Are you running fullscreen? Have you attempted to see if the Borderless window workaround does anything?

It's worse for sure. I finished the game on PS4 and while the pop in was there it wasn't anything like this.

From what I've read it's a little too demanding even with everything set to low and some real issues that aren't happening to everyone, sound troubling. I was really hoping for a smoother launch

Yep. Fullscreen on my TV.
I guess I gotta wait for a patch. Dont wanna fiddle around.

Then lets not call it a good port yet when people ask.

What card? If you're running fullscreen there's a good chance you're not actually rendering that resolution.
Running this with a 970, 16GB RAM, 4690k @ 4.5ghz and the performance is uneven depending on the area. Past the tutorial, the open world part with all the grass tanks the framerate. Though that's at 1440p. At 1080p it sometimes hits 60 but hovers around 55-ish. Adjusting settings around such as lowering AA or disabling AO makes it a solid 60 for the most part. Unsure if I should just stick to the PS4 version or play this instead. It's nice not having all the stuttering when running towards a new zone on the PC. On the other hand that 900p + inconsistent framerate is blegh on the PS4. I suppose I could just use my 1080p monitor instead but then I'd lose the benefits of G-sync since the performance at 1080P isn't rock solid depending on the area.
Hoping for a patch (or maybe a game ready driver) that optimizes performance or adds some more settings to tweak.
Also that fullscreen bug is bizarre. On my 1080p monitor, using fullscreen at 1080p results in 1680x1050 but setting it to windowed and hitting alt+enter results in borderless fullscreen with native resolution. On my 1440p monitor it uses some weird in-between resolution and I'm not sure how to check what it's running at exactly (monitor doesn't report it unlike the 1080p monitor) because it's not quite 1080p (looks better than "windowed" 1080p) and it's definitely not 1440p since "windowed" 1440p looks better.

Okay, so I think the Commander was supposed to give me a mission, but I never spoke with the CMDR. Now when I go see her she's like, "go do the mission" and I'm like, what mission tho?
Do I need to start all over?

If this is the first area after the tutorial, go find the hangar elevator.

rx470/rx480 users with white screen:
fixed the problem removing the gpu driver with AMD Clean Uninstall Utility​​
reinstalled the latest driver and it's working fine now.
edit: nvmd, same shit. i'll try rollback to ancient drivers. i want to play it so bad.

So here we go, everything is maxed out, 1440p borderless window:

Titan XP
And I don't seem to have a problem with full screen so far. I can most definitely tell when the resolution is not right, and even DSR works up to 6880x2440.
Edit: scratch that, I just started the game for the second time and now it's fucked.

I've been in the grassy area, desert as well, and I haven't noticed any pop-in. I'm sure some exists, since it's an open world game, but if it was really bad, I would've noticed in a heartbeat.

Is that just different armor or why does your 2B look like that? Asking for a friend

Hmm doesn't look THAT bad (watching on my phone). I am pretty sure that it was even worse in Attack on Titan.
Are we sure PS4 is better than this?
Self destruct + heal after that= no skirt.
Oh I disabled self-destruct at the start, I've made a huge mistake

PS4 recording quality is terrible, but I tried to match up the scene.
There's some similarity with the pop in for both but for some reason it stands out a lot more on PC (besides the recording quality).
I'm in the same boat, but with a 6700K. Everything high, but MSAA at 2x isn't stable.
I found that disabling Vsync and capping the framerate with Rivatuner helps quite a bit. If they fix the pop in, it actually isn't that bad.

I have a Titan XP and I thought it was 4k as well, but I was wrong. Try windowed mode and watch your FPS drop =P
I had to drop my resolution to 2880x1620 to maintain 60 FPS in the City Ruins.

Does the game not have native DS4 support? Plugged my controller in and it's not recognizing it.

Any suggestions at all for me? Logos load, the terminal style loading shows, and then the message after but than the screen goes black and all you can hear is the music or cutscene if you wait. I can navigate the menus I think just by audio feedback but the game doesn't show up at all.
Other games work fine so my graphics card isn't exploding or anything. Have a 980ti, and 1440P gsync monitor and the latest drivers. Tried setting monitor to 60, turned gsync off, and tried on both my tv and monitor. Just goes pure black after the initial logos and load :/
Really want to play!

I've had it twice already on the exact same place... And you can't save during the tutorial, meaning I'll have to replay it once this gets fixed...
its a good port, just like dark souls 1 was a good port. its not a bad por tlike saints row 2 or arkham knight. the game is completely playable, it has issues with full screen and popins. Anyone complaining about not being able to play it on a 2gb vram card should just stick to the ps4 version.

I'd still be careful, of course. I mean, there's video proof floating around of people having the issue on their hardware, so it does exist. I couldn't say what's causing it.
Maybe I need to play a bit further
Running around now in the grassy area outside the resistance camp in Windowed at 3440x1440 and it doesn't drop from 60 at all.

For the cost of a PS4, I could have a 6GB card that would last me just as long.
Some of us don't really have the easily expendable funds for either!

Well I guess that resolution isn't many more pixels than 2880x1620 so yeah it should be good. At 4k though I got big drops in windowed.

Seems to add a smoother fade on the PS4 version so the effect stands out less.

R9-390, i5-6600, 16GB.
After 3.5 hrs of play, im getting a pretty steady 60fps. There is some fps wonkyness in the City Ruins, where it dips down to the low 50s. Doesnt happen in all areas, but some its a constant. :/
I have noticed some popin, but not to the extend of what some people are posting in the thread. Again, its in the City Ruins which seems to be the worst area of the game that ive come across so far.

I actually got a bit further and further with each attempt. I dunno what causes it :/

How can I be the only one with this black screen issue? It's even crashing steam.
Tried verifying the game data?
After using borderless gaming, man this game looks pretty damn good at high resolutions. Texture res is a little low, and lighting is pretty flat, but the art design is top notch.

Yep :/ Even re-installed
