With these settings, players should see a slight bump to their FPS. Their game should also look roughly the same in terms of visuals. Our settings also include possible fixes to stuttering and weapon camos looking dull, especially Gold. However, if players don’t care about how their game looks, they can reduce most of the settings to their lowest value. We suggest leaving both Shader Quality and Spot Cache on their recommended value, though.
