Did you fight the Tree Sentinel? I skipped him at first but now went back to him and yeah, that fucker causes a lot of stutter for some reason. |
Nope, haven't done any big bossfights yet, getting killed more than enough by the smallfry. Thought i'd get some better gear and lvl up first.
Umm, which one is the tree sentinel? will seek him out and check out the performance.
Edit: Ah, the guy at the very start,. Ill test him now

Well you managed to finish DS2 which was made by the "B" team and featured the cheapest encounters and had the most annoying gameplay of the entire Fromsoft catalogue, so i guess you can hang a feather in your hat for that one. You missed a good one in DS3. |
True. Tried to get into DS3, but was simply too jaded to bother anymore, although it looked and felt better again than DS2. The movement was really off to me in DS2, made by the B team indeed and it showed. Teleporting around the world, more linear levels, bland design, it wasn't great... Only the first area, Majula, looked like proper DS. Played Sekiro for 5 hrs maybe, no thx. Now, maybe with Miyazaki, Elden Ring will be another classic again... Wait and see.

Ok, played for a while now.
The stuttering seems to be the same type as it was in DS3, but while there it was a sort of microstutter, here's a bit worse. Started, got past the tutorial and nailed the first semi boss rather easily since the warrior's running L1/LB strike while dual wielding does massive damage.
Then, instead of going upwards towards the mounted knight, went left and down towards the beach. Killed big sword troll dude, and went all the way around left under the bridge and then back.
Some stuttering yes, but not constant (so far).
No DS4 derptroller button prompts tho

yeah the game runs really well, although i can't escape the stutter bug, happens mostly in the open world. are you running on mechanical harddrive?
performance really turns to shit for me using the horse 
everything is very smooth, and then it's just like.. what. where my frames go.
other than that the game seems great, i hope they can fix the problem. i also hope i can learn the controls on ps5 controller properly, because i am getting fucked up
i'm glad i skipped the entire dark souls series, i can see there's a fair bit of re-use going on here, which doesn't affect me
i'm liking the open world so far and the lack of direction/marker shit, kind of feels like the beginning of skyrim, except here you have much more thematic dungeons and obviously much better combat.

This port is shite... Performance sucks considering the visuals.. stuttering here and there...the fight with the tree sentinel was abysmal..Their engine can't handle open world properly?

The Early Demon of Boreal Access is inevitable, and poor Unbreakable Patches has a titanic job ahead of him 
I wasn't expecting it to run well on my toaster, but the Ring definitely has more problems and schizophrenic framerate drops than any other console ports of late - also considering the rather ordinary visuals. As an aficionado of the formula I've been enjoying a lot the first few hours of the game despite its inner deja-vu, though it's time for me to activate the patient bear mode to see if the situation can eventually improve..*summons miracles, sorceries and incantations*

Ugh, I love From and all of it´s games, but the stuttering in this one is unbearable. I dunno it it's just placebo, but forcing vsync in nvidia panel seems to alivieate the problem. Please try it and let me know. The game is great, but please fix this shit asap.

Been pretty smooth sailing for me after the first mounted boss. There's another open world boss on horseback that didn't have any performance issues.
So far after about 12 hours i have mixed feelings, too early to tell how it is compared to their other games. I can say though i'm definitely not liking the copy/pasted catacombs dungeons, even fought identical boss from the last catacombs i finished. If anything they remind me of Bloodborne's chalice dungeons which were objectively trash.

Yeah, dont see what the 10/10 were all for, yet. There must be something epic coming later.
Killed 5 bosses so far, only 1 was actually cool.

Sounds fair.. why have "safe zones" at all, typical game:y shit that doesn't belong in open world games.
Played 2h and nothing impressed me thus far (not saying the game is bad yet, it might end up a favorite).
* combat feels super unresponsive in comparison to HZD/HFB.. there's around 200ms latency, you press button, release, wait, then you roll or whatever. this of course will make everything harder because the mechanic/tech itself is just bad.
* very mediocre graphics and overall it's just ancient tech no plant physics at all for example (Morrowind have had it for 10+ years, a mod!)
* atmospheric otherwise, i mean typical DS stuff.
People say "yeah but the open world level design man, nothing compares"... really? i mean i've watched quite a few videos of people playing + playing (super tiny portion of it), i can't say i'm seeing it? Is it something that opens up later in the game and blows your mind?

The only thing that blow one's mind is the success of the immense hype machine and the cult(matrix)-like mentality of such a large amount of people.

True. I wonder if it's the port, poor performance/poor pc or is it the same on playstation. Its friking bad for a game that's all about the dodge timer. Git good at what ? At managing the lag.

Dled the yarr version and doesnt seem to have any hickups on my ancient machine with high settings. Reached the mounted boss and battled him a couple of times.
With the yarr version the anti cheat forces you to go into offline mode since it has "detected" suspicious activity basically disabling itself i guess.
Maybe easy anti cheat is the culprit of all of the issues or at least one big factor.
Not sure but the big exploit doing the rounds in souls games might have caused a half assed implementation of EAC and thats why some of the issues are coming from?
Was curious and tested out a dx12 to Vulkan wrapper to see if it affects anything(might have helped other ppl with issues) but didnt work unforetunately beause of easy anti cheat. Thanks fromsoft.

What I want to know is what happens to Dark Souls 3. It's still offline right (it was when I tried it last night)? And the solution for Elden Ring is EAC. Will EAC be used on Dark Souls 3 as well? If that game begins to stutter just as much when it comes back, the issue will be pretty clear cut.
From what I saw a few pages back though, the game is coded like shit even without taking EAC into account.

Even DS has that, so yes.. you just need to grind, level up, then take on harder bosses.
I'm 50, it's not like like i'm as good at gaming as when i was 20, i have to grind and level up, get the best gear possible, then i do bosses. The good with grinding is that you also get better with the controls, personally i need a lot of time with them, much more these days..
If you're not really into playing like that, then my advice is to avoid it, there are other games.

Oh yeah, guess that ~130MB update in the morning was this. Liking the game so far, but with what I've seen so far the majority of all the 10/10's that were thrown around were just game journos being game journos.
OR it might be related with the default female preset looking like a man "OMG soe progressive"

If the game can be completed like that and it isn't a complete chore, I don't mind. All depends on whether the game is rewarding enough to go exploring and such
There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

But not you right? |
You know, I'll tell you a secret:
You CAN like the game and remain an open-minded, swell guy that doesn't become triggered, offended, aggressive or... butt-hurt, if other people don't like the game or - even point out objective issues with it.
Butt sshhh... this must remain a secret. |
