Many disappointed PC players turned to the developers seeking help for what seems to be a frame drop issue, even in PCs that have amazing specifications.
While Avalanche has provided a recommended setting, many players are experiencing issues. Here is how you can try to solve them:
- Try disabling ray-tracing
- If that doesn’t work then turn on DLSS
- DLSS should be adjusted to Ultra Performance mode
- Downgrade graphic settings to lower specifications
- Graphics card drivers need to be updated
