it's clearly not resolution locked. there are already down sampled shots in the PC screenshot thread
there is no way in hell those are 1080p.Randomly generated stuff
Only hacked the FOV so far. I believe the Dunc has found the awful vignette which needs to be killed with fire, so I'm waiting for that (hopefully) to take any more shots. The game would look much better without it.

well, then im eating my panties.
t-teach me senpai, because im tired of the blurriness, im playing on a PC not a N64

try SSAA instead of FXAA, they seem to cost the same performance wise but SSAA is less blurry
most of the blurriness is caused by the vignetting, the scanlines, the chromatic aberration and the general murkiness of textures. we can't do anything about them atm.
Don't you have to hold down the mouse button to apply changes in the settings? I don't own the game, but I heard there is something strange you have to do.
Also, I believe you may have to restart the client for those changes to apply.

but, how i manage my game to turn from this:
into something crystal clear like this:
i really dont think its just an antialiasing thing, which btw i have it disabled
yeah, i discover this aberration of UI right at the beginning with the "Initialize E"
There is a lot of shader aliasing, unfortunately downsampling cant't do much with it
Would that explain the aliasing in a space station dock because there's literally nothing smooth there.

After nearly a week of listening to people who are insistent that "Sean was clear when he said there's no multiplayer," posts like this are hilarious.

If SSAA is on par with FXAA performance wise, then something is really wrong. SSAA is supersampling and will naturally be much more demanding than FXAA.

Sorry, what's this internal resolution lock?

Using the Elite controller and it's working without a hitch but does a weird flash on screen when you press the home button.

I think he's insinuating that the game renders at a fixed, low internal resolution and just resizes the window for higher resolution settings, which makes it blurry/low fidelity. A popular confirmed example of this is Dark Souls 1 without DSFix.
However, I've seen no evidence/confirmation this is the case for NMS. It does look like trash, though.

So do we have any idea what the biggest resource hog in this game is?
My 770 can't run a stable 60 fps.. Dips to 30-45 every once in a while. Is my card just not capable enough?

Please explain why using borderless would matter.

good point, but atm it must not be working then cus I swear it has no effect on my GPU usage. I'll check again later.
downsampling :/ those screenshots are rendered at very high internal resolution and then displayed at a much lower resolution to remove jaggies.

No, there is no locked internal resolution. There is chromatic aberration (which you can disable with my CE table) which gives the appearance of doubled pixels, and a variety of other post effects which give a slightly mucky look. It's very similar to what appeared in Alien: Isolation.
Here's an updated version of the cheats adding things like infinite health, pulse, thrust and warp, as well as a more convenient HUD toggle hotkey.

I am pretty convinced that AA is entirely broken, or at least it is in my game. Neither FXAA or SSAA look better than having the setting off, and I incur no FPS drop at all when switching to SSAA. Somethings definitely wrong there.

from what I understand, borderless ignores resolution settings and just matches window size

How did they manage this? What the fuck
So if my windows is running 1080p the game will run 1080p?
DSR won't work unless it's fullscreen.
Not only that, both options give you a super blurry IQ with hardly any reduction in jaggies. Just played a good few hours and decided to re-enable SSAA but then landed at a station and looked down the "launch tube" when I was docked and the further away it got, the blurrier it looked. disabled AA again and it looks a lot clearer.

Tried it. Didn't change anything. Still getting severe frame drops when moving to new areas.
I tried the Elite controller and it worked fine but I actually think the Mouse and Keyboard is way better for this game, specifically for mouse looking. I'm not a KB+M evangelist either, vastly prefer the controller for TW3 and the ilk, I just honestly think it works better here.
Is NMS a Unity game?
Does it matter (custom engine iirc)? Unity or otherwise this isn't exactly unprecedented.

he didnt said that. he mention that to downsample borderless games you need to up your desktop resolution, same with unity games which are always borderless
No, I was using Unity games as an example.
That's how borderless work even with the best ports.
I've noticed that the framerate spikes are accompanied by huge spikes to CPU usage. Usually when flying around a planet or re-entering atmosphere. Running a 5820k @ 4.2GHz and this game will spike it to 100% usage for a split second at a time, TW3, FO4, and other demanding games don't even do that. This game seems like it has poor PC CPU utilization, especially considering the potato CPU in the PS4 runs the game without much stutter.
I tried down sampling from just under 4k and it didn't look that much better despite the massive performance decrease.

But classic downsampling does work though in borderless! Edit: This sentence made no sense, ignore it.
Edit: Well not exactly CLASSIC, you do have to set your desktop at the desired resolution.
What?
-bakalhau-

Yeah, looking back I'm not sure I made any sense xD
I always forget DSR is absolutely the same as creating custom resolution in Nvidia CP, it just enables resolutions that you can then choose in game. My bad.
Either way, you can downsample in borderless, by creating and choosing a desktop resolution to your desire. Change it in desktop, it will change in-game then.

Seems broken. I was playing with it during the review and stream and lost the same FPS for both lol

so i have to downsample for remove that shitty blurriness? that seriously sucks because have they made the game look as sharp as those screenshots would be awesome,
They probably wont acknowledge it because it doesnt exist
