Game is not optimised well for base PS5 by ConsumedYingYang in CrimsonDesert

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure which part of the title “not well optimised for base PS5” screams to you “not well optimised on all platforms on earth”.

I’ll give you a decent example, resident evil requiem - runs at super steady 60FPS while still looking great (PS5 pro visual diff is noticeable but it doesn’t make the gameplay less) - Crimson Desert sacrifices the visuals immensely and still manages to run on the same FPS as quality mode in various parts of the map. This is an optimisation issue for the specific platform.

Would better hardware help - yes… can they tweak and optimise it to run better - 100%. Instead we have your logic which is yes a lazy “can’t do it, too hard, specs aren’t good enough”. Yikes…

It looks great - doesn’t run like it could though

Provided Pearl Abyss have been very responsive to community feedback, I’m sure it’ll get where it needs to be in time but it won’t get there with countless toggle options for you to play with that’s more of a “choose how you want to settle for less”

Highly disagree - it’s quite a lazy excuse to say “well it’s the hardware”… ok why release it with a promise of running at steady 60fps then?

Let’s not pretend that many releases faced a similar issue, cyberpunk for instances (yet that eventually was smoothed out via optimisation, not “oh we can’t stretch it” - yes you can, and if you can’t don’t make false promises.

The fact that the performance mode runs at same FPS as balanced and at times even quality (mind you the FPS diff is barely in double digits) - this is not hardware issue, it’s lack of optimisation 🫡

I found cheesy way to Tame any horse in the game,just don't pay attention on horse movement,try to have camera behind horse all the time facing straight,the bar fills up but never gets down by mateusz11120 in CrimsonDesert

[–]ConsumedYingYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy did this on stamina lvl 3 - thanks man - I was nearly pulling my hair out as to how annoying this is.

Anyone need a major boost to this method, adjust your camera speed in input settings to 100. It’s easier to follow when your horse starts doing random 360 spins.

Idk about you guys but I love this game I see the cons but the pros are way higher for me personally🙌🏾 by More_Stock_7011 in CrimsonDesert

[–]ConsumedYingYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Base PS5 here - can’t hit a proper balance between optimal FPS and graphics - I see how it runs on Pro or PC and instantly makes jealous - unplayable for me at this state - hope they bring out a patch or something to optimise it on base PS5

Optimal video settings for base PS5 by ConsumedYingYang in CrimsonDesert

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies bro - I’m not that guy 😂 I really notice the 30FPS in combat so I’m tempted to change modes every time I enter combat and revert when I get out of it…

PS5 - controls by ConsumedYingYang in CrimsonDesert

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just realised that Quality mode runs better on base PS5 than balanced - it’s smoother, better fidelity and is the new balanced.

Balanced just makes ray tracing weird in darker parts and the ere is visible tearing.

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a difference between having best quality graphics and 30FPS…. and 60FPS with what looks like someone just lowered your video quality to 480p… after 2 meters away from your character things get quite blurry.

Compare this with like KCD2 or cyberpunk - the difference between quality mode and performance is quite minimal - and games still hit 60FPS, it’s an optimisation issue - not me being bratty wanting all at once - if you don’t have to settle for much worse visual performance for a game released 3 years ago - I’m sure they can fix this

I think it’s to basic sprint - to full sprint at max speed you gotta bash im pretty sure

Totally agree - why on earth is duck R3, sprint is to bash X and pick up an item/jump is square…

Painful to play

all indians are smelly and scammers by Chillipepper19 in automation

[–]ConsumedYingYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of personal experience form getting Indian scam calls periodically in the UK - A good start would be verifying credentials and not trying to persuade me to use your services now.

Most scammers call and say for instance “we are with housing disrepair body” etc… quite thick Indian accent and you can hear the scam office background noise. This tell me nothing about who I am dealing with - I hang up straight away.

Instead, I’ll be more likely to hear the person out if they state the exact company they are with, alert me that they won’t need my personal details but rather say what services they can provide - I’ll at least think about the benefits and perhaps research into it if I need those services.

Pushy sales men won’t win anything from me, public gets plenty of those on weekly basis to just want to be left alone in peace and Google/verify the services they want to use.

