Did they really make the graphics worse?

[KingGhostie]

I heard a rumor that when aternum came out they nerfed graphics for console players. Is that true? I wanted to give new world another try,but when I heard the graphics got turned down that turned me off.

Yes

It just looks worse than before and the AA being used is awful. Shimmering/Instability/Jaggies all over the place even at 1440p Native with no upscaling

That really sucks. I'll pass on new world then. Graphics was the best thing about new world,now they just give me a crappier version of it. No thank you.

Graphics are still good. DX12 support is In beta and last night this went from weirdly worse since relaunch to looking great again. I am not sure if they updated it but something suddenly changed for me.

Also some people are saying it is unstable but it hasn't crashed for me yet. As always peoples various PC builds means that user experience varies drastically.

Don't want good. I want what it had. New world was the best looking MMORPG out there,now they gave me a lesser version of what I paid for just cause of console players. That's basically giving PC players the middle finger if you ask me. We didn't ask for lesser graphics.

I can't tell the difference, still looks pretty to me.

The graphics look blurry to me. I have everything maxed out. I have no idea what they did but it definitely looks worse now.

[FletchuK]

Looks good to me

People have very short memories of the performance issues the game suffered from originally. All gone it would appear these days.

FPS graphics in a MMO is never really a good place to start from, given the option people crank up the visuals on their potato then complain it runs like a carrot when there is alot of player contention abound.

Meh Keep expectations real.

Try turning off FSR if you are using dx12 version, FSR makes the game look blurry.

Younger people these days just care about graphics more than gameplay *shrugs*
I'm on an RTX 4080, maxed out graphics @ 1440p and i think it looks great, could've been a bit better with some detaisl but it's well more than enough for an mmo for me

[Brahson]

yes they did but using nividia control panel helped making it look ok again, texture popup still a problem tho

[CerN]

People who think the graphics are worse haven't turned off dynamic resolution or FSR.

You still also need to do the old trick... Set graphic preset to low and then increase each setting. It looks just like it used to.

The models look all goofy now and the cut scenes look like they were made to run on PS2.

Can I roll a fatty yet or is it still generic wow strongman?
