Framedrop everytime i'm being shot.

Every time i'm getting shot at and it hits me i get a ridiculous framedrop. so much that it gets me in a disadvantage. This recently started happening AFTER the newest patch with the onehit fixes and stuff. i normal run battlefield 4 with vsync'ed 75 fps on ultra without any lag issues (except unusually much explosions happen, which is rare), but since the newest patch it continuously happens when being shot. This kills my K/D and gets me in a disadvantage. Please fix this because this is ruining everything on BF4 for me. i can't play a single good game anymore.

    Try a clean install of the latest non-beta video drivers. Removing all components of the previous driver set is important.

    Vsync can introduce a little lag and stutter, try turning it off and see if there is a noticeable difference.

    I did what you said. uninstalled all my video drivers (had the nvidia beta drivers installed) and clean installed the newest official driver. I noticed a bit performance gain and i could finally play decent rounds again. i couldn't test it very long (2 rounds of tdm) but i think this helped me out. tough my last death had again a little bit framedrop before my death, but it was hectic anyways. Thanks for the advice and great job on the solution. If this occurs again i'll contact again. There were also situations that the revive screen would stick on my screen after accepting it, and some hit registrations weren't accurate, but as i look at DICE now they are trying to fix it . Thanks again for the advice 🙂.
