How to change FPS cap?
Does anyone know how to actually change the FPS cap in this game even though there is one that doesn't do ♥♥♥♥?
I put the FPS cap on unlimited in-game but it still caps at 60.

if you get under 60 frames thats on your end, the FPS cap works fine for me and all my friends

It rarely falls under 60 FPS
It's constantly stuck at 60. There's no way it just happens to be on 60 the whole time

Yeah I know that, as I said, even with FPS cap on unlimited, it still caps at 60.

Double check that Vsync is disabled in your gpu control panel. If the game is set to unlimited, but it's still locking at 60fps, then something is locking it down other than the game.

It isn't locked at 60, else I wouldn't notice a difference between 60hz and 144hz on my monitor.

I checked and Vsync is disabled. I have no idea what could be causing it.

Just changing the cap to unlimited in-game settings should make it work.
It stays at solid 60 in the menus but in the actual game it caps at 200.

edit: posted because I was once confused by the game showing constant 60 in the menus, thought that it was capped for good.

I turned on both the game's FPS counter and Steam's. Both say 60 FPS the whole time.
I don't mind, as a matter of fact 60 FPS is good, but I get lag spikes sometimes (framerate drops) and if it's capped, it won't help much. If it's not capped and I get the FPS that I'm supposed to get (I'm guessing 100+ FPS), the lag spikes will be much less to worry about.

In the menu it is capped at 60, but also in-game.

You're having a weird issue bud, this game is easy to run so you should sit at least a 144fps average with a mid tier card. I get about a 180 fps average with x8 msaa, lol, it has to be a software glitch somewhere in your system.

Maybe in your display settings you have Vsync on and you're on 60hz?
