Helldivers 2 low FPS or graphics problems
Poor performance or broken textures on PC
The game runs slowly, or textures and graphics look wrong. Arrowhead names old drivers and damaged files as common causes.
How to fix it
Check that your PC meets the minimum requirements.
Update all drivers, including graphics, motherboard and network.
Verify the game files in Steam under Properties > Installed Files.
Delete the contents of the Arrowhead folder in %appdata%.
Try turning Async Compute on or off.
If nothing helps, uninstall and reinstall the game.
