Frame drop/freezing when switching to iron sights/scopes
New, ImmediatePublic

Description

Whenever you try to switch to iron sights/scope in first person, the game will freeze for about 2 seconds which can cause a lot of problems if in a gun fight. This happens every single time I switch to my iron sights/scope on a weapon so it’s a pretty big issue.

Just ADS and you’ll see the freeze, I don’t know if it’s the game loading in through the sights or whatever it is.

It also does this (at least for me) when you double L1 and zoom that way, I believe it's just the system loading the far off distant textures/trees/grass etc etc for you as the render distance is very very small for a good amount of things which then gets rendered when you ADS.. -shrugs- at least that seems to be the case for me, it is fairly annoying though especially in a gun fight.

Do your scopes not render in for a little bit as well I’m having trouble with my scopes being completely grey and not even see through

@G-iceman_22 every now and then yeah, it's annoying but I just rescope and it fixes itself
