I was playing BF1 just fine untill the newest update. Now I can’t stop having 100% cpu usage, stuttering, mouse lag and fps drops! Before the update it was normal! My specs: I5 6600k Gtx 1070 8gb 32gb of RAM Corshair ---

Same here, Used to be able to run ultra at 60fps, now it’s dropping below 30 for me when even when intensive fights aren’t happening. Same setup as you ---

I haven’t noticed any change regarding FPS since the update. I only get more network icons pop up and have worse ping. ---

I was having the same issues, before june patch the game was running really good. What i did was updating my gpu drivers (378.49 → 382.53) and lower down the post process effects to medium and it worked fine. My specs are: i5 4440 GTX 970 16 gb ram Hope it helps you guys ☹ ---

I’m really new to BF1 and since my rig is really new as well (~3 weeks) I was worried that it might be an hardware issue (I’m still a little, but since I’m not the only one with these issues it’s becoming less likely). So, same for me here, since the last Update im getting plenty of warning labels with the fps-warning beeing the most frequent one. I’m getting fps drops to 50fps, and in between the game doesn’t run on smooth 60fps any more too. Pretty sure it was previously. Neither the CPU nor the GPU load reaches 100%. Ryzen 5 1600x / GTX 1060 6GB / 16GB RAM, Dual ranked, dual channel (2x8GB), @ 2667MHz ---

Same I’ve gone from 70+ to below 10 at times, especially just about every map. Huge frame rate drops across the board (gtx 1060 6GB) ---

When FPS drops check taskmanager to see what is taking up CPU. All kinds of things start in the background that cause FPS to drop, many can be removed or disabled. ---

I7 6700k z170 msi a slight plus EVGA 1070 16gb dimm. I notice the only person saying it was playing fine was the one with the 7th gen 7700k … Hope this don’t mean my hardware is outdated? ---

My game is laggy since the update also, when flying its fine until i nose down and go for strafing runs, it gets real choppy. A bit noticable when in big firefights as infantry also. Was never like this, always ran fine no lag no studder :\ ---

Finally had chance to update today and test ,all seems same for me if not slightly better to be honest , new map seemed to run fine and TSNP maps were running fine (these used to be iffy for me) no warning icons only server icon occasionly but that happened before no latency or fps warnings will test some more when can After more testing I can confirm for me the game runs better after the update running w7 and nvidia driver 376.33 ---

TSNP is fine as are the other vanilla maps. I sometimes put some of those issues down to a dodgy server only played half a round of amiens so can’t really comment on that but didn’t seem any worse . ---

Each update means the game runs a little slower. If your PC just about coping with BF1 this can like my old PC successive updates push it into poorer performance. My old PC was fine when BF1 was first released. On my current PC no problems so far except one version of the driver cut FPS so I reverted back to 17.4.4.
