Unplayable performance / severe FPS drops and stuttering after Update 9.7.0.2 on PC
Hi,
Since Update 9.7.0.2 Destiny 2 has become completely unplayable for me on PC. Before this patch, the game ran fine without any major performance issues.
I am experiencing severe FPS drops and massive stuttering sometimes. It feels like watching a slideshow rather than playing a video game. The issue is especially bad in Crucible, where the choppy gameplay makes it absolutely impossible to compete or aim properly.
Got AMD processor and GPU, 16 GB ram, Win 11. Abit older PC, but Destiny 2 has been working just fine with medium/high settings even in heavy ability spam moments.

The game had bugs last week. But they patched the bugs and now the hitching has gone hawyire
