*THIS VIDEO IS BEST WATCHED ON A 4K DISPLAY AT 60 FRAMES PER SECOND
In this video, I'll show you how I fixed the weird motion stutter issues I was experiencing in Back 4 Blood on PC (as well as some other Unreal Engine 4 titles that suffer from the same issue). I'm not sure what exactly is causing these motion stutters, and it seems to be a somewhat common occurrence with some recent UE4 games. While the fix can be somewhat easy, it's not something that should happen be happening and hopefully, developers can be made aware of this issue.
