Unreal Engine 5 sucks.

[Wolf]

Its a laggy unfinished and unready mess. It barely looks any better than Unreal Engine 4 and literally runs 10x worse.

[VeinySnickers]

You my friend, are correct. Nothing like forced Global Illumination and Anti Aliasing.

[Starkregen]

ah unreal engine.
its either a stutter clustermess or performance miracle that can run even on your toast.
never in between

[Pixie Paws]

Unreal Engine 5 is a trash indeed. UE4 is way much better.

[HickoryDickoryDeenis]

It's ugly, oh wow you made like rocks look okay under blinding direct sunlight... good work 👏

[Tyso]

the performance was heavily reduced with the 1.1.9 hotfix, a 4070ti cant even do 1440p ray tracing anymore, please submit bug reports so the devs know this is a wipespread issue

Purely Tfd's issue.
Just played Marvel Rivals (UE5 btw) and the game runs smooth as heck with 0 fps drops on my pc on maxed out graphics.
While TFD were occasionally lagging and stuttering like crazy.
TFD is badly optimized, that's why you have issues with running it. The devs are to blame.

dont forget all the crashes that users are reporting

I didn't get any crashes with TFD though, but the game were stuttering 2 times for like a good 1-2 seconds each 15-30minutes. And my FPS occasionally were dropping for 0 reason.
I don't know if they fixed that or not (I don't really care tho), I'm just stating that UE5 isn't the issue.
Developers are.

Game of the Year 2024 would like to speak with you.

Indeed! Yet, Unreal Engine 4 has lot of potential. This is a demo running on a 2014 GPU, also know as GTX 970 on native resolution 1080p

- no optimization at all
- no pre-baked animation
- 20 trees (70000 poly each, no lod)
- 100 bushes (6000 poly each, no lod)
- 35-60fps 1080p on a GTX 970 (with epic/high quality)

Why are you talking about 2014?

UE5 has nanite.
You can literally render an entire forest. Millions ( yes millions) of trees.
1.5 ~ 2.5 million ( again, million) polygons each.
and get 60+ frames per second.
Welcome to 2024.

No company wants to build their own engine. It's too hard you know.

[Ex-D204]

Cant wait next update will force ray tracing on all the time

my brother in christ i have a 4070ti and a 5700x3d and cant run ray tracing anymore because of the performance drops introduced in the recent hotfixes, its very clearly a optimization issue

You sure it's not a driver issue? Or even a heat issue? It's pretty common for a PC to be overheating and throttling itself back, newer GPU's and CPU's both have that ability anymore. Perhaps you're overclocked and that's causing it. There's a million things it can be, but I'd put my bet on the driver, Nvidia drivers have been pretty trashy for the past few months, it's becoming a normal to roll them back....almost as bad as AMD drivers.....
