So I should diable AO in the game completely and then turn it on in nvidia control panel? What happens if I leave it on in the game but then turn it on in nvidia also?

Is there any way to turn off anti aliasing?I'm using a 4k monitor so it's a bit unnecessary.
Yes, turn if off in-game and enable using the game profile in the panel.
Not sure what happens if you turn both on, but Nvidia advises against it. Not sure why you would.
Servers are having issues right now. You can start it in offline mode to play the campaign.
Turn Post Processing to Low.

It probably does not work. Disable in game (set to off) and then follow the Geforce guide on how to insert HBAO+.

What does the 'Motion Blur' setting do? Is it recommended to leave it on?

I dont know why I would either, I was just curious about what would happen. Thanks for the help!
Tonight I'm getting home earlier than I expected so I may be able to play this a couple hours. I'm hoping I left my computer on to download the game but I fear I may have put it in sleep mode.
It introduces blur to fast motion in order for it to look more realistic. In some games it is also used to try and make lower framerates look less bad. I think it's entirely up to what you like. I prefer to turn it low or off.
Fun Fact: The movie Transformers 2 was rushed out the door so fast that they could not complete all the CGI. One example of this is a large portion of the final battle in which they did not have time to introduce proper motion blur, causing the CGI to look noticeably more fake than the rest of the movie.

I'll experiment. Thanks.
How do I confirm if it is?

Is there anyway to disable all the text menus at the start you need to skip each time you launch the game?

Downsample.
GTX 670 am cry :'(
So I have a r9-290 with an i5 3570k but I Tend to get 45-50fps at 1080p most settings at ultra apart from lighting shadows post fx and effects being at high. this doesn't seem to be representative of the performance others are getting 
anyone got any ideas?
edit im a moron. had my cpu downclocked for downloading while i was at work. forgot to turn it off. cpu was locked at 1.6ghz ! full 60fps now!

Games usually sync with the cloud on launch and exit. If you delete your save files then launch the game and find your save is still detected inside the game, it's downloading the save from the cloud before launching (as you would expect it to on a new installation of a game).
You can disable Steam Cloud just for now, to test it out.

I just played some, and yeah, you move like a snail. I'm getting more familiar with the controls and had a good time doing a side mission, but the menu navigation with a keyboard is a hot mess. Just being able to use the mouse would help a great deal.
Mouse looking stinks in cutscenes AND when zoomed in during gameplay.
Finally got to the open world area. At the start.
3930k @ 4.5
3 Titan X's at a modest 1412/8000
W7
Getting a solid 60 fps at 4K with all settings maxed, also using HBAO+, FXAA, forced AF x16, and HQ texture filtering.
First time running a game on 3 cards, so far the performance is nice. Don't notice any micro-stuttering, and all cards are between 45-55% load so far.

Probably end up shutting off the in-game implementation and inject another form of AA though Reshade.

Apologies if this has already come up, I didn't see anything on the first page.
Is DSR supported in this game? I didn't see the option to go higher than 1080p in the menu. I'm sure DSR is enabled currently on my nvid control panel end since I'm using it in another game.
Also: Is there any current way to get rid of the horrible shimmer aliasing that I noticed during the intro cutscenes? When I was in bed there was this horizontal bar on the other side of the room that had horrible... whatever it's called. Shimmering jagginess or something. I was hoping supersampling would reduce the impact of it at least, but if there's no DSR I hope there's some magic fix I can force...

What's the deal with nVidia and color calibration?
When I first installed Win 10 I calibrated my monitor. It makes a huge difference. Everything was fine for weeks. Then recently I notice the colors are faded again. If I reload my profile it stays for about a second, then disables back to faded colors.
The exact same thing used to happen in Win 8. I'm sure that it's nVidia software. Anyone know what to do?

As far as I know, EU exclusive for physical
You may need to re-enable it if you installed the Game-Ready drivers. The other game may still be using the high res because it's already changed it's settings before DSR went away, so it reads like ResY=3820, ResX=2160
Anyways just go re-enable it in the NCP. It supports DSR

DSR does work, make sure you have Fullscreen mode and not borderless window. THat should help clear up a lot of jaggies, but not all of course.
Damn that sucks thanks tho. I guess I'll pick it up on steam tomorrow

So mission 5 ( a really fucking long mission) crashed twice on me right towards the end. I was enjoying the game a fuck tonne and really impressed with the port up until that point. I have no overclocks of the sort so I have no idea what its crashing.
Not happy. The Checkpoint system just throws you back to the start no matter how far along you get (and I was right at the end after about an hour or so of patient stealthing).

Is this game any good?
It's not. I shared game to friend and he didn't get my savefile.
Thank you. Which compatibility setting are you using to get HBAO+, by the way?

If anyone's having the controller deadzone issue like in Ground Zeroes, just use that Durazno tool again. Works perfectly fine.

Launching the game through GeForce Experience usually enables DSR for me and the aliasing might be the lack of temporal AA
Ha! Congrats that's really a steal, grin completely justified
i have a grin too because i bought my 970 for 329 - 60 the witcher 3 - 60 mgs v= 209 hehe 
Anyway try these settings
Everything on Extra High
Shadows - High
Effects - High
Post Processing - High
DoF - Enabled
Motion blur - your choice, doesn't really affect performances (i put it on medium cause i find it a bit "disturbing" on high)
Volumetric clouds - No
According to my friend you should get locked 60fps with these settings. Tomorrow i'll tell him to try hbao+.
Compatibility setting? The game has it's own HBAO+ integration in the newest drivers released yesterday.
I have Ambient Occlusion set to Quality in the MGS: TPP profile in the Nvidia Control Panel.

Tell me man, you got me anxious.
I have most thingd max at 1080p and I'm getting a solid 60fps on my GTX 670 so I'd say go for it!
I tried this, I think it's stored in the cloud because when I loaded up the game I got a screen reading "Failed to create save data. Exit and delete save data." Weird....

Phew... Gosh, I've been holding off on installing this. Can anyone else chime in and double confirm this. I have a new install/clean pc and don't want to ruin it.
Ah, I see. You're enabling quality AO in the control panel, then disabling it in game? I assumed it was through Nvidia Inspector, force of habit.
Yes. Works perfectly.

I am enjoying my time with this more than my time with The Witcher 3 and Bloodborne.
Those are my top 2 games of the year. Are you saying this is better or that you did not like those games that much?

Does down sampling from arbitrary resolutions not look worse for you guys than native 1080p? I did it with Life is Strange but couldn't hit 4k while still maintaining a good frame rate, but intermediary resolutions looked super blurry.

This game is giving me crysis flash backs, and that is awesome.
They really shouldn't, perhaps change the blur % factor if you think they are too blurry.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
The Geforce guide says to turn off ambient occlusions in-game when enabling HBAO+. But there's no dedicated AO option. What do?
So ironically setting my mode to Fullscreen with VSync enabled as opposed to my usual go-to borderless window with no v-sync drastically improved my performance. Im running everything max at 60fps instead of having slowdowns with the window mode. Its usually the opposite.
I have 4770 with 2gb 770 and 16gb ram.

It think it looks great. Downsampling to 2560x1440 from 3413x1920. Using 25% DSR smoothness setting.
Did you get the latest drivers? It appeared for me under game profiles in the panel.

Hmm. I'll have another look tomorrow, what blur factor would you recommend?
Ok cool, I'll try 25% tomorrow

I adored both of those games. But I think this is better.
I'm getting dust drops as well I think.
Titan Xs @3440x1440. My GPU usage is only 30% on each card, but I still get the drops.
