Re: Frame Rate Drops in NFS Most Wanted PC

I have the same problem and it looks like others have it as well.  I pre-ordered this game as I really enjoyed the Hot Pursuit remake, so I thought this would be some of the same.  It is, accept the FPS in this game is horrible.  Im wondering if this may be an issue with Windows 8?  as I just recently upgraded. 

Im running this on a i7 laptop with a 3GB GTX 560M.  I also have 24GB Ram.  The specs should not be an issue.  I have tried downgrading the graphics but the same slowness in the tunnels and other places still exist with little effect from different grpahic options. 

This game doesn't seem to look as good as Hot Pursuit, and somehow also tends to run poorly.  I run all other games without issue from NFS Hot Pursuit to BF3, this is the only gaming giving me stuttering or slowness.  I also understand it is a open world game, but its running off of my Samsung 830 256GB SSD, so you would think any grabbing from the HDD would have minimal effects on performance.  Again, I can run any other game all day long with zero stuttering or FPS drop that I see in this game.  Its very distracting and annoying.  Had I known it would run like this I would not have purchased it.

    Yeah I'm also on windows 8 as well, and I have a feeling it might be the cause? Hmmm....

    I'm still on Windows 7 Pro 64 and my framerate isn't that great either.

    Intel Core i7 2600k 3.8ghz

    16 GB RAM

    GTX 580 with newest drivers

    I really figured my machine could run this game smoothly maxed out at 1920x1080, but it gets a bit choppy in cluttered areas. And as others have mentioned it doesn't look as crisp and clean as I expected either.

    I just played it on windows 7 64 bit and windows 8 64 bit and have had the exact same frame rate issues... so I think it's just a poorly optomized game, maybe in a patch they will improve performance or video card drivers will get updated to give better frame rate... would be a lot easier to play at a steady 60 FPS 🙂

    working on the settings I managed to get 60 fps in every situation .... the problem is the stuttering that occurs randomly (drops from 60fps to 59 and then back to 60, creating stuttering)

    spec:
    MB - Sabertooth Z77
    CPU - i5 3570K
    GPU - Gigabyte GTX 670 OC
    RAM - Corsair Dominator Platinum 4x2gb 1866

    I hope a patch comes out soon

    I too have this problem. It's really annoying and it's always the same parts that stutters. In the city it's stuttering down to 20-30 fps while driving in the mountains runs flawlessly. This is on 1920x1080 with the maximum settings available in game.

    So it seems that a lot of us are having the same issue. We all have the recommended specs or higher and we are experiencing stuttering in populated areas where the frame rate in some cases will cut in half. Some people get a steady 60FPS though and I'm curious why some people have stable frame rate and others are experiencing drops that make it hard to play. Thank you EA for reading into this situation and I'm hoping this gets addresses in a future patch.

    you've hit it on the nose. The game is not properly utilzing hardware and the framerate is poor even with lowered settings.

    Yes me too. Really disappointed as the last game I bought from Criterion was Burnout Paradise which flew on the pc on average systems (which is why I bought this game). I have a high end system and it is just unplayable at times.

    All Gamers care about is a smooth fast playing experience not fancy graphics.

    I was hesitant to buy the game because of all the negitive feedback however im glad
    I did... I have a Gigabyte MB with a z77 chip set with a I 5 3570k, 840 pro ssd,Gigabyte
    670 gtx and the game almost always runs at 60 fps. I also have the latest drivers, perhaps
    The issue is resolved.

    This framerate issue will be resolved when everybody with descent gaming PCs will no longer stutters or have fps drops (below 60fps) anywhere ingame... 

    Unfortunately, this is not the case.

    Still no improvement?

    It is clearly proved that EA and criterion developers are irresponsible.

    These guys are cyber terrorists which disguised as game developers. Worthless tricksters throughout whole the universe.

    Maybe, just stupid little monkeys.

    Oh you don't think so? F**k you. You don't have a credibility about that. User decide it.
