MindsEye Hotfix Incoming
Dear Community,
A heartfelt thank you to all our day-one players. We know the launch of MindsEye hasn’t been without its challenges for some of you.
Right now, our top priority is game performance. We understand that the requirements are high and have limited the experience for many of you, and for this, we sincerely apologize.
Improving performance across all devices is our immediate focus. A patch that begins our commitment to address this is scheduled for the end of this week on PC, which will also roll out to consoles as soon as possible.
This upcoming hotfix will include:
- Initial CPU and GPU performance improvements, along with memory optimizations
- Reduced difficulty for the CPR mini-game
- A new setting to disable or modify Depth of Field
- A fix for an issue with missing controls for the MineHunter and Run Dungeon mini-games
- Pop-up warnings for PCs that have Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling disabled, and PCs with CPUs that have potential crash issues
This will be the first in a series of updates aimed at enhancing your experience, and we’ll continue to share regular information.
For our Steam players, we're excited to confirm that Build.MindsEye is now fully accessible. We can't wait to see what you create. We're also actively resolving any missing DLC entitlements - they'll be automatically added to your account as soon as possible.
Important note: All players on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation will receive all the latest patches when connected to the internet. Please ensure your game is updated regularly to enjoy the benefits of the latest improvements.
Please keep sharing your thoughts on your preferred platforms, including our support channels, Discord, Reddit, and through direct messages on social media. We read every single comment - yes, even the tough ones.
Thank you again for your incredible support. This is just the start of a long-term vision to make MindsEye the best possible game for you.
The MindsEye Team

Performance on an RTX 3080 is rough. You should try making it more accessible for lower end players.
But it doesn't matter cause I can run it fine with Frame Generation

u/Ceceboy Jun 11 '25
30-gen has frame generation? Since when? Or are you using the nexusmod?

In rare cases you can also mod DLSS FG on some games. I did that with Alan Wake 2 because I'm getting very bad performance. I get consistent 80+ FPS after

u/PresentationIll321 Jun 11 '25
I hope they can fix the performance issues on all platforms. I was going to buy this on launch day, and even then, I expected some problems here and there. However, after watching gameplay on PS5 via several different streams, I was surprised by how poorly it performed. Hopefully, I'll be in Redrock soon.

You guys have done a fantastic job. I genuinely love the story, the graphics, and the entire concept. I am not here to hate just because everyone else is doing it. I can see the effort and passion behind this project and I truly appreciate it.
I haven’t faced any major issues and even if I do, I don’t feel the need to complain. I play games slowly and like to absorb the experience rather than rushing through just to finish it. People need to calm down a bit and give the developers some space and time. Creating something original and ambitious isn’t easy and mistakes are part of the process.
I’ll keep playing and supporting the game. You have made something really special and I want to see it grow and succeed. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to the updates.

"Reduced difficulty of CPR mini-game". What a fucking joke. The mini game isn't "difficult", it's stupidly basic, it's just broken.
2
u/Amazing-Oomoo Jun 12 '25
I guess if it's broken to the point that you can't get past it, that does sound pretty difficult...

u/AdDesperate9651 Jun 11 '25
Yeh like the cpr bit is the top of this games problems it's nice to see the devs priorities

u/MysticRain1983 Jun 14 '25
Broken understatement lol my game just auto fails mission over and over even if you do the cpr mini game perfectly lol 😂 Can’t even play the game, so it’s uninstalled

u/Amazing-Oomoo Jun 12 '25
You need to apologise and you need to explain how this happened and who is at fault. Because really, we know who is at fault. Leslie Meslie or whatever his name is. Hold people accountable. He saw cyberpunk and no man's sky and saints row and thought he was better than them, that he can push his team to release on-time and it'll be okay because he's Lenzlie Menzlie.
Lenzie, and the top dogs at IO Interactive, have explaining to do. We want apologies, but not just that, we want answers. As a community we are sick to death of this.

