I don’t have any noticeable fps slow down anywhere; never have which is odd because in FO4 certain places/situations had noticeable fps issues.
Seems like FO4 waits whereas KCD moves on but some bits lag. With (vanilla) PS4, hoping pop-ins return to 1.5 or better and that the improvement in rain can be tweaked a little more (slight pixelation in heavy rain). If had to, could live with pop-in performance I had with 1.5 and rain pixelation with 1.6.
You are getting the game in 4k so you can’t expect the best texture quality as well as res. You would need a powerhouse pc for that!
The assets were created for consoles so if the base assets have decent texture we should be able to get something decent. That assumes the engine and machine have the capacity to churn out the detail in a timely manner… if they don’t, then one of these seems likely to be the culprit
im playing on pc and get the pop ins just as bad as u my friend. not sure if this happens with any1 else. if i ride full speed pretty much into any town the whole town looks like it failed to load. if i stand there on my horse for a little bit the town and textures load a minute or 2 later. pretty weak. it dosent do that every single time but it dose to it alot.
Do you get a pop-in ‘wave’? At distance, the structure is there. But then, at an intermediate distance, it disappers … usually in part. And, as you get closer it pops back in.
I’m having so much fun with this game, but the pop in and texture quality is just killing it for me (PS4 Pro). The entire city of talmberg didn’t load for me one time, and now in uzhitz entire houses are just loading in with no textures, its just a big gray box in the inside. I bought a Pro so that I can play these types of heavy-content games, but its not helping at all. Hoping the next update (whenever that is) will fix it, as now its almost too hard to play the game since I’m running into things I can’t see
The game doesn’t run at 4k on Xboxone x it runs at 1440p and i much rather play on 1080p with high textures then on 1440p with low textures.
“You can’t polish a turd” lol
Well whatever its near enough.
It seems people are confusing what the actual issue is.
The problem has nothing to do with the graphics of the game. The problem with consoles is the performance of the game. The texture pop-ins are at ridiculous levels, and makes running with your horse pretty unenjoyable (is that even a word?), as you have to literally sit and wait for the whole texture to load, for walls to load, for bridges to show up, peoples clothing to load etc. In a game where IMMERSION is the key selling point, it’s a big issue.
Also the draw distance is terrible, but not as terrible as the constant texture popins. I would love for the game to resolve both technical issues, and considering how absolutely terrible they both are, I am 100% certain they can be patched up. There is no way that a Ps4 Pro and an Xbox One have such a limiation, that they can’t resolve these two issues.
Are your expectations too high? I really didn’t have as many issues as you with it.
Have the same problem on ps4, in Ratay the buildings disapear in front on me and then they sudenly apear again, this patch is bbrokenon ps4 
Well I don’t have a real contention with this game, as in may other posts I praise it with regards to the mechanics and gameplay as well as story. The mid gen step up consoles are not as bad with regards to what graphics the can achieve, and I can see this with various other titles out there atm that im playing and some can give a high spec pc a run for it money with how they actually look
My gripe is optimization witch seems to be the biggest issue here. I seem to find this with a lot of the smaller dev companies are having issues with the optimization on console. Funcom that does Conan exiles is having similar issues optimizing for consoles, though I will admit their game does look a lot better than KCD…funcom seems to have more issues with bugs. I don’t know maybe im just used to other games looking and preforming better on my ps4 pro lol Also funcom did not charge AAA pricing when they released their game. So I can give them the benefit with regards to some bad optimization and bugs, cause the game is not trying to be or passed off as a AAA title when its not. KCD is not a AAA game yet* and I do believe this should have been reflected in their pricing. Polish is defiantly lacking. Sure people can say it nit-picking, but when I pay a specific price for a game I expect to play and look a certain way. If it cant reach those standards it should not be sold in the AAA bracket. But anyway I still like this game…it just looks shite sometimes.
Yup this is what im experiencing lol you said it better than me
[PS4]
Patch 1.6 made this game currently unplayable for me which is a GODDAMN SHAME. Disappearing buildings, bridges, furniture in Sassau and Rattay (I dare not venture elsewhere). 1.5 seemed to be running fine until 1.6…
Please fix these issues and for God’s sake - please speed up the inventory/skill/quest/map menu!! Waiting for that shit to load makes the gameplay feel arduous.
Funny how people still think that this game will run as beautifully on Console than on a PC. Pop-up happens in ALMOST all Open-World games people. The consoles does not allow you to have a drawn distance as good as what you can get on a computer.
Logic as the PS4 and XboxOne has their limitations in term of processing power…
Exactly. People need to get over it. PC is worth it if you can deal with all that and the cost and Windows 10 fucking everything up. I prefer games for playability myself!
If kcd had Minecraft graphics I would still play it!
Was is it?
It does… blood on blades, and to a lesser degree now with 1.5 rain
Same. I’m on regular PS4 and I was riding out of Rattay (I rode out of the Upper Gate, but the bridge on the side. Hopefully you know what I mean. The one that leads into the town and that narrow street, not the courtyard with the guards & soldiers) and the entire city wall, bridge, and ground disappeared for a solid 10 seconds before popping-in again. It also took around a minute to load my horse (Al-Buraq) when it used to take 5 seconds.
I’m not expecting flawless graphics on a PS4. I’m expecting the game to be optimized and run smoothly within its limitations on a PS4. Right now I’m walking into a room in Sasau and people are sitting in the air and the furniture just doesn’t pop up. That’s a gamebreaker for me. I’m currently waiting for a fix instead of playing the game as before. Update 1.6 is a failure for PS4.
There are bugs in Skyrim which were never fixed today, they even made it to the Switch version! Lol. So it’s not that bad for an indie dev. Besides, some of these bugs can be system based.
