Shifting my PC preload from HDD to my primary SSD as we speak...

You joke but people actually said things like this regarding Bloodborne's ridiculous loading.

Not going to say this is acceptable but considering the size of the map? I wouldn't doubt it has long initial load times.
And now go sit in the corner, no dinner for you, mister!

Yep. 38.5GB download. The preload went live at least the day before yesterday.

I'm on xbox one and embargo free since I got it via retail. Let's see how this goes.
*edit*
The initiall load sure is a doozy. Let's see how the rest of the game runs.

I hope this isn't the norm for this game, if so didn't the patent on playing games on a loading screen run out?

It's OK. It gives the player time to check the Internet, start dinner, or something else. That was the response I saw used for Bloodborne pre-patch by many.
Renegade Ops as the new loading screen game please!

LOl that would be awesome. Or Just Cause 2 as the Just Cause 3 loading screen minigame.

Lol dude Im playing the game on ps4 myself. I dont need df to tell me this game has major slowdown and hitching.
I put so many hours into that game before the patch. Fucking hell.
What's your best guess on how bad the drops are? I saw that you experienced single frames at least once, but are most drops to 25fps or are they 20 and lower?

Even better reason to wait for a good price on pc.

Hopefully SSD load times are a bit faster. I absolutely hate long load times. It was my biggest complaint with Bloodborne.

OK had to reboot, then I could get in. Odd. Here we go.

Actually thats not correct lol.
There are plenty of forced loading screens identical to the death screen.
I admit I chuckled.

Going by my blind eye? Id say it drops to around 20 fps or something close to that. It struggles to run 30fps at any time.

To be fair they are a two studio developer 😃 and UE4 was not an option when they started, with UE3 worse than their own stuff for next generation open worldsboth Mad Max and JC3 have been in development a long time. That said yeah they should switch to UE4 now and take the tool chain hit and leverage their own tech as middleware. I believe we agree that most major developers should do that, or similar, outside a few like EA's Frostbite success and Ubi's madness (since that's just hilarious by now).
Edit
Sony studios share a lot of tech, and have the ICE team to coordinate. I imagine Horizon/Uncharted 4 using different engines for instance is more a matter of the extra internal technical resources prestige first party studios get. In that EA has to make Frostbite do lots of things, while GG and ND can spend extra money to focus on just what they want.
It's really baffling. The load times are all over the place, going by my experience of roughly 7 hours.
I got really long load screens of several minutes (!!), but also sometimes only lasting seconds. The long times seem to be more apparent when dying. It really goes against the sandbox vibe of "go do shit, don't care about dying and respawn right where you were" they advertised, when i have to wait ca. 3 minutes to respawn.
And with challenges it's even more confusing, they have to load several times. I got times from a few seconds to minutes here. If you want to restart, to gain more points (let's face it, this will be often) it loads the complete challenge again, often with longer load times than on your initial try.
I hope, there will be sort of a second day-one patch. God, look at what i'm even wishing for, it's a bit pathetic, isn't it?

Www.twitch.tv/slasherjpc xbox one version
Am I wrong or is the framerate dying when there's an explosion, something that sorta happens a lot in this game?

So far it seems so.

The long load times are what happens when you create a so large and pointless. Smaller world with more shit to do and shorter load times is what this series needed after two, not a larger world with even less shit to do and longer load tomes.
Goddamnit, I've really been looking forward to this too. I'll wait to see if either console version gets patched to run reasonably well, but I'm not putting more time into another open-world game that runs poorly.

Man, that looks rough.
Haha, I felt bad that there was no helicopter. Scripting problem!

Honestly its been rare where these kind of FPS drops especially ones based around alpha transparencies and such have gotten patched up to suitable FPS. I would love to be wrong but it hits the consoles hard as hell. Spent most my time with the PS4 version and then another maybe 3 hours with the Xbox One other than resolution they both get hammered equally.

It's fun so far but def technical issues noticable.
