Hmm... just downloaded and my resolutions is greyed out and just says 1080? Can't change it...
Save the settings at 1080p, quit the game, re-run the game and check out to see if you can raise it.

Also, make sure you have Fullscreen or Windowed as screen display options - borderless fullscreen in some games prevents you from changing resolution.

Ahhhh appreciate that. I def think I have borderless on as I have less windows auto HDR issues with that setting. I'll check it out, thanks!

To fix the resolution glitch, switch to windowed (pick your resolution) then switch back to borderless.

Just played through the entire Nibelheim section in the beginning, game runs pretty damn well. There was only 1 shader shutter at the very beginning coming into the town, after that and so far. It's framerate is running amazingly well.

I'm playing on Ultra Maxed settings at 4K Native/DLAA on a RTX 4090. The game's graphics are big step up from PS5 Pro.

For a day 1 version, game seems to be running VERY well. This is great news!

link for twitch?
Just go into the drops campaigns l, find the game and pick a channel that's got them enabled. Watch for 30 mins (you have to connect your twitch account to a square enix thing). Then after 30 mins, then connection site throws you a code you can enter into steam

It's not a glitch. The resolution option is disabled if you are running borderless windowed. The shown option is irrelevant. It'll be rendering at your desktop resolution not 1080p. The shown option is just the last picked resolution (in most cases the default, 1080p)

and 1 year late
your point ? i m not a "FOMO" and i don't have this urge to feel included when a game releases, if i need to wait a year to play a more definitive version i can wait AND even if i've already played the game i can admit that looked like shit and played like shit on launch.

none of the "upgrades" are worth waiting a year.
You are a fake gamer if you prefer to wait a year for a jump in fps rather than play a game you want to paly

Skipping bloodborne because it "runs like shit".
Guess you are not getting married too until you find hottest super model on the planet.
It's just games. just play them dude. what the hell.

And yes. Me being able to enjoy bloodborne at 30fps years ago and discovering how good forspoken really is, proves again, how petty you are and focusing and absolutely the wrong things.

Dude. We are gaming connoisseurs. We want to play our games in the best possible way - we want the best resolution, framerate, mod support ... everything. We don't settle in bottom of the barrel specs.

So spare me your 'fake gamer' bullshit.

Any tldr about the improvements? Finished the game already on ps5 but I'm tempted to buy it again for pc. Only if there are significant improvements though. Or after some spicy mods get released

he is an asshole. what are we pretending here?
And hell yeah, it's petty. Don't play the best game ever because it's 30fps... like how fucking brain limited does you have to be?
Especially if gaming is your hobby.
Just nonsense. not every 30fps is created equal.
And tech should not be more important than games.
Guess ps1, n64 and old pcs were unplayable too because my 3dfx1 ran unreal at 20fps

The game looked anything but 'shit' on PS5, modern gamers are just incredibly spoiled.

I still play my Mega Drive on real hardware and forced 50hz. I will also deliberately use an RF cable for nostalgia reasons, so guess I should probably see myself out this thread.

Is it reallt noticebale giong from 1440p to 950p in game?

That minimum res scale between 66-100 is way too wide. There should be 80% in there.

I played a little, but soon I have to go to bed so I stopped for today.

Game run like shit until I switched from V-Sync to VRR, that improved the framerate tremendously. However, when in Nibelheim - the town - I encountered numerous mini-stutters (the ones your eyes have to be trained to spot) in numerous places, from the center square till Tifa's home.

Stutters seem to have dissipated the second we left Nibelheim and began following Tifa in the mountain trail. Perhaps the numerous NPCs are the issue? Hard to tell.

I play on a i7-9700K CPU with a 4070 Ti Super.

Game needs a couple of patches and/or a stutter-fix mod to reach my standards, but by no means at all would I call it unplayable. I'm about 85% happy with the performance.

Micro stutters are usually related to game being CPU limited, check the usage of GPU in those spots?

Shader and traversal stutters are much bigger.

Glad to see SE put effort in to a PC port for a change, maybe I’m deluded when it comes to sales number but I doubt PC will outsell PS5 sales. 24k concurrent players is hardly mind blowing.
