Star Wars Jedi Survivor

KAC

Whatever
Down pumping now. Can't believe there is no talk about this game here. Most anticipated Star Wars title and not a single nerd in sight.
Heard tons of bugs and performance issues on PC. Perfect day 1 release game. I will wait for patches or two before indulging. Apparently game is dope af.
 
Will sub to EA Play Pro again. I may wait for patches too if it's got a lot of issues on PC.
 
Peeps are saying that it is a trainwreck, it wants 18GB of vram at 1440p or something insane like that.

No idea if that is with the day one patch or not though.
 
I got a copy from the AMD Promotion, so I will load it up and see how it runs. It unlocks in 41 minutes.

Edit: So, on a 7800X3D and RTX 4090 at 1440P Epic quality with Ray Tracing I'm getting 80-100 FPS on the first level. However, the game seems to be very CPU limited, since my GPU utilization is only at 80-90%.

I went into the options and toggled ray tracing off and then back on, and after that I was getting 45 FPS, but it was fixed after restarting the game. So it seems like there is some bug when changing settings that can lead to bad performance.

Disabling ray tracing or lowering quality reduced my GPU utilization to 40-50% but didn't increase my frame rates at all, once again suggesting a heavy CPU bottleneck.The game also looked pretty bad without ray tracing.

Considering I have an absolutely top of the line PC and am getting sub 100 FPS, and can't get more FPS by lowering settings, you can argue the game runs pretty poorly.

Other thoughts: The camera seems really sluggish, making it feel like you're getting worse FPS than you are.

The menus are weird in that you can't just click the left or right arrows on the screen to to change a setting, instead the mouse click selects and unselects the item and then you have to change the actual setting using WASD. It's definitely not intuitive for how a PC settings menu usually works.

If you quit during the tutorial fight, then when you reload the game it's bugged and you can't continue.

Wow, this game is a blast. I am running 4K and usually hovering from 45-70 fps. Did maybe 3-4 meditation spots. Cal is such a bad ass. Really enjoying it.
However, performance issues need to be fixed. I am not using FSR2 as it does absolutely nothing. 4K Epic settings and RT on for now. There is very limited RT in the first level btw. I am sure game is going to hitch bad once I hit outside levels but for now it is very playable.
But the bad assery is just amazing!​

Thanks for reminding me, forgot about the promotion. Unfortunately I didn't get a code sent to me, so I phoned the store and they can't re-process the order to generate code for some reason until Monday... :nag:
 

Star Wars Jedi Survivor PC Review: The Worst Triple-A PC Port of 2023... So Far

Meanwhile EA is doing damage control by suggesting that their customers should use the latest drivers and by saying stuff that only a minority is suffering from these issues.
 
Not sure what everyone is going on about. Game is running fine for me. Epic settings and 4K with RT at 90 fps in second planet. Going to start boning it again as I am on last boss fight in Resident Babysitter 4.
 
Read an article pinning it down to being CPU bound. Could be that some people have CPUs that the game doesn't optimize for, and/or aren't as strong as yours. As CPU being a real limitation hasn't really been a thing for years, I could see it.
 
The console version doesn't seem to be that good, it has plenty of frame rate drops too, it does seem to have better frame times though.


The quality mode seems to get REALLY cinematic near large bodies of water though, so maybe that is the true difference maker.

Not sure why the decided to not make ray tracing optional on PS5. It’s a frame rate killer on all platforms.
 
Hows the sereni... hows the visual style in games? Does it feel good with the more clone wars style graphics, or is it weird?
 
Graphics style is amazing. I am loving it ALOT!
Haters gonna hate but I am enjoying the f out of it.
 
Played one hour. Ran pretty bad on low or high settings, but was playable. Coruscant​ looks amazing.

Tried to patch the game, and it got stuck, patching broke it. Had to uninstall and will redownload again. EA App has been okay up until now.
