The massive graphic downgrade is real. And here is proof (with screenshot)

Jesus christ dude, calm down! xD
I’m okay with the idea of the petition, but starting the text by saying that the game is unfinishied and full of bug, you’re overreacting mate… This game is amazing! You ever played other deep RPG? They are probably the most complicated genre to code so some bugs are normal. We all agree on the graphic thing and I’m also disappointed that the old “forest feeling” is gone, but it still looks very nice and its a great game! If you hope that someone will sign your petition then start maybe by praising the developer for the good part of it, not just bitching like everyone owns you something…

3AMt Well, I will simply refer you to this video that talk about this exact matter (that medieval woods was indeed very well managed). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVPUFMwm73Y
Yes you live there, but not in the time the game was set, so a wise men once said: “Please inform yourself better on the subject, especially how forests look in middle Europe.” :slight_smile:

Going well over the top now some of you are, I’ve seen the performance on powerfull pc in the beta and it was pretty shitty, blatantly obvious it was cut to make it run all round. Be realistic, you played a tech demo.

I’m a PC gamer and console gamer, own both, and these pc gamers who go round thinking any blight on there graphics is down to console are so fucking annoying, sound like little spoilt brats. Please Stfu. Whiney annoying, every game every forum same shit. Developers must look at pc gamers like self entitled spoilt brats. Give us a bad name.

I rly like this game and i didnt want to join this discussion in general
BUT to all people claiming there is absolutely NO DOWNGRADE or say something like “not the same light, position, time of day”…c’mon guys…

HW will have their reasons, sure…the performance now is horrible…wont imagine how it would be with the amount of details form the beta version. Maybe they will manage to get this work, maybe not! I’m fine with the graphics due to my rig can’t handle more details :smiley: But I can understand everyone who is asking for more!!!

Guys, please, keep objectively…saying “Moron” or “Noob” to everyone who complain about the graphics is even more childish than doing the cry baby’s job :smiley:

You’re joking, right? The graphics in this game are incredible. The game is utterly gorgeous, textures, LOD, lighting, etc, all the best I’ve ever seen in a game. They may have downed the graphics a bit because it just ended up not being realistic quite yet, but that doesn’t mean the game is suffering for it. I’m having none of the issues you are having. I keep seeing complaints like this, and I think they are coming from people with 1050+ cards. I have a 960, and don’t have any of these issues. No popping, no FPS drops, I don’t know for sure what the problem is, but my guess is the drivers for the higher cards are having a problem for some reason. It might be WH’s fault, it might be NVIDIA’s fault. What I do know, is that this studio has put AAA studios to utter shame in a lot of ways, and one of those is the hyper realistic nature environments. Except the rain. The rain is garbage. =P

Your standards must be pretty low if you think this game has the best visuals you have ever seen in a videogame. We are in 2018, not 2007. Crysis already gave us this stuff 11 years ago and when heavily modded, that old boy smashes this game’s visuals… 960 and no framedrops or popins? What settings are you playing it that you are seeing the best visuals ever? Anything less than Ultra High with maybe some settings at High looks last gen in this game. I have a 1080Ti and performance in this game is laughable. Then again, you might be right when you say the drivers are probably jacking up the higher end cards in this game, which is not too uncommon unfortunately.

CaptainJax gave me exactly the kind of comment i meant…

the Graphic is awesome…
where is the problem…
blablabla…

no one said the graphic is bad!
Read this thread carefully and you will see where the problem is :wink:

Actually this is the biggest case of downgrade ever. Now the game looks like shit, especially distance LoD.
This beta graphics can easily be played with todays graphic cards. Sure not with extreme 2K or 4K resolutions and 60 fps always, but this game does not need high framerate. Cap your fps on 40 and it works beautifully.

And this beta graphics should be on PC today, but it’s not because of stupid consoles . Btw, i have refunded the game because of this .

With my 7 years old HD 7970 3GB i was getting between 20-30 frames in Beta, and with todays high end graphic card i could easily have double the framerate. More then enough for me. I was planning to buy better graphics just for this game, but what we have today looks like shit!

Some Beta screens on i7 2600k and hd 7970 with fps:

Wow, that game looks good, I would love to play that. :frowning:

You have consoles to thank for the huge downgrade. And the irony is from what I have heard the game looks and performs like utter dogcrap on consoles LOLOLOL. So much for trying to retain “visual parity” between all 3 platforms HAH! If this game was properly optimised on PC, we could run Beta graphics no problem with today’s high end cards. Hopefully modders can do their magic but still if Warhorse does not optimise the game properly, any significant addition modders make will cripple the game even further.

No you don’t so you can stop lying your ass off. You have absolutely zero proof of this, go take your vendetta somewhere else, you’re just coming off as a bitter ankle bitter at this point.

Are you a consolite by any chance? Or a Warhorse Rider? Everyone here paid for this game, some more than others. We have the right to voice our concerns and disappointments. You did not buy the game for other people so you cannot silence others.

Nope, been playing primarily on PC my entire life, and i play KC:D on pc as well.

You’re not voicing valid concerns, you’re inserting a claim with zero evidence.

He is right. It is because of consoles, and this is not the first case. For example the reason why vanilla Skyrim looks like shit and lacks many features is because of consoles.

Btw, i work with Cryengine level design and assets creation. I have also worked with UE4 and X-Ray, so i know how engines work, especially Cryengine.

Has anyone been able to get access to the beta files? You’ll need a legacy version of Cryengine with the Pak Manager (not the free sdk). Anything 3.4.x and prior I believe.

Finally someone who knows what they are talking about and has the credentials.

@SirWarriant What do you have to say to that?

There we go! :slight_smile:

You didn’t prove jack shit. Anyone who played the beta can attest to how shitty it ran, even on the most powerful pcs 30 fps was about the limit, and during baptism of fire, it tanked well below that.

The alpha looked even better but, again the level of detail was simply not feasible with how large the game world was going to be. The only people who would have been able to play the finished game with beta level detail would be people with 1080 TIs, which the vast majority of pc players do not have access to, which would have resulted in the game only being sellable to a tiny percentage of players, which is apparently what you and @scorpgul want.
