I’m still waiting on Survivor to be playable. What a fucking shitshow of a launch that was, and I’m still lucky to get 40fps even with the recent update.
Really? I saw digital foundry showed the latest patch was solid 60fps on performance. Are you playing fidelity?
PC broken
Consoles playable but still glitchy AF with constant screen tearing and flashes of white due to overzealous occlusion culling.
Even though we’re seven patches down the line, if I didn’t know better I’d think THIS was the broken-on-launch version.
I doubt they will ever fix it. It’s not a live service so they have little incentive.
Supposedly 30fps mode is playable, but who wants to play an action 3D game at that frame rate.
FWIW I’ve been playing on PS5 in performance mode and haven’t noticed any issues. In fact I’m super impressed with how well it’s running and looking… finally.
It sucks the PC version is still having issues.
Does your display support VVR? Or have you not played too far into the game?
My tv does support VRR so that’s probably helping a lot. Are you getting tearing?
Yup, tearing is the biggest problem. It’s insanely bad, but I imagine VRR TV would clean it right up.
Other issues in game: White flashes when turning due to occlusion culling. Physics glitches, especially on secondary animations (things go wild with the costume when Mantis takes off). Characters sometimes not loading animations (T-posed pilot during the flight to a final confrontation mission). Game crashed significant amount of times for me to remember it being a thing… But tearing is just the worst. I’d probably rather have a stutter and I can’t believe vsync is not an option.
Same, from day one no issues all the way thru to the end of the game
to be playable
I played it from day one with 0 issues the entire playthru
Ok, and? Just because a few people didn’t experience issues doesn’t make it any less unoptimized. I’m happy it works for you, but your experience doesn’t really mean anything for my friend who still can’t play the game because it crashes every time a cutscene happens. I don’t go to him and say “well my game runs like shit but the cutscenes are fine,” because that doesn’t add any value to the conversation or help him in any way. Just kinda seems like I’d be rubbing it in his face that mine is working and his isn’t even though it’s not his fault, but EA’s.
I’m glad I haven’t bought it yet. I’m playing on Xbox, but was expecting it to be broke on launch. I’ll wait for a black Friday sale or something.
Digital foundry said the latest patch fixes a lot. I think it’s a good point to jump in. I’m waiting for a sale too now that it’s supposedly playable.
If you’re on console, now is the time! The recent update makes performance run buttery smooth. I hear PC is still having issues though unfortunately.
Playable, yes, but not a good experience.
It’s like watching “Oppenheimer” on a 300x200px GIF. Can be done, but probably should not be
Cool, can we complete it before launch then?
