performance is bad after last update

[Blink]

been playing this game for pretty much a year now and after the last update i went from smooth 90fps to drops as low as 47 and for some reason its always like 45 to 50 any fix?

This means nothing without a GPU/CPU utilization figure.

i mean im on a 2060 super was getting a hard 90fps on all maps no drops now it will drop after like 3 mins to 50 so his should be even better

Really killed my framerate even on a 6800 xt amd gpu

Try turning off Ambient Occlusion in the graphics settings. Maybe play with the quality settings in there, too.

Same here. 4090 / 5800X3D / M.2. The game is very laggy majority of the time. I have no such issues playing Exfil Zone with maxed out settings and VD set to Godlike.

Have you guys tried to run this with OpenComposite? Gives many games lots more fps for me.

gonna sound really dumb but whats that ?

I think VDXR is supposed to be an alternative to OpenComposite, but sadly the performance is still very bad (everything is super jittery) when using VDXR runtime.

Same here

i never had lag in this game, now i barely can plan without getting delayed on small actions and i only played on room randomizer. I don't even try to complete a mission or play with people i won't be any help if i have some quick freezes almost everytime. I hope they will fix this issue soon, i love this game.

there's a read me. Im not good with this either, but basicly it runs the game without steamVR (which steals fps). For example: When I play DCS with steamVR I get around 70fps but when through OpenComposite it runs in 90fps. Its worth to take a look.

VDXR in Virtual Desktop does the same thing - it bypasses SteamVR runtime. The performance is still abysmal though, so it seems to be an issue with the game optimization in general.

same issue, the game used to play perfectly, but now it runs really bad. tried running on both SteamVR and Virtual Desktop, both run really bad. I thought the problem was on my end, but I tried Alyx and it still runs perfectly. it's an issue on their end, something in the update broke the game.
