trick to disable shadows?
Does anyone know if there's a trick to disable the forced shadows after the patch? The shadows look like they are on ULTRA which is killing my FPS.

it is not killing your FPS as shadows have been optimized.
something else is killing it maybe, but not shadows
And disabling shadows would give you unfair advantage in the game as you could spot people easier so that could even lead to a ban

Yes there is a trick, it's also very simple: Have a better PC.

1) read the patch notes
2) enter the game
3) check how people feel on lower end PC's

then write something useful if you have it

Forcing a high level of shadows, ambient occlusion, bloom and depth of field on everyone does nothing to "level the playfield". Much on the opposite, it's harming most of the player base. I don't have a performance problem with that but won't be playing the game now simply because it looks horrible.

they have a fix for low end pc coming i think they called it xbox one
It may be unfortunate for your PC performance. The solution is most likely upgrade your gear. Make sure you have followed the popular optimization guides for tweaking your current gear and settings to get the most out of that.

come on. the pc i play pubg on is an oldy. i72600k @3.4ghz , 680gtx 2gb and 16gb RAM. This update has made perforamnce BETTER for me across the board. Glad to see everyone using same shadows now as the difference was pretty large before.

got a new i7 1060, too lazy to get more than 8 memory, so the opt buildings are working for me. Frame bad for sum, but I used to playing on a potoato so seems ok to me. Lower you expectations man. Works with girfriends and with computer games.

I thought they will make the complete opposite. In h1z1 was a big optimization patch in terms of FPS. They enabled an option to disable the shadows at all which had a HUGE impact on FPS... whatever...

I don't have a performance problem with PUBG. Saying that forcing all these stuff on players "levels the playfield" is just plain dumb. Besides, it makes the game look horrible.
