Monster Hunter Wilds lags due to DLC - players have found an unexpected reason
Despite the success of the Monster Hunter series and high sales of Monster Hunter World in 2018, Monster Hunter Wilds has become a worrying signal for Capcom.
Since its release, the game has been accompanied by technical problems, including low performance on PC. Even after several major updates, the situation remains less than ideal.
It turned out that it's not just about optimization. A Reddit user reported that installing all cosmetic DLC significantly improves performance: instead of 20–25 FPS, the game consistently delivered more than 80 FPS. He cited frequent DLC availability checks as the reason. Given the volume of available content, the load on the PC may increase as new sets are released.
To confirm his findings, the user created a mod that "convinces" the game that all DLCs have been purchased without providing access to them. access. As a result, performance increased dramatically. He also published a comparison video and warned that he does not recommend using such modifications, having passed the collected information to Capcom support.
It is noted that emulating the presence of DLC gives even a higher result than their actual purchase. It is suggested that this data be treated with caution, but they may partially explain why Monster Hunter Wilds performance remains low.
