FPS drops on gtx 970. Patch?
My cfg: MSI GTX 970 Gaming Intel Core i7-4790 8gb RAM Latest nvidia driver 388.13 Will be a patch with optimization?
Forum Discussion
So 387 was a bust as well, no difference. Best performance by far with 388.13. Now I will test using in-game settings and editing profile if there is anything that would resolve the stuttering. I am running the game on Ultra at 1080p with absolutely everything maxed and doing the DB11 mission (intro second mission I think). Will update this thread on the go if I manage to pull something off.
I am running it on i5-3570k, stock speed; GTX 1070, 16GB DDR RAM (dont remember the speed), Windows 10 64bit
When it is not stuttering, the game is running at a solid 80fps, so my specs are totally fine for Ultra.
Yea it runs very well here too on Ultra, except when it stutters. Got i7-5280k and 1080 myself so to me it seems like the problem is game related and not on my end. Seen some mentions about the devs testing stuff that will improve overall performance but not sure if that was for PC or console, would be nice if a person from EA/this site could give a little wink about the issue being adressed or not :/
@LurkerYunOk so I think I found the main culprit for the very heavy stuttering. It is Ambient Occlusion... of all the things. It does something with soft shadows and the HBAO, AOA and AOA Full completely destroy my playing experience. SSAO is pretty much perfect, I get microsecond stutters from time to time, but those look more like lag that actual stutter. I would not suggest using OFF, there is not much difference in terms of performance and it completely removes soft shadows, making many things look... strange.
Anti-Aliasing change between FXAA and TAA did some minor changes as well, but it looked not to affect stuttering, simply FPS and therefore lag in places where there was more to render.
There is no difference in terms of performance between All Settings at LOW and All Settings at HIGH. And almost no difference in terms of quality HIGH compared to ULTRA, but there is a slight performance drop.
So what I would suggest to try is:
Everything HIGH
Fullscreen ON
Vertical Sync OFF
Motion Blur OFF
Ambient Occlusion SSAO
Anti-Aliasing TAA
Driver 388.13.
See if that makes the game playable for you.
Please note though that my test only involved the first minute of the DB11 mission until the end of first speedtrap/zone.Tried your suggestions now @Dryminator and still stutters that affects the gameplay, think im just gonna have to put this game on the shelf for now untill they release a patch/hotfix for this.
Quite annoying tho that no official representative can give us a little info about if this issue are being adressed or not...
stutter in this game is very bad, and gpu usage drop randomly especially in the city.

@RobsonikJGG good you found a fix that worked for you 🙂 Unfortunately for myself, I already had the Fall Creators Update before trying this game and still have massive stutters :/
Did you guys tried to check your CPU and GPU temperatures while playing?
I noted this game heat my CPU waaaaay more than any other game I ever played, even more that some OC torture tests, which I think is an issue btw.
Maybe some of you guys are having heat problems and the CPU/GPU is throttling.
After few hours gaming everything ok ;-)
There is something wrong with the game. It stutters every 3-4 sec. Even with 80-90fps. With vsync on, 60fps it's nearly unplayable.
The worst thing about it is, that even after I close the game, my Firefox and all videos stutter too. I have to reboot my PC to get rid of it.
Strange sh*t. Never seen something like this. Playing on WIndows 7 Ultimate.
