XCOM 2 stuttering in cutscenes if xbox gamepad is plugged.
Koopacabras Dec 20, 2019
I was experiencing heavy stutter in cutscenes (only, other parts it was fine). I searched the interwebs and came to this answer https://steamcommunity.com/app/268500/discussions/0/2860219962100914588/

and voila no more lag in the cutscenes. I don't know what the heck is the xbox driver doing, I even have xpad module blacklisted and use xboxdrv, really weird. alternatively you could just unplug the xbox controller.


Now I can play at max settings no stuttering in cutscenes.

Oh man, I was just wondering why they were so choppy when I played through WOTC; what a weird bug :B

That's really weird, did you email your findings to Feral?

I guess they already know because it happens with the windows version too.

emailed them now.

edit: got an answer they told me to disable some xbox setting in big picture mode, but it was already disabled. :S:
