Major FPS drops on Laptop GPUs
- The official System requirements state that laptop GPUs may work but are not officially supported. The Game has major FPS drops on latest notebook GPUs with Hybrid/Graphics Advanced Optimus Mode/Mux Switch, issue is believed to be the game not being compatible with this feature causing it to become inactive after a while or use the iGPU instead of the Dedicated GPU.
Disable Nvidia Optimus |
---|
|
Use DXVK-Async instead of DX11 |
---|
|
- Despite being a Widely known issue, Techland has yet to acknowledge this incompatibility issue and it remains unfixed.
"Profile has been changed" game-breaking bug
- The Epic Games Store version seems to be affected by a bug that causes the player to drop out to the main menu, and lose progress, because the player's profile was detected to have been changed.
- There are various possible ways of solving this issue:[15]
Create a fake Profile using a shortcut with specific Parameters.[16] |

Launch game directly using -EpicPortal command line argument.[17]
