Any news on the new engine?

[NaN4i]

Hello, I just found out that a while ago it was announced that the game will receive a big update, a new engine. The game really needs it, the performance, the stuttering, the constant fps drops, the low use of the GPU and the graphics.

Is it known if it will use a new engine or will it be a new version of CryEngine?
Is there a set date for when the update will be released?

Further updates will be announced later this year.

It was announced originally about this time last year.

Don't hold your breath.

It's an update to the latest version of Cry Engine, the minimum specs are changing ever so slightly.

You won't meet minimum specs with a 13 year old PC but a 12 year old you will.

Take that as you will on what difference the Engine is really going to improve.

Otherwise in a year we have not had so much of a single screenshot of the new Engine.

The new servers capable of hosting the new engine are on a container ship in Baltimore.

What would you want a screenshot of? The games engine doesn't dictate how the game looks. It's just a starter kit with base functionalities.

It's (hopefully) gonna streamline functions; like hit-detection, rubberbanding, disconnection issues, kill trading, and so on. The game might even look absolutely identical afterwards.

Showcasing the new map adding FSR any graphically changes it will improve. The AA now is absolutely terrible compared to Early Access.

Sure it runs better due to optimization but come on that was 6 years ago. Hardware has improved drastically.

In Early Access using a 1070 I had nice straight line fences at 1440, 70FPS

Now on a 3080 at 4K everything on Ultra I get 144FPS but jagged flashing fences, building roofs and telephone wires.

I don't think the game will have the same graphics, it would make no sense to update the game engine, they have also said that they will stop supporting PS4 and Xbox One

I have a 4070ti and a 49" monitor with 5120*1440 resolution 165hz ,CPU i7 !2700k and had set it to 120fps, my GPU is running almost all the time at 100%, i also had all on Ultra only not post proces.. How can you get 144 fps?

I have lighting to either High or Medium can't remember as that was the only one that seemed to cause a dip, but it was over 120 with it on Ultra but visually it didn't make much difference so I lowered it for that little bit of performance gain.

I'm using a i7 13700k and 64GB of DDR 5

Oh and my 3080 is the 12GB version not the standard 10GB version.

Yeah ok i forgot i also have the effeck quality off or low, so i dont get blinded by the light, my GPU is also 12GB, but i have 32GB DDR 4 4000Mhz. So maby its my CPU or DDR 4 ram kitt there makes the different?

Possibly so. I don't think the CPU is really that much of a difference but stepping up to DDR5 though in things such as music editing I've noticed a big improvement.
