So was this a huge flop?

[Hi.standard]

Just visiting the boards a few weeks after initial release. Seems to be completely nothing but people with issues. It's a shame, I was hoping this would be a good one. But even if they fix the bugs, seems like...any potential audience for this game has already moved on.

Yeah, performance issues pretty much killed any chance for a lengthy post-launch support or sequel, which is a shame because this is easily an 8 or 9/10 game crushed into a 5/10 due to poor optimization.

The game runs without issues for me, and I finished it, even the new content, since end game is pretty much cosmetics farming....after you get that one costume there is nothing more to really do, same with monster hunter. After a while you just occasionally play only patch to patch.

I was waiting to see if the performance patches were going the right way, but after 3 weeks it doesn't look like it.
I'm giving the game one last chance, for its next patch, then I'll look elsewhere.

I don't know what you're talking about. The game is doing fine lol. Most people play games on consoles.. you know dedicated gaming systems. PC's are too varied with hardware and softwares installed there's bound to be problems.

It's good if your PC is good to run it.

Sounds stupid, but running it on 4 K upscaling on a 1920x1080 resolution boosts the performance quite a bit, considered you are willing to set texture, model and texturefiltration to medium and global illumination to none

Don't know why but it got a good boost in performance for me.
Or to say it otherwise, 1920x1080 on amd 6600 xt uses everything my graphiccard has to offer while 4k upscaling on full hd leaves around 20% headroom.

i have a suspicion that the game is designed to run in 4k or upscaled 4k instead of nativ resolutions.

Edit:
Tested on the first map, there the upscaling sucs on 4k, works better with 3200x1800. who knows why.

sad the developers wont fix the pc platform. they are not reason this game cant run on medium rigs. they are nothing that graphical about this game. assassins creed game has more open world and looks better than this and has way better performance, i think they need to scrap the katana engine or only use it for consoles.

the latest nvidia driver that came out today plays nicer than the last one with wild hearts but dont expect magic..

I'm on a older driver. I was getting more fps than people with higher end cards did at launch. Thanks for letting me know something I can try.

Got any proof to back that up?

I am running the game rather well, though im not playing on the highest settings im playing on high but also turn off the motion blur (I hate motion blurr it bugs my eyes) that actually i find also helps reduce some stress and really..... its not a needed thing so.

PC playerbase is dropping. Only 1912 players currently in-game.
PC platform is Dead. They have no reason to fix it.

Games like this don't keep a huge player base long. It's not live service

Looks at Monster Hunter World's and Rise's consistent 10k-15k players several years later...

Wild Heart's 2k players 1 month later...

Certainly MonHun is much more established as an IP, but there's something else it also has; Framerates and stability.

Those that have been able to comfortably play this game know that it's a pretty darn good game, but there's no denying that it absolutely fell flat on its face due to poor optimization. The majority of the truckloads of negative reviews are all about poor performance and frequent crashes.

It's a good game, a great game even, but it ruined its future, and it's getting worse with every passing week. It won't, and can't, have any staying power in its current form.

with the lack of support and this game is still a live service game. as in it still gonna receive updates, i believe people need to band together its not fair we got the short end of the stick. devs have been silent no updates on performance. or possible solutions to even running the game. you have to have a very high end pc to play a game that looks like it came out in 2016. ive seen older direct x games look better this this. ive played all the monster hunters. i can run this game at 45-60 fps. if i stream i get 35-50fps, and im running everything on the lowest setting
they need to tell us something. let us know if they are redoing the code in the engine to be more presentable on more cores,
