I give up - Performance worse every update
I am not willing to fry my computer. Reinstalled yesterday, started new save and found out its even worse than i remember. My GPU 3060TI goes insane every other moment, with small airship and everything on Low or turned off. Early access improvements my ass, gonna spend my time in Valheim or OG subnautica.

Have fun with Valheim or Subnautica.

Only time I have performance issues is in the elevator. I have a 3080ti and the latest AMD 16 core though.

I mean, I play on DX11 Renderer, because my GPU overheats with the same conditions on DX12. Have you tried DX11?

Came here looking if other people had the same bad performance experience, guess that answers it. Frelling unreal engine :steamthumbsdown:.

Unreal is not a "bad engine", but it does have certain idiosyncrasy that is not commonplace. Especially with relation to "Older" Graphics cards like ours (although mine is only about a year or two old (AMD Radeon RX 5750 XT, as opposed to the newest 6000-series))

Tbpf Unity Caused me more issues because (at the time) the hidden malware in TenCent games was causing issues; but ever since the US Government Found that trojan China Pulled it.

Direct11 or 12 doesnt make a difeerence for me, even limiting GPU on 45 fps doesnt make a difference. What pisses me off, is that it was managable few months back. Now its worse, i spend a lot of time in this game and there are not very similar games out there. So its kinda infuriating that this POS game wont run properly.

MY older computer can"t handle the under dust. When i first bought game it was pretty stable;; now jumpy all over the place. Unplayable.

Agree with op. Compared to about six months ago, performance has become horrible.

Yeah, but if I wanna play something with 40 fps, 55FOV with no shadows and textures, i can go play Cyberpunk on 1440p.
We are all just coping, blaming EA, our rigs, being ICT potatoes... No, we are customers getting screwed over again.

Same here, was on beta and switched to main yesterday (achievements only work in main build) and performance did improve, also switching from dx12 to dx11 helped heaps (dx12 intro video not good, dx11 intro video good). I don't get full 60 fps, game runs around 45 fps drops to 35 sometimes, get the usual 1 fps in elevator tho.
Games settings on medium, motion blur off, 60fps limit (never gets there really).
My system:
I7-2600
GTX 1660 6GB running to a 40" tv
32GB ram
Intel DQ67SW motherboard, 13 years old.
2TB + 500GB HDD's

All in all it runs good enough for me, 316 hours so far.

Dx11 just makes the game stutter a lot for me. Also i get crazy shadow flickering the lower i set them, anyone else?

Supposedly the game is using all three upscaling methods at all times, even when turned off. Might want to set a bunch to quality to check and see if that helps

I fixed my issue of all 3 upscaling methods going at all times by doing a complete uninstall/reinstall, because file verification did nothing. I even deleted the appdata folder that holds the save and config files. Performance still isn't good, (far from it; had to turn shadows off and view distance to low) but at least my 3070 isn't trying to self-immolate anymore.

Are you running DX12 or 11? I can run this game on a 1060 with medium? view distance
