Mass Effect Andromeda (Single Player Campaign) Horrible Lag

Playing Mass Effect on my PS4 Pro, but having some major issues that make me not want to play this broken game. Every time I get into a large battle my game lags. Not just a small lag like hello Tim Burton stop motion lag. Anyone else have this issue? Because I am seriously going to just take this game back if there is no fix for it. The game is unplayable this way. The lag bleeds into actual gameplay and cutscenes also. So once I get into a large battle I basically can't play it anymore.

    I have it on PC. It plays well for a while, but then, WHAM. ~10 FPS. No solution yet here. Did try lowering Ambient Occlusion to SAO and reducing Lighting to Low. And it did seem to resolve the lag, but then the lights went CRAZY and the cutscene in the first vault would suddenly have a purple or green overlay or go all black. I think that was the side effect of lowering the lights setting. Pretty Horrible! Missed the entire cutscene.

    I am having this same issue on my desktop. It's horrible, really ruins the experience for you.
    My laptop runs flawlessly... but it's got an i7 vs an i5 among other things I'm sure.
  • Have you guys tried removing your current graphics driver with DDU and then installing another one? For me it had a significant impact on the loading time and a bit on the framerate.
