@jimmarshall 

Thank you for playing the game and coming to chat to us about it!

@rikemomo 

Thanks for uploading the video. But jeez, that's some really bad stuttering you have there. I'm sorry to see that, and I understand it's not fun playing the game like that. 

Since you experienced similar stuttering in another title (Steep), I do have a suspicion it might be caused by something on your system. Definitely not by the specs, but I'm thinking more about settings, such as:

  • Is your system overclocked? If so, have you tried lowering the OC?
  • Is your system perhaps overheating?
  • Have you tried closing all background programs? I've seen similar stuttering happen due certain applications such as motherboard or overclocking software

I already read in the other thread that you're on an SSD. So that can't be it either. Still, could you upload a dxdiag so I have some additional info about your system?

@Straatford87 I'm also still experiencing stuttering. Not as bad as rikemomo, but the game first runs absolutely smooth for a while, then just stops for a few seconds and then goes on. I had a similar issue with Rise of the Tomb Raider when playing in DirectX12 mode. Apart from that my framerate is excellent and everything works fine, also in other games.
I tried a lot of things to counter the issues, also increasing process priority for the game and of course close everything in the background not needed, which means basically everything but Windows processes...
The Unreal 4 engine is pretty CPU hungry, but stutters like that really shouldn't happen when everything else runs fine.
I also created a bug report about that actually.
