My FPS Dropped From 150s to 30-70 after latest update

Thanks god i'm not alone! Dont worry, you are not alone too!

This is my Rig:
RTX 5060 TI 16GB
AMD Ryzen 5 7500F
RAM: 16GBx2 (32GB) DIMM 6000 MT/s
SSD: M.2 NVMe WD Blue SN5000 500GB

Before the update i had like 98-100% GPU Usage all the time without big drops. Now i have like 88-98% GPU Usage. Mostly 94-98% GPU Usage but often with drops into the 80's (88-94% depending on situation). I had like 120-135 FPS all the time without drops under 100. Now i have 110-120 FPS often with drops to 89-99 FPS and staying there for some seconds depending on situation. CPU Usage got up to 85-100% from like 60-80%, great...

So that means they did something in this update that is more CPU intensive. Not really more GPU intensive but CPU. So Everything worse than AMD Ryzen 5 7500f (Ryzen 5 7500f included) will make your experience CPU bound now...

I already thought my drivers are broken or i've got something bad on my computer, but nope. It's just EA/Dice making the game runs worse than before.

And i can't help you btw. Forgot that to say. I dont have any fixes or something. The best thing i can tell you is: Just put some CPU intensive settings down (Search for videos explaining each setting) and then you should be get more FPS.

I hope i helped you with that. Greetings from germany! 👍

You're using a PC...game is not set up for a PC.  In fact, game is anti-optimized for PC to give console players an advantage....aim assist, low bloom, low/no recoil, netcode advantages, etc.  

I'm really sorry you're struggling.  I truly am.  However, please know that EA/Dice doesn't seem to care.  They appear to be catering to consoles and appear to not care about any cheats that consoles might be using (ie; Chronus being the most well-known option...there are others out there though...XIM Apex, GIMX, etc. being some of the other popular options).

Anyway, as a MNK player, you're at a disadvantage and must compensate for the extra stuff that controller players receive.  You have to be quicker....more precise...and somewhat luckier than a controller/console player.  Also, you better have a fresh clip and "hope" you get the drop on them....otherwise, you're dead...DED.

I have a laptop with a 4060 and a 13700HX Intel...I get over 120FPS (albeit mostly at "Low" settings), for you to get what you're getting is unacceptable...you should be getting very good FPS's.  

Side note, not much difference between Low and High from what I can tell.

Sadly, the Beta ran a thousand times better than this atrocity that is the current version.  I can only postulate that the devs did something to make the game better for consoles (at the expense of PC's)...just my thought though.... 

Same here. I used to have 40-60 FPS on my old gtx 1070 laptop. but now the game is unplayable with 18- to 25 fps. 

U guys used to have good fps ? my R7 5700X AND RTX 5060 IN LOW SETTINGS Goes down to 20fps most of the time, i cant play without frame generation sadly

Sure. i had 40-60 fps low AA 16x with GTX1070 laptop... Now only 18-25fps. 

Quick Updated Everyone!

I attached my laptop to my MSI monitor and it seems to have restored the FPS back to 80-100. But somehow my lag has now increased.

Thank you all for your support I really appreciate it. Love the community here.

EA/DICE, we Battlefield fans have been incredibly loyal to this franchise, and the community overwhelmingly wants the unique experience that only Battlefield delivers—something that sits between a mil-sim like Hell Let Loose or Arma and an arcade FPS like COD or Fortnite. Battlefield has always been strongest on PC, and while I understand the push for inclusivity through cross‑play with consoles, the current balance feels off.

Right now, console players benefit from extremely strong aim assist, and it’s affecting the experience for PC players. Maybe consider reducing those assist values. Back on my PS2 playing Killswitch (yes, an ancient example), the aim assist was minimal, and players actually had to learn the mechanics. The current level of assistance feels like spoon‑feeding, especially for players who will likely move on as soon as the next COD drops. Many of us on PC care deeply about Battlefield in a way that the majority of console players simply don’t—though of course not every console player fits that description.

The imbalance is ruining the fun. Getting instantly melted across an entire map by someone on console—like on Siege of Cairo during Breakthrough, where you can be dropped in 2–3 shots by a KORD 6P67 from the far end of the main road—is incredibly frustrating. Cross‑play shouldn’t mean PC players get punished for choosing mouse and keyboard.

HONESTLY MISS THE DAYS OF BATTLEFIELD 1! That was peak battlefield! Everything is going downhill since.

I can confirm this; since the last update, the game has been running terribly, and you're not alone. Constant FPS drops, and I didn't make any changes until a couple of days ago to see if updating to DLSS 4.5 would fix it, but it's still the same.

And I've paused Windows updates because they've been awful lately!

I have a 5070TI here.
