Does anyone else lag when driving?
When I’m doing foot patrol the game renders everything fine. But when I’m driving the game slows down a lot, no matter how low I put my settings

I can confirm. massive lags in car on driving. On foot only small lags from time to time, but good fps in the avarage. But lags can kill any good experience even with high fps. Lower fps are better than any lag.

Walking pedestrains in the distance seem to render at much lower fps. It seems like the LOD animation is at half of the fps or even below. Especially when I search for wanted people this irritates me and I think my fps have went down, but they didn't, they are still around 60. It's just the animation...

The lag is awful, making the game almost unplayable.
In addition, the loading of the graphic details is far too slow.
Please fix it ASAP :(

Hardware will likely be your issue, I don't have a beefy PC 'Graphics GTX 960 4GB - Processor FX-8350 - 16GB RAM' I only ever lag at the start of a shift as it's trying to load everything from a fresh login on my PC after a shutdown, it roughly takes around a minute to stabilize on an HDD, I'd also probably say the most likely cause is due to the view distance, the further, most likely the better, I only get 1 lag after the initial start of a shift, if it does happen hold the 'reverse/handbrake' for optimal stopping until it stops lagging to avoid disaster, I'm assuming it's because one part of the map wasn't loaded due to distancing regarding likely view distance, after that, game runs smooth as long as I keep choosing the same region

Sometimes but i noticed this is the case with all UE4 simulators. But that lag isn't terrible for me.

I have a beefy computer and I lag a lot while driving. Its on the software or server side when it comes with the drawing of cars, peds, buildings and the road ahead. As you drive, traffic of new cars appear in a blink as they are being drawn then deleted when you past at a distance. Also, if your playing multiplayer its even worst as the server side is sending the information to two computers and it can't seem to keep up. The game servers need to probably be updated to better hardware to handle the loads.
(This is speculation as I am not a guru concerning servers or software)

My Computer Specs:
Ryzen 9 5950x 16 core 4.9Ghz
AMD RX 6800 XT 16Gb GDDR6
Dual Channel DDR4 XMP Memory (32 GB) at 3466MHz
2TB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD Hard drive

If you are in doubt that its not the hardware.....This game should run like melted butter

My lag experience lies on my joystick for aero and wheel/pedals connected, (that I´ll never disconnect cause of a game) this game has an "auto-recognizing gmaepad (that I´ll never use), resuming, every time my other controls (joystick, wheel, pedal) send a signal, the game lag and change to gamepad or whatever control, I use keyboard/mouse, so when I play it lags back, switching back and forth all the time, imagine the frustration. Even the game recognizing my control signals, I can´t bind to use only to drive the car. Dev´s, I think you could add a switch in config to turn off control recognition.

Thanks.

Hey everyone! If you suffer from performance problems, it would be nice if you could send me your full hardware specifications (Please search for Settings > System > Info on your PC) and a description of your performance and area of issues :)

I try to avoid driving in this game for this reason.

The way I reduced the stuttering affecting the gameplay as much was too limit the framerate of the game in my GPU settings to 30fps. This makes stuttering less frequent, especially when walking, and less noticable too.

my game runs smooth and 90 fps but durning driving still 90 fps but the world loading in make it hard to drive
