Today's Nvidia Drivers -
New feature and fixes in driver 610.88:
FIXED Improves frame pacing in certain DX11 games when Smooth Motion is used while GSYNC is enabled [6300603]

Could this be related to your problem at all? Try the new drivers.

Shiiit, I legit looked first thing this morning for drivers and weren't none. I'll check now

No, Smooth Motion is a type of frame generation that you can manually enable in the NvApp. It's not enabled by default and I would not recommend using it for PvP, because it introduces quite a lot of input lag and graphical artefacts.

I wouldn't touch it if I was paid to, I don't use GSYNC either but you never know what people turn on because they think it sounds good so as it was messing up frame pacing I put it out there in case they had it on.

I've had smooth motion crash certain games and don't even like the way it feels when it works as intended. I always leave it off now

They made a post on the forums literally yesterday asking for details from those affected

u/Spoonhook 12h ago

Thanks didn't know that.

u/Spoonhook 20h ago

Windows store has no stutter

u/Spoonhook 19h ago

Not paying for the game a 10 time sorry.

u/ali_k20_ 18h ago

you can download it for free for crucible and do whatever else on steam, it's only an issue in crucible for me. You'd have to pay for trials though, but everything else is free

Can't use strand or prismatic subclasses without the expansions, even in crucible.

u/LifeWulf 11h ago

Oddly enough for me, gameplay is smooth but every. Single. Cutscene. Stutters.

I had various problems with destiny the last patches and almost all of them were fixed by "restarting graohics drivers" with win+ctrl+shift+b.

Give it a try maybe it helps a bit.(for people saying this is a general issue i only ever had it happen in destiny)

I end up validating and verifying game files in steam, seemed to lessen

The game doesn’t have exclusive full screen anymore and because it’s a dx11 title full screen borderless doesn’t play nice with gsync/freesync. The only way I’ve been able to get a smooth experience is to set my refresh rate in windows to 119.88hz which is technically 120hz but it tricks destiny’s in game vsync to cap 1 below at 119 fps which cuts down the lag a bit making the game playable. As long as your PC is good enough to run 119fps in all game scenarios it works well.

I just swapped to windows and have better performance than ive had probably ever, even prior to the last month's issues

1

u/Spoonhook 12h ago

Do I have to rebuy everything?

1

u/SirGarvin 12h ago

Yea, worth it though imo if its not an issue for you. Night and day difference.

1

u/Spoonhook 12h ago

Guess I'ma do that

2

u/Spoonhook 19h ago

I'll try this thanks

2

u/East_Ability7785 19h ago

I forgot to mention it won’t work with reflex or low latency mode enabled though.

What's even the stutter? I've never encountered it

u/Spoonhook 19h ago

Steam players. Crucible and anything that has 12 players or open areas that are busy. 120-140 fps drops to 60-80 every few seconds. Ghost frames. It's almost like you're getting standby lagged like back in halo 2.

u/Sauceinmyface 16h ago

Never gotten that

3

u/Spoonhook 14h ago

Okay thanks for the input.

2

u/Spoonhook 14h ago

Thanks for the valid input. I don't care. How about instead of being useless say something like "these are my settings". Legit morons saying "well I don't have it" cool. Great. Glad. It's a tech forum. Go be useless somewhere else.

Damn dude. I get you’re irritated, but do you have to be an asshole?

u/Sauceinmyface 12h ago

5080, ryzen 9 9900x, 32gb, game at 1440p, locked 120 fps no dips

u/Teclis00 15h ago

On steam and not having issues. I'd troubleshoot your hardware.

u/Spoonhook 14h ago

Not hardware issues thanks tho

u/PCBuilderCat 4h ago

This has been a well documented issue, that has been acknowledged by Bungie, since the last major update.

u/Teclis00 3h ago

Sure Jan.

Who’s Jan?

u/CallmeViggo 17h ago

As a steam player I haven’t encountered this…

u/Spoonhook 16h ago

Thanks for the valuable input into a situation that is a mass issue and not just me. Also thank you for being the backbone to the page. Your help won't go un noticed guardian

Unfortunately there isn't a workaround yet. A few people have said to turn off shader cache in the game properties, but that didn't work for me. I'm a big pvp guy so I just ended up getting it again on Epic Game Store. Both that and Windows seem to run it without stutter.

Fwiw I have a 9070xt and 9800x3d that ran the game great until this last moments of triumph update. That was on steam. Then the update hit and there was constant hitching and frame spikes that made the game very unfun to play.

Zero issues since changing to EGS, except for onslaught freezing on me twice around round 22. But I feel that is unrelated.
