I am still getting pop-in on PS5 in resolution mode post patch, even in cutscenes.
 
The comment about fixing sharpness in HDR mode... that was something that kept me away from Res mode as the game looked way too damn sharp.
 
I am about 35 hours in,did my first solo Cauldron,still doing all the question marks and the like before continuing the main story but I still dont have the mask to breath underwater...cant wait to get that.

I am getting some weird loading black screens that last maybe 2 seconds since the patch,out of nowhere,freaks me out each time lol.

I loved that mission right after you get it. You'll see :hehe:

I've had the black screen when going into/leaving menu or workbench, etc.

I mean, look at the difference: res on top, perf on bottom

I dont understand why people are so surprised. This is clearly a visually stunning game and you're asking it to run twice as fast, the PS5 doesn't have infinite resources, what did you think was going to happen?

Also Quality is running at native 4K, performance is running at CB 1800p. That's a lot of pixels difference in terms of pixel count.

I'm reading more into the problem, its thought to be believed that their CB implementation is messed up. Which now that I've looked at more videos of it, that's just about what it looks like.

If that's the case, kind of weird since HZD used CB 4K/1800p I believe so GG should be familiar by now with that technique 🤔
 
Like most reveals, some things are improved in the final product and some things get changed or optimized. ( dont want to use the D word and trigger anyone).

But overall the reveal looked better. But the final game is still probably the most beautiful game Ive seen so far.
Can't wait to see it on my tv. Today maybe.

The SoP was probably the target. It came pretty damn close. Just the underwater parts, I wanted more saturation like in the SoP. All in all, still the best looking game on consoles IMO.

The first Horizon ZD was checkerboarded on the PS4 Pro and it is super sharp, even DF said it was hard to distinguish from native 4K. If I'm not mistaken this game on the PS4 is checkerboarded as well not just the Pro version and I think it may also have variable res but I'm not sure about that.
 
It happened to me once or twice too after I patched it. Before it, it was playing perfect.
I've had it happen twice, was riding in an area and the screen went black really fast then I was being jumped by rebels on mounts.
 
Not sure how far in to the game I am. It says 25% done overall and I'm doing the first of three main missions I was given at once. Have to say so far kind of disappointed in the game. I love the overall world still but story so far is meh and combat seems worse.

I'm sure some of you have seen these comments from me before but this is another game that suffers from some of my biggest pet peeves regarding cheese difficulty. Enemies warping from insane distances, or changing direction in mid air, going to through obstacles etc. I've also lost track when I'm fully aimed with a bow only for the arrow to clearly not go where I'm aiming. And unless I'm missing something, considering how many machines I'm killing and looting I don't feel like I ever have decent ammo for my best weapons.

I also think the game has way too many mechanics now. A lot of enemies weak to something but I never remember so now usually just use high tear/impact hunting bow to knock pieces off. Melee seems pointless on machines unless you use heavy to knock down and then critical attack.

I always R3 on the machines for a friendly reminder of what hurts them.

Same, as well as to target components I need, but when you are thrown into a fight, the R3 mechanics are so slow you sometimes don't have time to do check. I feel like the quick scan should let you know instead of having to do the full scan.

Uh yeah like 4 times in a row now my game has black screened while trying to adjust coils. Like I don't even change any now I just go to the screen, try to leave and black screen.

The patch seems to have done more bad than good. It was really good during like 95% of my run until they released 1.05. I was already near the end of story before patch dropped so only had 2 instances luckily.

Well seems like it might have been localized to a specific settlement. I was able to travel away and use the inventory later without issue.

Trudged through the relaunch cycle again only for it to freeze just exiting after looking at the map. This time no black screen just a static image while music continues to play.

As much as I loved the first game this one is a real disappointment. Think I'll put it on hold and finally give Cyberpunk a try.

It's too bad you are having so many issues, I've had the quick black screen once or twice that loaded a cut scene but otherwise it's been problem free for me.

I was able to finish the first of three missions at least. One positive to these consoles though is it only takes a few seconds to get back into the game after launching I guess? But it's annoying and depending on when the game auto saved before who knows how much I'll lose out on.
