I play at 120 fps but it feels so much lower and feels laggy
I always have 120 fps in game but it feels laggy.It is playable but NOT fun and ruins the game.Anybody has a solution to this?

No solution. Game was coded around 60fps so you will always get that odd frametime jutter. You will notice at times in the menu when you use the blood web or rotate characters it will render at the full 120 but it will usually revert if you get into a match or change the menu you are on.

People are spewing garbage.

The devs just changed the folder to WindowsClient

Go in there and open up Engine.ini and paste and remember to set read only

[/script/engine.engine]
bSmoothFrameRate=false
MinSmoothedFrameRate=5
MaxSmoothedFrameRate=165
bUseVSync=false

If you are referring to my post then I should clarify. I am talking ANIMATIONS in the main menu and lobby. The game itself when playing renders at 120fps yes but it is an uneven framepaced 120fps, which is what the OP is talking about.

Try putting it at 90 FPS that seems to be the sweet spot.

Your game must be 60 fps rn but you are right in another way this game is not feels smooth even if you play at 100-120 fps like other games

I have been playing with 120 fps for a long time and before the update it was smooth.I think its because of the update.

I'm still downloading the update but until now Dbd was running extremely smoothly at 120 fps on a 1440p 240hz G-sync Monitor (Samsung Odyssey G7), frametimes were fine.

I was also playing with the screen resolution set to 125% in Gameusersttings.ini and set low latency mode to Ultra from the NVIDIA Control panel.

You're spreading misinformation.

First of all you can't adjust the range of smoothframes.
Second even if you could, you disabled it with the first two lines so it wouldn't matter.
Third, that's the wrong location to disable Vsync.
