Tips and general information

The game will always use as much CPU and GPU resource as it can when you're playing in order to maximize the framerate and improve responsiveness.

By default, the game will automatically throttle down when it does not have the focus. This happens when it is minimized or when another application has the focus. This is to make sure your other applications stay responsive while you are using them, otherwise they would become very slow as the game would still be using all of your computer's resources. This is why people notice the game going into Low priority when they look in the Windows Task Manager. This is also why they see the game running in the background at around 15 FPS. This is the intended behavior, and these resources are all taken back by the game when it gets the focus back. The process priority goes back to Normal, and the FPS goes back up.

If you don't want to use this behavior, you can deactivate this feature by going to the Settings -> Graphics -> CPU Priority Management and set this option to "Manual". The game will then allow you to set the priority manually through the Task Manager.

The team continues to work hard to address as many issues as possible. Stability and performances are a priority and with each title update, you should see an improvement. Let us know how this release is helping with your specific issues.

As always, if you're encountering problems, please reach out to player support on Twitter @ATVIAssist and Reddit u/ATVIAssist**.**
