Issue Description:
I have bought the game today and enjoy it BUT the performance is very very bad on my 3080 TI.
I had to lower all on low to get +/- 90-100 FPS and still get enorm frame drops in-game on waves until 60 FPS.
Its really hard to enjoy the game that way.
As said I turned all down to minimum on 1440p monitor.
I hope this gets fixed soon.
For sure the other PC specs are more as enough.
PS. Just changed from Thread 22 to 12 for my CPU-Cores doesnt change anything.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, set all to low and changed Threads from 22 to 12 according to my CPU Cores, dosnt change anything and same issue.
This game is very hard to run but I can do 1080p/140 fps/custom high settings so you should be able to run it well with a good pc. You need to post all your specs and the files that the devs asked for.
put a swap file of 16 GB or more, but be sure to have a fixed size, initial - final. on an SSD.
Update the drivers and I can send you Cfg / I play at high in Full HD, I have 140-100 fps with it
i5 11400f
16gb ram
rtx 3070
But Cfg is designed for Full HD and you may need to raise the screen resolution
In the settings of the launcher, set your streams. I have 12 processor threads, and there is a setting in the game of 9 threads, you set how much your processor needs
you’re wrong, yes the game had problems, but I don’t have problems anymore after the patches. It used to be 70-130 fps on high, after setting up the config, now it’s 100-150 fps. FPS doesn’t drop with hordes.
Not sure if you run in with RT on, I am on a 3080TI and pretty old CPU and I run it around 100FPS on High.
You may want to to look into specific settings to get msot gains (like ambient occlusion). Here is DF analysis with recommended settings, may be useful:
I am crashing constantly ive got a 3080ti and a Ryzen 93900X, All low settings, no RT, capped to 60 fps. Its got worse with the hotfix that just dropped but before it was still pretty bad just come from a mission it crashed 4 times not even half way through and ive just given up with it, and this game for awhile.
here screenshots are cut down in quality. I have a high FPS, I’m not lying, maybe because I’m just Russian? ahah, I’m kidding. But dude, believe me, I have 120-150 in the game, stable at high. Only the lighting is sometimes low and the draw distance. Full HD
your pc is magically running the game better than pc’s with better specs then, good for you
it runs like sh*t for pretty much everyone, garbage optimization
If your all running Windows 11 your going to have lower frames. Microsoft said themselves there is a loss in gaming performance on Windows 11 over 10. I am so glad I decided to stick with Windows 10. Windows 11 is the new Vista for gamers.
