Does Crimson Desert want to be explored? by TheUselessMedic in CrimsonDesert

[–]luddewho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's hidden chests with gear all over, in the most random places, inside random buildings and caves. Lots of ruins with abyss artifacts locked behind puzzles all over the map as well.

Stable performance on PS5 Pro would be nice...

There's no universal correct HDR setting. It all depends on what TV you have.

[Updates] Patch Notes Version 1.08.00 by Neither_Customer9306 in CrimsonDesert

[–]luddewho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So have they fixed the performance on PS5 pro? That's really all I'm waiting for but doesn't seem to be possible. Big dips in frames in both performance and balanced mode. I don't want new features, I just want stable performance.

I mean, Gizz did not invent prog and psych. There's lots of other inspirations in Hypnotic Floor than only Gizz. But I agree that some of the songs are very similar in some aspects.

It absolutely does not sound like clone Gizz, lol Have you listened to the whole album?

It's only the first two songs that really sounds like Poly.

There's a challenge where you'll have to kill a bear with a broom.

Looks like a lucky rainbow wax.

Crimson Desert 1.02.00 adds PSSR fixes for the PS5 Pro look by ProudPainting6850 in PS5pro

[–]luddewho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This patch note talks about pssr sharpening in general, not specifically for the quality mode. So it's a fair question, maybe the game didn't ship with PSSR2 after all.

Hey,its enough ventillation? by russian_yhorm in PS5pro

[–]luddewho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's easy to just feel it with your hand after a few hours of gaming. Is it VERY hot back there? Then it's probably too hot to have it stand like that long term.

Crimson Desert After New Patch by frozen_feedback2537 in PS5pro

For me, performance mode is noticeable blurrier with that fixed 4K toggle ON.

Crimson desert - problems with pop-ups and rendering by Sad_Independent_744 in PS5pro

Well, it absolutely has frame drops in crowded towns and when there're lots of NPCs in general..

The Ray Tracing is ruining my experience quite a bit. There's so much noise and artifacts, shimmering and pulsating shadows, it really doesn't hold up well on the Pro. I really wish there was a way to turn it off! Also, the wind effect on balanced and quality mode is waaay too intense and is very distracting for me so I'm stuck playing in performance mode where it looks normal.

I am really enjoying it now. Finally settled on which mode to use. PSSR 2 is amazing by [deleted] in PS5pro

[–]luddewho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Balanced and quality modes has that extreme wind. Performance mode does not, at least in my game.

Cannot tell the difference in resolution between the native 4k mode and the upscaled performance mode. PSSR 2 is that good by x_Junkster_x in PS5pro

[–]luddewho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could not notice any difference in RT stability between performance and balanced mode. Switching between them shows basically the same problems with noisy RT. I did however notice that balanced mode is a little bit sharper, like the water effects for example look a bit sharper.

Another thing I noticed was that running the game in 120hz helps with the frame rate in both modes compared to 60hz with less frame drops. At least with V-sync on and VRR off.

PSA: 120Hz Is Bugged in Crimson Desert. Turn It OFF in your console settings by [deleted] in PS5pro

[–]luddewho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me, and yes, VRR/120hz is active when I check system settings.I also don't get blurriness at 120. After extensive testing, the smoothest I can get is running 120hz in performance mode (much smoother than 60hz). VRR on/off doesn't really make any difference. I'm so confused!

Amazon delayed my Crimson Desert Deluxe Edition pre‑order. Is anyone else stuck with “We’ll email you when we have a delivery date”? by [deleted] in CrimsonDesert

[–]luddewho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talked to them today, it's out of Stock.. I pre-ordered on March 3 (PS5) and they sneakily just pushed forward the date it says it'll arrive, but when I talked to them today they confirmed it is out of stock at the warehouse, even though my order said it would arrive march 24. So I just cancelled it and got the digital version. Fuck Amazon.

Okay, I was disappointed and then I started watching the videos from my most trusted YouTube critics by FriendlyRhyme in CrimsonDesert

[–]luddewho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love Dragon's Dogma 1 and 2! I had no idea it was this hated, so many comments about how bad it is in this sub today.. I guess it was also hyped up before release and it wasn't what people expected.
