A particle-and-CPU-heavy co-op shooter where intense firefights tank frame rate. On an RTX 4060 at 1080p, cutting Particle Quality, Reflections, and Volumetrics yields big gains and holds 60+ even during chaotic bug breaches. DLSS Quality adds headroom (the engine uses a custom AutoSR/Stingray renderer).

Notes
pcoptimizedsettings: RTX 4060 gets 60+ at native 1080p (lows ~49). Highest-impact cuts: Particle Quality -> Lowest (+7%, and it creates massive CPU load - high particles can crater FPS from 100+ to under 30 in big fights); Reflections -> Low (+10%); Volumetric Fog + Cloud -> Lowest (+10%); Shadow Quality -> Medium (+5%). Use DLSS Quality (~25-35% gain at 1080p) - that headroom lets you bump Particles back up one tier. Intense Terminid/Automaton swarms are the worst case, so tune for those, not the calm moments.Hardware
