Stuttering is a big issue in this game

[Gonsnakex]

Seriously, even tho it loads shaders when starting the game, when I start fighting new enemies the game stutters a lot, and then if I fight them again there is no stuttering. Its really frustrating how bad performance is

why should I turn it off, without RTX the reflections look like a piece of ♥♥♥♥, and the trails from both the character and his stick split into two on the water surface, which does not happen when RTX is on at ultra.

You can keep RT on Ultra but you should not complain about game lagging and freezing when your machine does not support that level of graphical fidelity. This game has Path Tracing when RT is set to Ultra, which is extremely taxing on your GPU and CPU. RT Ultra is for 13/14 gen or equivalent CPUs and 4080+ cards. Deal with it.

Lol do you even know how the processor is used in this game? My processor works at 10-15%, while the video card is loaded at 99%, that is, it completely reveals it, what the hell 13-14 generation does it need for tracing.. you don't even understand what principles it works on, and that it needs a video card, not a processor. Moreover, this game does not have outstanding graphics, a huge number of objects, mobs, or open spaces with next-gen physics. This is a corridor slasher, with average graphics that lose to the same Ark of Ascension. The developers are simply crooked hands that they optimized the corridor empty world in such a way, while the compilation of shaders occurs at the first launch, and the game does not give a damn, it still freezes in the same places, loading parts of the map in real time

I've 4080 and it runs fine. Disable RT and maybe redo shader compilation. Update your nvidia drivers and it will recompile.

Ok, I did this, a tip from the first descendant forum, idk if this is the cause, but the game ran fine for me after I did it:

Your shader cache may be wonky and in need of clearing. If you don't know how to do so, I'll help you out.

If you're using an NVIDIA card, open the NVIDIA Control Panel and navigate to Manage 3D settings > Global Settings > Shader Cache Size, and change it to Disabled.

Restart your PC, open File Explorer, navigate to this path:

"C:\Users\YourUserNameHere\AppData\Local\NVIDIA\GLCache"

Delete the folder with all the numbers and letters. In NVIDIA Control Panel, change the shader cache back to its original value or just 5GB to be safe, and reboot once more. When you launch The First Descendant, it should rebuild its shader cache and hopefully fix your performance.

If you're using an AMD graphics card, open AMD Radeon Software, click the gear icon in the top-right, click Graphics, scroll down and expand Advanced section, and hit "Reset Shader Cache".

Hopefully this should fix it for you. I limited my FPS to 10 when I walked away from my machine before when the game was building the shader cache and when I came back and put my FPS back to normal my game ran at 20-30FPS constantly. I relaunched the game to see if it was just a fluke and it stayed. I had to clear my shader cache and leave my FPS uncapped while the shader cache was building and it played smooth.

Turn RTX off/

standard troubleshooting procedure.
Turn it off just to see if it helps. If it does then you can decide if youd rather steady frames or pretty reflections. Either way it doesnt matter to me. It doesnt stutter with my setup and it looks more than fine.

He wrote stutter not crash and YES it stutters like the plague (classic unreal engine first version)

15 hours gameplay with one stutter as the big Turtle landed at the north beach otherwise 60-50 fps with v-sync on ultra rt off

The game needs a few performance patches. Lets hope they do something about it

I solved it by capping the frames at 60, I have a 4080 and a 3440x1440 monitor, all other tests had given no results. However, patches are definitely needed.

Capping frames DOES NOT resolve stuttering issues. The stuttering issues that this game has are cause by trasversal stutters and shader compilation. This is an issue that Games Science must fix and players can't do anything about that. Your fix is just placebo

If you change graphics settings alot back and fort, the game will stutter way more when raytracing is on. So the game needs a restart. This is all due to the UE5 version the game is using. Devs need to update and patch or get major help from Epic Games, I have a feeling that this game wont be optimized properly until 2025 as the devs seem only to care about how much they can make on sales of this game at the moment. Time will tell.

yeah...me either the game runs 70-100fps but keep stuttering and freezing overtime....i just make refund process, i dont understand why this happened...but if we look at the reviews many player seems ok and nothing problem

Try setting the application priority to "high priority" in task manager. You don't need to use a mod to do that, just launch the game, alt-tab to desktop, find the main executable in task manager (has about 2GB RAM loaded at launch), right click on it and set priority.

I'm sure this won't work for everyone but it did for me.

The thing guys is that this game is a masterpiece but what is going on with the graphics and not only the graphics its just ridiculous at least, I have the 4070 and I start the game at "very high" RTX on etc and you play smoothly but when you go to the boss you transform and its not playable anymore from stuttering, why ? just tell me a reason , after that you low the graphics even to low and still you have stuttering everywhere, the last time I put it on low like I said was OK and when I died and go to the check point I go to "store" - "buy" and when I go out I couldn't play the game not even walk around from the stuttering, this is just ridiculous I repeat , do you have this problem with the PS5 ? simply answer NO, so the PC game through the companies of cause did it again , doesn't worth with all this problems that you experience and make your moment with the game really joylessness and frustrating to buy this kind AAA of games at PC , you see complains from users with 4090 , seriously now ? come on lets be realistic and objective and not be sheeps consumers to make the companies try to change their position in this and do much much better job, I will stop the game after 6 hours and when we have the physical version on PS5 I will rent the game and play it , because I don't give any money after this PC experience , you wait a game for 3 years , you try it , you get so exiting and you have this ridicules disgusting technical issues that gives you the worst experience of a game so far! very sad and disappointed indeed!

The freezing is the biggest problem for me if i use high or all graphics settings low the game keeps freezing for me the problem came when i got to chapter 2 chapter 1 had no problem at all :((((
