Massive FPS Drops.. game's stuttering, nothing works

I have AMD, still stutters. But read that Steam decks, Macs are experiencing this too.

But yeah. These few days got so much worse, insane.

Not that this came as a shock:

From the 1st post-patch feedback on US forum, don’t hold your breath : nothing changed.

Same fudge, with some more issues and silly bugs.

EU came back earlier. Still stutters, only slightly better sometimes, but absolutely not enough to be playable. Sub expires soon, so that’s it for me till it gets fixed. :frowning:

Reopened my ticket and asked for an update. They said that they are still working on a fix.

All you people who are writing here on the forum need to make a ticket to blizzard, it does not help whining here, but if enough people make tickets maybe they get their asses out of the wagon.

So essentially hide the problem from the public and also from fellow members, who have this.

You can do both.

“Whining” here also creates public pressure. Much more noticeable and burning than hiding the problem. Besides tickets, especially from EU, aren’t taken that seriously.

And an Error 132 with access violation bs began to appear here after today’s update, though before it was -JUST- laggy and stuttering. And yesterday everything worked just perfect!
Memory test shows no issues with memory.

Noticed severe fps drops in various areas of the game. Before the patch everything was fine. I think by fixing some kind of alpha test issue in Temple of the Jade Serpant they’ve introduced another bug. I’ve dropped my particles and water effects to low. Seems fine now. Adjust your settings you might have some luck.

Noticed that it craches only when i use ‘Shred’ from Stealth. Rake doesnt cause such trouble!

Massive FPS drops in combat here too. Especially when entering combat.

Maybe it’s just because more players are around for the new patch today but the stuttering seems worse than usual now.

Yes my initial impression is confirmed, just did a dungeon and stuttering is worse than ever now, just since the patch today.

Along with the big black box appearing under some spell effects in this new patch you have to wonder if they’re just trolling us now…

I am sorry for that grumpy post, just so tired of this. I just think that if just 50% of all people who have the stuttering reported it this would be solved much faster.

It’s all good no worries, I might have been a bit snappy too. I’m sorry.

I just don’t think tickets will solve anything, at least from this point now. They know it affects all to different degrees, so now it’s just creating more work to customer service, repeating the same “we are working on it”. It doesn’t sped up the process for the developers.

But keeping it in a public achieves two things: they might prioritise this issue over others, putting more people on it, because it’s in the public eye now, can’t hide it or sweep under the rug. The other is to help out our fellow folks, desperately trying to solve this. Knowing that you can’t do anything is kind of reassuring at least.

Comradery is also kind of nice, knowing you are not alone with the helplessness.

Same. I was at 2320 rating in solo shuffle when i logged off before the patch.

Logged in excited to queue, got my 4 set even. Then i enter first game, have actually 5 fps the entire game and lose 6 rounds going to 2250. Already tilted i disable some addons, close all other programs and try again. Still LITERALLY 5 fps slideshow the whole arena lose 1-5, now im 2190. At this point im already so mentally tilted that i queue again and again. Ended up going to 1850 rating from 2320 because of this crazy performance drop.

Tuesday i was playing arena with 120ish FPS and 40-59ms world and home.
Now its 5fps slideshow with 2 second spell delay.

I remember something similar happening in Destiny 2 once, and the performance problems were just there for some players for a year or so.

Good to know i pay so much money and invest so much time in this game, just to get the last 2 months of personal goal prep destroyed by a bugged game.

my framerate has been very smooth for all of DF (except valdrakken for obvious reasons) until today. tuesday’s patch didn’t have this effect, but battlegrounds are almost unplayable with the random stutters and framedrops during combat. not just happening to me, but happens to another person i know after today with a 5800x3d and 6950xt and next to no addons. this should be investigated immediately

Could we get an update about stutters please? There was no info about it since Dec. 22.
