Psycho's face in cutscenes causes FPS drops... ?

Post » Sun Feb 24, 2013 8:47 am

I don't know what exactly it is but in cutscenes, when any of psycho (especially his face) is on screen, it causes my FPS to drop to the mid 20s. Anybody know why that is, what setting is responsible, or what CVar to tweak to fix that problem?

I'm using a GTX 590, 1680x1050, 1xSMAA w/ FXAA enabled in Nvidia control panel, everything set to very high except shading and postprocessing, which are both set to just "high". Frame rate capped at 30FPS and I'm playing with an Xbox 360 controller - My logic is that it's like I'm playing the Xbox 360 version, just with immensely better graphics.

Yes this is happening to me too. All cutscenes seem to have 30 fps but in some it is 120 and then as soon as psycho or some other character comes in it falls to 30. Stranger things I haven't seen in games.

Same here along with random sporatic FPS drops throughout the campaign.

So it's not just me then. Was anybody at all able to fix this?