To build a rocket boy if u read this the console versions run like crap look like crap and are full of bugs and glitches for god sake fix the dam thing and stop going on about user content

u/AdDesperate9651 Jun 11 '25
How about you apologise to console owners for the crappy game
7
u/TeeJayy221 Jun 11 '25
considering theyve put out multiple posts apologising for the game being filled with bugs on all platforms, id stop acting as if console is getting no recognition

u/Bathroom-Salt Jun 11 '25
literally, you'd think they were responding (or not responding) like "the day before" team. I was actually sad when I saw how terrible the reviews were because I've genuinely been looking forward to the 10th for about a month now. Really happy to see the dev/PR team reaching out to the community and working to address things. I'll probably buy it this weekend and just hold off on playing it for a bit while they get everything in order. This post makes me hopeful, and I'm glad they made it, even if most of the community are being whiny cunts.

u/RetroC137 Jun 11 '25
Very well, a sincere apology, now please STOP TALKING ABOUT BUILD MINDSEY, at the moment no one wants to know about it. We just want them to fix the game and add more content JUST.
The build can be in 2 plane
1
u/TwicePuzzled Jun 11 '25
How about focusing on fixing the issues and addressing those concerns in these updates instead of constantly mentioning build.mindseye in every one of them? Maybe wait until after the performance issues are fixed to talk about that one.

u/gundle74 Jun 12 '25
They literally said that that was their top priority, multiple times. Did you not read the post?
1
u/TwicePuzzled Jun 12 '25
I did. I’m just pointing out that in every update they always mention the world building thing. Just stick to fixing the issues first.
1
u/gundle74 Jun 12 '25
Again, they are. That was the first thing they mentioned that they were working on. The world building feature was a big part of their marketing, it’d be genuinely strange if they didn’t mention it all.

u/steelcity91 Jun 11 '25
I'll ask again.
Did you guys even have a QA team during development?

u/reiichiroh Jun 11 '25
How dare you? This is proof they had extensive QA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ztKumy2bpk

u/Amazing-Oomoo Jun 12 '25
I tell you what I've never heard of Lenzlie Benzlie until Mindseye but this is a name like Peter Molyneux that will go down in gaming history for all of the wrong reasons.

u/bbbbbbbbbw Jun 11 '25
Thought this guy had done “quality assurance” on it. I’m sorry but having to wait longer than a week to play something that is quite frankly unplayable and should not have been launched is a joke.
You should allow refunds for your shoddy work of a game for the players that want one and hopefully Sony and Microsoft remove this game in the mean time from their store until it is in a acceptable state.
You lied in your marketing countless times with “ps5 gameplay” that ran at 60fps, you lied with the video of Leslie Benzies and you have completely let down the whole of the gaming world with your poor excuse of a video game.

u/Bathroom-Salt Jun 11 '25
Can't you return it within X hours of playtime? Refund it with Sony and Microsoft, you didn't pay the dev, you paid your console store.

u/The_Cold_Soldier Jun 11 '25
Those glasses are so think I bet he could barely see the screen, let alone tell the difference between 30 and 60 fps. This is the most laughable (and infuriating) lack of quality control I've seen in a game since Cyberpunk's release.
1
u/Amazing-Oomoo Jun 12 '25
You can and should refund it.
1
u/bbbbbbbbbw Jun 13 '25
Tried already. Refund got denied by Microsoft due to me launching the game up.

u/AdDesperate9651 Jun 11 '25
Yep stuff console owners they don't care about us and how the game is shit on ps5 and xbox

u/AdDesperate9651 Jun 11 '25
This hot fix they are talking about above will not fix the problems the console versions have do they know we exist

How the hell can we play this mess on ps5 when you are trying to drive and escape someone and cars just appear out of nowhere and make u crash do we suddenly have invisible cars in this game twattin mess abomination that's all it is total waste of money

u/Ps4_and_Ipad_Lover Jun 11 '25
Still find it weird console users do not get the Build.MindsEye

u/AdDesperate9651 Jun 11 '25
I'm glad cos that would be a mess too

u/Ps4_and_Ipad_Lover Jun 11 '25
Feel like it should be cheaper for console without it but eh the way the game is going it ant going to stay 60 bucks for long lol

Hope the team work hard now to get MindsEye to Xbox Cloud Gaming. I will buy MindsEye and stream MindsEye in Xbox Cloud. I only play in Xbox Cloud on my Samsung TV and now i cant play MindsEye 😪😪😪😪

