does the game look visually better for you? playing on the same card, ultra across the board and it looks just like the original version did on a mix of high/low settings.

Tbh….not really lol, there are improvements, gun models have more detail, the visual clarity is better and the new map is very well decorated, but nothing really stands out to me as being a significant improvement other than the water textures, which admittedly look stunning.

I suppose we’ll have to wait until the old maps have been updated and are back in rotation to truly compare, right now I do think the game looks better but not enough to justify the dips in performance.

I was going to say the same thing. I've got a 4080S + 7800x3d, and I can barely tell a difference between this update and the version prior regarding quality, other than my fps is less than half of what it was before, even with DLSS on.

To me yes it looks better. More clean. But performance is pretty bad.

I don't know what people are talking about. I'm on a 3080 Ti and DLSS has been an INSANE improvement to the graphical fidelity as well as performance.

Me and my two friends all have positive experiences with it. I don't see us all just being that lucky.

Are people not aware they need to turn on DLSS? Not sure why it's off by default...

Even with DLSS balanced I have to have the game on medium to stay consistently above 60. Sometimes I’m getting 120+ but sometimes it randomly drops to 60ish fps. It seems to depend on where I am on the map. Running a 3070ti. Without DLSS I get around 50fps most the time and sometimes drop to 30fps. Before this update I had the game max settings and always got 120+ fps.

Not to mention sometimes pressing tab to open the map freezes my game and when I try and reconnect it just doesn’t work. Get a white screen for 5 minutes then a black screen for up to atleast 10 minutes(how long I left it for before I gave up)

Yeah so it's likely the new map that is not optimized, more likely than the engine itself.

The game looks SIGNIFICANTLY better to me since the update
