I noticed low FPS in this mode too. Some games were fine, some don’t.

At first I thought this was an issue with backfill, because more than not I got fps drops when I joined an existing game… But during one of those games I figured anytime reaper died in my games my FPS went back to normal, but was dropping to 20s the moment he respawns.

I also found a discussion with other people observing the same exact thing as I explained, but from a few months ago. So maybe there’s a chance of something being wrong with reaper’s game code.

Had this too, played two junk lab games that were perfectly fine, busan and lijan tower at 140+ fps, then the third game ilios (sunny) FPS dropped from 140 to 15-20 most of the game. FPS jumped to 50 is while i was dead, and when the game ended and displayed the victory poses it jumped back to 140+. Backfill. played Dva. Reaper on other team. replay 0TZ2A8

I literally just had a game like this, their poor reaper was confused but me and my duo would lag every time he was alive and when he died it would go back to normal (its happening on console as well mind you we are both on xbox)

Had a game last night on Busan, i back filled and got terrible FPS
But soon everyone but the mercy left and my FPS returned to normal

Mine happens when there is a reaper in my game. When the reaper dies, my frames jump from 20-30 to 50-55.

Confirmed, renders the game pretty much unplayable. Completely unacceptable since Blizz punishes you for leaving a match, even in these game modes.

another game ruined by this, five people in the same match talking about bad 30 FPS

Still happening in Haunted Masquerade…
