Agreed. Performance is poor

Even on PS5 I actually had to set it to "Cinematic Mode" The highest setting to get a stable 30 FPS, On "performance Mode" I was getting 30-50 in Small/Medium areas and 20-40 FPS in Large open areas. WTF was the point of this "Upgrade"? I will definitely not be "Upgrading" on PC. Fool me once.

True, but this isn't an expansion FYI. If you thought that, I'm sorry to inform you that this is just a remaster at best.

even? As if PS5 is somehow better than PC? Most PCs are far more powerful than PS5s.

I mean, PC gamers don't like to hear it but that's really not true. It's hard to be totally sure but Steam stats show us that the vast VAST majority of PCs are not at all "more powerful" than a PS5.

That's before things like the custom SSD controller in the PS5 are brought into the equation, giving the PS5 SSD speeds far greater than anything a Windows PC can manage (DirectStorage helps but it's not totally comparable).

The PS5 custom SSD controller was genuine next gen stuff, Ratchet and Clank Rifts Apart wouldn't be possible on a PC in the same way it is on a PS5.

All that said the user you're replying to was likely referring to the fact that most console releases are more stable than PC ports currently.

Should call it a demaster with the current state it's in

I'm running a 10700k CPU 32 gigs of ram NVME 1TB SSD and a 3070. The graphics settings are all on and resolution is set to 1080p. I am getting a solid 60 FPS. Just lower your resolution to get better FPS.

I hate to say it but this really is looking like a lazy cash grab to me on PS5 and Xbox Series X. The PC version didn't really need a remaster at all and the quality of life improvements (if there are any) could easily have been patched into the PC version... for free! Selling this mess on PC, at any price, is insulting, especially when the Steam page boasts "improved performance"!!! I mean... c'mon... that's a blatant lie, right there!

Seriously, if you are going to sell a remastered game at a price then at least put some effort into it to ensure it works properly!!! The PC version is bad enough but there really is no excuse for the console versions running so poorly as they have FIXED hardware. This is a four year old game, right, and no-one expects a remaster to run worse.

Bro get off the PC master race BS, I was saying it as lately games have been way better optimized on console on release than they are on PC. So I usually go for console first anymore because of that. not because of which is MoRe pOwErful.

Yeah this is 100% a cash grab.

Unfortunately all I saw was a PS5 upgrade for one of my all time favorite games so I bought it no questions.

Every other game that has gotten the PS5-XBOX X/S upgrade has been much better or at a minimum a steady 60-120 FPS in performance mode.

Also lately games have come out with close to near perfect optimization on the consoles so I have been buying most games there first. But with this one as soon as you could move after the drop pod lands I could already tell I was never going to get a steady 60 and the most I have gotten was a steady 30.

So like I said before Fool me once. I have no interest in also "upgrading" my PC version.

Well You figured it out! Hey everyone! We got the solution right here!! Just drop the resolution down!! Why play the old version at 4k when you can pay and play the new version at 1/4 the resolution!! You sir, are a Getius err...Genius
