[BNG] PC FPS Issues Megathread - UPDATE June 22

Hey, community. [url=https://twitter.com/BungieHelp/status/1329587435257303040]We're currently investigating FPS issues on PC[/url]. [quote][b]UPDATES [/b] [quote][b]June 22, 2021[/b] Last night, AMD released [url=https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-21-6-1]Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.6.1[/url] that fixes some Radeon Graphics products that were experiencing lower than expected performance in Destiny 2. AMD users may want to change their [i]Settings > Preferred Software Version[/i] to [i]Recommended + Optional[/i] for future updates.[/quote] [quote][b]June 3, 2021[/b] In our [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/50397]TWaB blog post[/url], we acknowledged that we made some major engine changes with the launch of Beyond Light - while working from home. Due to the pandemic, we haven't had access to our PC compatibility lab to do in-depth testing. We've been making improvements with each release even though they aren't called out in patch notes, and we're working with our partners to help address these issues and are optimistic about the future. [/quote] [quote][b]January 29, 2021[/b] We have looked over the data post 3.0.2 launch: -- High-end users saw big improvements: we're about halfway back to pre-Beyond Light perf. -- Mid-range systems didn't see much improvement. -- Low-end and laptops didn't see much improvement. We're continuing to investigate and look for solutions toward better performance. [/quote] [quote][b]January 19, 2021[/b] We released[url=https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/50013] Update 3.0.2[/url] that optimized Lighting on PC GPUs to help increase performance. -- Many folks have mentioned [b]turning off the Shader Cache in the NVIDIA Control Panel[/b]. Does this help with performance?[/quote] [quote][b]December 14, 2020[/b] We believe we found a few issues related to light probes that have led to GPU performance degradation. We're still investigating and hope to have a resolution in January.[/quote][/quote] Please use this thread to help us track down what is causing the issue by: [quote][b]1[/b].

  • Hey there, I investigated a bit the stuttering issues on PC with 2 different nvidia cards, a 1660 GTX and a 1050 GTX. What I am calling stuttering issues here are brief moments (~1s avg) where the game stutters dropping FPS then catching up, leading to a brief acceleration right after the stutter. Everything was tested with recent nvidia drivers and on several play sessions to ensure I had reliable and reproducible conclusions. TL;DR: - The stuttering seems split into 2 causes, one of which can be eliminated when disabling the shader cache in NVIDIA settings. - The stuttering is more visible on the 1660 GTX which is also a faster machine than the one with the 1050GTX. But the 1050 GTX is not exempt of stuttering. - The stuttering causes I noticed are: A. Caused when either looking or entering a new light source zone. (This one can be avoided when disabling the shader cache) B. When passing through fixed locations in the game. (Might be zone loading, and I'll assume this for now) - The "story scenes" e.g. when the guardians is landing in the presage mission have fixed 30 FPS on PC, which I believe explains why the stuttering may be even worse there if the scene involves different light sources, like Shadowkeep's "We are your salvation" scene. More info: The presage mission is excellent to play test the issues I've encountered (and also in term of gaming experience, but that's another subject). - When not disabling the shader cache on the GTX 1660, on the landing zone, simply moving to the main big door and away from it will trigger stuttering issues at will. Simply run to the edge of it and then to the door and you'll have consistent stuttering issues near the middle of the platform. - The shader cache being disabled or not, and on both machines but most reliably on the one with the GTX 1660, jumping on the first platform from the landing zone on the left, moving around the corner, and entering inside the ship will reliably trigger stuttering issues. I hope this helps, stay safe.
