[2020] Locked 24FPS with Vulkan

Hey there JLN!

Sorry to hear you're having issues.

Are your graphics drivers up to date?

I'd also advise trying our PC troubleshooting to test of any of these steps resolve this at all.

Thank you!

Hey JLN.-,

Thanks for your response there.

Just to double-check so that I understand this correctly - you launch R6: Siege or Hyper Scape and every single time you get 24 FPS however after restarting your PC you then have normal FPS, is that right? Also, could you clarify as to when did this start happening since? Was it possibly after the latest update? Let us know!

Hey ISlurpz, thanks for reaching out and I am sorry to hear about the issue you ran into.

Could you advise us what graphics card are you using and what is the latest update for it? Also, did you have a chance to roll it back to see if game launches?
