Help Me Fix My Final Problem With Ogryn Grenade Explosions

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Performance Feedback
1

Issue Description (Required):

When an Ogryn character uses his blitz “Bombs Away,” each bomblet explosion causes fps stall. Since it can release 9 bomblets with its supplementary perk, this can cause huge issues during gameplay. Each bomblet explosion causes the game to “pause,” if I may say. This doesn’t happen with any other blitz or explosive in the game. This is specific to the “Bombs Away” blitz for Ogryn.

Attempted Solutions (Optional):

In my goal to fix Darktide’s performance problems, I tried everything including switching OS. After switching to Linux, managed to eliminate the regular frame-pacing issues, which was a relief. Managed to fix meshes not loading properly by editing the config file and disabling mesh_streamer. This is the only problem remaining so I can finally enjoy the game without performance issues. I have tried lowering all settings to lowest and there isn’t much that I can try without some sort of config editing I think. Please, if there is any trick to resolve or at least band-aid this issue let me know.

I think the game does a lot of calculations for each bomblet and hence the hiccups. I hope the issue isn’t without a solution.

I had this problem too, replacing the CPU with an AMD Ryzen 7 5700X helped

Tbh, this happens on all computers. The grenades create a fps drop that you can definitively see if you display a fps counter.

The drop is massive..

Problem is more something that Fatshark need to look it.

By this time, I would advice to… Change your blitz