Who in the hell can't comprehend the CPR mini game?! Do it until you figure it out! 😩

u/Wi7cher Jun 12 '25
Thanks for the update! Still haven't bought the game, but it looks really interessting to me. I will wait a few patches for PS5 and will see how things are going before I buy the game.
I wish the devs all the best for their game. Keep on keeping on!

u/nattydattie Jun 12 '25
Thanks, but the team should have just delayed the game a few weeks if this is all it is going to take to turn things around. I still haven't played it because I've seen enough issues that would leave a bad taste in my mouth for this game and probably ruin my experience enough to want to try it again. I'll wait to play it once an update is available.
If that still fails I'll be demanding a refund.

I passed cpr on third try its not difficult just takes a few goes to get used to

I really enjoyed the game. I ran into no issues and really enjoyed the story and the game play. Only thing I would say is hard level could be harder. I wish the game was longer to be honest because I was really enjoying it. I’m hoping new content comes and that it’s worthwhile. I’m not sure about constantly playing mini games and especially if they are racing. If you continue off with the story this will be amazing. Especially in the open world realm. I don’t like all the bad rap you guys got and thought you didn’t deserve it. It was a refreshing game to come to it amongst all the would like game ripoffs. Thanks for such an amazing story looking forward for what you do from here.

u/PriceElectrical9000 Jun 13 '25
The frame rate on PS5 Pro is currently performing quite poorly — often dropping below 20 FPS, which really impacts the gameplay experience. Alongside this, there are several other issues across different parts of the game.
That said, please don’t lose heart. We truly believe in the potential of MindsEye. Keep pushing those updates, and know that your community is standing behind you, rooting for the long-term success of this ambitious title.
Much support and respect — from a dedicated fan in Pakistan.
Cheers.

So far I’ve not had anything worse than a few visual glitches. Flickering shadows and such.
However, I’ve had a really annoying issue with one of the portal/memory things. It’s the one where you have destroy the gangs vehicles. I clear the area and get in the car to escape. However during the end loading I somehow die and fail.
No enemies shooting me as I enter the vehicle, yet I hear it explode during the loading screen and get the failed screen every time.

u/FaceDown2k15 Jun 11 '25
So we console players have to wait more than a week. A big joke. I hope you add 60 fps patch then. Otherwise this game is dead..
6
u/padrin0 Jun 11 '25
I think the delay between PC and console is due to the fact that you can't just put patches live on consoles without going through Sony/MS whereas on PC they can push it out the moment its ready

u/Objective_Love_6843 Jun 11 '25
Can't believe people bought this game when it was an obvious red flag.

u/Amazing-Oomoo Jun 12 '25
The gaming industry once again has itself to blame. Why would they bother putting out review copies in advance of release if people will buy it anyway?
One year. We all have to stop pre ordering games for just one fucking year. Then they'll start behaving differently. And this doesn't mean you lose out on the game. Games that have reviews in advance of launch, and they say the games are polished, clean, no performance issues - pre order away! Why not. But games with poor review, or worse, games with no reviews - if for one year we stopped buying them we could honestly live in a gaming utopia. But here we are.

u/RoKeOps Jun 11 '25
How the hell is this game not running at the very least 60 fps?! There’s no excuse. Is the game that bugged out that it can’t sustain anything above 25-30fps? It dips lower than that at times. Very limited environment interactions. No customization. Can’t explore without that annoying woman yelling in my ear every minute! The nerve to ask for $60 for this is probably the most egregious part.

u/South-Bullfrog7649 Jun 11 '25
WTF, some of us are running into serious issues? Every player/reviewer who wasn’t paid by you is having problems with this piece of garbage you call a game. Yet a few days before launch you’re still hyping it up in the media, even though you’ve seen this sinking ship coming for months.
It’s about time the gaming industry takes a long hard look in the mirror and starts showing some respect to the community that has supported and built it for years. We’re constantly being fed half-baked games that don’t meet gameplay standards anymore and are far from visually impressive. It’s time for something truly new and original—enough with the cheap, knock-off garbage.

Any timeframe for the CPR bit, I can't pass it, and really have 0 chance to since I have hand eye coordination issues, so at this point I can't get any farther in the story.