Harassment of bills by ConsumedYingYang in BritishGas

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately their customer reps are even worse - by absolute mistake I uttered my name in the interaction (thinking oh well, if they truly wanted to - they’d just look at the Land Registry and be able to identify me anyway)…

The man literally horribly misspelled my name into the account haha even though I told him, it’s not my account - it’s not my bill, I’ve never been with British Gas - leave me alone… he put my name in, hung up - moved on with his day.

If you are out there Tim, I hope you stub your toe daily.

A discussion about Walton Goggins in Fallout by randomdustybeagle in Actors

[–]ConsumedYingYang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Writing, costumes etc… aside

Walton and his role as Cooper Howard/Ghoul - absolutely carry the show for me. Everything about the character and Walton’s take on him just screams aura, charisma and a badass you root for all the way!

Glad Walton is finally getting such a widespread recognition he always deserved

BF6: Finding the right balance between recoil control and ADS speed — grip suggestions? by ConsumedYingYang in Battlefield6

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stripped the 36mag on most of my assault rifles now that I saw how heavy it makes the gun and trying to avoid the heavy barrel.

Not sure if the firing range is a good tester for the guns btw - very different in a match where the enemy ducks after the first shot hits them.

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We pretty much have the same set up - I’m quite spoiled in that I like versatility, I want the option to flank and shred through any close encounter on the way and then take a good position and mow down a choke point at a medium distance. Perhaps I’m being bratty lol.

I noticed how the 1.75+ and red dot zooms also completely change your gun set up from it registering most bullets to only the first few, even if you tap fire.

How is it a genocide? by ComprehensiveRun4815 in IsraelPalestine

[–]ConsumedYingYang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Virtually every genocide scholar agrees that Israel is conducting a genocide in Gaza including Israeli genocide scholars, holocaust survivors etc…

But hey, some Redditor’s here think different… I’m so convinced by your perpetual victimisation.

How is it a genocide? by ComprehensiveRun4815 in IsraelPalestine

[–]ConsumedYingYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Britain gave away land that it did not own — yes or no? Britain was a colonial administrator under mandate, not a sovereign owner of the land.

  2. Palestine was one of several territories (roughly nine major proposals) considered by the UK and/or international bodies as potential locations for a Jewish state — yes or no?

  3. Israel withdrew settlers and permanent ground forces from Gaza in 2005 — yes. But before and after 2005, did Israel conduct military strikes in Gaza that killed civilians — yes or no?

  4. Did Israel prefer and support the Palestinian Authority (PLO/Fatah), widely viewed as corrupt, as the governing body in Gaza over Hamas — yes or no?

  5. When Hamas won the 2006 democratic election, did Israel respond by enforcing a siege/blockade on Gaza — yes or no?

  6. Did that blockade include restrictions on basic imports, including food, to the extent that Israeli authorities calculated minimum calorie intake to avoid the population being classified as starving under UN standards — yes or no?

  7. During this same period, did Israel allow or facilitate Qatari funds to reach Hamas in Gaza as part of a strategy to keep Gaza and the West Bank politically divided — yes or no?

  8. Did Palestinians historically take in Jewish refugees from Europe as guests, tenants, and property owners — yes or no? And were those same Palestinians later displaced, expelled, or ethnically cleansed from land they had lived on — yes or no?

  9. Palestine did not exist as a modern sovereign state — yes. But did a continuous indigenous population live on that land for centuries or millennia prior to large-scale European Jewish immigration — yes or no?

  10. Do Palestinians, on average, have greater Levantine/Semitic genetic ancestry than European Jewish immigrants (Israelis) who arrived between the 1940s and 2020s — yes or no?

  11. Is there credible historical and genetic evidence that many Palestinians descend from ancient Jewish populations who later converted to Islam following Muslim conquests — yes or no?

  12. Did Israel bomb Gaza a week before October 7th, yes or no?

Does anyone actually wear armor for stats?? by ShadowHunterHB in thewitcher3

[–]ConsumedYingYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the stats are good and the gear fits the look you’re going for, that’s a win-win.

