"Masks Off" Lag?

[MrEWhite]

I noticed that on the level "Masks Off" after the Ceph break into Hargreave's study, the game starts having really weird slow downs that I haven't noticed anywhere else in the game. Has anyone else noticed this? I'm running maxed out at 4k with DLSS set to quality on a RTX 4090 and an i9 13900k and I haven't noticed any other issues with this game.

Noticed some people reporting this issue on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Crysis/comments/yhjepl/comment/iuhd6xb/

Yeah this seems to be somewhat of a common problem unfortunately, and the drops can be so bad it's near unplayable sometimes. I even got a crash there once because of it when normally I don't get crashes at all. I still haven't gotten round to playing on Steam but I got the same thing on Epic so I'm expecting it once I reach that part of the level. And it doesn't even matter if you change everything to low and dump the resolution, it still happens even if it improves slightly perhaps.

Some people suggested overlays would affect it, but I disabled all overlays I had and there was no difference. I saw a Steam guide on here that suggested running ultra low latency mode for this game in the Nvidia control panel, and I must say I'm not certain if I ran that on the remaster, so maybe that's worth a try if you haven't already.

The slowdowns only happened for less than a second for me, and just felt like really bad framedrops. Finished the game already, so next time I give it a playthrough I'll try out the low latency mode thing.

Just tried low latency, doesn't fix it. Oh well, honestly it's during a very short time of the game and isn't game breaking by any means. Hope they fix it, but oh well, still a kickass series!!!

Yeah, having this issue on that particular level too.
