PC: FPS drops at Islands

    I noticed that on some islands, the framerate of constant 60fps drops down to 30fps.
    This usually happens when it is dusk or night mostly when many light sources or waterfalls are visible.
    It seems to have something to do with the shadows and lights.
    Lowering the Graphicsettings from legendary to damned produce no changes, it drops to 30 fps regardless of the Graphics quality

    I think this error occurs since version 1.06 /1.07.
    Before that i had a constant 60 fps everywhere in every situation on legendary settings.

    Running:
    GPU: Nvidia GTX 1060 OC 6GB
    CPU: i7 5820k @4.2 ghz
    RAM: 16 GB

    Yes, this issue has been happening for many since patch 1.04. Seems like Rare is focused on only optimizing the xbox version of the game because they have done nothing about this issue and many have been reporting it for months.

    Thankfully this:

    Performance Improvements
    Further improvements to frame rate when streaming islands.
    Improvement to frame rate when player is walking or running.
    Multiple server and client crash fixes.
    Further improvements and optimisations for all platforms are ongoing.

    As noted Here.
