Pc perfomance it is trash

[ornate meteor]

when I tried the game on PC when it came out, sometimes there were massive FPS drops, going from 144 FPS to 10-5 fps during cutscenes, penalties, free kicks, etc. I thought they would fix it, but today, 3 November, the massive FPS drops on PC are still happening and haven't been fixed. Please fix them, sometimes it's unplayable

Same here
Additionally, the game crashes every few matches, I tried changing different settings, repairing files and changing even of the DirectX, but nothing worked

same here, after 70% of the cutsencses i have a huge fps drops
i found a temporery fix but its still bad, you can change from fullscreen to windowed when it happens and it sometimes help

[toxic lodge]

Thanks, will try

[weary raptor]

i found a better fix

go to nvdia control panel

click on "Manage 3D settings"

go to "Program Settings"

select fc26

search "Vertical sync" and change it to "on"

and then go to the ingame settings, change the display mode to borderless, turn on vsync and change "Cutscene Performence" to "full frame rate"

i've played like this for like 10 games in rivals and my game runs smooth

Well written

The game could ALWAYS ALWAYS use optimisation. Especially for PC. Something that makes me very annoyed - is my PC Graphic settings keep resetting to High. If it's not optimised at the very minimum the game should let you keep your custom settings to boost performance.

[thorny lintel]

Thanks

[thorny lintel]

Do you have auto optimisation on in Nvidia?

If yes, that can do that as well

[cold niche]

Let me see, I watched and followed a video that optimised the settings

[thorny lintel]

All my observations and research based on my experience and hearing other people issue, i just want people to comment or like in that post so that it gets highlighted to the top of the forum, Else this issue is getting ignored

[cold niche]

Would that be under Managed 3D settings in the control pannel

[thorny lintel]

It should be in nvidia app

Automatically optimise games and apps or something like that

Also sometimes custom settings get reset in FC, it's better to keep them with fc presets:low,medium,high etc

[cold niche]

Oh i've done settings in the control pannel specifically for fc26

yeah auto optimise games is off

[thorny lintel]

Oh okay

Maybe fc bug, as custom settings reset auto sometimes

[drifting violet]

Did you guys manage to use full Rate cutscene and have smooth corners? I need to reduce crowd to medium but the setting get lost everytime Any suggestion is welcome

[drifting violet]

Yes custom settings always reset. It's a bug

[drifting violet]

Do you have smooth corners in this config?

[weary raptor]

I got smooth corners after the thing I changed in nvdia app
