khaidani, check whether you have some weird background service.

crap...this game lags...and then it crashes...so far i only got past the cell door lol...

for me was stuttering every 3 secs, even GOW forums ppl b****ing already....

I tried to put in a settings change, now it will hang and direct jump out.

There was no warning at all....haih...game looked sooo fine and was happy with at 30-50fps....

the patch made my game crash in less than 10s. Previously it crashed after 30s.
Stutter still there...
Good job Epic / MS.

I noticed similar stuttering in UT3, but since I change executable filename to bioshock.exe no more problems...
unfortunately gw4-live@#$@#!$.exe cannot change file name...otherwise startup.exe cannot execute.

didnt work for me though. random crashing + stuttering became worst.

And BTW those settings are forcing medium textures.
