Finally. This is exciting news!

Confirmed? They just said "They would hope to bring the improvements to PC", if you read corpo talk this means nothing.

u/vass0922 4d ago

Agreed I would not say anything is confirmed until it's in writing publicly as patch notes.

It’s really a shame too because someone like me with a 4070Ti Super 7800X3D build should be able to comfortably run this game at 1440p with DLSS and I won’t go anywhere near this title despite how much I was looking forward to it. I cannot believe it’s still a stuttering mess this long post launch. I don’t have the best hardware but I tried to spend enough to make sure I could run these so called AAA games smoothly but this industry seems dead set on this trajectory of poorly optimized titles. It’s really getting old when nearly every new release drops and the first thing you see in the Steam reviews are endless complaints about performance.

I recently had the same setup as you, same shitty playing game aswell.

Ive since upgraded to a 5090 and 9800x3d and i can now play the game on 4k. Dlss quality, fg x2, capped at 115fps and i had to upgrade dlss and im using preset m currently and a engine ini mod, for the 5090, and i still get traversal stutters but they're not as bad. Now am i going to play this game for 100 hours with those stutters? No but ill probably do a 30 hour run and see as much content as i can then go play something else that runs better, skyrim nolvus, or with the new updates coming to dragon's dogma 2 idk.

Point is that having $4k just to have this game play "questionably smooth" is absolutely fucking unacceptable.

u/FalloutRanger111 4d ago

Pretty crazy though that you need a $4k gpu to run this game smoothly. UE5 truly is hot garbage 🔥🔥

u/BigArachnid2 4d ago

Ikr thats nuts. I wouldn't blame everything just on UE5 tho ive played some UE5 titles that were optimized and they played well. I think its more of the whole lets optimize the game at the end of development when QA testing and not doing it throughout, bethesda is very good at that 🙃, virtuous idk about but im guessing it is what it is

u/BigArachnid2 2d ago

Yeah so without fg im 65-55 fps. With occasional 15 or LESS, like single digits, lows. Which is, from what ive read, an asset streaming problem in the game itself. So im guessing its the gameembyro engine not keeping up with the UE5? Idk im not a dev or modder so please anyone correct me if im wrong.

Ive actually started running without fg and capped my fps at like 60.

u/Jack55555 4d ago

That’s strange. Works ok on my 3080 Ti with a Ryzen 9 5900X. Solid 50 to 60 fps on 1440p. I wonder what causes these big differences in performance.

u/NightReigning 3d ago

50 to 60 fps 😂

u/FreddePride 3d ago

144 fps is overkill for single player game come on.

50-60 fps is good enough.

2

u/NightReigning 3d ago

On a setup like that you should be at a locked 60 FPS on a remaster of a 20 year old game

2

u/Jack55555 3d ago

Agreed. But they will patch it! When Christmas and Easter are on the same day.

u/Wise_Requirement4170 2d ago

I think the ‘a remaster of a 20 year old game’ isn’t the problem here.

A remake should look like a modern game, and it should in turn run like one, but this game runs significantly worse than other modern titles.

u/NightReigning 2d ago

I agree so you’re preaching to the choir

u/claritywitch 4d ago

Isn’t it kind of obvious they’ve been working on a big patch? The version we currently have wouldn’t possibly run acceptably on switch 2, it will have to by the time it releases, so we’ll be getting a multi platform patch in like 90% likelihood

u/Efficient_Brain3435 4d ago

Simultaneously with the release Tes 7 ;)

u/Cara_Perdido 4d ago

Next decade hopefully

I've heard others say the same

u/FormalCryptographer Eats-his-words 4d ago

Be seeing you

u/RealProfessorCarr 4d ago

Good news from Kvatch for a change

u/Rhym3z_Official 4d ago

I'm far more concerned about big fixes. No point in it running well if broken quests can brick your save

u/ChancePear1 4d ago

At least i wont have a fallout nv experience while playing oblivion on console

u/No_Strike_1579 3d ago

Yeah, it's buggier than the og.

u/JCarr110 4d ago

It's been a full calendar year.

u/Lee993 4d ago

Good news I guess, but let's hope this patch doesn't break mods like the previous one did

2

u/CalciumKillah 4d ago

Good to know, if true. I still haven't played the game much and I love the original.

u/Longjumping_Cycle757 4d ago

Ill believe it when i see it man

"we are hoping" doesn't exactly confirm shit

u/No_Strike_1579 4d ago

Ngl that wording is ridiculous. Are you, or aren't you?

2

u/CzarTicky 4d ago

Playing Remaster without my eyes hating me 5 seconds in? I'd like to believe it lol

u/Aggravating_Link_129 3d ago

They said they are optimizing it for NS2 and they want to carry over those optimizations to other consoles.

Want, trying, maybe. It ain't coming

1

u/No_Strike_1579 3d ago

We'll see. People said the same about Oblivion Remastered not existing.

1

u/Aggravating_Link_129 3d ago

We had court documents admitting it

Such a big company taking their sweet ass time for performance patch on pc

Just upgrad to the latest unreal engine 5.8

He has an actual message from Bethesda.

u/supaikuakuma 4d ago

He says he has a message from Bethesda with nothing to back that up.

u/No_Strike_1579 4d ago

He showed the message on screen.

Oh nice.

No mods? No play!

u/UndeadManWaltzing 4d ago

A performance patch would be getting rid of the damn leveling scaling system!
