MASSIVE FPS DROPS!!

[JustTheGooch]

I ran the game at 60+ up to 100 fps. ever since the update my fps has been on a ♥♥♥♥♥ up Pogo stick ride. My last round it dropped from 55 to 3 FPS and did not recover!!!! This needs to be addressed and fixed asap. idk if it a cpu or a gpu issue but something is not jiving that was not an issue as of pre-patch.

[mack]

yeah, this patch has introduced some annoying hitching

[LifeIsPain]

yes, i got stutters after the update

[AlexThePan]

same here

[Slinks]

Turnt down my graphics from high to medium on 4k
Not sure what they did but noticed a big performance dip post patch

[ImagoGestalter]

Pretty hard hitting frame drops here as well.

[NITRO]

Same here. Performance tanked 20fps and GPU temps are 15C higher. IDK wtf they did but playing this game is like playing russian roulette with my GPU.

[MAHORAGA]

i get 15 fps with the reccomended benchmarks with half the enemies how do you mess up this bad

[Daze]

went from a completely playable 60fps to a 5fps stutterfest

Oh man now I found this thread and here I was opening another one, sigh.
Good to know it's not only me.

change your resolution to anything, then back

No real FPS drop for me but stutters/hitching occurs now and then, especially when loading new areas.

Something is wrong with the last patch. One of my friends has the same issue. His GPU is a AMD RX6600.

Didn't worked for me. I also tried to reset video settings tab and change fullscreen to windowed fullscreen. Verified steam data. Nothing helped, game runs like ♥♥♥♥... Before update it run flawlessly.

Helldivers 3.0 no hot fix just keep it going another ♥♥♥♥♥♥ DEV team..

I noticed that the GPU usage is very low, at 40-70%, CPU 50-60%. It seems as if the game is not using the resources fully.

well, I'm positive at the release they were using all CPU and GPU because I was 95% CPU usage and GPU was also decent - however, I'm limited by my CPU which is an i7-4770k from 2013.. and I was running 99 celsius on the CPU.

what I've noticed helping more than 10 or 20 people so far to run their games since the release is, people's hardware fail when under stress and they immediately associate this issue with the game itself, not with the fact their CPU cannot handle stress or their GPU is overheating.

and it's actually rather smart from Unreal or Unity to make sure none of the games shipped with their engines actually uses hardware at full scale, or else, people would have the same issue and associate problems with engine A or engine B.

I wouldn't be surprised if the solution the developers deliver is to make sure to use just "50%" maximum processor.. will fix issues for 90% of the people out there, BUT, will also decrease a lot FPS.. maybe next patch they come with another solution, lets decrease the overall quality and geometry and because all the scenes are much simpler, people will get their frames back.
