Is anyone playing the PC version right now? I get random stutter and stutter that can be triggered by running certain distances, i might just get the xbox one version of the dlc....

I tried half refresh rate v-sync, it also fixed the stuttering im seeing right now.
Uh, holy shit, I played through a good 2/3rds of the game without ambient sounds, I watched a clip and realised I didn't have them working, jesus, what a difference it makes, you barely notice them being gone but having them play adds so much to the atmosphere. Farron would've been a much different experience with them for sure. Oh well, at least that's fixed, bonus is that the latest drivers have virtual surround support for any headphones and lets you turn audio normalization off if you use Dolby Digital Plus.
Such a weird issue too, these days sound typically either works or it doesn't work at all. Oh well, fixed it in time for the DLC at least, pretty sure ambience is going to play a large part in what looks like a pretty barren world to explore

I booted up DS3 yesterday and the physics and movement felt very stiff and heavy. Even when I take off all of my armor my movement and attack speed seems much slower than I remember. To be fair I've been playing a lot of Dragon's Dogma lately and the movement is much quicker. Did something change in a patch or have I just been away too long?

It's just that. : p

I had this. After updating my sound card drivers and nvidia drivers, that problem went away.
I actually had that identical problem on Dark Souls 2, and I don't think it was ever fixed for me in that, but I haven't played that in years.

Then I'd better start weaning myself off Dragon's Dogma otherwise it's gonna be hard playing the upcoming DLC.

Anyone experiencing random stuttering, i just fixed my finally by limiting the frame rate to 59.7fps in nvida inspector.
I figured since 30fps adaptive fixed the stuttering, it must be something to do with frame pacing.

I never fixed this on my old computer, but the problem doesn't happen on my new system. Probably was some kind8nd of driver thing.

By random stuttering, is what you saw was when the frame rate would randomly dip from 60 down to 57 or whatever and then shoot back up to 60?

Yup just micro stutter like that.

I'm getting an occasional micro stutter again since the update.

Upgraded to a 1070 recently and no matter what I do I still get a insane drop to 20 fps and then back 60, it only lasts 2 or 3 seconds but its already gotten me killed, so frustrating!

Yesterday game froze and I couldn't do anything except reboot the pc. That happened a couple of times now and I thought it was because of nvidia drivers, but now I'm starting to think it's because of the latest patch.

Figured out the problem, uninstalled geforce experience and it got rid of my random dips.

Came back to this after a long hiatus, and its crashing randomly. Never had that issue before. Anyone else getting this on the latest patch?
Yes, easily. The save file is in C:Users[name]AppDataRoamingDarkSoulsIII, or something like that. Just copy and paste from the laptop to the PC.
Just copy the save from AppData\Roaming\DarkSoulsIII. You only need to get the .sl2 file.
Edit: beaten, just like in Dark Souls.
Copying C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\DarkSoulsIII should do the trick.
Edit:
Yep. Played the game to completion in the spring/summer without a single issue. Started a new run a week or two ago and it freezes my PC pretty consistently now. I'm not sure if it's a recent patch problem or an Nvidia driver problem.
Playing the new DLC after a long break with the game and am noticing some weird sounds issues. The ambient background sound, like the wind rustling, seems to "reset" a lot, for instance during dialogue with npcs, each new line resets the background sound. Also while in the menu, if I idle my selection on an item, and then move selection, the same issue occurs. It's very noticeable and quite distracting from the experience.
Has anyone experienced this issue?

I've had this from launch with this game, thought it was fixed a bit ago, but the DLC has brought it back.
