Darktide Audio Clipping Since Penance Update

[@vicogmir]

Got exactly the same but after a second or 2 additional frame drops too. Sadly whole team of mine have this problem. For now we got helldivers but would be nice to play this game again in future.

For anyone coming to this vid not from the fatshark forum, Hello, thanks for the reply, I have changed: use_blocking_io = true :arrow_right: use_blocking_io = false in the file SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Warhammer 40,000 DARKTIDE\bundle\application_settings\settings_common.ini I will update the main post and reply after testing. EDIT: This change has mostly fixed the stuttering issue, I did notice one or two very short instances of audio dropout during a very busy maelstrom mission but so far the playing experience is vastly improved. Related to this dev post: another thing you could try is in game files you find the file settings_common.ini with the setting use_blocking_io = true, set this to false. This will be the default in the future, so currently it’s quite untested. But it could help If you can please try it out with direct storage and let us know if it improves anything. can i ask if your SSD is connected with m2, SATA or some other interface?
