Issue Description (Required):
Since the April update I have been experiencing huge and consistent performance issues.
Currently I run the game at 30 to 50 FPS no matter which settings I set in the options.
During mission levels I experience performance degradation to a point where the game isn’t playable and seems like the game froze or its going to crash.
My device specifications are:
Windows 10 OS
Processor AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 3.40 GHz
RAM 64.0 GB
Storage SSD MP600 M.2 NVMe
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 (24 GB)
My game settings are:
Resolution (same FPS no matter what so I’ll put the ones I tried) @ Fullscreen
2560x1440 (Native)
1920x1080
1024x768 (still same FPS as on larger resolutions without changing any other setting besides resolution)

My GPU drivers are up to date, the game was reinstalled at least 4 times and the files were verified at least two times when the problem continued after a new installation.
Thank you for your assistance, I would really like to play the game again. Really do miss it after so long XD
