Some Containers cause FPS to drop from 60 down to 4

NoticeMeArkay · January 25

Hi,

Since the release of Gold Road I've stumbled upon several different containers such as closets, chests, urns and alike spread across different DLC and non-DLC zones that cause my FPS to drop down to immensely just by looking at their containments. Sometimes even just hovering my crosshair over them from a distance is enough.

Not all containers, but a few and it's always the same ones.

Is anybody else having the same issue by chance?

That’s probably the Sustainability thing kicking in and dropping your frame rate to 30 fps. You are in the UI at that point.

EDIT: I also note that many times I am not in the UI the frame rate drops for no reason. I wonder if the constant cycling up and down is detrimental to the game.

It doesn't drop to 30, it drops to 4. And only when aiming my crosshair at very specific containers and nothing else. How would the sustainability feature cause that?

Well I don’t have any way to know what my frame rate is on PS, but it looks much worse than 30 FPS. There is also horrible stuttering when leaving the UI screen for several seconds. I have no idea how it works but it completely ruins the gameplay experience now.
