Performance and Optimization Gone to Hell 😞

I have an i9 3.7GHz, 64 GB RAM, NVMe M.2 SSD, and an Asus Strix OC RTX 4090 24GB GDDR6.

The game automatically set many video settings to low. I switched everything back to ultra, and well... In the first prologue scene, right after the archer kills the guard, the animation lags. The arrow flying, the guard falling — everything is laggy and in slow motion. Wow, that’s terrible.

You're telling me one update can kill the game on a high-end PC? That’s seriously concerning.

Any updates on this? Are you guys making optimization the top priority — like, yesterday?

Thanks!

I had exactly the same experience with the same hardware.

I'm currently running on RX 9070 XT and with this game the gpu is going insane with temps. FPS is also pretty low for such graphics and ugly character models. I don't have such issues with Monster Hunter Wilds and that game is a hot mess.

After playing for several hours yesterday I tried playing today, first to face a big update which never finished and now I get an error saying I don't have the executable in my disk.

the game seem to be Shield mage for the win as others as pointed. We should prolly get a bit more attribute and skill points per level. Like maybe 3 attributes per 2 level and 2 skill per level. And/or some kind of balancing should be done on stam consomption. Multiple attackers kills you freaking fast.

Caradoc does not speak to me during the tutorial (Where I am supposed to meet him deeper into the dungeon).
I just cleared the 2 mini bosses before I met him. Now I can't proceed.

what the hell happened to sneak? i remember playing a few month ago, and with thief class selected at start had no problem sneaking up on red priests in the beginning. Now stealth seems completely worthless - enemies detect you INSTANTLY with their back turned. I spent half an hour grinding to level 45 - and it made no visible differences.

Additionally, I'm getting a lot of visual glitches - moving characters turned into blurry figures, and are trailing artifacts.

Other than that, I like the additions to the prologue, I found frantic berserker and raging fire guy, not sure if they were added recently or I just missed them before. Game has good potential.

Ti be hosnest EVERYTHING on this update are broken. They removed all RPG elements, transforming this game like as Dark Soul, Khazen style, not RPG anymore. So, no matter which class u select, which equips u use, which tactics u takes, nothing will make any difference. U just have to kill before be killed, and try the same fight 100000000000000x instead of one, cause its "hard", u deal no damage and be killed on 2 or 3 hits. Well, the RPG game, tactics, all transformed into like as many of sh1ts games there. Attack till ur stam or mana or arrows over. Runs on circle, circulate any obstacle, pillar, barrel, barrack, stone wall till u recover, attack again, repeat this process thousands of times till u kill one enemie. Or don't care if u are fighting 1 or 100 enemies, just do this strategic and u can kill everything in this "game" lol. And they say it's hard, more balanced, and more fun combat? HELL NO!

Could we have the possibility to leave custom notes on map, apart from custom marker?
Also, would love the possibility to tweak day and night cycle (together or each differently) versus real time.

it's utlimately for the best. Story is way better now. More immersive. The starting setting (tutorial) is soooo much better also.
It's gonna happened again on launch (1.0) so if it's a deal breaker for you, you might want to wait till then. I know I won't.

Dear devs, on xbox controller everything works great. But on a ps5 controller, there is no menu button lol Though, can simply just use "i" on the keyboard to fix that lol
And also, The menu music is absolutely FIRE!!! i listen to nordic music everyday so this made me happy :) In game music is so good as well!

[INTERV3NTION]

game crashes when i touch the starting shrine on the beach.

AMD cards kinda need some tinkering on their settings so you dont "cook" your GPU. Been using them by ages and nowadays i have a older rig with a 6700 and the newer rig with a 7800XT. Your GPU in Wilds isnt going hot probably due frame gen (it also happens to both of my cards). This game is on Unity Engine and this engine is a 304 to deal with AMD so i can recomend a UC profile and it will help you tremendously with temps. Godspeed.

I don't use frame gen in Wilds and I did some testing in other games after I got 9070. Everything was fine. The issue is with Avalon.

1 Crashes:
I have lowered my CPU Utilisation from 24 to 7.1 (on your recommendation) and have stopped crashing after death and during respawn, or just random gameplay crashes - thanks!
2 Performance:
Better than it was in 0.7, but still dropping some frame rates especially on Autosave.
3 Gameplay:
The balancing of the game especially at the beginning in Normal mode has changed to be more challenging than it used to be in 0.7 and lower. The damage you do vs you take against mobs is skewed in favour of the mobs. The time to outgrow this is long. Perhaps the new mechanics/settings need more time with the players to figure out "easier" leveling/equipment crafting and improvement to close the gap at the start... What I did like is the balance of food crafting to maintain the heals during those early levels. I am not suggesting you change anything, rather I think that players need more time to figure it out. It's not broken, but it is challenging.
4 Overall:
My experience with the game seems to be improving especially since March 25/26 Update. More fun, less frustration.
