PS5 version is glorious. The art style is also beautiful!  

Jerry forgot he’s responded to every single one trying to reverse the ownage, but he just keeps digging himself deeper.    

LOL, looks like all of that LOL't   is making his breeches MOLTen'  

Weird, I had 0 issue with it on PC so far. But then again I'm running it at a mid-high settings combination, maybe I'm avoiding those shader issues somehow? I dunno.

Game has been running beautifully for me so far, only had 1 or 2 shader compilation stutters which weren't really a big deal.  Usually in the 100+ fps :pavarotti:

 

Devs already commented on it 

 

 

 

They're working on fixing it, as many of these smaller indie studios have had to do before... owing to the fact that Unreal Engine's default PSO and shader compilation method is single threaded, old as fuck, and not modern at all.  It works well for consoles, but not PC.  Which is why a lot of these smaller studios have issues with it.  They only have tech artists, they don't have low level programmers that actually rewrite how and when the engine compiles PSOs like The Coalition and Sony Bend.. And by the time they realize it, it's too late to fix for launch.  It happened to the Psychonauts 2 developers, The Ascent developers, and others.. which eventually fixed their issues with a patch.

 

It sucks but that's where the engine is at right now.  Not all UE4 games have this issue, but a lot of these small AA or indie studios definitely do.  Just like It Takes Two as well.

 

The good news is that they're changing it so that the PSOs aren't going to be compiled on the main threads "just-in-time" before they're called to be drawn anymore.. and instead they'll compile when the assets are loaded into memory on background threads so they can't stall the main thread anymore.

according to one twitter user..........if its an Unreal Engine 4.0 game, then it practically happens to MORE THAN 50% of all PC games.

 

and, at this point, they are "very tired" of it.

 

:ben:

 

So you could say I was right :drake: 

 

Another swing and a miss from Jerky:lawl:

I'm running it maxed out and have had only a couple.  100+ fps 99% of the time.

 

Looks like the PS consoles have their own stutters too :mj:

That Unreal Engine has issues that affect a lot of indie and AA games.

 

Yea, I did say it does.  Because I'm right. :drake: 

 

And sweetie... the state of PC gaming is still far better than console gaming LOL.  That's why Sony is coming to OUR house...  None of us wanted to go to theirs :hest:

Who's that according to?  Oh, the guy who owns a PS5 but doesn't play it?  The same guy who gets more entertainment from my twitter than his PS5.. LOL it's definitely not anywhere close to that pathetic.  I mean how pathetic must PS5 gaming be when you have one and don't even play it for months on end? :kaz:
