In Black Desert Online (BDO), the game is capped at 60 FPS by default, but there are ways to unlock or increase this limit depending on your setup. Heres what you need to know: How to Remove/Increase the 60 FPS Cap in BDO Enable "High FPS Mode" in Settings - Open BDOs in-game Settings (ESC Settings). - Go to Performance Optimization. - Check "High FPS Mode" (this allows the game to exceed 60 FPS if your hardware supports it). Disable V-Sync - In the same Settings Performance menu, make sure V-Sync is turned OFF (it can cap FPS to your monitor's refresh rate). Use Fullscreen Mode (Not Windowed/Fullscreen Windowed) - Some players report higher FPS in exclusive Fullscreen mode (Windowed modes may enforce vsync). NVIDIA/AMD Control Panel Settings - NVIDIA: - Open NVIDIA Control Panel Manage 3D Settings Program Settings Select BDO. - Set "Vertical Sync" to Off. - Enable "Preferred Refresh Rate" Highest Available. - AMD: - Open AMD Radeon Settings Games BDO. - Disable "Wait for Vertical Refresh" (or set to "Off, unless application specifies"). Edit BDOs Configuration File (Advanced) - Navigate to: - Find the line: - Change it to your desired FPS (e.g., fpsLimit = 144). - Save the file and set it to Read-Only (to prevent the game from resetting it). Use Third-Party Tools (At Your Own Risk) - Some players use RivaTuner Statistics Server (RTSS) to cap/unlock FPS. - Warning: Unauthorized third-party tools may trigger anti-cheat flags. Why Is BDO Capped at 60 FPS? The default cap is for stability, as BDO is CPU-intensive. Unlocking FPS can cause higher temperatures and inconsistent performance in crowded areas. Some animations (like horse riding) are tied to FPS, causing weird behavior at very high FPS. Expected Results If your monitor supports 120Hz/144Hz/240Hz, you should see smoother gameplay after unlocking. In sieges/node wars, FPS may still drop due to server/CPU limitations. Would you like help optimizing BDO further for performance?

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
