Re: NFS Heat Bad Graphics?

@OperatorHesh yeah I highly agree with you. The graphics should be way better. If they remove the chromatic abberation, sharpening and filmgrain the game already looks miles better. They should also improve the anti aliasing. FXAA does nothing and the sharpening makes the aliasing more aparent. TAA kinda works but it leaves aliasing present whilst being blurry and having ugly trailing artifacts. The game assets take almost a full minute to load in completely. It is a big mess. The game has more issues tho, but I am not gonna mention that since this is only talking about the graphics.

    Yeah, man @Sjonny30 I hope they have plans on improving the graphics. The NFS from 2015 is even worse than this graphics-wise, but they never fixed it, so im lowkey scared lol

    @OperatorHesh Atleast you were able to disable some postfx in the previous need for speed games I have seen. With this game there is no way for us players to disable them. Only thing I have seen is that shader effect mod which ruins the games look even more.

    Agreed to all.  I have a GTX2060 and am playing in 1080...so my graphics card is well beyond the capability of this game’s current settings, but the aliasing and graininess artifacts in this game make me feel like I’m playing in 800x600.  Even NFS whatever, from 5 years ago, with a GTX1060i in this same PC, looks light years better visually.  How is this even possible in 2020????  (Or, Nov. 2019)?  It’s like they completely broke the game.  What, did they hurry the release and use low res models & textures just to push it out the door???   My first 20 minute impression, in spite of my high hopes, was that this game is total garbage.  It’s pretty awful.  I bought it on sale for $20.00 and I am absolutely positive that I should have bought Anthem instead...especially since it was $8.00!  But I’ve been a NFS fan since the 1990’s and gave them the benefit of the doubt.  Boy did I make a mistake! This game looks like s**t!

    Roger that man; thanks @Sjonny30 I’ll save my $8.00. I had wondered why Anthem died a quick death...seems apparent now.  Bummer.
