the game does not start and has poor optimization

[bojson88]

Hello, after several updates (which didn't change anything in the game), I was experiencing massive lag.
My FPS dropped by 50%, and today when I tried to launch the game, it kept crashing. Does anyone know how to fix this bug?

Hello! It seems like a typical case when after updates something breaks not in the game itself, but in the settings or drivers.
First, I would check the video card driver - sometimes new versions work worse than previous ones. If you recently updated, try rolling back. It is also worth checking if the graphics settings in the game have not been reset (sometimes after patches they are set to maximum, which gives strong FPS drops).
Another common point is the cache and game files. If it is Steam or another platform, do a file integrity check. Damaged or conflicting files after an update are a very common cause of freezes.
