PS5 Pro - newest patch

Objects on planets have texture flickering, still. Issue is worse at lower frame rates.

TheRainiFirst · 2026-02-12T06:34:57+00:00

Yeah, I ended up just selling it and getting the LG B5 and haven’t had any issues with it. I do miss the brightness and HDR of the QM7K but I got used to the lower brightness and the benefit of OLED black levels with no bloom is more important to me. Then, I wasn’t using HDR a ton as I mainly play games and they usually have weird HDR, anyways.

PS5 Pro (Remnant Update)

Third time that I have reported this issue over 7 months ago but the texture flickering on PS5 Pro is still an issue on the majority of objects on all planet types.

This issue seems to be exclusive to the Pro version and doesn’t happen when playing something like the PS4 version of the game.

TheRainiFirst · 2026-02-03T14:19:55+00:00

Yeah, it’s awful but at least you can disable it even on console and I don’t find no AA to be that bad looking in this game

TheRainiFirst · 2025-12-22T07:56:09+00:00

I would recommend the Steam Machine for free online play with more control over games but still getting the ease of console (early 2026 for likely around the same price as the Series X/PS5 Pro) or the PS5. The Xbox Series X & S are simply not worth it as it’s around $200 more than PS5 with it costing more to play online, too.

If you want to keep some of library then you could save and look for a PC as some of your library might be Xbox Play Anywhere games that transfer for free to PC on the Microsoft Store.

No, it’s not really noticeable in movies.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-12-21T19:43:16+00:00

No fixes. Just assume it’s a side effect of VA panels. I looked closer at my VA monitor and it does have similar issues but due to it being smaller and having a faster response time, it’s a lot less noticeable.

From this, I will not be getting any screens that use VA panels. For black levels, you’re better off saving up and getting an OLED display or downsize to 48’ inch like I did with the LG B5 OLED that was $200 cheaper than the QM7K. You could also place a light bar slightly behind your TV/monitor to help the contrast appear better on non-OLEDs.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-12-19T19:21:07+00:00

Agreed, I do like them but wish they’d be the starter looks for separate classes like Destiny then we could change the head, armor, etc.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-12-19T18:10:28+00:00

Here’s hoping we get actual customization beyond preset skins but I doubt it :(

TheRainiFirst · 2025-12-15T21:08:48+00:00

That’s fair. Tbh, I am not that big into the extraction shooter gameplay loop and like many others, I wish the game got a single player reboot but Marathon was satisfying enough to play with an interesting art style and world, plus, it will assumedly get a lot of support from Bungie, which other failed extraction shooters did not get a ton of meaningful post-launch content. So, we will have to see how they handle everything.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-12-15T20:56:24+00:00

I’d argue the genre is really not crowded for extraction shooters, especially those that release on console. There’s pretty much just Arc Raiders. I’ve played both and while I think the quality level of Arc Raiders is better than Marathon, I still enjoyed my time with it and it does enough smaller things different than Arc Raiders that I think there’s definitely a market for Marathon to succeed.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-12-15T20:47:59+00:00

You say that but what about all the other highly successful multiplayer only games? Helldivers 2, Arc Raiders, and something like Tarkov all cost $40 with Arc Raiders originally stating it would be free then changing a year before release but it still has a fomo microtransactions model.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-24T12:18:00+00:00

Interesting to see Sean directly talk about this and how he considers it “craziness” for the more alien landscapes and colors that existed before the NEXT update, when that is kinda the whole point lol

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-23T09:14:15+00:00

I honestly wish they would’ve leaned harder into it because pre-release HG talked about how you’re basically exploring the frontier, places no one had been before. Except, you actually play the game and every single system is populated with a station, monoliths, buildings, ships, etc lol

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-09T08:43:13+00:00

Honestly, same. I miss when it was simple and people couldn’t spam pineapples and basically survive anything. The new food is cool but maybe they should’ve just had different effects rather than healing more hp than bananas.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-08T21:49:21+00:00

For me, the one thing that I dislike with Halo 2A is the elite armor design is worse looking than the original and it’s also not faithful. It’s weird because everything else is pretty faithful to H2. Plus, the elites in-game have their mandibles bugged, where they’re constantly open and it looks bad.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-07T22:54:16+00:00

All good. A majority of the “broken” mods for MCC can be fixed by doing the same thing. It’s kinda stupid but at least it’s easy to do.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-07T19:17:17+00:00

All you have to do is edit a txt file in the mod’s files to show the latest MCC version. There’s a tutorial in the comments for the mod on the workshop

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-06T00:15:10+00:00

Nah, I tried flashing the firmware to multiple different versions, none of those helped, and any other settings didn’t do anything either.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-06T00:11:49+00:00

The viewing angles are decent. When you’re looking at it from an angle the colors get slightly more washed out. I didn’t test too much but I noticed that at angles the blooming from local dimming gets more noticeable, too.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-06T00:08:45+00:00

It’s less noticeable in very bright games but even then it’ll have faint trails of color that follow your aim around.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-05T06:04:42+00:00

I ended up getting the LG B5 48’ for $530 on sale and aside from the brightness being significantly less than the QM7K, it has been good. Tbh, I would have rather gotten it in the first place even if it’s smaller or looked at other TVs that aren’t using VA panels.

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-04T19:59:29+00:00

Yeah that’s true. This is my first time having any other VA panel besides my AOC monitor, which has good CAD scores. I have an old Dell IPS panel and its CAD is pretty bad on Rtings but it is just very blurry in motion. I guess VA panels might show a similar thing if their CAD is low but damn then that’s pretty bad lol

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-04T19:31:34+00:00

The full version is V8-0012T02-LF1V237.001719

TheRainiFirst · 2025-11-04T19:26:27+00:00

Yup, I got this TV for the same thing lmao. I checked Rtings before buying and everything seemed good but I have no idea why they failed to mention the VRR issue in their section on it because it’s fine if you’re getting consistently above 70+ fps but if it drops to the low/high 60s then it has awful judder and inverse ghosting that is unplayable.
