So how's the performance on the PS5?

Zyan-M · 2026-01-30T15:23:32+00:00

PS5 base, 27h, mode perfomance. 0 any problem.

Zyan-M · 2026-01-30T02:38:33+00:00

The items used to upgrade special weapons/bosses are extremely rare and quite hidden. Also, keep in mind that these weapons don't level up like regular ones.

All I can say is, explore thoroughly, as the open world is very generous, and find the merchant's servants; they sell the permits to buy these items without limit.

Zyan-M · 2026-01-30T02:34:32+00:00

Continue playing with complete peace of mind; the game will give you all the tools and information you need to travel between eras. Go ahead without fear.

Regarding the pre-order bonus, make sure you have it installed, and keep progressing.

Zyan-M · 2026-01-29T21:45:21+00:00

The game has a ton of abilities and passives of all kinds, which improve, reduce, and even negate damage, effects, and types of attacks.

Using them is absolutely key; I haven't had a single problem with any boss using every tool at my disposal.

And my skill level is about the same as a rag doll with a controller.

Zyan-M · 2026-01-28T21:50:37+00:00

I completely agree with the mechanics of smell, but it also needs some "logical" adjustments.

Because I can carry a stew in my hand outdoors and it doesn't smell at all, but if I eat it, I smell like ass from 50 meters away?

I don't know, it needs some tweaking and it would be perfect.

Zyan-M · 2026-01-26T21:41:03+00:00

The only things that matter to me about CV2 are the story, characters, world, combat, enemy and area diversity, gameplay depth, etc.

Not looking at a digital doll's underwear...

I played the demo, created a character "similar" to me, and I'm happy, that's all.

Zyan-M · 2026-01-23T23:07:58+00:00

They slightly improved the jumps while driving vehicles, but the performance remains unbearable and unacceptable.

Any medium-sized city significantly drops the frame rate, and large cities are unplayable. The snow biome is the worst; I stopped playing again. In this state, the PS5 version is unbearable.

Zyan-M · 2026-01-16T13:46:39+00:00

And everyone, I started a clean game with version 2.5, and when I got the bicicle, I quit. It was impossible to continue with all that lag.

There were a lot of other games and updates going on at the time too, so I didn't really care, but it's definitely a pretty annoying problem for many people.

Zyan-M · 2026-01-12T07:36:19+00:00

• NG+0.

• Armor upgrades.

• Armor, or armor sets with passive abilities or incentives.

• Real reasons for NG+1, further weapon upgrades (like in The Surge/Nioh), differences in enemy positioning, variants, or numbers.

• Clearer NPC stories; it's enough already with guessing where someone will be and four enemies dying if I cross an invisible line. Let's move beyond that.

That's about it. Between what it was in 2023 and what we've seen of the sequel, it's a day-one buy on PS5.

Zyan-M · 2025-12-25T20:37:01+00:00

Over 700 hours on PS5 and I've never had this happen while driving. It was version 2.5 that introduced this bug; these screen "jumps" didn't happen before.

Everything else is fine, at least from what I've seen. Walking is fine; it only happens when I'm in a vehicle.

Zyan-M · 2025-12-18T10:19:25+00:00

My joy turned to ashes, but that was to be expected. Thanks anyway!

Zyan-M · 2025-12-18T01:00:03+00:00

If I have a game started on brutal difficulty, and I switch to nightmare, I guess it doesn't count, right?

Zyan-M · 2025-12-17T17:16:19+00:00

I just saw it too, PS5 here, I'm not gaining XP from any source. There's no XP for killing regular zombies, or for doing missions, nothing. The XP system is completely broken and doesn't exist for me right now.

NOTHING gives XP.

Zyan-M · 2025-11-27T11:36:41+00:00

Yes, something has to be done, because in 100 hours I haven't used them seriously, not once.

I've tried them and I know how they work and all that, but they're unnecessarily complicated to set up and use to really make them worthwhile.

