Hey all,

Thanks for your feedback on this. My colleague on Reddit gave an update that I thought I would repost/summarise here.

Short story:
We are investigating, please make sure to report this also by opening a ticket through the Support Team[aka.ms] so that we give one-to-one help and gather more data useful for the investigation.

Long(er) story:
There are several issues when talking about PC performance: fps stutter, textures, the memory leak. And it's not an investigation we're just doing on the studio side, but it also involves different partners outside the studio. That being said, these issues are experienced by different users but not by everyone, which is why what we would need is to get detailed reports on when it happens, send us (through the Support website[aka.ms], by opening a ticket) your gamertag, and your GPU Trace for any case affecting frames loss/performance degradation (I know this requires some time, you can find a guide here[nvidia.custhelp.com]).

On PC, there are a lot of factors that might affect the performance, and the more data we gather, the better we can all understand what these issues are caused by.

In the meantime, if you haven't done it already, disabling Third-Party Overlays might help improve game performance (although I'm aware it didn't work for some, I think it's still worth mentioning).

Nobody at the studio likes to see there are performance issues that affect your experience, rest assured that we're keep working on this and we thank you all, as usual, for helping us with your reports.

Note: In order for this message not to get lost in the thread I have used "Mark as Answered". But I wanted to add that I regcognise that this is not an answer to this issue. If this feels like an incorrect use of "Mark as Answered" please let me know in chat and I'll take it into consideration.

Me too, poor frames...

yup same with my amd card 6800xt. Certain areas I hit 130fps 3440x1440p basically ultra presets but in others it drops down to 30-40 fps. After 30 mins of playing and a few race its stuck around now 35fps. Hot wheels dlc

Same on my RX 6800. down to 24 FPS in some areas, barely 40% GPU usage most of the time.

This GPU has had issues with this game since launch for me (mainly when lots of effects like rain, dust, sand, fireworks go off, the game noticeably drops frames) and the fact that neither AMD nor PGG has done anything to fix it is infuriating. This, however, is absolutely unacceptable. Its not even playable.

Are you getting acceptable framerates now? I didn't have any of these settings enabled in the first place and I'm still getting as low as 21 FPS on the magnet track in the forest area during the first story mission. Barely utilizing my CPU and GPU, without maxing out RAM. Horrid optimization. A very small amount of places on the map run fine (the standard 120+ FPS), but most run lower than 40FPS for me at all times.

yes, like you said. when i start from the base turn right an down the road i have extrem fps of 32.... an the card runs with 970 mhz XD

sorry this is just pathetic. maybe the run when i disabled all was pure luck.

this sucks so hard...

Crashes my entire system out, have to restart system as poor performance from the game carried over to desktop.

So, from what I gather so far:
-Huge amount of Nvidia users can't even get past the intro because they crash on the introduction mission
-AMD (at least 6800(XT)) users get around 30 FPS at all times, with it dipping into low 20's at some spots

What a launch. Unbelievable. The worst thing about the AMD issue is that this has been a problem since LAUNCH, and it has never been fixed. I have always had FPS drops when lots of cars drove through rain or sand, or when fireworks went off in the distance. Now they are extensively using the effects that cause the problem, and there you go, it suddenly becomes very clear that the problem has always been there. Well done PGG and Turn 10, absolutely genius.

I'm depressed all from over now...FFS

Same here with RTX 3070. Low GPU usage and even higher VRAM usage, I have artifacts even on ultra textures :). Like always, good job playground

6900xt with 5800x , i have framedoprs all over the place from 133 fps to 33, i move the camera around the car and frame drop like hell. The DLC is gorgios with epic light and reflections but the optimisation is on the ground. Play 15 min and CTD.
They need to fix the optimisation ASP !!!
I see now GPU Util is ranging between 6% and 45% ........... WTF xxxxxx
