The same game (DESTINY 2) lags when I press any key

Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

Please try the following fixes.

STEP 1: press Win + R on your keyboard, this will display Run input window

STEP 2: paste or type %appdata%\Bungie\DestinyPC\prefs

STEP 3: open CVARS.xml file in notepad, CVARS.old leave untouched

STEP 4: in the CVARS.xml file, find a line that says <cvar name="low latency mode" value=1 />

STEP 5: change the value of 1 to 0, just by replacing the number

STEP 6: save the file

What does it do? Low latency mode is a new game engine feature, from Nvidia called "Nvidia Reflex".

It's made to reduce input lag, by reducing rendered frames queue.

It makes the CPU and GPU to work very hard and creates insane load, that can lead to massive frame drops, and game instability.

This fix should provide better experience with higher and more stable frame rate.

If that isn't enough, try capping your framerate to lower, fps cap should be in range that you can always maintain. This helps in reducing lag and stutters. Also your hardware won't work as hard.

Hope this helps

1. it will most likely be running in windowed borderless, see if you can change to fullscreen only.

2. even though you get access to the dlc, forsaken dlc and alot of other content is going to be vaulted in january so that stuff will no longer be available in game, and gamepass will not give you access to the new dlc "witchqueen" in january.

3. since going f2p the game is trash and is only going to get worse. the windows store version is pretty much locked down so you can't even ghange config files to alter performance either.

This might be game dependent.

I have a Xbox One controller connected to my PC, and I can seamlessly change from keyboard and mouse to controller and back in Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 for example.

When I wiggle the mouse in Sea of Thieves or Destiny 2, the game immediately switches the interaction prompts from controller buttons being displayed to actual keyboard keys, and if I move the controller, the game switches from "Press (keyboard key) F" to
"Press (Xbox Button X)" for example.

So it might be the game itself not allowing you to switch to mouse seamlessly. Are you able to go to the game settings and force the game to use your preferred input method?
