    Frame Rate Drop

    I play on Xbox One S.

    Has anyone else been suffering from frame rate drop, recently?

    It has been happening to me twice or three times, yesterday and day before.

    It is very frustrating to log out and back in, only to find that I'm no longer in the main mission with the group of four (three?). Even though I was the host. It should have said that disconnected, that's all. I was going to join back. I know and suspected the other players voted to kick me, the first time. But when playing with two clan members and one random, and I decided to relog to sort out the frame rate drop. I was spawned at the beginning of mission, all by myself in the session.

    Other thing I noticed was that my guns seemed to be unaffected by gun mods, while the frame rate drop was happening. My assault rifle mods have as much stability as possible. Same for my AA-12 shotgun. It's not AA-12, it's called AC-something, in the game. I'm talking about the fully automatic shotgun with 20 rounds. Anyway, I had maximum stability on it as possible. I still noticed recoil, much more recoil than supposed to be. The assault rifle had bullets spreading around, rising upwards from recoil.

    Anyway, it's annoying. I haven't read anyone having this problem in recent threads. I don't think my connection has anything to do with frame rate drop, right? It has to be something to do with in-game memory or something? I don't know the right wording. But the situations when I had frame rate drop:

    1) Dark Zone West (Occupied) near extraction / harbour.
    2) District Union Stronghold Invaded, at the section with two or three EMP jammers. Lot of waves.

    Do Black Tusk do something with the graphics that makes everything or my screen frame rate to drop? I don't know. Sometimes I feel like too much going on in the surrounding.

    I am on PC and noticed a 20-30 fps drop from the start of PTS ?.. So not sure if this is the cause ???. Also frame drop has been in the DZ from the start ? It is always lower for some reason ?..

    I'm on PS4 and I've seen this happen to an absurd degree. Last time I swear I had drops to 10-15fps which just led to a full freeze of the game for a few seconds. Had to restart my Ps4 to get rid of it. This game seems to wreak havoc on my console and I don't know why.
