Until Dawn List of Issues Thread

[MADagain321]

I find it pretty interesting how many issues creep up even within the first hour of games released these days... I really don't appreciate being a free beta tester after spending over $100AUD on this "remake" PS5 update... however here we are.

I want to put this thread together to show that the people saying its a "great port" or whatever... are straight up lying. I personally don't understand why they have to lie, it's easier for all of us if you just say it runs bad with high end hardware and move on...

So I'll be putting together a master list of most of the bugs/issues people have in this thread, if you have your own issues please make a thread with details so the developers can attempt to replicate it.

Side note, can someone please explain why there's so many people whinging about the PSN thing, I have multiple Sony games and none of them are signed in yet I can play the game perfectly fine... just don't worry about it lol.

System used:
Intel Core i9 11900k
MSI MPG Z590 GAMING PLUS
Corsair Vengeance PRO 3200Mhz 32GB
EVGA RTX 3080 FTW3 10GB

ISSUES:
- Changed introduction sequence in the remake...
- Regional pricing mismatched when converted from USD
- Preparing shaders each time the game launches
- Cursor stays on screen when using a gamepad
- Xbox buttons shown even when using a Dualshock 4 controller
- After update screen percentage changed to 25% - why??
- Antialiasing on fur/hair shows jaggies/fuzzy artifacts
- Overly high CPU usage in intro video cutscene - pinned at 100% (Seems to be fixed after initial update
- Windowed mode appears to cause overall lower FPS in similar sections noted above... or maybe it's just so sporadic it makes no difference... have to do more testing with that.
- Deer fur texture looks really bad for a remake
- AVX requirement issues - not only that but AVX could be causing issues with performance so despite what the comments suggest it has been a noticeable thing with AVX supported games to have issues with performance? - https://steamcommunity.com/app/2172010/discussions/0/4851030529134847954/
- Audio disappearing during cutscenes for some people - https://steamcommunity.com/app/2172010/discussions/0/4851030529137761916/
- Stuck on loading screen after day 1 - initial patch - https://steamcommunity.com/app/2172010/discussions/0/4851030529138142195/
- Out of video memory when the game seems to only want to use around 6-6.5GB - https://steamcommunity.com/app/2172010/discussions/0/4851030529138009147/

MAJOR ISSUES:
- Low GPU usage + FPS in first in-game cutscene (realtime rendered) @53% + 44FPS
- Low GPU usage + FPS in lounge/kitchen cutscene (realtime rendered) @53% + 44FPS
- Low GPU usage across the board ranging from 43-78% usage inside the house?
- Highest GPU usage so far is in the video intro cutscene with 98%... ??? HOW
- Overly sporadic frametimes for the same frame count (anywhere from 8-23ms)

Post your threads here, duplicate threads won't be added.

For me its just unplayble it uses 2 cores out of 8 on the i7 9700f at 100%, while others 6 cores 4-5%, because of this, any changes in the graphics settings help doesn't help, the best I could achieve was an unstable 25-45 fps with frame generation enabled and the lowest settings with rescaling, it's unplayable
processor i7 9700f
graphics card rtx 4060 ti
32 GB of RAM
the game is installed on an ssd m2
Res 1920x1080

None of the components are loaded even at half strength, and the best the game can offer is this ♥♥♥♥♥♥ performance.

An RTX 3080 is pretty good, hardly need a new GPU enough poking the bear

New game breaking bug/glitch. Possible spoilers ahead.


When Mike returns to the sanatorium and find the shotgun in the room there’s a glitch where he gets stuck in the room and can’t leave I have this glitch at the moment and it makes the game completely unplayable

[SHARKON]

PSN Network Services do not close after I quit to desktop and Steam keeps showing the game as "running" until I manually hit the "exit" button in my library.

game also doesn't go well with nvidia features (dlaa/dlss) on my end. it's fine with disabled film grain and no upscaling whatsoever. I get stable 60 (locked) all the way with ultra settings (7800x3d/ rtx3080 / 64 gb/ 1440p).

[Gonsnakex]

Damn. It sounds like the game is broken. I think I'll wait to get it

[vybornak]

Another bug:
In chapter nine, when sam is looking for mike, she is trying to get to sanatorium. Just before she gets there there is a part where you get camera capturing Sam from insde the window. Afterwarts camera doesn't change. So player can not see character anymore, making game unplayable from this point. This bug presist even after restart.

For me if I change anything in settings the graphics become pixelated and I have to close the game and restart the game to fix this issue. Weird.

i5 10600k, rx 6700xt just refunded it right now, runs like a pile of hot garbage, like most UE5 games to be fair but as someone who always has been sensitive to stutter and bad framepacing this game is unplayable, will wait a couple weeks / months and try again.

i have a 4080 and i9-14900k and also having mild stutters. game seems to be CPU demanding. hopefully they can get the stutters figured out.
