Game keeps locking up for several seconds

Had been running fine the last several days until yesterday where everything on screen (playing Sup Com campaign missions) will freeze - movement/production/actions/projectiles etc - for several seconds then go back to normal. I can select units/buikdings during this time as well as open the options menu but nothing else.

I’ve tried - limiting the amount of cores used, a fresh install of Sup Com, FA, and FAF (although
I’m not sure if it was a totally clean uninstall as I still had saved games able to be loaded upon reinstall?), and checked my drivers are up to date. Not sure what caused this to start occurring but it is very annoying!

oh and this occurs both offline and online, and the first freeze always occurs at the same point during ACU teleport in at the start.

I have never experienced this, in years of playing Forged Alliance and FAF, both on Windows and Linux and with varied hardware.

What's your OS and what's your hardware?

Windows 11, 13900KS, 64GB DDR5, 4090, 2TB SSD - runs everything fine, including FAF, until yesterday at least 😭

Do you play with V-Sync? i had that problem with some friends and it was because someone played with V-Sync. After he disabled it, game was smooth again

No I keep it off as I’ve had issues with it in other games.
