How is the PC version of The Last of Us in its current state?

[TheMickeyMoose]

Now that the PC version has had multiple patches, how is it in its current state? Is it still pinning CPU’s to 100% constantly? Would you recommend picking it up now or continue to wait?

for me it's smooth after the nividia hotfix patch

Same - I'm around 5-6 hours in and haven't had any crashes yet, or any significant issues at all,
19-10900k/32gb ddr4/3080ti/installed on nvme

It depends a lot on your system. If you have a strong enough PC there are few real issues. If you have a strong enough CPU you are not going to have your CPU at 100%. Also depends on your GPU too, if you have a bad combo, like one I did read here, 7700k with a 3090, yeah, you are going to have 100% CPU usage, if you have that 7700k with a proper GPU for that CPU, the GPU is going to bottleneck first, of course, you are going to aim to a lower FPS too.

This game required both good CPU and GPU, and not too old too, from this or previous gen.

It is still very poorly optimized, with high usage of CPU, VRAM, RAM and GPU. Plus slow loadings even on high-speed NVME SSDs.

It's absolutely incredible to me that people are still on this board claiming the port is perfect when the devs have acknowledged every issue with it and fixed a bunch of them lmao.

Memory leaks, poor memory management, shader compilation issues, mouse shuddering, terrible texture quality on anything below high. Naughty Dog has owned up to them all and said even now they're working on fixes.

Meanwhile sad bastards are dedicating their spare time to defending a video game.

it's not really perfect (yet), but... you are very unprofessional, tbh. lol

the game has seen some very good improvements the past week. you still on day one or running it on a potato? lame. sry bye

Did you even read the comments here?... Noone here is claiming the port is perfect, in fact it's completely messed up, but its about 50-50 for people wether they can run the game smoothly or not, alot of people including myself had a pleasant experience with TLoU and i have 32gb ram, basic 3070, and i5-10600k, and from what i've seen in this comment section its the people with the really expensive high end pcs that are having trouble. Nobody here is defending this, and naughty dog should be ashamed for releasing this amazing game in this state.

Thank you for proving my point.

If you'd read my previous post you'd know I can run it fine, occasionally needing to force the shaders to recompile (because this port is a mess)

Can't get above 90 FPS at any resolution (1080, 1440, 4K) or any settings. Using a 4090 and a 5900x with 64gb of ram. DLSS does nothing either. Using latest drivers and everything. Anyone else have this issue?

Wait, you thought it would get stable 120? https://youtu.be/_n5E7feJHw0

During testing the 4090 was getting sub 60FPS in 4K ray traced unreleased games. However, everyone ran out to send Jensen over 2K in most scalped instances, & proudly bought the card. There was a reason I didn't like this gen beyond technical specs, they are making each previous gen obsolete before they begin with DLSS fakery now.

60FPS 4K wasn't even the target this gen without DLSS3. It can get up to 600FPS in old games at 1080P, but 4K 60FPS for stuff today, it was not even aiming for, the 90 silicon die is shaved down even, because they want you buying the Ti version later.

[ALLYC4T]

You must have misread. I can't get above 90 in any resolution with any settings low or ultra. 1080 on all low is still max 90 fps. Can't get above 90 FPS at all. Period. On a 175hz screen so it's not that either. Framerate unlocked, no external caps anywhere.

The game is heavily CPU bound. Not only are you not the only one with this issue, everybody with a halfway decent GPU has this issue. The CPU determines your maximum frame rate in this game.

Fortunately for you, the AMD Ryzen 9 5900x is a 12-Core / 24 Thread CPU, which means you can actually get 90 FPS on the Last of Us.

4 Cores = 30 FPS
6 Cores = 45 FPS
8 Cores = 60 FPS
12 Cores = 90 FPS - (5900x)
16 Cores = 120 FPS

* Assuming a 4GHz average clock speed...

I max out at 122 at 4K, but that is absolute max, as in like some areas it only happens when staring straight up at the sky, it's a MAX.

I have a 5900X OC'd however, and that might be why..

As of yesterday the game was optimizes on lesser hardware, I can now even crank everything to ultra @4k on a 3080 (prior to the last update I was only able to use medium/high settings)
10/10 recommend right as of now
