1.5 turned the game into a slideshow
We all know that the game is horribly optimized. But it gets worse and worse with each patch. I am not able to play the game since the 1.5 patch. I did not change any setting. I have read about crashes in discussions or stutters every 20-30 seconds. I don't have any of that. But for me the game has less than half the FPS compared to before the patch and the game is an actual slideshow. The game tells me that it has 40-50 FPS but it's actually just one frame per second. I am in the practice tool and the moving bots just teleport from one place to the other every second. Everything is laggy and rubberbanding. Even playing vs. AI is impossible.

Was this adressed by the developers in any shape or form? Is a hotfix coming? Are there any setting changes that could help me? I have tried a lot of recommendations already and even stuff outside of the game like disabling the Windows virus protection. Nothing works. HELP!

I used to have 80-120 fps with Frame gen before the update. Now I'm in the same boat with you. There was a message about some "fix" that was implemented to fix the lag and fps drops posted by community manager on Discors and that it - no more official words about the problem.

Btw I did turn off AMD Frame Generation which helped with the rubberband. But the game is running on 30 FPS now when before the patch it was running around 100-130...

If there was a fix it is definitely not noticeable. The game is running less than half as smoothly as before the patch. There needs to be a fundamental change in the game's optimization. It's an incredibly fun game but the technical difficulties will ruin it. The game even forced me to reinstall it on my C volume SSD to run close to smoothly.
the loading is my issue. by the time i finish loading the game is 50%-80% done and iy takes a solid 2 minutes to spawn my model and projectiles in

My audio cuts out or missing completely sometimes too...
yup same with me. the game is unplayable and haven't been able to play since the new update. i go into practice range and the game is stuttering and lagging uncontrollably and idk what to do. hopefully they notice this and release a patch.

Thanks for the link. Will check it out after joining the discord group.

Turning off the frame generation helped the most. That makes the game at least borderline playable. But competitive is definitely not an option with how the game runs.

for me it's the loss of fps + a compleate audio mess ( in game and out side ) . after the 1.5 update my cpu stays bricked at 100% and other programs like discord aslo stop working .

desde que pusieron el parche de la cosa y la antorcha no puedo jugar del lag mis FPS 14 a 24 durante las partidas, por el menú si puedo navegar
cant play the game anymore after 1.5..... before, i got in match in time, with 30sec prepare time, now i cant load in at all. only had 1 out of 10 matches working and that match was so bugged i only had the map, my hud and the 12 models. nothing else did load... very sad to not be able to play a really fun game because they make their own game worse and worse
I still had issues after the "fix" but got the game running good again by doing a full uninstall and clean system of graphics driver using DDU, reboot, reinstall fresh latest version of driver, reboot again. Game now runs even better than before the patch.

I can't even get into a match after the update. My rig is a dinosaur but I could play this game with no real issue until 1.5 and now I-m stuck at 85% every single match transition.

I think I'm gonna try that as well I just don't want to spend hours on doing all of it so I'm postponing it.

I had this issue before 1.5 but managed to fix it by moving the game from volume D to C which is an SSD.
