As ever, the update has been warmly received by players who are desperate for new content, however, it hasn’t gone swimmingly.

It doesn’t matter if you have a top-of-the-line gaming PC, the FPS issues are seemingly hitting everybody as soon as the game starts. You’ll see your frames drop down to the low teens, and maybe into the single digits if you’re unlucky.

“I have to pause/press ESC at the start of every match now to get fps above 60,” said one player. “I’m getting massive stuttering but no fps drop. And yeah, the game is in a terrible state after this update,” added another.

Some theorized that it’s because of the Satellite cutscene that now plays at the start of games, but others have been experiencing the issues inside of the pre-game warm-up lobby.

Other players have been alt-tabbing out of the game for a few seconds and then opening it back up to fix things. Of course, these both waste time that would be better used planning your drop, but here are a few fixes that have worked for others.

Now, these are all temporary changes that will address things for a game or two, but the problems will more than likely persist.

It remains to be seen ifRavenwill roll out an update to address things or if they’ll persist for a little while longer.
