First of all, my computer specs are ; i5 6500, Gtx 1060 6gb, 16 gb 2133 mhz ram and the game is installed on a ssd.
My problem is after the latest UI update, I experience heavy fps drops and therefore stutters. Before the update I've had times that my fps dipped but they were so occasional, now it's every single game and my game has came to a state that it's literally unplayable. I have tried lowering the graphical settings but they don't seem to help that much, what am I supposed to do ?
Sorry for bad english.
@SCARFAC3E the first issue is that your CPU is below the minimum required to Play BF1, and BF1 is a processor intensive game. You can see how your CPU rates against the minimum required CPU here: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i5-6600K-vs-Intel-Core-i5-6500 You also might want to drop your graphics settings, your GPU may be able to handle it but your CPU being just below the minimum probably can't keep up with higher graphics settings.
That being said, what OS are you running? If on Win10 are you using DX11 or12, and did you install the creator's update? Recently I limited my FPS to 61 in my user.cfg and it really evened out the CPU spikes and sporadic FPS drops so that may benefit your game performance. My rig is the same as yours except that my processor is an i7 3770.
But if that's the case, how is that my cpu handled the game very good at even ultra settings and had no issues until that June update ? Or so other peoples cpus ? As I said I tried lowering the graphics, it doesn't seem to help much. Can you write down the cpu intensive graphics settings if you know so I can set them to very low.
I am using the Windows 10 64-bit Pro version and I haven't installed the creators update. My game is running at DX11 (DX12 has way worse stuttering)
I will try what you did on the cfg file but I don't think it will work since I play with vsync on (if I turn off vsync the screen tearing becomes worse than anything, since I have a 60hz display)
I think EA just effed up something about the game optimization (willingly or not I don't know.)

Hello @SCARFAC3E
I am really sorry for those issues with Battlefield 1. Have you been able to solve this, thanks to other players input? Let us know, how you are doing. If the problems persists, can you try to load your system, using Clean Boot, and launch the game afterwards? Keep us posted.
Cheers,
Archi

I haven't been able to solve the issue no matter what I've done. Last game (2 days ago at Empire's Edge) my fps dropped literally to 15 on the top of the castle without any effects and there I stopped playing the game. I tried refunding the game & got refused since I played too much (around 150 hours) until the June update.

I think EA just effed up something about the game optimization (willingly or not I don't know.)Since you're in Win10 have you tried turning off the Xbox DVR functionality, turning off origin in game (both in the origin global application settings and under BF1's game settings under show game details in origin?), and I also recommend uninstalling GeForce experience and install only the drivers for your card since Shadow Play has been causing performance issues with some people's rigs as well, and I got a noticeable increase in stability at BF1 after launch by uninstalling GeForce Experience.
Regarding settings, the entire game is CPU intensive, not just a specific settings. The problem with hardware that isn't at the minimum recommended spec is that it may work for a long time and then a game, driver, or even an OS update hits and you have problems. The minimum specs are the lowest performance spec that DICE says BF1 will reliably run, anything outside of those specs runs by luck and good fortune of the gaming gods.

As for those minimal specs, these are nonsensical to begin with as according DICE i6 6600k is comparable to the AMD FX-6350. Anyone who is not completely technically ignorant knows this is an absolute bullcrap and said amd cpu is considerably weaker to even i5-6400 (even in games that love threads and works well with amd cpus like for example Crysis 3) , not mention the 6500. So operate with these obviously randomly choiced minimal requirements is pointless to begin with. Game worked fine on release on said hw, so I dont see any excuse to accept performance-crippling patches, but hey same happened with BF4 so who is really suprised.
That said it is a good advice to get rid those stupid xbox and gaming related * microsoft added into Windows and uninstalling geforce experience is generally good idea unless you really love Shadowplay.
After disabling most of these things (including some register tweaks) game runs solid and im running i5-6500, though it was a bit better at launch.

hi i am also having the same issues didn't play for a while come back and find i am only getting between 30/40 fps rang EA for them to say its my system when i know it isn't has same has you i have run the game in ultra before. then i call again for them to say its there end and just to bare with.

I have BF V on prepaid reserve. Reports of server lag and rubber banding have been widespread over the last 2-3 weeks. If this continues, I don't think I'm going to be interested in continuing my BF series.

For screen tearing u have to go BF1.exe >Properties>Compatible> and tick Disable fullscreen optimizations

I'm same, used to comfortably play this game at 70 fps with most things on ultra (oc'd 3570k, 1060). I've come back after a while away from the game and I'm now getting between 30-40 fps.
