Hello!

Can u fix that car light fps drops about 30 fps when lights is on?

In night stages in city where is street lights there fps drops from 100 to 40 fps.

When will u fix this? It one year now and problem is there. I preordered game and bought day one new DLC. And after 14 days u just drop game price for 14$ and cant fix the game breaking performance.

    It's amazing how badly this game is optimized. In Assetto Corsa Competizione on the same UE4 engine in ultra on superwide Samsung g9 I have 150-169 fps.

    In EA Sports WRC, depending on the rally, max 90 fps.

    At night it can drop to 50-60 fps and stutter.

  • I have the same problem but at dusk. Night stages are kinda fine for me (60-70 fps). 

    I got about 30-40 fps on ultra settings instead of 90-100 fps on day stages.

    Running with Ryzen 7 5800X, 4070ti, 3440x1440 resolution

  • Also familiar with the said issue. Am forced to also avoid using the headlights and instead bumping up the brightness on night stages to combat low FPS. Literally am able to get 200 FPS out of ACC on lobbies with 40 people yet on this game the performance is terrible.
