I can't stop the stuttering from happening
Hi . Just got the game and it's great but i have a huge problem that makes the game unplayable.

The games seems to just drop to 5 fps every 10 to 15 seconds. I can't pinpoint why it's happening. I've tried countless tutorials and posts but nothing works.

Here are 2 screenshots of the game. If someone has an idea please let me know.

Specs :
GPU: RTX 4060
CPU: INTEL I7 6700K
MB: Z170N-WIFI-CF
RAM: KINGSTON KHX2133C14D4/8G (2X)
The game is installed on a NVME SSD Sandisk (can't find the exact model)

Also.. no other game does this. No matter how demanding they are. Recently i played Black Myth Wukong and Elden Ring and had no problems .
The temperatures are good both on the CPU and GPU.

Helldivers 2 is a very >>VERY<< unstable game.
I get a stutter when i press "esc" to get into the social menu or after i evac and fly back to the ship.
In the past i got a 5 sec stutter in the middle of a game and than hard disconnects.

but yours seems worse than that, I dont have it in the middle of the game anymore.

My specs are:
RTX 4080
AMD Ryzen 7900X
64GB Ram

And i play on middle Settings, because i want to save electricity.
this game has to be very smooth for me, but it still laggs here and there (jungle biome)

Some problems come form very uncommon places.
For example:
A friend of mine could get a fps boost by INCREASING the graphic settings.
Some random player had hard crashes until he changed the language to english.
Some player crash the game by throwing the orbital strike "wrong".
Untill today i can get lagspikes and crashes by simply looking at the startegem shop for too long.

I think its a CPU problem caused by the game engine and not a graphics problem.

sorry that it doesnt help.
just want you to know that you are not the only one.

Having the same issue, tried multiple solutions, none of them worked (DX11, Low Settings, Admin etc).

Doesn't happen while inside the ship, can play normally for around 5 minutes in mission then it starts stuttering for around 10 seconds every ~25 seconds.\

It also hogs my PC entirely, rendering it useless during the stutters.

Specs
Ryzen 7 5700x
RX 6650XT
2x16 ; 2x8 GB RAM 3200MHz
Game installed on SSD NVME

This is my PC behaviour while playing (the spikes or drops are relate to the stutters, which almost look like it's a scheduled loop):

already tried to lower your sound bitrate? In my case lowering to 24 bit 192kHz eliminated the stuttering, in case of built in soundcards it might require lower values, worth a try
I figured it out a bit after posting this. My issue was CPU thermal throttling, which is, for reasons unkown, happening at 80-81ºC. So i did an undervolt to lower temps and it did the trick
