Performance is getting worse with every patch
The worst part is it isnt even consistent. With every patch it seems I get unplayable FPS drops 1-2 games sooner in every session.

anyone else get this? random freezes, actual legit teleporting as if its from lag with a stable ethernet connection? Sometimes its from game one other times game 4

idk it got better for me after the most recent patch, when season 2 first came out it was the worst
As better hardware launches devs adjust their games towards that.

Ask TF2 players. You can't run TF2 on the same computer you used in 2009 anymore.

Which is funny because TF2s graphics were massively downgraded for the F2P update. It looks considerably worse now.

My Pc isnt too old, and I just updated to 32gb from 16 ram primarily because of this games performance and RAM usage. It legit made no different which is pretty frustrating.

The weird part, is that it isn't necessarily about visuals.

People always use the word "optimize" without understanding what it means. Optimizing is targeting certain components and making your game run well on them.
The best way to optimize is farm data and gear your game towards the majority of the hardware running the game.

As a UE5 title, Rivals is already demanding. So the playerbase, in general, is going to consist of nicer rigs than say, Overwatch 2 (which runs on a potato).

They'll optimize their game towards that higher end as a result.
To make the game run nice, you'll need a brand new M2 SSD, A high-end GPU, and a CPU that is in the top percentile of performance.

I have these things and the game runs flawlessly.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

The PCL has spiked across the game. I had to tweak a lot to get it to a reasonable amount after the 4/25 patch. Like it's not even just in match, the PCL for the Play Screen doubled for no reason.
My computer used to run this game just fine until the "Big Head" update. My ping is low and internet is stable but I'm still teleporting. I've tried every fix from these Discussion boards since December and it doesn't seem to be working. I'm not sure what to do other than just drop this game.

What are the specs? CPU, GPU, RAM. If you're on Intel and Nvidia, I can share what I've done so far.
100%. The turning point was 1.5 patch - that was a HUGE performance drop. The devs do nothing (probably because they have no clue how to fix trash UE5). People stop playing because of the performance and rightfully so. Hopefully, it will motivate them to do something.
Why would you use trash UE5 when you have decent UE4 (the graphics in the game are not that amazing to justify the usage of utter garbage UE5).
