Stuttering after 2.2.03 (or whatever the most recent patch was?)

Getting a noticeable amount of stuttering after the most recent patch. Trying to figure out if anyone else on either forums is talking about this?

Anyone point me in the right direction? It's rather annoying...

I've noticed some occasional micro freezes since the start of the year but for me it started before the new patch. I assumed it was graphics drivers and the nvidia experience software again. Not spent much time trying to fix it yet.

I have had the same however it effects the entire game window (launcher included) so I assumed a graphics driver thing. (1080 just updating to 3.2.2.49)

I've had something similar.
I find that when it starts if I alt-tab out of the game and back to it that it disappears. So I assume it's something to do with Windows/drivers?

a few times i have noticed the NPCs and their icons on my scanner 'skittering' like they sometimes do with human players over a bad connection

also, several times my ship seemed to jump like someone had crashed into me in a small ship

I've noticed some stuttering docking at a couple of specific stations (Goldreich Hub in HIP 23248 seems to do it fairly consistently). Other than that, no issues.

X4 970, R290, 12Gb, no VR.

Not sure if you are talking about the same thing, but I get massive audio stuttering followed shortly thereafter by severe video stuttering during a lengthy session in a CZ or RES. The work around is to leave the CZ/RES and jump back in and the stuttering clears up.... for a while.

Rinse and repeat. I never experienced this issue before the last patch. Several wingmates have reported the same issue.

That has been in game since long before last patch.
When I get it I have to leave immediately or i am about to have complete game freeze.

Irregardless of when it started, I really really wish they'd fix it!

It's super frustrating to have to leave a great spawn in a Haz-RES because of this issue.

Couldn't agree more, I had high hopes for 2.203...

Seems to happen somewhat as to how busy an instance is, and naturally the good ones are busier than the rest :(

It also seems to happen more when in a wing, or there is more commanders in the same instance

But the bug is local and not tied to the instance, so if you do get it in a wing, I discovered you can just Nav Lock to a buddy, jump out and immediately drop back in and the issue has cleared up.
And your buddies keep the instance going.

But we all seem to get it at some time, so after starting we can have one of us jumping out every few minutes.
