I play on an in game resolution of 2560x1440 (165HZ)* and a framerate cap of 144 fps. Whenever I play Symmetra and I reload, her animation of the reload cuts to what looks like 60 fps or 30 fps it is hard to tell. My game does not drop frames, but the reload animation itself clearly doesn’t look as fluid or smooth as it should be

been having this exact problem for months… 1440p and 144hz but fps is over 160.
finally got tired of trying to fix and searched and found this.
I don’t play often but Sym is almost unplayable because every reload the game seems to run at 30fps. No dropped frames like OP but sys reload animation is a big chunk of the screen and it seems to distort the screen instead of just playing the animation at a lower fps.
doesn’t happen with any other hero, even when you can tell the reload animation for that hero is played at a lower fps due to game settings. It doesn’t effect the actual game like Sym.
This is probably just me, but I also haven’t been able to figure out what exact setting changes the animations to play at a lower fps. Tried each setting one by one and no change.
emotes and such play at 30fps I’m assuming result of playing at all low settings. Assuming this is what causes the fps to become distorted during sym reload.
