Random freezes throughout the match


(Sgt) #1

I am having issues with random freezes that last 2-3 seconds in every match I play. This usually happens 2-3 times during a match and while I’m used to it by now it’s quite annoying when I’m in the middle of a firefight! :pensive:

Is this happening to others, or do I need to look into my own software?

It’s exactly the same for me.
I’m thinking it might be because of NGS, because this didn’t happen to me, before NGS was patched in.

On top of these freezes, my game performance is probably worse than ever, with FPS fluctuating between 20-144, or so.

I’m building a new PC, with killer specs, if it can’t handle DB, I’m out for good.

I’m getting 1-2s freezes every 1-2 matches. Started happening a few weeks ago, so maybe because of NGS.

My PC is not the problem, it handles Witcher 3 on Ultra.

Oh my god, I thought it was just me and my potato.

same here… I thought someone was stealing my internets.

It’s like WTF, I’m suddenly dea d?

None here unless you’re talking about the “connection interrupted” problem.

Honestly sounds like a VRAM issue.

Ok so it’s not just me then :). My computer is a new computer that I’ve built and it handeled DB on max prior to the new patch, after the patch fps started dropping (especially after alt-tabbing while waiting for match). Those freezes are the worst though :P.

I’m using the GF GTX Titan X (12GB)-card, so I honestly doubt that… If you ment that I might have too little VRAM?

This didn’t happen once prior to the patch, so I find it strange though :slight_smile:


(Ghosthree3) #9

Titan X wouldn’t have a VRAM issue, I was thinking more of extremely low VRAM that causes the game to lock up as it loads in new assets on the fly.

And holy shit that card has 12GB? Wtf. No game will need that for 10 years.

@Sgt Yep! I’ve heard of serveral users using Titan X cards and having strange occasional frame-skipping or stuttering problems (for pretty much no reason). I also get this issue from time-to-time - although I am not using a Titan X - and it seems to have begun more consistently since the last update. My PC certainly is no potato either, so it’s a little confusing why it happens…

Yeah figured I’d go all-out while I was at it :). I use the computer for more than just gaming though :slight_smile:

Edit: Also 4K-gaming is quite nice pared with the Acer 27" LED Predator G-Sync XB270HU :slight_smile:


(Sgt) #12

Ok, so this is getting looked into, or do you reckon I’ll report this issue?


(MarsRover) #13

I have a 980Ti with 6GB VRAM. This freeze is way longer than typical “not enough VRAM” freezes. And I can’t see why this would be a Nvidia 900 series problem.


(Faraleth) #14

There’s no harm in reporting the issue again. My guess is that it’s being looked into due to the numerous similar reports I’ve hears - although I can’t say for certain. The devs are optimising the game constantly over time and there will never be one patch that will simply “fix” all optimisation issues. This may just be something that improves over time - I guess we’ll have to wait and see. :s

Your best bet is to post here http://forums.dirtybomb.nexon.net/categories/bug-reporting and report is, as I know a lot of the QA team from Nexon - such as @"[NxA] Noxie" - often look over the bug report forum for issues. Hope this helps! :slight_smile:

I am getting freezes that don’t end and I can’t alt tab out of them so I have to restart my PC

Thanks :). It’s not gamebreaking for me, just annoying as it usually happens just as I am in the middle of a “dance” vs an enemy :D.


(Dirmagnos) #17

Same problem, surfaced after new AC implementation, along with server sync/lag getting a lot worse, where you have literally put half the clip into Proxy to kill her, even tho you constantly hear headshot jingle bells.


(ThatRandomGuy) #18

I started to get AUDIO lag that leads to FPS lag…

FML playing on 20-30fps on 980m sli… This shit happens for a few mins… randomly !

Thank you @Faraleth, please feel free to report issues in the bug section of the forums :).
