Season 3 broke 1% lows on CPU bottlenecked systems.

no problem mate, it helped on the other maps 100% and practically no stutters now

golmud is still really low fps by the areas with a lot of buildings, especially the 2 warehouses at the bottom though. rush game mode is buttery smooth now too.

That is good info about the user.cfg file. Thanks for posting. EA_Barry.

Update: created a user.cfg file and did Thread.MaxProcessorCount 16 (for 8 cores 16 threads)

Tried 16, 8 and 0 for 2 hours, and TMPC 16 was for sure the best. I turned HAGS off and got way better 1% lows.

EDIT: EA_Barry​ FYI the other maps feel buttery smooth again. golmud is a fair bit better but my CPU isnt top of the line and that map is ridiculously huge and a bit un-optimised down the centre cap points so be interesting to see what others say who have better chips than me.

Cheers!

Nah its alright man! 3700x is doing me fine for now, 100 FPS frame cap, cpu settings fairly low but high graphics and 70-80 FPS dips on average, waiting for the re release of the 5800x3D to be fair, then i'll finally be GPU bottlenecked in battlefield which is big baller moves for me lol.

Not sure about windows personally, but try this - its helped me so far: 

Create a txt document, label it user.cfg and delete TXT from the end (you might even have one already)

Then enter 'Thread.MaxProcessorCount 16' if youre 8 core 16 thread

The game seems to behave better using all available threads after the recent update. every other map is now back to being buttery except golmud, which sounds about right.

Also try turning HAGS off if you’re CPU limited or getting inconsistent frametimes/stutters — some people are getting smoother performance with it disabled. Genuinely so much better for me, tested 16, 8, and 0, but 16 and HAGS off was best. I also have ReBar disabled in Nvidia profile inspector for BF6 only. 

This is the folder location, paste it in here once you make it just delete it if it doesnt work for you:

C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battlefield 6\

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Battlefield 6

Let me know! The main thing that helped was the user.cfg.

Thanks Barry!

I’ve done a DDU and nothing changes. always been on the most stable driver according to Google/reddit as I didn’t need DLSS4.5 for my rig being older. 

On YouTube comments here one guy had a 9950x3d and said he had a similar issue. It was on a video with latest s3 graphics guide

To be fair man i’m on windows 11 and had been before the update and i had smooth performance

I am surprised the game is even playable with a 3700x and 3060 @1440 TBH

I had a 5800x and recently got a 7800x3d paired with my 9070xt which significantly changed my system performance.

I like you found Cairo, one of my favorite maps, to strain my system the most.  I am running at 1440 and had my graphics set to custom that had low settings on CPU heavy tasks. 

I would always show the CPU and GPU fps and found that when my CPU fps were getting in the 100s and 110s my game would looks laggy.  I dont know what my 1% lows were but Im guessing they were less than half the average which was causing the game to look and feel like 50fps. 

With my 7800x3d I run the game at ultra @1440 and its buttery smooth.  I am on Win 10. I have a Win 11 build as well and that seems to preform significantly worse that Win 10 for some reason.  The Win 11 is always choppy and its a system that has literally just Win 11, the EA app and BF6. Nothing else. 

I appreciate the effort to help. But unfortunatly that did zero diference for me, and will most likely not be any different to other people. I did a fresh Windows 11 install, debloated to the bone to limit any performance hit from any possible application and only with the necessery to play the game, and it did absolutly nothing.

The game still freezes when you finish editing loadouts while in game or when you respawn sometimes, no matter the map or mode. There is constant stuttering in every single map. The ONLY thing the made me notice a improvement was seting Textures to Low. The stuttering definitely was reduce, but is still present.

My system specs are modest: R7 5800G - RX 9070 (Adrenalin 26.5.2) - 32GB 3200mhz - 1tb NVME only for games. I'll post my Dxdiag later.

P.S.: before the S3 update, I definitely didn't have issues with performance like it's happening now.

Thanks for the Dxdiag. Some troubleshooting: 

Full video driver reinstall...

1. Download DDU:

• • DDU Download

1. Boot into Safe Mode
2. Run DDU
3. Select:

• • GPU
  • NVIDIA or AMD

1. Choose:

• • “Clean and restart”

Then install:

• NVIDIA Studio Driver (more stable than Game Ready)
  OR
• An older stable driver version
• Avoid beta drivers.

Please let us know if these steps help you at all, thanks. EA_Barry.

Same issue here - i5 12600k + RX 7800XT - had 120-160 fps before and now im at 80-110. Golmud is the greats BS in terms of performance. max 80fps. I hope EA/Dice will do something about it. Unacceptable for a 7 month old game.
