Recurring Client Performance Issues on PS5 - Potential memory freeing issue.
New, UrgentPublic

Description

Occurs on PS5, have not tested on PS4.

After a prolonged game session (normally over an hour), or after driving in a car for a long distance the player will begin to notice performance issues; including buildings taking a while to render, aswell as a low framerate. The longer the player plays for and the more cities the player visits the lower the framerate becomes, until the player must close the game completely and reopen it to fix the issue.

All of this points towards an issue with regards to memory freeing, as the performance issues are rectified by closing the game which resets the memory, as well as the fact that the issue is triggered by long sessions or by the player driving to lots of cities and other built up areas in a car.

Steps To Reproduce

Play DayZ on a PS5 and visit many cities. You will soon begin to notice deterioration in performance until the game either crashes or you must restart.

Additional Information

I tend to notice this occurring more the further in-land I am. By driving from Vavilovo to Novaya Petrovka and then to Severograd I had this issue occur and had to restart the game which fixed the problem.