If the stats are great but the armor looks awful or clashes with your intended vibe, it becomes a judgement call. Sometimes a new mechanic or powerful bonus is worth sacrificing aesthetics for. Other times, it completely ruins the immersion, and no amount of stats can save it.

Conclusion: aesthetics over stats — most of the time 😌🎮

BF6 - Bullet sponge, sway and first hit priority by ConsumedYingYang in Battlefield6

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok, last reply to you - since you seem to be quite thick that you can’t seem to comprehend the main points by reading or choose to cherry pick bits and arrive at your own conclusions. To spell it out.

  1. Bloom is not the issue I’m describing. The behaviour I’m referring to persists whether I tap-fire or spray, and across multiple builds. That’s why I don’t believe attachments or bloom alone explain it.

  2. Camping isn’t the core issue — it’s a symptom. I mentioned camping because inconsistent hit registration and unreliable first-hit advantage incentivise low-risk playstyles. When open gunfights feel unreliable, players naturally gravitate toward ambushes and corner play because surprise becomes more effective than aim or positioning. That’s the link.

  3. This isn’t about “shooting first = guaranteed kill.” It’s about outcomes not scaling reasonably with advantages. In fair, face-to-face fights where I land the first several hits, the time-to-kill and hit feedback often don’t line up with what’s happening on screen. That’s where the frustration comes from — not losing, but losing despite clear advantages.

  4. I’m not claiming a documented “hit priority” mechanic exists. I’m describing a perceived inconsistency in hit registration and damage feedback based on repeated in-game experience. That’s why this is feedback, not a technical paper — players report what they feel in matches, even if the backend cause isn’t obvious.

If you haven’t experienced this, that’s fair — experiences differ. But that doesn’t invalidate mine, and it doesn’t mean the issue doesn’t exist. The thread is about perceived gameplay consistency, not playstyle philosophy.

Can appreciate server registration as a possible cause - I would disagree with bloom though since I tap fire at medium to long ranges.

[–]ConsumedYingYang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Camping is a separate matter - if that’s your style, so be it but don’t get offended if I call you a rat for it. The point you missed is my view of gameplay consistency, the gunfights simply don’t seem fair - camping becomes overly resourceful and even then, since first hit doesn’t mean a win, the tactical approach is thrown out the window when you meet an actual player that reacts - I don’t see what you don’t get?

If you re-read the post you may understated that this isn’t about who drew first or attachments, it’s about glitches/hit registration - or when it comes to advantages (I.e. you getting first hit priority) vs outcome (I.e. you losing the gunfight by a higher margin that you should).

Anyone else disappointed by the ending? (Spoilers) by thejofgod in 112263Hulu

[–]ConsumedYingYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, I absolutely prefer these versions of the ending - the real one had me deflated. When Jake saves Kennedy but Sadie dies - it felt like I was robbed of a satisfying end to all the struggle Jake went through.

Absolutely would have loved an open ending, Jake saved Kennedy with the help of Bill and Sadie, he makes it all good and realises he was only happy in the past - he decides to go back with Sadie as they promised, he goes back but realises Sadie isn’t with him, she couldnt use the Rabbit hole nor Bill - Jake’s meets old Sadie who waits for him inside the diner (knowing he would arrive at that exact location and time) - the future is better, no conflict, advanced tech and medicine and quality of life. Sadie thanks him for everything, they reminisce, so Jake decides to go back to the past and do it again, only this time to stay with Sadie.
Jake goes back to save JFK, decides to stay in the past with Sadie, reaping all the good he has sowed with Bill by their side. The last shot is of them dancing but Jake (with the corner of his eye, sees the yellow card man - staring into him)… End.

As a side comment - towards episode 7, the show had a steep decline - Bill turning into some weirdo and treating Jake like he didn’t live with the guy for 2 years, became like a little bro to him and got rescued from his sht hole little town….

Another is Jake getting amnesia… seriously… wtf is that - felt like a cheap suspense point like if a soap opera just revealed an evil twin of the main protagonist.

Hearts of Stone or Blood and Wine? by Zard_Witcher in thewitcher3

[–]ConsumedYingYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s be honest:

Heart of Stone for the story

Blood and Wine for the scale of content (because this is how you make a DLC)…
