Multiple Games Glitching Out
so I have been experiencing multiple glitches on different games. There a lot of games so I will list the games and the bugs they have. I am pretty sure these bugs are related too. All of these games are on steam.

here is the list of games

Stick Fight: The Game
opponents are frozen for the first 15-20 seconds of a match. Happens with online players. Not sure if it happens with local players because I haven't played Stick Fight with someone local.

Grand Theft Auto 5
Local players freeze in locations when driving. When walking/running they teleport and slide around.

Watch_Dogs 2/Ghost Recon: Wildlands
Same bug for both games probably the worst of them. Happens with both online and local players. Whenever someone is in a vehicle. the vehicles glitch out all over the place, they stay still even though its moving, go underground, teleport to the opposite side of the map, etc. Although only in Wildlands, Vehicles not being used by a player are also glitching out

War Thunder
Happens with both online and local players. Least effective of them all, but in the army gamemode, tanks will be jerking left and right constantly

I am pretty sure these bugs are related but I am not sure.
Is there any way to fix any of these bugs? Even just fixing one would be great.

You'll need to be more forthcoming about your computer system before any help can possibly be given.

Go up to the top of your Steam library window and click HELP > SYSTEM INFORMATION and paste the ENTIRE list here. That will show us your system specs and whether the drivers are up to date, etc.

It sounds like your internet is janky, but also there may be issues with your firewall or virus scanners. If you can, make sure that your virus scanner and firewall are NOT scanning steam, nor in use while steam needs to be online. ("live" scanning for web use in other words)

Were your games EVER able to be played without these issues, on that EXACT computer?

Go into your hardware / device manager and *make absolutely sure* that your onboard graphic chipset is DISABLED. "Video cards: 2" may be the problem here.

Windows 10 is NOTORIOUS for changing settings on video cards, leading an otherwise functional device to not be used. I strongly suspect your games have been told to use whatever craptastic chipset is embedded in the motherboard. Particularly since you say they worked fine: that's indicative of Windows 10 having updated, and screwed it up.

Hopefully that will help! If not... please come back and say so :)

Can you plug both monitors into the card? If the other one doesn't work after you disabled the mobo chip, that means it was plugged into that connector and not the card.

Have you rebooted regularly since doing any of these things?

More than likely, your firewall rules wouldn't have anything to do with this. You have some kind of either internet issue or something that is related to all of these games like a processing issue when certain graghics come into play.
You could also have a virus or an unknown process eating up juice and causing this.

How do those or other heavy games with no internet run? [single player-offline]..If they run fine, then it's internet based...If they don't then it's something that's juicing your pc for one reason or another or glitching on certain code or heavy-processing areas.

Also indicative of a virus or new process that's a real power-sucker

Have you installed anything new recently??? is another good process of elimination.
Noticed anything strange or lagged on bootup, startup time on apps, anything at all?
Been to any new sites with ads or popups recently?

also sorry for late reply
Zekiran Dec 7, 2019 @ 1:29pm 
If it's now only the multiplayer games having issues, it's still the firewall likely trying to do 'live' scans, on online interactions.

That, or your internet is not handling it well.

sorry for the late reply, but i have played ghost recon recently with a friend (locally) and its still as glitchy as ever
Zekiran Dec 24, 2019 @ 6:42pm 
If that's the one game still doing it, I'd say you should probably search and post over on that forum. It may be a known issue, or one that others are experiencing.
hjonesjr Dec 25, 2019 @ 7:41am 
Its not that one game, but idk if these bugs are connected so idk
