Even if your Voice Chat settings are usually set to Friends Only, it’s worth double-checking again. According to some users, Season 3 has reset many of their settings to the default, which would include Voice Chat being set to All Lobby.

As user xTSH reports in the comment above, the low FPS issue is more prevalent for those playing on Al Mazrah in Warzone 2, due to the number of people in the game who have Voice Chat enabled.

And while FPS does seem to approve as more people get eliminated and leave, game modes like the new Massive Resurgence are notorious for causing frame drops.

Of course, changing Voice Chat from All Lobby to Friends or even Party Only will mean that you no longer get access to Proximity Chat in Warzone 2.

But trading hearing enemies in-game for a significant boost to your frame rate isn’t the worst option.
