[PC] 2nd Post - 4months later problem still here! Severe Frame Pacing Issues After Edge of Fate/RENEGADES — High FPS but Plays Like 30–40 FPS

Since the Edge of Fate update, I’ve been experiencing severe frame pacing issues in Destiny 2 on PC. The game reports a rock-solid 170 FPS, but Steam’s FPS graph shows constant dips into the 30–40 FPS range every 3 seconds or so. This results in gameplay that feels like 30–40 FPS — choppy, jittery, and far from smooth. Before this update, I was running an actual, stable 170 FPS without these dips. This is not an isolated hardware issue: My drivers are fully updated. I’ve tested other games — all run perfectly smooth. I’ve seen the exact same issue reported by players on RTX 5080 + Intel 14900K systems, as well as many other high-end builds. This is 100% a frame pacing problem introduced with Edge of Fate and tied to Bungie removing Exclusive Fullscreen mode. Borderless Windowed (forced by the update) is clearly not handling frame presentation properly. Specs: Ryzen 9800X3D RTX 3080 32GB DDR5 1440p @ 165Hz Community Evidence: There’s an active Reddit thread where many others are posting videos and Steam FPS graphs showing the exact same frame dips: 🔗 https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/1mfvlwe/hitchingstuttering_post_edge_of_fate/ *Videos by Reddit user fluidzreddit* Orbit - https://youtu.be/53rTDyQqW3E Kepler - https://youtu.be/2qsjBI-FhZk Edz - https://youtu.be/0NaZUVIBSwE Bungie, please address this ASAP. The game is unplayable for many of us right now — this is not a minor hitch or FPS drop, it’s a fundamental frame delivery problem affecting smoothness and aiming across the entire game. Bungie fix this or give us a solution because it's been months and nothing!

  • Same thing here, posted about It way back around the time It started, I'm now on a completely new pc with these specs. Exact same issue lmfao, frame time Is all over the place. 5080 9950x3d 64GB DDR5 6000mhz ram 2TB nvme ssd ( for windows ) 4TB nvme ssd ( with the game on It ) This Is just getting ridiculous at this point, how can they not even have mentioned the issue for so long now?. The game used to run and play so smooth, It's sad honestly.
