I've lowered all the settings to "Low" and changed the resolution to 900p just to maintain 60 fps.
1070ti + R7 5800x @ 4.8GHz on a Gen 4 m.2 ssd.
With consoles constantly blurring the lines with PC performance it's strange to see such a lousy port. You're better then this From, don't Cyberpunk yourself please.
Genuinely… Noticed nothing after 10 hours but I'm playing only on PS5. Massively appreciated your honesty. If the game suffers it suffers. Still gonna love and share your reviews xx Big loves
It's kinda baffling to me that nobody talks about the xbox calibration patch issue. Lots of ppl all over the world especially on Xbox cant play online cuz they are on 1.02 instead of 1.02.1 since launch none of these people can play online. Other games would have beeen roasted to the ground for this but I guess with Elden Ring stuff like that is completely fine
Wait for a sale? Are you mad. Maybe don't play PC hahahahahaha not always better cause they are bottom of the barrel in priority. Lol
I bought this game from green man gaming and I have waited to start playing until these bugs are fixed!
Honestly had to get a refund on XBSX. Framerate is too unstable, also figured since its open world that it would be a bit different that previous games but it's Dark Souls 3 on an extreme scale, it's nothing profound imo. Also to touch up on my first point, idk how it isn't locked at at least 60 fps. Hopefully the patches fix it but it's definitely a bummer.
ain't nobody cares why you lowered the score elden ring is the best game that has come out in a century
It's still playable… this is why we stuck as a society
Digital Foundry agrees that the PC performance is inadequate. If I ever played it'll be on series X I'm curious to see how it runs on there.
The performance hiccups I've had at I7 8700 32gihs of ram and a 1660super have been negligible. The locked frame rate is due to pop. Unlocking would give better faster machines an edge
Hey ACG Bro,
They just released 1.002 on PS5 and even in quality mode, the game is very fluid now. Let me know what you think about it. Cheers mate.
PS : loading time seem faster as well.
From software: "Don't you guy's have modders??"
Works fine on my PS5. Master race indeed. 😂
Maybe they should reroll to the previous patch while they work on 1.03. The micro stutters right now are horrendous.
The performance should not have anything to do with the hard-drive. I'm actually playing on a 7200 rpm non-ssd hdd and I get the same micro-stutterings that I see everyone else get. I felt that disabling online-play helped somewhat. Also, I don't really play games for more than 2 hours straight
using nvidia driver ver 511.65 actually reduce stuttering and lag/freeze,while using the latest driver 511.79 make the things far worse from what i saw with my testing.
I can't load this video..
I'm sad that PC players are having issues but i'm playing on PS5 and i'm having a great time with no issues so far. So I feel your title of the video should state the PC version as the issues PC players are having do not affect the PS5 version. I can't speak for xbox as I don't have that console.
Who cares you're just milking drama. I lost all respect for you.
Nothing but respect
The pop-in is dreadful in those fields. Wth From
‘wait for sale’. this game isn’t even worth full-price lol.
Respect, however I have had no issues on PS4 with 13 hours in. I have only 1 complaint and it's the same one I've had since DS1…. collision. Nothing gets me aggro like using the environment as a tactic only to get wrecked through said environment lol.
Playing on an NVIDIA RTX 3070 – the game is very smooth and polished for me, for the most part. Now and then I do get some hitches and slow down, but 95% of the time it's smooth as that girl's butt cheeks that you can never forget about. Play Elden Ring, find out for yourself how good your setup is for it – you're gonna love it.
I personally have not had an performance issues; on this patch or the last. However, I also have not yet installed the latest Nvidia driver that is theoretically optimized for the game. I don't want to draw any conclusions from this, but I thought I would mention it in case someone wanted to investigate further.
This is PC only. PS5 this game is borderline flawless.
Thanks for updating this. I have the latest Alder lake and a 3080TI and it struggles every few minutes especially the part where you reach the capital city which is very graphical intensive.
I’m glad that you’re just not being dismissive of the game. I’ve seen some YouTube folk just dump on it. It’s okay to not like the game and to say you don’t like it. It seems like some people are just beside themselves with those who do enjoy it and that really turns me off.
Doesn't run much better on ps5 either
there's 900,000 people playing on steam alone, do you really think your review or what you suggest actually matters? Nope lmao. Youtubers take themselves too seriously.
I upgraded my PC two days before Elden Ring, and I'm able to get 120fps in most areas. The open world needs optimization
And IGN gave this a 10 smh lol
I created a patreon account just for ACG. Best few bucks a month I spend every month.
I don’t have too big stutters, but enough to be disturbing in chaotic fights. And there was a line in the response from the developers which felt bad. It was a line something like “we recommend getting better hardware”. Uhm… getting new graphics card today is pretty hard. Most people can’t afford something like this, just to play your game. Developers should focus, that their game is accessible for a wide audience and enjoyable. Not forcing them to buy new hardware.
finally someone came to say this
How about delete your original review and return the from soft check
I turned off DOF, BLUR, and switched to Borderless full-screen, and the stuttering and FPS hit was drastically reduced. I'm have a blast playing it. I do feel a little disappointed that there are the perfamnce issues that seem to be a reoccurring theme with games these days, but the story, artistic direction the game has is awesome.
I feel bad for anyone who is playing on PC. I haven’t experienced any issues on PS5 and this game is absolutely incredible. I hope that this stuff gets fixed soon so that everyone can experience this game in its full glory.
Anyone had improved fps and less stutter with Unlimited shader cache on Nvidia cards?
Massive respect for you for doing this. Stutters have been pretty few and far in between for me but it seems pretty bad for others. I'll still be enjoying the game and I hope From gets on top of those issues ASAP
I don’t have any problems 😏
When is the sale
thats why i preordered the game. you're all dishonest, couldve ran it on a few platforms even ps5 is buggy
Thanks for the update! I had it already pre-ordered sadly but I appreciate your honesty. Let's hope they improve it because I have an RTX 3070 and Ryzen 7 2700x. It doesn't matter what the settings are. Sometimes it maintains 60 FPS but other times it randomly drops to 20 FPS.
If there's any other base PS4 players lurking here that are now concerned about ER's performance on their ancient machine, I'd just like to say this; I'm 20+ hours in and performance seems pretty damn good to me. Framerate dips cocassionally, but what do you expect? If you enjoyed Sekiro, Bloodborne, DS3, etc. on PS4, no worries, you'll love this too.
