Monster Hunter Wilds fans are asking Capcom for answers after one player seemed to discover that PC performance is dictated by the number of DLCs a user has.
It’s a shame. The game used to run really well on my Linux PC and I reached HR 280. A recent (a month or two ago) update completely fucked it up for me and it’s a pain to hunt now. I doubt they’re ever gonna fix Wilds 💀
(Sadly on Windows) The same happened to me. Decent performance around release, later updates messed it all up. That said I think the latest update did make it run better than ever on my machine, but obviously YMMV.
I do think they’re working on it, they just seem to be lost? It should be a big deal for Capcom if Monster Hunter loses popularity due to performance.
It’s a pretty basic Lua-based workaround, but it works. It won’t be long before some properly patches out this behavior, but unfortunately you’ll still need reframework for the injection to work due to Capcom anti-tamper.

I played it at launch and couldn’t get above 26 fps on lowest settings. That’s with constant stutters btw
I’m not playing it until I can at least hit a consistent 30

I was sort of waiting to get back into it until after the December (?) performance patch - sounds like that hasn’t arrived/helped? 😩
Unfortunately it seems very much a mixed bag. For some the more recent patches did a lot, for others they broke things.
Is the community able to reproduce it? Does anybody know?
Word is Digital Foundry in touch with the modder and will be running some tests.
There’s already a mod on NexusMods, check latest mods. Steam DLC unlockers exist, as well, if you’re willing to go dow that route.
Worth noting that the person who originally reported this says the mod isn’t ideal and warns against using it.

Valve has started cracking down on DLC Unlockers: https://sh.itjust.works/post/20823476
I think it only matters for online games /w anti cheat still?
