This game has turned to complete garbage

[RaidenFury]

Performance is terrible all of a sudden. Struggling to keep steady FPS, and rendering when looking through a magnified optics makes the textures look like I'm playing PS1 game.
Silent AI that even on untrained domes me from across the map as soon as I walk out of the spawn area. Seriously, this game is so borked I have no hope for it anymore.

I always thought this was superior to ready or not, but it seems that this has fallen into the same kind of broken, buggy, and unbalance mess that game is still stuck in.

GJ, devs.

You wanna know something ? This is still in Early Access :)

Early access for how many years now?

What's the problem ? I know some games (BeamNG.Drive for example) who are in Early Access for more than 10 years and those games are amazing, Early Access just mean that the developers consider their game not good enough to be released in v1.0.

People needs to stop thinking "Too long early access = bad games", that's stupid.

Except that the game used to play better than it currently does. If I could roll it back to a release from a couple of years ago when the bots worked properly I would.

And before the resident discussion troll starts, I'm not bashing the game, I just wish that instead of working on all of the superfluous eye candy they would focus on the mechanics and the bots. Yes, I know that the developers switched the bot AI software, but they haven't worked right since that change.

Exactly this. I'd love to roll back the AI. Before was better.

All of a sudden as in just now or between 1033 and 1034?

It's been downhill since 1033, 1034 really was a noticeable drop in texture quality and performance.

Assets, like textures, have been replaced over the years.
So their quality should be going up.
That could affect performance, if you disabled mip maps.
Then the lower details versions would not be loaded and you'd be running high res textures all the time, even if they were too far away to make a difference.

Running a 40-series nvidia GPU?

The only gripe I have is the AI. When I first started playing GB the AI was pretty good but since the change its a struggle. I've been making my own missions for awhile and play testing them can be frustrating with the AI as it is.

The games great just need the important AI to be ironed out.

It looks and runs great on a 40-series nvidia.

My main issue is with the changes to the AI. My PC can handle the graphics with no issues. A bunch of us used to play DM against the AI bots, but now they no longer respawn. Not sure if any of the other modes have this issue, since they do not allow player respawning, which BTW would be a nice option to add for those that choose to play that way. "Purists" could leave that set to off if they choose.

Oh, and on occasion a couple of us that play together notice that in the Ready Room sometimes the characters will not stand still, and will slowly "glide" across the floor.

3060. Never had an issue with textures until the update. Up close they look good, but distance and rendering looks horrible. I know I don't have a top of the line rig, but a 3060 shouldn't struggle to run this game and make it look good.

m4a1 + surg/sur300 kits = cancel esc EXIT

Why is the AI completely silent? They seem to appear out of thin air in the CQB maps and you can't hear them when they sprint towards you. Great programming.

And the egregious lock-ons in complete darkness. I could totally understand them having a vague, general area to start investigating if they hear a suppressed gunshot, and maybe the rookies might even blindfire in that general direction... but they know exactly where to go to close with you, and when the area is so godamned dark that if you turn your nods off the screen LITERALLY goes completely black, these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ are shooting DIRECTLY at you from 20 feet away, even AFTER you sprinted away from the position where you took your shot for 10 seconds, and there was nobody near you to hear you move. They just move towards you, get to a certain distance and bang.

Playing night/dark missions is a joke - stealth used to be the most fun part of this game. Now its like a difficulty increase. smh
