Sudden Pauses In Game

[Destroyalord7]

At times, the game itself pauses for a few seconds, before resuming normally. Warframe runs smoothly and fps does dip when many enemies are on the screen which is normal; the sudden pauses happen during gun play/combat and out of combat.

Had this happen as well. Shot a Grineer grunt with the Paris, and then the game paused for a few seconds. When it resumed again, I could hear it ragdolling somewhere. I looked up, and it was flailing around and causing insane lag whenever I had a part of it on screen.

I've had this happen a lot more recently then compared to i'd say a week or two ago.

That's been happening to me lately as well. When I first started playing about 3 weeks ago it never happened.

Can you please try this temporary workaround and let me know if it alleviates the situation at all?

 

- Run Warframe

- Open Task Manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESCAPE or CTRL+ALT+DELETE)

- Click the 'Processes' tab

- Right click 'Warframe.exe'

- Highlight 'Set Priority'

- Click 'High priority'

If that doesn't help, then can you please submit a support ticket with an EE log and a copy of your dxdiag? This could help us narrow down what exactly is going on with the engine when the issue occurs, as well as give us a detailed look at your system specs.

 

Ideally it would be best if you used an EE log that was retrieved immediately after you have had this issue occur.

 

Your EE.log can be found at the following location:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Warframe

 

To retrieve your dxdiag simply follow these steps:

1. Hold down Win + R

2. Type "dxdiag" and click "OK" 

3. Click "Save all Information..." and save the text file to a location of your choice 

 

Any additional information that you can provide is greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot.
