Please fix these issues: @Nixxes, @NaughtyDog

[TERMINATOR]

Okay, so these are the issues I have encountered in the game so far:

1. Weapon/Item wheel is glitchy when swaping handguns/shotgun/rifle using number keys on keyboard.

2. Ghosting/White Particles/Edges on the ground and walls possibly when using AMD FSR upscaling, in particular sections of game. (Mostly darker areas)

3. Occasional glitchy/bloomy coloured edges observed on the edges of the screen when using AMD FSR, mostly noticeable in dark areas or during aim down sights (ADS), this colour glitch is also observed on the ground as footsteps in aquarium flashback of Abby, when in the main hall, in front of reception desk, where Owen sits.

4. Massive frame drops in particular sections of the game.

I am confident, most of the players are facing at least one of these issues, I request the devs to fix these issues asap, I will surely update this thread if I encounter any more issues.

Regards.

Edit: So far, I have observed that frame drops are not consistent (as mentioned) but occur in specific locations and situations, for example, when going near the downtown river or during combat in various checkpoints. It's interesting to note that the FPS became normal as I switched between presets ( High to Medium then again to High) following this, the FPS attained their normal pace as before. However, sometimes this also leads to crash as well. ( My FPS are always locked to 75, but during frame drops, they drop to 55-45). (I guess its due to background shader compilation.)

All the issues I have mentioned so far, are not consistent but occur occasionally, except weapon wheel issue. (I am glad that the mouse issue has been fixed, good job devs.)

Apart from these technical issues, I am really enjoying the game.
Loving the story and gameplay.

I also would like to add:

1. Icons are not properly being loaded in some systems, showing a placeholder "?" symbol instead. It is unclear what conditions are causing it. See https://images.steamusercontent.com/ugc/23188016140097784/E976C527C0A0F38AE48B7EA57D891B5B3E841EA0/?imw=1024&imh=576&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=%23000000&letterbox=true

2. Gore effects are missing, such as blood dripping from dismemberment. Blood trails may be black and flickering on some systems. This affects the whole intended experience of the game.

3. SSAO is too bright compared to the consoles, reducing the overall final image contrast and affecting the intended art direction for its scenes. Maybe a more realistic approach is used in this PC release, but the intended art direction of the game should be prioritized first.

4. There is no bloom configuration other than an On/Off toggle, despite the bloom graphics description pointing otherwise, that its quality can be configured. Bloom in this release seems more basic than the console counterpart, directly affecting how some scenes look in comparison

5. Rain specular effects reacting to the environment lighting is missing

This video is actually a great reference on these issues: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJlvlSdlIoA

Other than that, the game performance is excellent and the port is off to a good start.

Picked up a guitar while exploring a non main quest building and got forced to play it then listen to the song, can't skip it or anything. Please allow us to skip this cut scene.

Strange issues for sure.

Frame drops (locked at 100fps, drops to 80fps), ghosting, flickering are most significant issues for me. Want to add that sometimes game crashes after ALT+TAB, like Ghost of Tsushima.

Also needs an option to disable sharpening.

This game has 0 technical issues, game runs like a dream. Maybe if you’re seeing glitchy reticles, ghosting or frame drops, it’s time to ditch that potato PC and join the big leagues. Whining to Naughtydog won’t fix your ancient rig.

The real problem though is How insanely woke this game is. That’s the glitch we should all be mad about, not your bargain bin setup.

@Cephei If you are not experiencing any issues, that's great. But this thread is for those who are, and your comment adds nothing constructive. Being disrespectful doesn't help the devs or the community.

With upscaling and WAY too much sharpening. It looks awful.

[TERMINATOR]

I would recommend players with AMD GPUs to disable the Radeon Image Sharpening, that can help with oversharpening.

Use dlss.

you should really put a ticket in for nixxes to see these bugs, as i dont think the steam discussions is the best place for it.
