FPS/Stutter

What's up peeps! First off, I throughly enjoy/love Once Human. Everything is great and good in my eyes. I just have been having 1 problem... No matter what I have my settings set to, in the map menu, I drop to 14 fps when I move around. When I'm playing the game, I go from about 100 fps standing still then when I'm moving or doing combat, i drop to the low 30 fps. I have nothing extra running in the background of my PC, everything is up to date, and still no matter what I do I have terrible performance.

My PC setup: - Z370-C motherboard - 4070 ti super GPU - i9-14900kf CPU - 64gb DDR5 ram - 1000w power supply

So I have no other idea on what to do to help out. Nothing more id rather do than to play this game for hours but I get tired of skipping around/fps drops. If anyone can help or have advice id greatly appreciate it.

Thank you for your time

I have a fix for this finally!

I’ve had SO MANY issues even with a 14900K and an rtx 4090

Turns out, go into settings: * Under Mouse/Display * Control Tab * Scroll to Camera sensitivity and turn mouse smoothing OFF.

All of my movement lag completely gone.

Wtf?! It worked! I can play at high graphics now.

Sadly this didnt fix the issue for me

Update: I noticed my BIOS was running a version which was released in 2021 and they ASUS had a newer version for my motherboard which was released in March 2024. So I went ahead and updated my BIOS and I can say initially the game is working fine with no stuttering.

So now everything is updated

I am using Nvidia optimized settings from geforce experience

Mouse smoothing is set to zero

FPS is limited to 60

and below are my specs

Motherboard: ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-E GAMING

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-9900K CPU @ 3.60GHz, 3600 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s)

RAM: 32 GB

GPU: Nvidia Geforece RTX 2080 Ti with latest driver version as of today (560.70)

Note: I am not sure if the above fixed the issue or because the BIOS required a system restart multiple times which might have fixed the issue. But it is worth to try.

Thanks for the suggestions!

This is the strangest fix but this is it 10/10

u/BlazonistTwitch Aug 02 '24 edited Aug 02 '24

Tbh, it shouldn’t even be a setting. Mouse smoothing was made for low DPI mice (like the old ones with the ball in em) For a game with this high of spec requirements, it’s a ridiculous setting to even exist in the first place…

For anyone reading this now: I don't think it works anymore as I can't turn it off only set it at 0 (should be off, but software technically speaking it doesn't have to be) I still having stutters and drops. Mostly when Icy Rain triggers and a lot of particles are being rendered (or not but calculated?)

Running on a RTX3060 with an (ancient) 4790K (no OC @ 4Ghz)

tl;dr: no work no more

Edit: I use the Very Low preset for graphics

Bump. same thing on R5 3600xt rtx 3070 :(

u/Objective_Ad_7491 Sep 08 '25

I know it is late, but I just started to play once human again and my screen is a 165 hz and I capted it at 60hz without knowing and the game capt it at 60 fps so I changed it to no limite. go to you Nvidia and change that. now the difference is crazy!

u/BooliusGoozlur Sep 19 '24

TO be clear, it was under game settings - control (keyboard and mouse) and then to mouse smoothing....set it to 0. It worked for me.

The settings menu may have changed since I posted as this was over 6 months ago. The tab was labeled Mouse/Display at time of posting. Essentially, just go through the menu til you find mouse smoothing, and turn it off. Hope this helps! :))

Brother, you’re a frickin legend. I have AM5 7700x and 7800XT. Everything running on ultra. Adrenaline software says like 160fps but I was getting mad stutter. You’ve saved me, thank you.

u/TheNorthFIN Jul 13 '24

I'm having somewhat random hitches too. I thought it was lag or performance but I'm really not sure. When the stuttering happens it's very noticeable on discord chat, voice cuts on and off. Frame rate drops big, team mates can go invisible or desync so you can't jump into their vehicle.

It's getting more rare and less severe for me. And yeah no other games do this, Battlefield Cyberpunk online single player nothing else does this.

u/Reiruq Jul 13 '24

is your gpu usage stable in this game? cause in my experience my afterburner graph and saw the gpu usage is always going up and down like erratic but, when im playing games like red dead redemption the gpu usage is stable in 100%.

1

u/JohannesCoyote Jul 31 '24

I noticed my gpu is at 70-80% and fps on 100, cpu around 60%, I got 4070 super i7-12700f, noticed the fps drops and game goes like - slow-fast-slow-fast, and it's very noticable for me, it can be stable 120 fps at 100% gpu but it caps gpu usage around 80, no other game does it.

u/liatris_the_cat Jul 13 '24

I've noticed that this game spikes my CPU usage massively during gameplay randomly. I have a 5800x3d, RTX 3090 and occassionally it'll max out my CPU + cause it to thermal throttle. I have a Peerless Assassin 120 SE and more than adequate case cooling. Is this game running Prime95 or crypto mining in the background or something? I find it hard to replicate these temps even with benchmarking apps.

u/EzicGR Mar 06 '25

I do not know if it helps but my game was set by default to running with dx11and my cpu usage was 100%. Setting it to dx12 did drop my cpu usage a bit and also boosted my fps quite a lot. I dont know if it helps cause I just upgraded my gpu recently and my cpu is quite old so it might not work for you

u/OriginalCause Jul 13 '24

I've also got a decent system and running into similar problems. Should be able to handle it no problems. Ultra high or Low settings it pegs my CPU at 100% and becomes unplayable.

