FPS Drops While Explosions
Hello there. The case just like in the topic. While provoking explosion I have huge FPS drops (almost to 0 for a 0,5 second). How can I fix that? Please, help me.

i5-7600k
GTX 1060 6gb
16 GB RAM

Just an FYI, I did report a similar performance / FPS drops to the official support channels but all I have received at the moment is to validate the game cache, which I did and of course all of the files were successfully validated so there is nothing wrong with the game cache.

Furthermore, from my side I am running a Core i9 7900x, an evga RTX 2080 Ti (current Nvidia drivers), along with 32 gb of RAM. I am running the game in 3440 x 1440 and borderless and I do not have any problems with any other games or even in the prior Just Cause 3.

For Just Cause 4 I can play for awhile but during a battle the game becomes a PowerPoint presentation as the FPS will dramatically drop. Other people in the Steam forums have reported the same issue so I know its not isolated to either of us but affected in the game engine, my suspicion is its a memory leak that was never fixed.

Since this game is still being actively sold I would hope that both the publisher and dev team will still fix the game breaking bugs. Like I said I would hope!!

Yeah I have stutter too every time something explodes. i7 8700, 16g ram, rtx 2080. With the devs not providing performances fixes and instead focusing on dlc which you can't enjoy because of the performance I don't see this being fixed soon and I don't see myself buying their next game.
While you are playing, disconnect the internet and the game no longer has fps drops (works for me ). Why? I don't know clearly, but it can be a problem sending or receiving data to JC4 servers

Yea I didn't notice this post and made my own about a similar issue. For me it seems to only happen when the chaos meter pops up. If the thing I'm blowing up doesn't cause the chaos meter to come up no fps drop, and even if the explosion is far away and behind me if it causes the chaos meter to come up then I get fps drops.

I tried some graphics card optimizations. But it doesn't work at all.
But I blocked 'justcause4.exe' in 'Outbound Rules' in Windows Firewall to block internet connection. after that the game no longer has fps drops.
Thanks.

i can confim .. fps drops from 60 to 5 happens ONLY when you are online. Turn off internet and its completely fine, no fps drops.

Makes you wonder .. why pay for broken product that cant be played online when .. you know .. there are other sources that makes better job and you can actually enjoy the gameplay.
Unbelievable that they did nothing about it after 2 years since release.
