Solution 1

Unreal Engine 4 is resource heavy. This means close down all programs (including web browsers) if you don't have an above average PC.

Solution 4

Posted by Dayzru on [forums.playbattlegrounds.com]:

"Looks like the workaround with setting the CPU cores affinity does work for me." Game ran smooth without any freezing for them as stated by Dayzru (on the BATTLEGROUNDS forums).

1: Press ctrl+alt+delete (or right click on the taskbar)

2: Open task manager

3: Make sure game is running, not just launcher.

4: Go to the tab "Processes" (for Windows 10 users, it's under "Details")

5: Find the one (or two) called something like "PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS or BATTLEGROUNDS."

6: Right click that one

7: Choose 'Set Affinity'

8: Uncheck CPU 3

9: Press OK. The game will now be working.
