Don't know if its the same issue, but after the last big update almost every mission I play starts with 80-100 FPS and then slowly degrades until by the end everything is crawling at 20 FPS or lower and becomes an unplayable slideshow.

Never had this issue before the July 23rd update and since then its almost impossible for me to finish any mission since at some point later on things become unbearable. Even lowered my settings but it doesn't improve anything. Could play fine before July 23 :(

Freezes could also be network issues. I have 1-2 second freezes when someone joins/leaves mid game. If you have low fps even in hub then prob GPU.
Try expanding memory for lua, turning off full screen optimizations, and set the max working threads to 4.

How to expand lua memory in steam

In Steam:
Libary > Right click Dark Tide > Properties > General > Launch Options

then type this in that field:

--lua-heap-mb-size 2048
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to Disable Full Screen Optimization in Task Manager:

Open the game > Press crtl+alt+del > Task Manager > Processes > Right Click Darktide > Properties > Compatability > Check mark "Dasable fullscreen optimizations" > Apply > OK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You can set the max working threads to = 4 in the game launcher.
