Packet loss & high jitter(issue icons), game near unplayable

[B00cup]

I hope I'm not the only one having this issue, maybe others are attributing it to lag/stutter. Mainly because that is what happens, visually.

For me it's almost regular every 1.5 minutes my frames drop to 5 or lower for a few seconds then return to normal above 120. During that I get the issue icons for packet loss and high jitter as red icons, right side of screen.

Not a graphics issue as I have tried to troubleshoot so many settings, and monitoring no change in gpu processing between any of the settings changes. The problem persists. I've also noticed playing melee that none of my attacks make contact with anything even objects/walls. I assume bullets aren't making contact with anything either, just noticed it when using melee.

I haven't seen a correlation to high cpu usage and moments of packet loss/jitter when it happens on monitoring utility. The game does have high cpu usage but I can't honestly tell if it's causing the problem. I'm not sure it's an issue on my side anymore. I haven't found anyone else referencing this the same way. Latest hot fixes/gpu driver updates haven't changed anything for me.

I have attempted so many troubleshooting fixes I would have to attach a doc file to this post to list them.

If anyone has any insight I really appreciate the effort!

This started happening to me today, I have 1gb download and 500mb upload internet, and a ryzen 5950x and a RTX 3090. So it's not my specs for sure.

Are you using Windows 11 by chance? Or upgraded to the latest Nvidia driver? I noticed Windows 11 had an update today, and I also upgraded to the newest driver released yesterday. And the game also had an update so, it could be any of those things lol.

I'm running win 10, it's been like this since initial launch. Beta was flawless for me.

I'm experiencing the exact same problem. Beta worked perfectly fine and now it's borderline unplayable. I haven't found any solid fixes yet.

Same happened to me right after recent patch/driver updates

Game worked fine for me on launch but since the first hotfix I literally cant play the game now because the lag/stutter is so bad, hoping they sort it soon, so frustrating when I see other people playing the game, yet I cant.

same, very frustrating

I've spend hours figuring out wtf is going on, and I've also concluded that it's packet loss. Especially if you see the 3 red stacked rectangle icons and a meter icon on the right side flashing. I just drop to like 5 FPS.

This mostly happens when a team fight starts.

oh this might be it, im starting to have packet loss issue since ive updated my gpu driver, currently using nvidia driver ver 546.33, does anyone have tried to downgrade their gpu driver?

i've just started getting this issue now too.

I have run GlassWire to see what is happening when these lag spikes occur, everytime I get these lag spikes I get a program 'deeep-storage.anybrain.gg' which spikes.
From what I could find out, it looks like it's the games ai anti-cheat.
Good to know the anti-cheat is not only letting the hackers in but also making the game hard to play for everyone else
