I am getting TERRIBLE pop-in. Been playing well since release and have no real complaints.This new patch comes out and my draw distance and anything not immediately infront of me has a high chance of not being there. Walk a few steps then a whole mountain will appear. Walk another few steps then a pole will appear.Everything is on ULTRA on a 970 gtx. I've tried high as well same thing. Edit:This tool helps but does not get rid of issue [just fixes the pop in at close ranges] and needs to be reset each map change.http://www.bfcinematictools.com/dai/Follow instructions in readmeMisc. -> Increase LOD Distance

The patch pretty much destroyed my ability to play, first the textures and issues with my elf losing all her features. Added in the workaround but graphics still look stripped. Now the game is tanking and jerking oddly. WTH did they do in this patch? And why isn't there an option to roll back if the patch makes matters worse?

The new patch has made it unplayable for me. I'm getting massive pop-in with buildings and mountains appearing from thin air 10-20 feet infront of me and black and see-through holes that flicker constantly.It was running near-perfect before the patch on High/Ultra with a GTX 780 ti.

Feature LOLCAN SOMEONE AT EA/BIOWARE PLEASE COMMENT ON THISYou ride a mount into the distance and everything is popping in and changing all around you constantly.Ironically, I was commenting the day before the patch to my wife how i never see any popin and how great the game looks, then the patch hits and it looks like a train wreck. Why no comment from anyone? why not just say "We've noted this concern and are looking into it" it makes the game so butt ugly D:

Wait...that's not supposed to happen? Characters popping up and sometimes an area needing a couple seconds to load has been happening for me since day one...and also happens in most other games I've played.

i have the same problem, everything on ultra on a 295x2 and before the patch i didnt see any pop in and it was great, now theres a small ring around my character where flora appears etc and when i run around theres a line of pop in around him, it sucks, i wish i could unpatch because i didnt have any issues before and now textures etc all look worse and theres hideous pop-in D:

Same problem. Everything was fine until yesterdays patch. Now stuff keeps appearing out of nowhere right in front of my face. Especially flowers and some other flora is only rendered in a very small area around the inquisitor. Also, if I stand still and move the camera quickly, all flowers disappear, and then reappear when I stop the camera again. Not being able to see stuff makes the game basically unplayable, which is a shame because I enjoyed it immensely until yesterday.
I'm using a radeon 290 and mantle, but I guess it's not amd/mantle related since the op is using an nvidia card.

I'm having the same problems after the patch. The hotfix hasn't changed anything. ☹️

Confirming, hotfix didn't fix popin issue. Please give option to rollback to before patch, it just sucks because the game used to look really nice and now the pop in is ruining it for me.
