Issues unresolved
Loading issues in DirectX 12 mode
- The game may take longer to load or get stuck at the intro loading screen when the DirectX 12 mode is selected.[26][27][28]
Edit the config file to return to DirectX 11[8] |
---|
|
Stuttering on high-end hardware
- There have been multiple reports of the game stuttering on hardware exceeding the recommended system requirements.[29][30]
- Switching to DirectX 12 may result in better performance and reduction of stuttering, as well as better utilization of the CPU in combat on high-end hardware.[31][32]
Disable Control Flow Guard[33] |
---|
|
Block all network connections from the game to potentially reduce stuttering[35] |
---|
|
Use the -NOTEXTURESTREAMING command line argument to disable texture streaming.[36]

---|
|
Game freezing in Mayhem Mode
- Having the Mob Mentality modifier enabled may cause the game to freeze.
From the Mayhem menu, reroll until the Mob Mentality modifier is no longer listed.[37][38] |
---|
Menu cropping
- The cropping issues affecting the menu screens at resolutions other than 16:9 have been addressed for the most part as of the latest game version.[39][40]
- However, Catch-a-Ride menu screens are cropped at resolutions wider than 16:9.[41]
Use keyboard buttons to spawn a vehicle[41] |
---|
Press E to select, Q to deploy, and Tab ↹ to close the menu. |
- Some of the vehicle customization options are out of view at 32:9 and wider resolutions.
