READ THIS IF YOU EXPERIENCE STUTTERING/FREEZES

I was experiencing a lot of stuttering/freezing in-game. A lot. Every few seconds my character would just freeze, and the monsters. I thought it to be the servers, maybe my ISP as some people suggest etc., maybe my crappy computer...

I found a fix that worked 100% for me. 100%. I never stutter or freeze anymore.

Go into Options and turn off Dynamic Resolution. I know this is on by default and is also recommended, but turning it off was the only thing that fixed it, for me.

This might not fix everyone's issue for stuttering/freezing, but it 100% fixed mine. I think it was switching the resolution so often, it was causing freezes.

If you need a similar solution to Dynamic Resolution without the freezes because it'll be permanent scaling instead of switch-based, use Nvidia Image Scaling. AMD has their own version, though I am not familiar with it. I'm sure you could find it easily enough.

I am not using NVIDIA Image Scaling, just simply turning off Dynamic Resolution fixed my issue.


NVIDIA Image Scaling:

Open NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > and enable Image Scaling. I'd suggest lowering the % to whatever feels comfortable for image sharpness.
Next, open your game, make sure you are in Fullscreen mode. To get your performance boost, navigate to the game's display settings and set the display resolution to something that’s lower than your native resolution, but also uses the same aspect ratio. For example, if you’re using a 3840x2160 monitor, set it to 2450x1440 or 1920x1080. The lower you go, the bigger performance gain you’ll get, though the image quality will be lower even with upscaling.




This has 100% changed the way my game plays resulting in smooth gameplay without any stutters or freezes.

Goodluck and hope this helps some other players!
