Improve Enlisted FPS on PC

Source-checked About 10 minutes

Answer

Start with Enlisted's Low or Bare Minimum graphics preset and use the same practice scene for every comparison. If FPS drops sharply in busy moments, switch the launcher to DirectX 12, select Temporal Super Resolution, and enable Dynamic Resolution with a sensible target. DirectX 12 alone is not an FPS boost, and dynamic resolution can soften the image, so compare each change before keeping it.

Check the current requirements

Compare the processor, memory, graphics card, DirectX version, and storage with the current Steam requirements. Begin with Bare Minimum if the PC is close to the minimum.

Use one practice scene

Choose the same practice area, weapon, camera turn, and effects-heavy moment for every comparison. Note the preset, renderer, resolution, and approximate FPS.

Select Bare Minimum or Low

Open Settings > Graphics and choose Bare Minimum or Low as a starting preset. Apply it and repeat the practice scene before raising any individual option.

Keep the image readable

Use the monitor's normal resolution first and reduce shadows, reflections, and other visible effects one step at a time. Stop before soldiers, terrain, or aiming details become difficult to identify.

Switch to DirectX 12 for newer tools

In the Enlisted launcher, use the renderer menu above Play to select DirectX 12 when you want to test FSR 2.0, Dynamic Resolution, or supported frame-generation features. Restart the game after changing the renderer; DirectX 12 by itself does not guarantee more FPS.

Configure Dynamic Resolution

In Graphics settings, select Temporal Super Resolution, turn on Dynamic Resolution, and choose an FPS target the PC can normally reach. Enlisted recommends this for obvious drops in demanding scenes; the game lowers resolution temporarily to protect that target.

Update and retest

Close heavy recording, browser, and download apps, install the current stable graphics driver, and restart Windows. Repeat the same practice scene and keep only changes that improve stability without making targets difficult to see.

Video walkthrough

If it does not work

  • If Dynamic Resolution makes the picture too soft, lower its FPS target or turn it off and keep the fixed Bare Minimum or Low preset.
  • DLSS Frame Generation requires supported NVIDIA hardware. Do not enable a copied driver override when the option is unavailable in Enlisted.
  • If players jump or shots register late while local animation stays smooth, check latency and the game server rather than lowering resolution again.
