I also get this exact same issue, I figured it was hardware related on my end and resigned myself to simply restarting the game every 30-60 mins.
Not sure if this helps, but it seems to occur WAY faster when doing 3v3’s back to back for a period of time, so my theory is it’s something to do with phasing in and out of an instance.
I cap my game at 60 FPS and it stays there comfortably, no jitters or lag when swapping, however after 30-60 mins of arenas my game will literally stutter and go down to 5-10 FPS when weapon swapping quickly.
Thank you @Kurt for bringing this to light. Ags please investigate!

You’re very welcome! Bugs that affect hardware seem to be rare and I’m hoping we can get a response soon that they are at least aware of it.
Hi all! Just wanted to let you know we are aware of these reports and are actively looking into it.

Yay! I’m so glad we got an official response on this. Feel free to reach out to me if you need additional information, logs, or anything that might help the developers track this issue down.

Hey @Aenwyn , I just did the weapon swap thing in Arenas today, oh yeah, it’s for real, even worse in Arenas. I went from 60 FPS to 51 or 52, my frame times also spiked. I would suggest starting in Arenas, then OPR, then dungeons. Dungeons don’t seem to impact FPS or Frame Times as much as Arenas. But right now, Arenas have the biggest impact to FPS and Frame Time.

They seem to have a memory leak issue still, so I would restart new world every hour
Thanks for letting us know <3.

Same thing here with my RTX 2080 Super & R9 3900X.
Frametime-spikes appear after around 2-3 arena matches and the game is running super bad (stuttering by Weapon-Swap & constant FPS drops) after that.
Only restarting the Game is actually working.
Tbh - Playing experience with this is absolute horrible so i hope there will be a fix soon…

Everything was perfect last week, yesterday I noticed that the frames/video flow was different, but the fps showed remains above 100. Its kind a lag, video freezes for mileseconds.
Thanks for the response!

I don’t want to directly blame New World, but yesterday when I played Lazarus I first had a couple of freezes and then after restart, I had a freeze to colorful artifacts and now my 1080Ti is dead…I mean the card is around 2 years old…that shouldn’t have happened.
I have found out that some of those issues is exclusively related to:
DLSS / VSR
And the in-game resolution in which is not fullscreen
but some horrible code of a borderless window.
Whatever you change the resolution the Wattage increase
in HUGE numbers, may not be related to the swap of weapons and such
but if you are using VSR nor DLSS do not increase the resolution
past you monitor cuz it may brick your video card due to the huge wattage usage.
The window mode of this game is a horrible version of
a borderless window that i have ever seen such a horrible window mode
like this one, and I can only assume that passed 1080p the wattage must be increasing like hell…
So for all means, do not enable DLSS nor VSR.
Until they actually add a better code for window modes,
this horrible version we have here will be bricking many video cards.
if you can, undervolt your video card to be safe cuz whoever
code that windows mode, should not be coding AT ALL.
Whoever code that particularly ‘window mode’ should not be working
for the industry at all.
Note: The ‘Main Menu’ is a video card / PSU killing machine!
How do you enable DLSS in New World?

for AMD, VSR translates into Virtual Super Resolution. (AMD control panel)
I don’t have a Nvidia card but i know that they use DLSS aka super sampling. (NV control panel I think)
I don’t think that’s possible. I’m pretty sure the game has to support DLSS in order to turn it on for that title.

bump, wow today. no weapon swap will kill your computer.
just test it out yourself.
hang out in the main menu and change ‘resolution’
and see for yourself the huge difference in wattage usage.
How is this not HOT Fixed ASAP is beyond me… For people that are only here for the pvp (Arena/OPR) this is so fucking unplayable… What a spaghetti game…
and not to mention, every leap ability has 50% to return you to the spot you are leaping from…
Im not playing shit shit anymore untill they fix this…
