Inflexion Games also offers some useful suggestions and tips to get the most out of Nightingale when you’ are’re playing, so let’s take a look at a few of these pointers. 

  • Make sure your drivers are fully updated, especially your graphics card. 
  • Pause VPNs while you play, as they can delay or interrupt server connections. 
  • Install the game on an SSD to allow for quicker access to data and ensure continuous communication with servers. 
  • Play on a lower screen resolution if you need to. 
  • Switch on performance boost options, such as those offered by Nvidia, Intel, and AMD. 
  • Limit any other applications that might be playing in the background. 
  • Turn on frame generation, as it can improve the frame rate of your game by up to 80 percent.
  • Make sure your PC doesn’t overheat by keeping the internals clean, making sure the thermal paste has not degraded, and ensuring it is kept in a case and/or area that is well-ventilated.
