Hey there,

So I've been having this problem for some time now, tried almost everything I could find people suggested about this game and performance issues, nothing worked so far. The problem is simply put, the GPU usage drops to 0% and I'm getting 1 FPS whenever I move my character. The game works fine when I stand still and look around with my mouse, but whenever I move, the game basically stops working. When character stops moving, game starts to work again.

My Specs: Ryzen 5 3600x, Asus TUF 3080 OC, 16 GB 3400 Mhz memory (2x8), Samsung EVO SSD, Seagate HDD.

I reinstalled the game multiple times, both on SSD and HDD.

Game used to work perfectly until couple of months ago. Back then I had RTX 2070s when the problem first started. When I changed to RTX3080 it still continues.

Anyone had similar issues or found a solution?

Temps are around 40c both CPU and GPU (normally, GPU gets around 60 while on full load).

All the latest drivers installed, I double checked again.

I captured a video with the problem in question, I believe I may have not do good jo with explaining, so here it is.


First of, please excuse the audio. It captured the TV.

As can be seen in the video, when I try to scroll trough the setting menu with the wheel, it stutters. But when I do it with clicking on the side bar, it doesn't. Does that even make sense?

It's pretty frustrating to be honest. I really don't care much about the game (aside from playing with a friend, who loves the game for some reason). But at this point it became kind of an obsession.

I would really appreciate if anyone can help me with this very strange issue.
