Graphics are worse than SE 4's
Shame, tested all settings, jaggy, blurry, at least add TAA...

The visuals have improved, as expected, and the overall gameplay is still there... However, to transition to open-world maps, only to make them more linear than SE4's offerings, is a pooch-screwer; and the audio of handguns is rather meh (the real sounds of such weapons, whatever they are, notwithstanding); the take-downs seemed to have taken a hit, also. That, and the lack of day-night transitions (which could give great variety to gameplay, and without the need for actual content additions / whole, new maps), nor any dynamic weather effects, really shows the age of the ye olde "Ashura" game engine.

For me, the biggest downers are:
- not enough environmental interactivity, such as interactable doors and windows
- removal of crouched jog
- climbing logic is still on a per-interactable basis (making it inherently limited), rather than being more organic
- playable roster looks rather meh -- want some black clothed SS and Allied special forces archetypes / caricatures, not only variations on generic grunts (a half-dozen unique characters >>> a hundred generics)
- the existence of "invisible walls" on purportedly open-world maps'
- "Invasions" inexplicably restricted to randoms / non-friends only

Overall, the game looks well playable and worth a buy; just not in a "FOMO" kind of way.

I'm playing on 1080p, maybe that's the reason for the bad graphics. Some patch for 1080p clean visuals would be nice..

This guy did the job for you, but yeah, 5 is not worse than 4's. Not by a long shot.
That`s xbox

That's not how it works. LOL

If you want better graphics then upgrade your GPU and or Monitor.

That means a higher tier, more powerful Graphics card with more memory.

Something mid range, or upper mid range.

Like a Radeon RX 6700.

I believe it's not my PC, because those are the requirements (recommended) and my RIG has I7, DX 12 GPU with 8 GB VRAM and 16 GB RAM.

Intel CPU Core i5-8400 or equivalent
16 GB памет
GPU DirectX12 capable GPU with 6GB VRAM

There is note about performance issues with the game Rebellion said, so NO, i'm not buying new component, just because the game is not optimized properly.

Like I said recommended is just that... That's actually the recommended MIN to play the game.

That doesn't mean optimal.

Don't expect an outdated low end GPU to perform well on newer games.

You really don't have a leg to stand on here.

If your GPU was newer and mid range or higher end then yeah, but it's not so.

Bottom line is the GPU is outdated AND LOW END.

You need to upgrade it.

It is your hardware that is the issue here.

You can try all you want to find excuses, but in the end and the issue always will be your GPU.

Don't forget CPU bottlenecking better CPU can help a bunch to

Well yes, I know.

No CPU bottle necking in this case, the GPU is low end.

I was focusing on the most obvious issue in this case, the GPU is a joke really it's so low end and out of date. Struggling with 1080p.. Yeah it's bad.

And also the reason why I recommended going with a mid range GPU.

I mean even a GTX 1080Ti can play SE5 at 4K on Ultra settings and we know how old that is. LOL

So the OP is having issues at 1080p and is not buying the GPU is the issue here?

Seriously?

The RX 570 was low end 5 years ago when it came out and buying THAT in itself was a mistake.

Ideally one needs to go with at the min a good solid mid range GPU when they buy one. And that means a current mid range GPU if they really want to get some good life out of it.

If one has to play with the settings at 1080P then they need to get a new GPU.

Having 70+ FPS while playing the game is not bad GPU performance I think, but the textures being dot like sharp and blurry, flickery while moving is the issue. IF SE 5 was 1440 p designed to be played on ultra, then I see why it's having bad textures, but playing SE 4 for example with medium graphics makes the game run smooth as butter, visually clean,here on medium it's still flickery, blurry, like the graphical settings /tweaking make it worse. Switching resolution ingame has no effect on FPS at all, so playing on 1080p is fine, but the graphics are not clean and smooth. Anyway. FPS is fine, but graphics quality below 1440p seems ugly..

It's not my GPU the problem, it's the game. Mission 4 and 8 have super clean looking textures. Day missions are not having good textures, that's the issue. GPU is fine.

We get it, you don't want to spend any money more than that budget GPU that is 5 years old.

That however will not change any sort of outcome.

Or solve anything.

Like I said before excuses are just that, excuses.

And you can tell yourself anything, but it doesn't make it true.

A new GPU is the solution to your issue. Either you want to fix it or not.

Your choice here.

...? what? He shows you right at the start of the video, both games are on PC at 4k reso and max settings.

Yeah, it's on PC for sure. Good video.

There is a rather large difference in graphics quality for sure.

The graphics look great

Well, I have no complaints on this one!

I have a very high end machine (See my profile for hardware specs) and the graphics are fabulous on Ultra
