Re: Psa check your 2042 cache folder mine is at a bloated 1.74gb

@BigShottt6 days almost 1gb that right there shows there is a issue here. They must be stacking or uncompressed textures even that there is so many re used assets why would it grow over 1gb sense november.,

Great ideas everyone but the end user should not be fixing this obvious programing flaw.

@BigShottt Probably feeding off my sadness frustration and general disappointment in this title/s.

For real though it could be that i play alot of game modes even portal time to time.

I actually played hazard zone last week i was blown away first time this year the game found enough users to load up.

My cache folder for the open beta was only 149MB with 340 files.
My cache folder for Season 2 is 1.5GB with over 3,500 files.

It's the shader cache folder. Deleting the folder forces the game to recompile all the shaders on the CPU during gameplay which causes CPU spikes and stutters during battles.

@OskooI_007 I suppose that would explain the stutters I've being seeing the last few days which I never experienced before deleting my cache.
