No micro freezes but crazy warps

Saw a plane go into the ground and back out last night

Crappy internet connections will be the death to these online games

Without a solid connection for you and your target the game is not playable

Yes it’s been happening to me for about 2 weeks now.

I’ve been getting disconnected, or kicked to desktop a lot more frequently as well, that part is probably just my internet. It can be spotty sometimes.

Don't need to wash your hands if you got a clean hose.

Anyways, back to topic, I've had the freezes too. I know its DirectX related, and seems to happen whenever I update my Graphics Card's drivers... maybe?

Historically I've noticed microfreezes/lag has often been related to audio driver issues.

Is that why I get freezes using the mic?
They're casting their bait over there, see?

OK what I found is this. Oculus have two drivers showing:

 - Microphone (Rift Audio)
 - Microphone (Oculus Virtual Audio Device)

Every time I get an Oculus update it switches to the Virtual Audio Device driver. This causes micro stutters and my mic stops working. When I force it back to (Rift Audio) it solved the issue for me.

IIRC I had to do it for speakers as well. I no longer use the Rift headphone as my right side headphone doesn't work (I use bluetooth headphones now).

I've been getting the jitters lately too and while I usually just disable the virtual audio device entirely as I use Mantis headphones on my RiftS, I haven't even checked it was there the least couple of updates. Probably because I've been checking to see if my audio prefs have been changed in OBS after an oculus update and saw they haven't. Usually an oculus update does this and ends up muting my recordings. I'll give that a look when I can get to my PC. Bet that's it too!
