TAA Broken and terrain flicker
Just reinstalled DSDC and where do I begin. It seems the last update broke the post processing section, TAA doesn't apply properly at launch, everything appears jaggy until I turn off TAA and turn it back on.

I cannot use any upscaling techniques because FSR and Intel XESS cause those ghosting trails on particle effects and since I got a GTX 1660 ti, DLSS is not an option for me.

If someone could at least suggest any fixes for the TAA, that'd be enough at this point. I doubt I can do anything about the terrain flicker around BT areas. Definitely DID NOT expect this from KJP. Needless to say the update was absolutely unnecessary, intel GPU users are in the minority correct me if I'm wrong and to support that technology they broke a perfectly working game.

Jaggy? Is this at 1080p?

It is very jaggy at 1080p. Even with TAA. Such a shame that game doesnt support DSR/DLDSR.

Yes I got 1080p here, I have actually 100% DSDC before the last intel update that's why I'm jumping to the conclusion the intel update caused all this. Everything was nearly perfect before, only small performance dips but that's always been a thing with DS.

I found out the an hex editor can fix this TAA issue, the game saves the TAA setting just fine but has trouble loading it up on startup and it looks like it loads FXAA, I compared everything.

I'm just going back to the original.

You are not the only one with problems with DC.

I fixed it for myself by using DLDSR. But the problem is that i need to set desktop resolution to dldsr resolution so i can use it in game but the game looks very crisp and clean with no jaggies

Just want to confirm that this is still an issue.
Not only TAA is trash, but for what i've experienced TAA also causes stutters in my game. That is if I re-enable it because it gets disabled every time I restart the game.

I just can't believe this is still an issue, it's been a problem since release! They also haven't fixed the cut-scenes rendering at half the frame rate of your max frame rate.

Thanks KJP for letting us now that PC is just not a priority for you.
For god's sake report these issues to 505 and not here. support.505games.com

Thanks for letting me know, I've been thinking about reinstalling DSDC to see if they fixed it yet or not. I guess I'll stick to the original death stranding until I get a PS5.

That melodramatic stuff (eg "PC is just not a priority for you") doesn't achieve anything

Nvidia is kind of a mess on its own.

next gen graphic always like that..which is sad but it doesn't really interrupt your gameplay

Next gen?

DSDC is technically next gen.

No it's not. It was built initially for the PS4.

With 4K native the terrain isn't that good.

I found that playing on version 1.001 solves most of my performance issues and bugs.
It sucks that the Director's Cut has worse performance than the original version.
If this is the level of quality we are getting, maybe our only option is to buy a PS5 because either KJP doesn't care about PC or 505 Games is not doing a good job of communicating the issues of the game to the dev team.

Version 1.001 is a beta rollback from the properties?