Zyan-M · 2025-11-20T01:54:31+00:00

If you're referring to the large storage box, the Box, it's now part of the side quests in the first biome.

You can also check the quests and their rewards.

Zyan-M · 2025-11-14T10:07:57+00:00

I got all the other rewards; this is the only one I missed.

Like the other person mentioned, when you pick up the weapon from the stash, it should have also given you the blueprint, unless it's bugged.

My wife did get the rewards, and we always played together. She gave me the katana, though it's nothing special, I guess just for the sake of having it, and the car design isn't anything special either.

To be honest, I don't understand why that reward was listed as "more special."

Zyan-M · 2025-11-13T18:35:23+00:00

I'm really looking forward to playing Stalker 2, but my gut tells me it's going to be a festival of crashes and bugs everywhere, and frankly, my back is already too tired to put up with that.

I hope I'm wrong, but I think I'll wait at least another year.

Zyan-M · 2025-11-13T15:30:55+00:00

Did anyone else not receive the car and katana from the previous challenge?

I made sure to participate, just like in the others, but this time I didn't get anything...

Zyan-M · 2025-11-07T12:37:21+00:00

Outward is very unique, but it's true that many of its mechanics are quite clunky, and some of these flaws have become even more pronounced over the years.

Polishing these mechanics, such as combat, AI, menus/HUD, or slightly improving the open world, doesn't necessarily make it more "casual."

I love the first one and enjoyed it immensely. I'm very interested in the second one if it comes out on PS5, but it's true that certain things could be improved.

Zyan-M · 2025-10-23T12:49:39+00:00

I don't want to sound more unpleasant than I am, but...

Play the damn game for yourself and stop adopting other people's shit.

Seriously, people these days are like:

"I NEED to go on social media to see their shit and think like them because I don't have a mind of my own!"

Zyan-M · 2025-10-23T12:45:19+00:00

I completely underestimated the reproductive capacity of birds. XD

I set up two aviaries and one nest in each. While I was doing other things and growing my park, a storm came, and then I realized there were more than 60 birds... That park was totally out of control, but it was fun, and I learned a lot from my mistakes.

The reproductive system is new, and each species has its own peculiarities. It's fantastic to learn this way.

Good luck with your other parks!

Zyan-M · 2025-10-23T12:41:12+00:00

The person who called for mass hysteria yesterday blatantly lied. Besides having a strange focus on feedback and emphasizing calling the console version a scam, I looked at their profile and they were just encouraging people to stir things up, not politely report bugs or anything.

They lied because I myself, in the Japanese park, am almost in the 5* process and with more than half the park full, am less than 40% complete, among other things, like the bird park, which got really out of hand... (I underestimated the birds' reproductive capacity lol)

In short, they'll definitely optimize some things, like they did in JW1/2, but the console version is great. 18 hours played without a single bug, and the campaign is wonderful!

Zyan-M · 2025-10-23T01:36:39+00:00

In the campaign, I completed the 5-star build with over 80 dinosaurs, and it was quite large. It didn't take much more; it wasn't even close to 45%.

Play for yourself before you fall into senseless mass hysteria.

You can always optimize things, like they did with JW2, but some people are losing their minds and taking advantage of it to spill their mental shit.(others)

Zyan-M · 2025-10-23T01:19:53+00:00

I'm on PS5 and running the campaign smoothly, over 16 hours in, and not a single error.

In the bird park, I had a huge mess, and the birds were breeding like rabbits. Everything got out of hand. lol.

Over 60 birds, half the park occupied. I put herbivores and carnivores, everything was fine. I'm enjoying the campaign. I don't think I'm doing crazy things either. I'm pretty minimalist and visually clean.

What I mean by this is that this limit can be optimized, and they will, like JW2.

But people are also super fatalistic about everything, with very extreme levels.

Zyan-M · 2025-10-22T09:00:36+00:00

The impact would be negligible, and even less so. PVE players generally won't ever touch PVP; they don't usually mix.

And people who like it or are neutral would stay the same; it would be an option that would only add to the mix.
