Performance tips
For those of you having performance issues and are trying to run on Ultra/high I'd recommend the following. (They are in order of performance impact)

1). Turning Sun Shadows to normal. The Nvidia specific settings kill fps
2). Set Planar reflection to Normal down from high.
3). Set Shadow detail to medium
4). If you also experience fps drops in large fights setting effects down to normal helps.

Just with these changes my FPS more than doubled. A temporary workaorund until they hopefully patch these issues.

If you are only concerned about getting 60, you maye not have to change them all.

Example here from my review:

System Specs


i7 7600k
32gb DDR4
GTX 1080 - using latest drivers for Agents of Mayhem
Win 10 64 Pro

For the FPS drops when mousing between weapon skins and the drops that happen when opening chests and levelling up we'll have to wait for a fix.

Also if you're like me and have been tweaking the settings for the past hour to no avail, double check you have the latest drivers installed hehehe. Downloading mine now to see the difference and will also try out these settings if its not better.

Thanks man!

This actually helps! I am using a 1070 which should be more than powerful enough to run at really high FPS, but until Volition patches some things up, this works great! Thank you!

Unfortunately for me new drivers actually dropped my fps. The lowest FPS I saw with the new drivers was 35 when testing in the same area as the video vs 47. Overall though my fps is about 5-10 lower.

I saw a performance drop, too. It was pretty bad.

Guess if a game doesn't do as well as the devs want, they drop it completely. Sad on Volition's part.

Neat, went from 90 to 190 in most demanding place, thanks!
