Increasing Wild Hearts PC FPS

If you’re playing Wild Hearts on PC and are having framerate or FPS issues, then an interesting fix seems to have been found by a player on Steam. According to Ryan Johnson, after they downloaded the game on medium and high settings, they noticed that their framerate wasn’t matching up to the 60 FPS that their overlay stated it was.

Instead, it apparently felt more like 20 frames, which has been a common complaint from a lot of Wild Hearts PC players. Interestingly enough, they were able to fix the issue by switching over their audio settings from the default stereo to 5.1 and 7.1.

More comments suggested this worked for them as well. If this fix doesn’t work for you, we’ve got other solutions below.

The process of increasing frame rate in Wild Hearts is a relatively straightforward one, with an emphasis on reduction. Tuning the following graphics settings should lead to a boost in performance. They are as follows:

  • Graphics: Switch to Medium or Low
  • Ambient Occlusion: Reduce
  • Anti-Aliasing: Reduce
  • Clouds: Reduce
  • Particle Effects: Off
  • Reflections: Reduce
  • Shadows: Reduce

Of course, it’s important to always keep in mind both the minimum and recommended system requirements for Wild Hearts. Per EA, they are as follows:
