Micro stutter when firing MG34

[stray cat]

When firing automatic weapons, there is a "micro stutter" dropping fps right after the first shot, which makes the weapons useless. Happens on the MG34, PPSH41 (oddly not on every map and it seems to happen more often on fuller servers).

This still persists after the latest patch.
I tried messing without audio channels on low and 128 but nothing fixes it.
Any suggestions?

This happens to me too on Pavlov's house, and Station, but in my case I belive it's ping related, as it only happens on medium/high ping servers. Don't know if it's your case.

I think it is related to amount of players on server. Not ping.
I get this stutter whenever I am on populated servers even with low pings (80ms). Usually more than 10 people. If I am on aserver with very few people there is no stutter at all.
And it seems to affect weapons that fire faster than a DP28 for example. Because I get no stutter on it. But a lot of it on MG34 and PPSh41.

Oddly enough I do not get any stutter on stationary Mg34

I would like to bump this to see wether someone else is having this issue too.

I always had this type of problem. Especially on station. Everything is okay until an enemy appears and we exchange fire - then the FPS tends to drop right as it is needed the most - and the weapon seems to have issues with hitting anything - maybe the RPM of the weapon can't be higher than the framerate? This is one of the major reasons I avoid CQB; these issues barely occur when at medium or long range and with slower firing weapons. MG-34 has been OK during these circumstances despite the high RPM.

Firefight slowdowns (otherwise) can be helped by turning down the FX quality to medium or low. Did testing when firing into objects - the dust and spray of stuff from the impact can be demanding when many shots hit in succession.

Happens to me as well

I thought it was just my imagination with the MG34 but it seems that it's indeed a glitch.

Tried turning down fx setting. Did not change anything. I observed however that it seems to be less noticable to not existant on low populated servers.
Could a developer check in and tell wether this issue is on the radar?

I have this issues too. It makes the game unplayable. But yes, it does seem to only occur on high populated servers.

Is this issue on the list at TWI? Kind of sucks because I can not use the PPSH41 on larger servers with it.

I get this too and during arty strikes. Its sound related and there are plenty of posts about it so browse and read a few. Here is one:
