Frame rate drops on pause

[JayMcNastee]

The game will be running great but anytime I go into the pause menu or hit tab and then go back into game my frame rate drops from 80-90fps too a steady 7fps. Anybody else having this issue? I'm at a loss...

Same issues here ... CPU utilization drops and I get only 10 FPS

Same issue here. It seems to happen after about an hour of playing. I've noticed it happen on tabs within the pause menu as well (loadouts, crafting, skills).

It looks like it's an old bug that may have to do with the terrain settings. I found a Reddit thread from 3yrs ago that may help: https://www.reddit.com/r/BreakPoint/comments/iuturm/fps_drop_after_leaving_menus/

Have you tried making sure the game is utilizing all CPU cores through task manager?

Swap to dx11 and out of vulcan or dx12 or whatever
