Drops in FPS every time you fire your guns would only add oil to the fire, in our opinion. Better to face your ire a little longer for not releasing the patch than to face the outrage when the long-awaited beta is imperfect.
I know it may be totally unrelated but in the DCS series some types of micro stuttering is cause by intel speedstep tecnology. Only fix for certain systems is to disable it in the BIOS....

Early releases of DCS:WH BETA had the exact same problem of firing the gun causing FPS drop/stuttering(not related to speed step). It could be you guys are dealing with a similar issue.

Anyways thanks for the update. Good luck on squashing the final bugs.