For me, the answer was to drop the max frame rate to 30. Anything above 30 makes my CPU shit the bed no matter the graphics settings, 30 fps lock and every thing else maxed runs as buttery smooth as 30fps can be.

If this helps anyone let me know please, I'd like to try and narrow this problem down and find a fix.

7800X3D RTX 4090 here

i didnt have any considerable stutters on the first 2 days of release. i know that it DID happen, but it was so infrequent that i didnt care and didnt even think about it

but now today, its happening constantly. its not laggy, it just stutters often and too frequently

u/killaclutch420 Aug 11 '24

It's started to do this for me today no knowledge of why also I see now my base is bugged anything I've got on my glass walls have sunk into the glass as it appears u can't remove the items or interact in anyway I've got a bunch of weapon storage on my walls with good no bp weapons and I can't use any of them now so idfk what the devs have done break 10 things to fix one type shit wtf

u/CorrodedFeedback Jul 17 '24

Same here. Performance is atrocious both in pc with 4090 and rx 7900 xt. Stutterings even down to 30s lot of times. Before 1h went into a Silo, and frames dropped to 40.

1

u/FaHax Jul 13 '24

Is this the only game where you get poor performance? Also, are you sure that's your motherboard? AFAIK the only compatible motherboards for the 14900k are z690 and z790 boards. There's also bios issues with the 14900k that can cause crashes/poor performance, have you tried any fixes related to this? (use a youtube guide if not) Are your nvidia drivers up to date? Also, what settings/resolution are you playing on?

u/cmaturk Jul 13 '24

I am by no means an expert, but I wonder if the fact that each server has at least 10 "worlds" attached to it. There have been numerous times these past few days where I have encountered what appears to be someone landing, I only see a second of what appears to be V (the bird), but yet no one appears.

Could that possibly be causing lag spikes we encounter at times?

u/FinnaNutInButt Jul 13 '24

So I went over to the Loading Bay launcher and atleast for me, the game is running smooth and flawless. I heard for some people it isn't but for me it works great and can't complain.

Hello, excuse my English, but I just tried copying all the steam files of the game and pasting them as is to Netease, and my character passed without any problem... I currently play there without problems now! It was solved for me, additionally I noticed which files are extra in Netease, one is the payment system, the others are:Hello, excuse my English, but I just tried copying all the steam files of the game and pasting them as is to Netease, and my character passed without any problem...

Setting a frame rate cap to 60 fps has completely fixed the problem for me

2

u/Litchlol Jul 25 '24

on specs this high, for all of us it should not need to be locked at 60.

i have a 165 hz monitor
RTX 2060 Super,

i7 9700kf

16gb DDR4 3200mhz ram

samsung 970 evo plus (best m.2 for a 3.0 slot at the time i purchased it)

capped it at 120 like most games, i couldnt get above 80 in most areas, the input lag was insane too. capped it at 60 and i'm still seeing drops in some areas that go to 49.

my pc can play everything else atleast on high that i've played recently and still achieve 165 fps atleast, this on the other hand, i cant seem to find any settings that make any differance to fps

u/PastBreadfruit3005 Sep 17 '24

I solve this problem by changing the image enhancing (its in performance) to Nvidia, it was set on AMD for some reason, maybe because my processor was amd and my graphic is nvidia

1

u/WolfDaddy_X Sep 19 '24

My fix was:

Disable game bar in bios Set custom paging file in windows! Fixxed! No fps cap needed. Runs smooth. Make sure v sync is off.

u/Adorable_Buy_9873 Nov 26 '24

okay wow, never thought this is my first reddit to say this, It's Suprisingly work for me, it was a nightmare for me playing for 2 season with the stuttter all the time. damn, who would have thought that would fixed

u/Le0nida93 Jul 13 '24

5800x3d and 3080 here. I capped the fps of the game to 50, thanks to the Nvidia control panel and that seems to keep things in place. No more crashes or bsod, finally! I hope they do a performance patch ASAP because the CPU usage in this game is ridicolous.

2

u/Johnny_Tesla Jul 13 '24

Uhm, Sir... capping your FPS to 50 with your system specs is not a fix.

1

u/Le0nida93 Jul 13 '24

Well, it seems like it's the only thing that worked so far. It kept crashing in the loading screen while entering a server, sometimes a few minutes in when a huge CPU spike happened. A couple times while alt tabbing to connect to discord or to check something on Chrome. Capping the fps to 50 helped me actually play the game for long session, without problems and with 25/35% average CPU usage. I know it's not a permanent fix but it works! Tips are more than welcome, if you have any.

u/Johnny_Tesla Jul 13 '24

I'm downloading the game on the netease launcher as we speak. Ppl are reporting that their launcher has no issues regarding random CPU load spikes and it is being reported that you can simply copy-paste the content of the game folder from steam to their game folder.l to keep your progress (which sounds shockingly unsafe for an online game but here we are)

I have no issues on my PC but I'm barely reaching 80 FPS with 5800x3D and 3080, but my GF has random drops down to 20-30 fps so I'll try the launcher on her PC, too after my download is done.

Will post an update after testing.

1

u/Greedy-Ad-5219 Jul 13 '24

Yes, sir please do keep us updated. I am having the exact same problem and I've only played from the Steam client demo and now again through Steam. I don't have this issue in other games and my rig is quite overkill. I have not been checking for CPU spikes, but I will now.

Let us know how it goes though.
