OP
I did not think the game was stopping this bad while loading in those areas, on pc ssd it's more like a hiccup. In the digital foundry video, it's really bad :o
True about From Software on consoles, but at least on PC they've been excellent since Dark Souls II. I've seen some issues with the PC version of Jedi that are a bit surprising.
I'm on base PS4. I got to Kashyyyk last night and had to stop playing. Frame rate constantly drops. I've had the game freeze to load a few times within a couple of minutes. Before this planet I had it freeze for about half a second in a tomb. Now it freezes for a minimum of 4 seconds at a time. Textures not loading correctly. It's just a mess right now.
Is it just me or does performance seem to get worse the longer you play? The game was really stable for me early on, but when I progressed the story it started getting worse and worse. Dathomir's frame rate is TERRIBLE, and even going back to older planets now the game seems to run worse.
I will be there sometime today I think, so I'll report back what happens to me. Zeffo was much much better for me that the tutorial planet.
As far as seconds-long pauses go, base PS4 I still get them occasionally in AC Odyssey, most likely an asset streaming thing. Never resolved in patches.
That bit in the video confused me. Dark1x mentioned plugging in a slow external drive and then seeing a loading pause on the X. But what of you have an external that's not slow? I thought I remembered hearing a good external drive on the Pro could see a small improvement on loading compared to the interval drive.
Back on NeoGAF I had predicted that this would happen, most definitely for XB1 and at times for PS4. Things could have been stuck at those resolutions if it wasn't for the proliferation of dynamic resolution solution.
Either a patch to resolve some of the isseus is planned or betetr wait for next-gen to get this game patched (hopefully). No wonder the initial recommandation for this game on PC was 32 GB RAM and high end stuff.
This is probably the first game that I think probably would not have released in this state if Pro and X hadn't come out (though, I didn't follow Control extremely closely). I just can't see a game being released that has frequent 5+ second freezes on all console platforms, even if there is pressure from imminent movie release marketing synergy.
Hmmm, I shall install the game on the X's internal drive then. Definitely noticing stutters a bit too often.
This video is 21 minutes long? I'm all for in depth analysis but can someone give me a TLDR on which system I should get this on?
PC. Then PS4 Pro and XB1X second, PS4 third and base XB1 last. This game probably should've been saved for next gen.
Disagree. Sekiro ran better on Pro I feel. It being a lot less glitchy and studdery helps immensely
What timestamp do they talk about PC? Cause scrolling through the video and all I see is just the console coverage...
PC isn't in this video, another may yet come. That is answering the question "which system should I get this on?".
With the loading issues and uncapped performance modes, I think this is a game I'll save for the PS5.
My PC is at exactly the recommended specs down to the 1660 TI. That's the better option over PS4 Pro?
Shame, this is a really great game but it clearly could have used a few more months in the oven.
I guess that is what happens when you have a publisher like EA screaming down your neck.

They'd be foolish (and maybe even required by Disney?) not to cash in the new movie hype rather than delay.
Yep, it would have definitely been a classic if they let it fully bake. Hopefully they can at least patch out a lot of the performance issues.
I've never understood the mindset of releasing a game BEFORE a hyped movie, though. Why not release it AFTERWARDS and capitalize on people who want more?
Absolutely. What is a hard 5-10 second pause on the consoles is a couple frame stutter on PC. You should be able to get 1080p 60 with that card too.
I think because they want people to walk out of a theater and go straight to the store and buy the game that's already out and probably has a display
I was watching some streams of this and I could tell instantly that this game runs like absolute shit. The animations are stuttery also.
A show with no Jedi in it is selling a lot of copies of a Jedi action game? I don't see it.
Given the last two mainline Star Wars movies, hype is probably much greater before the actual movie is seen by the public!
this is so strange. i have been playing the ps4pro in resolution (30fps) mode and i have a ton of framerate issues. in combat, when simply walking around, there are always some short pauses and the typical framerate issues on-top. it does not run like in the video (99% 30 fps). during some combat sections, the dips can be pretty extreme.
my console should be fine, since i have no issues while playing death stranding.

I have no doubt the plot in JFO is better than anything the new film will offer up coming from the spoiler thread.
Yeah be careful, I made the mistake of putting this on my external drive and it completely fucked the drive up and now it's unusable
Kinda how I feel. I'm on the Xbox One X with a external SSD. The stutters and hitches are getting worse.
the game unfortunately also performs poorly on the Pro, stuttering and hitching is prevalent throughout the whole game with a few areas better than others
SSD doesn´t help with this
A single character driven Star Wars show sells a character action Star Wars game?
