An example of The Ascent hitching/stuttering, usually happens when entering new areas (not just loading into a fresh map) or going to places I haven't been to in a while. Since it can happen when just walking around it also happens during gunfights at times. Accidentally had the AMD counter showing over the FPS counter, but when the hitches happen the FPS tanks, so it's not just a visual bug.

Left the gameplay going longer to show it does smooth out, it's just the random times when it happens that are the problem.
