Explanation
Severe and Consistent FPS Drop Bug in Battle Royale and Other Modes
I am consistently experiencing a critical performance issue where FPS drops from 280+ to as low as 10–30 FPS, primarily in Battle Royale (affecting ~90% of matches) and intermittently in other game modes (~20% of the time). This issue significantly impacts playability and has rendered the game nearly unplayable for myself and several others.
Despite this being a widespread and ongoing issue, there has been no acknowledgment or communication from the development team or community managers. No official posts, patch notes, or updates have addressed this since the 1.2 release, and there have been no relevant responses on Steam. I personally know at least 10 players who have stopped playing due to this problem, and I believe it is contributing to a substantial loss in player retention.
System Specifications: CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (Stock) Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix X570-E Gaming (BIOS v5031, latest chipset drivers) Memory: 64GB G.Skill Trident Z DDR4-3600 CL16 (XMP @1800MHz) Storage: x4 Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SSDs in RAID 0 (Game Drive) x2 Samsung 990 Pro 1TB NVMe SSDs in RAID 0 (System Drive) GPU: ASUS TUF Gaming OC RTX 4080 SUPER (Driver v576.88, stock clocks)
Troubleshooting Steps Taken:
- Full game reinstall, including deletion of all config and program data folders
- Updated all system and GPU drivers
- Adjusted all in-game and NVIDIA Control Panel settings
- Followed multiple community and Steam forum recommendations
Unfortunately, none of these actions have resolved the issue. Acknowledgment and prompt investigation from the development team would be appreciated, as this bug is clearly affecting a significant portion of the player base.

This project restricts device information visibility.This happens to me but less often and only after I've been playing a while. Rebooting solves it temporarily but it comes back eventually. My framerate will drop to 15 FPS and sometimes is followed by a crash to desktop.
