So title says it all. Previously I had 0 performance issues with reforged (played it a couple weeks ago on the same machine.) (Ryzen 7 5800X, 32GB, RTX 3800, game on an NVMe)
I had settings all pinned to the wall previously with no issue.
Now, I get consistent stuttering. With the game running at my native 4k@60fps w/ VSYNC, i get 60fps for 3-4 seconds before a small “freeze” almost like about 15-20 frames are skipped.
Strangely enough, with these new sliders it opens up some TS, if i set all the 6 sliders on the Reforged tab to " Classic HD" but leave the overall slider on “Reforged” (Effectively playing on classic textures. I STILL have the issue.
Flipping the overall slider to classic solves the issue.
I should note that I’m testing on the very first campaign mission in RoC with Thrall only, its about as minimal as i can get.

most likely this was a massive public test for them. They knew it wasn’t ready, needed something for the event, and just decided to launch it unfinished to see what broke.
The performance issues are so bad for the few that are even able to play it, they’ll likely pull it from battle net for a few weeks then re launch.
Its a shame, i would have waited for them to fix things properly.

I’m having similar issues. I was previously playing at 120-144fps at 1440p. Playing today I started at 55fps, changed all settings to medium and shadows off and it only bought me about 10fps with some small moments where I’m hitting the low 70’s.
Whats strange is that my cpu is hovering around 9% usage and my GPU is about 60-70%, so there’s plenty left in the tank. Not sure what’s going on

Went from smooth 120 fps at 4K to frequent stutters and dips to 80 fps. Win 10, RTX 4080, 5700X3D. Can’t say I’m surprised. If we are lucky, poor indie company will fix this in a couple of years.

After an update I downloaded on 20 November, my fps seems to have gone up slightly, but depending on what’s on screen, the gap is now wider.
Hard to understand what’s causing this as sometimes I’ll dip to mid 50’s, but there’s very little on screen.
Still my hardware is nowhere near its limits, GPU (6700xt) mostly sits at 60% usage while CPU (5700x3D) is sitting between 8-12%.
