I know PC is a mess at the moment, but please don't neglect console performance. There are performance issues with framerate that should not happen on such powerful hardware, and also some slowdown bug later in the game. The multiplayer performance also needs to be smooth out also.
Absolutely have to get a response from them on it now, because it has gone from great, to ok usually, to near unplayable, to I think I have to give up on it, over the past week, as I have progressed through Chapter 4 on the PS5. It is even worse in Chapter 5.
Replying to further bump the post. About the karakuri, I figured the slowdown was because the map is retaining more and more "karakuri information/assets" the more you hunt. As another user pointed out.
It's not something that should be tanking the game so it's really stupid that that's happening. I'd be completely fine with the game destroying my basic karakuri after every hunt, if that's what'll do it.
But it really is unacceptable. Classic EA * out a game when it's clearly not ready, forcing the devs to release it.
It's such a good game but the optimization will forever tarnish its reputation.
I posted about this on reddit last week and it got downvoted into oblivion with remedials saying it worked fine on ps5
As they claimed to also “have 70 hours in the game and in chapter 5”
people lie so bad these days
So ya ch3 same thing. Started with mighties. Wasnt terrible but it was still bad.
ch4 lol forget it. Like 50%+ of a slo down. Add in end of ch4 rain and its like trying to stream the game over a 3g network with remote play
We powered through it > got to ch5 > deleted EVERYTHING on our maps. Player litter, buildings, the works, then and only then did fps go back to normal. Which is still no chance in heck 60 fps. 50s at best
The more I play this game, the more I love it. Still hoping that the team is doing their best to fix the slow down issues because it would be shame for a game this good to be marred by on-going performance issues on the PS5.
I saw this in the patch notes for the newest patch that states:
I haven't been able to play yet, but I'm hoping this fixed the slow motion bug that happens towards the laster chapter in the game.
I saw that reports that the recent patch addressed slowdown issues experienced on the PS5 in Chapter 4 onwards. If so, thanks so much to the devs for addressing that one quickly! I have yet to be able to try it though and won't be able to until tonight, to confirm whether or not I still experience it.
