Issues unresolved
Stuttering, frame drops, or poor performance
Many people experience stuttering for at least a short time while playing the game.[6][7]
This may be related to the game's engine (Unreal Engine 4) loading game assets on-the-fly.[8][9]
Installing and running the game on a fast-access hard disk such as an SSD may lessen the issue. Stuttering should decrease after playing the game for a short time as more assets are loaded into your computer's memory.
