Autosave stutter

[J.J. Rambo]

Hi. I have a stuttering game during autosave. Only when the hat icon appears. Does anyone know how to solve this?

[WestJake]

You can't solve this.

Is this normal? This doesn't happen in every game that has autosave.

It's badly programmed, it's on devs now.

Sometimes are worse than others...dropping to about 2-3 fps for about 10 seconds at times. I put up with it. Might be fixed at some point, but it's not a game breaker.

Yes, it's very annoying, it would be great if it could be fixed.

Everyone experience this. It's a well know game issue since the game's release. I already reported this days ago (mostly ignored, though), and the issue was also confirmed by DF's game tech review.

Yes, I agree. Please submit Feedback via the Bethesda Support channel/platform:

Yes, they should take autosave completely out of the game and change it with Quicksave with stutters.

That's debatable. Depends on what you consider and perceive as game-breaking. For me, the issue is immersion-breaking and annoying. The game maps/levels are riddled with autosave points (checkpoints), so the problem is significant considering its high occurrence rate during traversal.

The funny thing is that ID Tech engine is praised to be without traversal stuttering and they introduced it themselves lol

The autosave stutter is really annoying as it is literally the *only* thing that causes the game to stutter on my system, otherwise the game would be 100% smooth.

Sometimes it is just a minor hitch but given the placement of the auto-save points it is possible to be running when one kicks in, which causes a huge frametime spike and hitch on my system despite the game being installed to an SSD. Those are the most irksome for me and make me wish we had manual saves with auto-saves occurring less frequently.

Other games auto-save and do not cause this issue to the same degree or at all so I can only surmise that the coding is at fault here.

I just stand still until the save icon goes away. Usually 3-5 seconds. Never been in a situation where I had to fight or something dangerous when the autosave commenced.

And? Lol It's a technical issue anyway. They introduced a traversal stuttering issue due to autosave. Shameful.

Same experience. The issue is inexcusable, IMO.

This is the only technical issue I have with the game. Perfect locked 60fps... but the constant autosave ruins the flow
