Oh boy. I really liked first one but no way I'm gonna buy this game to play 45fps/1440p on 4090 and i7-13700kf. Glad I waited for reviews. This year I got plenty of other games to play.

What are the tech issues?

I've noticed that the idea of what constitutes as "tech issues" varies from person to person.

For example, I always play games in Quality mode, rather than Performance mode, and only notice framerate issues if they're particularly bad. If a game is a consistent, or close to it, 30fps, I will never notice any performance issues. I honestly cannot tell you which games I've played have been 30fps and which were 60fps.

So, if I were reviewing a game, it would be based on Quality mode and would only reference tech issues if they were incredibly blatant to me.

Tech issues like screen tearing, crashing, being stuck in environments, etc. I am not even fussy about tech stuff.

We tried this on both quality and performance modes and had issues with both. We aren't alone in this as well. Just weird that some reviewers glazed over it.

Ah... Now that is stuff that I would definitely notice. In that case, you would need right; odd to look over it when reviewing it.

It could be, as you said, they're reviewing it based on potential, which I agree shouldn't be done, or they're reviewing it on other factors that don't really have much to do with the game (franchise bias, marketing people wined-and-dined them, etc...
Could also be that they just didn't experience those same issues. There have been many games that I've played where people have said they're buggy, broken, etc... (e.g., Fallout: New Vegas, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order) and I never experienced those issues.

Guess I'll be getting EA Play Pro for a month to play Dead Space and Star Wars Jedi Survivor. One month should be enough time...

So I can play any EA game on EA Play Pro without any restriction? Even latest releases?

 

[GustavoLT]

what about:

texture pop in
texture load stutter
shader load stutter
scenario load stutter

my complains about Fallen Order on PC

Never tried out EA Play Pro, but I'm guessing all EA games are available at release. BTW, EA Play Pro is only available for PC.

Here is the list of games. Wait for next friday to see if Star Wars Jedi Survivor becomes available...

The inevitable tweet promising bug fixes, performance fixes, crash fixes, etc that should’ve been addressed for day 1. Mess of an industry this has become.

Yeah, this is just annoying, and is partially responsible for why I occasionally consider just dismissing playing new games (basically anything from this generation forward) at all. Just focus on playing/replaying old games and develop a different main hobby.

Remember the launch on PC though?

Batman: Arkham Knight for PC pulled from Steam and retailers due to bugs

No ETA for when game goes back on sale, players recommended to request refunds.

arstechnica.com

I member. I had to play it at 30 FPS.

 

[dem]

The first game started off so great.... and then within an hour or 2 I was bogged down in some boring shit and I said "fuck it" and never touched it again.

 

[ajanke]

Seems like it will be good once you can play it. Got it on ps5 bc didn’t trust them with a pc one.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Yeah this is pretty disappointing.

A metroidvania game without the loot rewards to back it up is pointless

I’ll probably buy this later on sale

What? Dont you like cosmetics or something?

 

[FrankWza]

It was good but the combat needs to be better. Liked the story. Too many puzzles and climbing and not enough cool discovery for the back tracking.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

Gameplay length? How much bigger than FO?

 

[Northeastmonk]

Gameplay length? How much bigger than FO?

I read where it’s 20-25 for the main game. A much larger emphasis on exploration than combat according to Fextralife. There’s plenty to explore. There’s more open areas and planets have that Metroid type exploration where you’ll revisit. From what I read this game does backtracking very well. Fextralife said it had surprisingly good platforming, but not soul crushing enemies like a From Software game. This game has more of an identity than FO.

Where's my EA Play 10-hour early trial, Bruh?

 

[Arsic]

Pure shill shit. If the pc version is as bad as everyone is saying this doesn’t deserve anymore than a 6/10.

Launch all platforms working as intended or delay the game.

“day one patch and incoming weeks we will fix performance” cool how about delay the release that many weeks then bud.

 

[Neolombax]

I dunno, the technical issues dont seem to bother me, on paper at least. I mean I survived playing vanilla Fallen Order on the PS4, would it be reasonable to say performance of Jedi Survivor on PS5 is on par if not better than that?

 

[Justin9mm]

Oh Jesus.

WTF.. That's some insane pop in delay!

 

[MatrixReloaded101]

The inevitable tweet promising bug fixes, performance fixes, crash fixes, etc that should’ve been addressed for day 1. Mess of an industry this has become.

This is the exact reason I stopped buying games at launch.

They will not get my money and time until everything gets fixed. Why spend $70 when I can wait and get a better experience when the game is cheaper.

 

[SublimeCorruptor]

Seems like it will be good once you can play it. Got it on ps5 bc didn’t trust them with a pc one.

I'm playing on ps5 right now... I recommend waiting for the patch to download as offline it's barely playable.
I hope that fixes it.

 

[AJUMP23]

I was going to get it to play through before Zelda. But it seams there will be a lot of bug fixes, so I will wait 6 months and get it on sale.

 

[01011001]

curious that they don't offer one here isn't it?

The Shill is strong with this one

 

[Jimmy_liv]

Anyone know if you can do th click change trick on xbox and play this a day early?

 

[Slothbeing1209]

 

[ExcitableBoy]

Do we know which version runs better between ps5 and series x ?

 

[Dibils2k]

Do we know which version runs better between ps5 and series x ?

yeah digital foundry would be really helpful right about now

its worrying how bad people say it is but people also are hyperbolic

 

[MiguelItUp]

Do we know which version runs better between ps5 and series x ?

My understanding pre-patch XSX runs a bit better. But who knows with patch? We'll find out soon enough.

 

[saintjules]

Edit: HDR already talked about.

 

[aries_71]

Edit: HDR already talked about.

No mention of it being broken in the reviews… jeez, I wonder why…

 

[gow3isben]

Basically this would have been 90 metacritic if they waited a few months and polished the bugs sounds great will buy a few weeks after launch

 

[Otre]

Damn, they removed the user reviews on Steam. That VRAM requirement shit show really hurt.

 

[saintjules]

Just to note that Skillup played on PC.

 

[Luipadre]

One of the best reviewers. Not using scores and despite this being a great game he cannot recommend it because how unfinished it is currently

Performance has improved a lot.
The issue is that there is still a lot left to improve.

i stopped playing because the game still ran like shit in koboh.

 

[The Stig]

I really like this game despite performance.

So I got the bounty hunter glitch. I beat the first one and Caij wont tip me off about any others. Really sucks cos I love the combat and I've explored almost the whole game and havent found any of them.

I really hope EA fix it. In the meantime Ive just started NG+

edit - apparently a patch came out today to fix it! hooray!

It came out 2 weeks before TotK. Just only so much attention for these big AAAs when they launch so close together
