OEAM terrible stutters on PS5 pro

Terrible stutters on PS5 Pro in West EU since other servers shut down. This is at 08.00 on a workday for folk in the UK. So I wonder if the servers are being overused at this hour.

The stutters now happen each time I take off and it wasn’t like this in December 25.

I am taking off from OEAM, a desert airport with few buildings and about 3 AI parked GA aircraft. The taxi stutters were today the worst I have experienced in the last few week or slightly longer.
Once in the air there are seemingly no stutters at 11,000ft either in or out of cockpit en route to OYBD. Scenery wasn’t popping at least at time of report.

Same over here. I am still on vacation and wanted to play a bit, while it’s working time for us here in Germany. Extreme load times and stutters on PS5. So no explanation why the servers could be over-used in that moment. I just wanted to use the vacations a bit, before work starts for me again next week. It did not seem to depend on the departure airport.

I read in another thread that they had shut down 2 servers. 1 in N EU and 1 in US. Not sure why MS did this as an explanation has not been given. So basically those that used those servers have had to switch to another.
This is possibly the source of the stuttering on PS5 :person_shrugging:

Had the same situation on monday and tuesday morning.

Hi,

I noticed these stutters to when starting a mission. Sometimes, not always. After take off they disappear. On airports where this happens I noticed something strange. The marker that shows the initial climb says it is more than 3 million miles away. So whenever this crazy distance marker is there the stutters appear when I enter the runway. Sometimes sooner.

Can you guys check if that is the same at your end?

I haven’t had that but some others have in pc version. It’s an old bug.
