Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare PC Performance Thread

It is most likely the network. The network performance causes direct issues with the game performance. Thats where most of the mouse stuttering comes from.
Even with single player? Havent even tried MP yet. Lol

You should never have to do that with games on Steam. If the game has a config file, delete it and verify, or let the game generate a new one.
Oh my bad didn't realise it was SP.
I really don't know what you're so damn upset about that they deserve to be called 'trash developers'.
And you do realize that there is a middle ground between people who eat up anything they're given without complaint and people like you rabid with nerdrage, right?
Well, it was the top rated question by far and they completely ignored it, but answered all the others. Not a good look.

Single player:
game started stuttering after the half-way mark even with a 970 and gsync rog swift
and yes I have shadow cache off

Nerd rage? Sure Im angry because I spent money on a game that isn't going to get the same support as it does else where. I think you are overstating what I said as nerd rage.

Beyond the better LODs and shadows? More Anti-aliasing options... not sure what else.

HBAO+, the best form of AO.
Ah cool. Thanks for the input guys.. Damn, I'm deciding between PS4 or PC since I know the mp will be more active on PS4, but I'd really like to play this at 1440p with my 780 Ti... Hmm..
I've bought almost every COD on PC despite sometimes also owning it for a console. I just used to love playing COD on PC but each and every new version has become worse and worse: sloppy support, unoptimized port, almost no one playing anything but TDM, etc. Ghosts was the kicker for me, if somehow they start making good PC ports of a game that started on the PC to begin with and put resources into supporting the PC version I will maybe buy it again. Right now, as much as I love Mouse and Keyboards for my FPS games I just cannot justify buying another COD when they treat PC customers like 3rd class citizens. If you guys have a PS4 or Xbox One and want to play COD I strongly suggest staying away from the PC version day 1 unless there has been confirmation that the PC version plays well on most hardware.

Getting some drops from 60 to 5X which cause some very annoying stuttering. Lowered the settings a bit and nothing changed. I have a 970 and I'm getting an experience that is inferior to consoles, which is absurd.

Not sure if I should get this on PS4 or PC. I play with the controller on PC so I really don't feel like getting my ass kicked by players who use the mouse and keyboard but since there's aim assist, I might pick up the PC version.
Does anyone know if this game supports SLI. I'd like to play this in 4k.

Do they let you use aim assist for the controller when playing multiplayer?

Now I don't fell that bad since I'v been trying to get rid of the stutter. I'm running 770 GTX, i5 2500k sandy, 8gb of memory. Runs fine to an extent then when I quickly turn around when there's a lot of scenery it dips into the 50's rarely into the 40's.
I 'v got shadow cache off, texture detail set to HIgh, Depth of Field is on Normal or what ever the setting is. And FOV is at 90. Super sampling is off as well, anti-aliasing is set to 2x.
Still getting the stutter and in MP it's killed me couple times.
Anyone know the sweet spot yet for settings to get locked 60?
Edit: Oh and I'm using nvidia driver's from 10/22.
Someone on my friends list was having the same issue. Deleting the game and switching content servers fixed it... well, fixed it enough that he could download the game again, at least.

So help me out GAF? I'm still fully learning hardware performance. I have:
GTX 670 2GB
6GB Ram
i5 3570k
I can run this at max, with 60 fps as long as I'm not caching stuff?? The VRAM is what I'm most worried about. Hate stuttering and hitching.

I fixed the stuttering problem, all I did was change to borderless and active Sync Every Frame. Running pretty flawless @ 60 now.

I'm in the exact same boat, just more RAM. Definitely hoping to see how it'd run. If it doesn't hit a solid 60 on relatively highish settings (or at least close enough to a solid 60 that you could assume driver updates would do it eventually) I might just go PS4.

Where's the borderless option? And you have Sync every frame on or off?

Change "fullscreen" to "windowed (no border)". Yes, I turned SEF on.

Thanks! I'll try that when I get home from lunch.
Did you have Vsync on in your Nvidia settings? Because I do, do I need to turn it off. I found it got rid of my in game tearing, a little.
Anyone know how to take away the stutter in cutscenes yet as well?

