Try turn down you gfx settings maybe? I see you got an onboard gfx card. Maybe you can allocate it more memory in your BIOS? Im just thinking the dmg gfx may psuh the card casuing your machine to lag.

This is a problem that always occurs the first time I take damage. I've heard it from other people as well. Afterwards there's no problem whatsoever.

I think this did not happen previously because the bleed effect seemed to be applied when you entered a game. Would it be possible to make it once more that the bleed effect is applied when you join a game to fix this?

The only explanation for this we can think of is that your system is struggling when first time loading the bleed effect textures. After that it probably stays in GPU memory as its used rather frequently. We will try to optimize those texture to load faster.

Ok, thanks! That should fix it.
