

Paid $40 for 40fps patch. Niche

I am pretty sure the higher internet traffic has something to do with the slowdowns - was like this around base launch as well but never occurred if playing offline

was experiencing the same problem. launched the game in offline mode and stable 60 now. thank you for the idea

Switching display to full-screen borderless actually helped me here in the shadow realm. I could move about again at 60fps and got a bit bogged down at high internet traffic zones where I'm guessing plenty of those summon signs are rendering/refreshing. Likely poor optimization that will ever so slowly be patched but if you try borderless and it helps then sweet.

I am enjoying the dlc so far but i did notice that i get lower performance on the new map's overworld than on the base game's, so i assume this is just the standard optimization problems of these beefy games at launch; give it some time and they'll fix it hopefully.

Agreed. Base game was patched over months to improve quality. Still irritating enough that I may request a refund and wait until it's better optimized...

Big update here. I use NVIDIA Ray Tracing. I'm guessing NVIDIA or whoever is in charge of optimizing this feature has not had the chance to optimize. I turned it off and I'm running a snappy 60FPS again where I was previously running 30-50FPS. So cut out ray tracing for now and maybe the borderless-fullscreen had nothing to do with it... It's an ever evolving beast.

My fps is so bad... Some points I stay at 60, others, I drop to 25. I suspect it's ray tracing as well.

OP try running in borderless full screen. When i started the game my fps counter would consistently show 60 fps but it felt much lower for some reason. Saw some reddit posts about it and this was my fix. The other performance boost is to turn off ray tracing completely. Game runs 10x better for me now. It's stupid though since I have a high end 4080 5800x3d system which should run this no problem.
