Y'all think it's DX12 that's garbage, or UE5?
Certainly not a good look for the engine, but I'm wondering if DX12 is causing even more issues, because running in that mode makes every game released in the last five years perform poorly. Thoughts?

Probably both UE5 is very new so not much optimization and DX12 has always had problems to this day I've never had so many problems with DX11 or Valkin compared to DX12.

The issue with DX12 is that it offloads a lot of pipeline optimization to the developer side of things, no longer able to be de-facto multithreaded via API like the work Nvidia did on DX11.

no one listing their specs at all in any thread they just same game bad no run good.

Could you list them? Every game that gives the option I always run in DX11.

The game is great, but there's no denying it no run good.

It's almost like the Devs made a pinned post about the performance so yes there is in fact a problem just look up any benchmarks on youtube.

I heard unreal engine sucks overall

Yeah and there are more than enough posts about specs already. I know how my PC performs in Elden Ring, FF7R, God of War, etc, it should perform about the same here. If the game had a DX11 option, it very well might.

Currently Unreal5 is the most unoptimized engine. Paired with DX12.

Yea the only hope we have is a good fast patch after release in every other game at 3440x1440p I'm about 100+ in everything non RT this game I was mid 30s in a lot of the areas then other areas 60s then others 90s so something isn't right.

Let me guess: it's running great on your rig because you're using DLSS.

How'd I do?

This game is one of them.

Except the game ending the loading screen before it's really done loading (and causing low framerates for the first few seconds after load), the game runs fine. No major stuttering, no random loss of framerate while playing, nothing that would be indicative of poor optimization.

Anyone who is experiencing performance issues needs to lower their settings, upgrade their drivers, or upgrade their hardware. Plenty of people don't upgrade their hardware for a decade and expect the same machine to run modern games at max settings on their now-potato. That's not how it works.

Nah the game is just less optimized, not that bad, but could be better, RX 6600 XT + R7 5700 X, installed in SAMSUNG 970 EVO NVME M.2 EVO, and I barely can play on HIGH maintaining 60FPS in 1080P, Remnant 2 does look slightly better from Remnant 1 but its mainly the lighting and shadow effects, the rest is just foilage and details in the enviroment, still some area looks flat as the first game, back then I was using RX 470 (4GB) and I could run the game on HIGH 60FPS, now that I have RX 6600 XT, on MEDIUM too I expereience some drops, its 60FPS alright but not a smooth one, but that is maybe a DRIVER issue, oh don't tell me to use FSR, that thing makes my game looks uglier, 1080P is not meant to be upscalled IMO, its for 1440P and above, because in 1080P it loses alot of details and fidelity, so no.

But I do agree with you that hardware from the early 2016 users should upgrade and their RIG is obsolete AF.

All in all, game optimization could be better, but I doubt that, since its UE 5.2, although there is no LUMEN yet ! paired with DX12, well.. you know..
