That is an unfortunate part of these kinds of big games
Even Cyberpunk 2077 is not immune to this. Look hard enough and you will find it there too
Ive found places that are REAL bad lol Like it was just an afterthought to place the assets there.

We cant fix it, its a result of the Nanite landscape coupled with the devs "painting" these rocks and grass tufts, and not cleaning it up. They are all over the place, especially on cliffsides, only way to remove them is to turn off groundclutter via console, but that means one UGLY game because everything goes with it.

I've read somewhere if set "Foliage Interaction Distance Multiplier" to "0.03" it fixed the floating rocks, while getting a nice boost in performace.

No ive tried all the settings, off, on, halfway, restarts, its just how they made the map, and forgot to clean it up. Its VERY rushed, hopefully they do a full pass and clean out these floating abominations, its very distracting.

Having it off makes the issue 10x worse though, at the very least it needs to be on and the distance multiplier needs to be at 0.03 or 0.05 or basically every ground clutter item will float

IT is true, having it off or too low makes all the clutter not only flaot, but it also puts itself in a horizontal 90 degree angle, looks insanely stupid.

Maybe 10x was too generous as in this particular spot it's more like 100x times worse

Actually if there are too many floating stuff around the map, it sux. It is indeed distracting.

They F'ed this up, and this is just a MINOR disraction.
