Graphics still look bad at epic???

[Darth Chodeicus the Wide]

ive got the game maxed out but there are noticeable issues that ruin the point of having "nice" Graphics, shadows moving at a lower frame rate ? ground clutter popping up relatively nearby, some shadowing on tree leaves looks dodgy, not to mention all the floating rocks

is there a way to fix any of these issues ?

not to mention all the floating rocks

If you (or anyone else) is still struggeling with floating rocks: play around with the interaction distance setting.
For some reason, these rocks are "entities" and can interact with their ground. If the interaction distance is too low, smaller rocks will just be floating like a carpet, instead of hugging the ground.
At least this did help in my case.

This will not fix trees or large rocks that float. Those are just bad map making.

You're very under the specs "recommended" by Wildcard... RTX 3080.

not by a significant amount, as i mentioned even at sub 720 resolutions and low Vram settings these issues persist

I had similar problems with my 3070 ti until I updated to a 4070 ti super and suddenly all the weird graphic glitches, the blurry background, blurry textures etc. were gone. So it is most likely - besides the multiple problems the game has - a hardware issue. It wont fix ALL the problems, but a big chunk of it. At least for me.

i think its more of a Vram issue, on both 8gb cards ive used they had issues loading now on my 4080s its fine

yeah because... better hardware

i should clarify, im running Medium Textures and DLSS quality to avoid Vram issues, no matter the settings weather i focus on LOD, like render distance folliage, or if i focus on shadows settings like Shadows, Advanced graphics and (forgot the name) basically the AO setting, these issues persist

even if i try dropping some GPU settings like resolution and drop DLSS even further these issues persist, ive tried a fresh install along with a fresh download of windows, Ive read online there are some game codes i can put in to fix the LOD distance, firstly that shouldnt be the case but secondly that doesnt fix the shadow issues

Try running everything on full epic. Then you will see the graphics you were expecting

lies lol, i got a 4080s now and its completely maxed in every way possible, still has issues, not limited to my pc at all, low shadow frame rates being the most noticeable, its not every shadow just a few but its noticeable, along with floating ground clutter popping up sometimes, its rarer now that ive got foliage interaction maxed as apparently thats associated to the issue

so no running the full game on epic and what i suspected with my 3060ti being faults of the game were infact faults of the game, cant make nice graphics on a rocky foundation, its issues will persist due to them probably being Unreal issues along with wildcard not focusing on them as lots of people are fine with it

dont get me wrong the game looks lovely, but i expect stunning, its got issues that ruin it for me

[76561199377993540]

I have a PC of 4000 €, for the love of God, there is no way to fix those shadows and that lighting, the game looks horrible. I just hope that today or tomorrow I have to eat my words.

[Real3D]

I totally hear you. I play on full epic, and it is stunning. Nothing else compares. But you need the hardware too. I run a rtx 4080 on 1440p 60fps and its completely smooth

RIGHT, i feel you man love this game but god it could be much better graphically

[Salty Sensei]

sounds like it could be a setting elsewhere.

[Real3D]

i mean the game is still early access. It's improved big time since launch last year. Either way, in my opinion it's still the most next-gen game available

[76561199377993540]

I don't know what generation it is, what I know is that the performance is mediocre not to say pitiful, the lighting and shadows are horrible, the worst I've ever seen, I need sunglasses to be able to play for more than half an hour. My pc more than complies, I have run it in every possible way, that flickering vegetation ruins everything. Tomorrow will be the time to decide if 100gb on my hard drive is worth it.

i got a 4080 super still has the same issues

lol

[Wizdum]

your hard ware needs an upgrade my guy.

this game for what it is does look really good on 7900xtx and 4090s ofc

i however just play games with my pc an make comments here an there. so i prefer the more budget friendly AMD products over intel an AMD the price too performance just isnt worth it to me.

AMD 7 5800x3d
7900xtx
64gb ram AMD optimized corsair ram - i truly doubt the AMD ram makes a difference an is more marketing jarggin but eh they got me.