That is some very nice performance at the highest cvars. 60fps on 980 at 4k.

Their benchmark sequence is not very well chosen, nothing really happens.
Therefore I don't put too much stock into those benchmarks
I'm running on an older system than that:
i7 860 (3.3ghz)
8GB RAM
GTX 570 (1.2GB VRAM)
Playing on a 1080 monitor
I've got all texture settings on high, SMAA (I think), shadows on normal with caching disabled. I turned post-processing effects off as well (I don't like DOF, and I'll never notice the subtleties of the others in a game this fast). Not getting any stuttering, and the lowest framerate I've seen so far was 55 in single-player. Multiplayer tends to be in the 70s and 80s.

This is a thing that happens with certain games and I'd love to know why. The last game I've played that had this same issue (stuttering in Fullscreen, perfectly smooth in Bordless Window mode) was Diablo 3. I never understood why. Why some games not others? Why does it continue to happen time and time again?

Wow would have that there are more people playing this game on launch than 8k...

A game's Vsync options will not do anything when you choose a windowed mode. You're forcing the game to render to the desktop surface, so the game is not in control of Vsync in that scenario.
If there's a most common answer, it's that the game's sync to display implementation is bollocks. When you choose windowed mode in recent Windows OSes, the output method forced is similar to triple buffering. The extra buffer often smoothes out the delivery of frames and also allows the framerate to wander from the Vsync limit without dropping to half/quarter sync rate.
Why it continues to be a problem is a mystery to me. Developers have all the tools to avoid the problem. Most seem content to let GPU and display companies solve it with variable refresh technologies.

I wouldnt worry much about v-sync, I'm pretty sure what did the trick for me was the borderless option. I had and still have adaptive v-sync activated on the Nvidia settings, and when I turned SEF on ingame the problem was still there. Then I tried borderless and it started running so well that I didnt even bother to change SEF back off. I think likely borderless is all you'll need. And it fixed 90% of the cinematics' stutter for me as well.

So I'm watching lirik's stream on Twitch and guy he is playing against is just jumping in the air spinning no scoping with sniper rifle destroying people. Didn't even look like he was killing people either in the killcam

Ah thanks, it's confirmed then. Based borderless.
That seems to be always their problem. Everyone uses them, cause they are most often the fastest, but if you compare their fps with other sites they are always to high.

What's up with these crazy-ass long load times? First mission takes up towards a minute from SSD!
Much like people pay for xbl or ps+ on a yearly basis cheaters pay subscriptions to latest hacks. Theres always wankers out to ruin it. That, lag, guy was lucky or is Rambo.

Fuuuuck that means no Gsync for me D:
Turn off shader preload. It cuts down load time significantly.

Anyone find any good profiles for Crossfire to use? Hopefully AMD has them ready for new drivers....ughhh.
Not always, sometimes they make sure their benchmark is really taxing.
From my experience their numbers are reliable enough.

Ok, finally finished downloading and now when I launch it it's outputting to my second monitor (TV). Now, my TV isn't my primary monitor, my monitor is. My monitor has the task bar and start menu and all that jazz. I'm not in "big picture" mode either. I see no option to swap it and I'm not going to play an FPS with a control pad when I should be able to play it with my kb+M. Anyone know how I fix this?
EDIT: Ok, I got the multiplayer to start on my main screen by setting it to windowed mode, moving the window over to my monitor and setting it up as borderless window but I can't do it for the campaign because it doesn't have an options menu for some reason. Does the campaign have options or did they just not bother?
EDIT2: nevermind, unlike the multiplayer options menu you have to click on campaing first for it to show up in the same place.

Having both the PC and PS4 version I can tell you I regret getting the PC version. I have a 780 card and can max this thing out on 1080p. I also exclusively play pc with controller hate mouse and key. Compared to the ps4 the graphics diff is negligent (this is WITH super sampling at 2x) while the controller is SO much smoother and more satisfying on ps4. I bought PC for SP thinking graphic diff would be worth it but def not. The PC is also so much more cap capible than this game feel like it's still a sloppy port as it's just not as smooth sampling on or off.
