When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 17.10.20 xx:xx
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? Texture Streaming jumps from None to Low(Not Ultra Low) on it's own.
What should be happening instead? Texture Streaming option isn't changed/touched without the user's prompt
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Invite a console player while playing on PC. If the effect doesn't happen immediately. Get into a match. The bug occurs whenever you enter a match/go back to lobby, so the "Where did the issue occur? ⭐" Option is non-applicable. (PS: Needs to be a squadmate for it to occur?)
Texture Streaming option is changing on it's own, whenever playing with a console friend. Via the lobby or during the match.
Also, I don't know if other Video options are being affected by this. I assume this bug is probably an issue of the game trying to sync settings with console, even if partially. And I don't know if this only affects Texture Streaming when it's set to None.
