15. Max Gibs

If you are afraid to go to a big raid because of all the objects that will collapse and cause your game to lag then don't worry.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

• Shortage of destroyed models when certain objects are demolished; clearer vision
• Increase in fps while raiding a base

14. Graphics Quality

This is very useful but you should be careful when using it, it can cause a game to crash if you change it too drastically.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

• Every graphics setting will be set to a minimum, but it's crucial for your fps

13. Water Quality

For a low budget PC it's recommended to always lower this setting, it will impact the game a lot.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

• Lower water quality, but high increase in fps

12. Water Reflections

Since we turned down water quality, we should do the same with water reflections, the outcome is the same.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

• Lower water quality, but high increase in fps

11. Shadow Quality

You should always keep this at a zero, if you want better performance.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

10. Shadow Cascades

Since we turned shadow quality, nothing will be significantly impacted.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

9. Draw Distance

I'm pretty sure everyone is familiar with this one.

Try to keep this at 600, in most cases higher than that is not needed.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

• You will see less around you, but those are mainly just unimportant details so it's worth sacrificing it for fps.

8. Tree Quality

If you keep this setting really low, you will gain an unfair advantage over other players.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

• Lower quality of trees, especially leaves, which can help you see your enemies if they try to hide behind them,
• Increase in fps

7. Grass Quality

This will help your performance, if you keep it too low it may not be that much beautiful, but your game will run smoother, and if there is less grass it will help you see items that are dropped on the ground.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

• Less detailed grass, or almost no grass
• Increase in fps

All objects and buildings will be less detailed, but it's a real game changer.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

Even if you have a good pc, lowering this one will make your game better.

By lowering this one you will achieve:

• Absence of blurriness in objects that are far from a player.
• Increase in fps

2. Motion Blur

It's a pretty unnecessary setting, use it if you like to play roleplay.
