• Shader pre-compilation takes 6 minutes on a 9800X3D and more than 13 minutes on a Ryzen 3600
• Awful textures even on High textures
• Major frame time spikes when turning the camera on a 4060-powered PC at High settings and 1440p DLSS Balanced
• The same awful textures are present using a 12GB RTX 4070 GPU
• Have to lower texture quality to Medium on 8GB GPUs to avoid stutters and frame time spikes, but they look even worse. Quickly panning the camera still causes frame time spikes, however
• When moving the camera slowly, those frame time spikes don't happen
• The frame time issue remains even with low textures
• This problem is mitigated on an RTX 4070. Alex suspects it's a streaming issue where the GPU decompression load is too much for lower-end GPU and causes massive frame time spikes
• Does not recommend the game for 8GB GPU owners and avoids caution even for upper mid-range GPUs like the 4070
• The game seems broken on Intel GPUs. Arc 770 is in the 15-20fps range with missing textures and other visual bugs
• You can brute-force those issues to a degree on a high-end system
• Right now, he cannot do optimized settings because it results in the game looking visually unacceptable
• Another L for PCs

 

[Schmendrick]

Surprise surprise, the beta issues weren't just because "old build"...
It was WYSIWYG from the start

 

[squidilix]

Funny, each time you running a game more demanding than a PS4 Port, everyone crying...

 

[Hyet]

What a fucking disaster. Not touching this until it's patched to hell and back. Whats the point of releasing a benchmark for this? Se how bad Capcom did with this before you buy it?

[owandeseis]

lmao at these textures holy christ.

But it's DF's fault for trying to run it at 1440P on just a 4070, these resolutions should be reserved for a 5080+

1440p DLSS Balanced...that's an internal res of like 800p.

One thing though, those who were mocking the Pro for running it at 1080p base resolution aren't looking particularly good right now.

clearly 5090 territory in Capcom`s mind.

 

[LordOcidax]

The turn on frame gen message is worrisome, looks like the devs are starting to relay on that tech for “performance”…

 

[winjer]

Strange. The benchmark ran perfectly smooth on my PC.
No one stutter.

You have an RTX 3080, right?

 

[Skifi28]

I was struggling for a while to decide whether to get this on a 4070 PC or Pro, but after running the benchmark and seeing the wild (no pun intended) framerates all over the place and stuttering I went with the console version and it seems it was the right choice. Not that the pro version is anything to write home about mind you, especially the image quality which is just ok, but at least performance in the 60fps mode has been very consistent in the few hours I've played so far. The beta on console was awful in terms of performance and it seems they took the time to actually fix it, but perhaps that left them less time to do anything about the PC version. Very unfortunate as the friends I'll be playing with are on PC and I can already imagine them complaining or even dropping the game.

That's the most important thing. I can accept poor visuals if the performance is consistent. This has both poor visuals and inconsistent performance even on mid-tier PCs it seems. Maybe monster rigs with 5080s, 4090s, and 5090s can get consistent performance.

6800XT + 5800X3D + 32GB

Same tier. Don't suppose you've bought the full game?

 

[Schmendrick]

9800 x3d + OCed 5080. 5k ultra DLSS4 TNN k Preset.
Fluctuates between 50 and 90 with visuals that should run at 240.....

 

[winjer]

No. I have never played any Monster World game.
I only ran the benchmark a few weeks ago, out of curiosity.

Bullshit, i play 99% games at 4k60+++ that look 2 gens better than wilds on a 4080.

The game should run at 4k60 on a 4070 without a single sweat.

This is the perfect example of why consoles aren't going anywhere for the foreseeable future.

 

[LordOcidax]

Pro masterrace?

Even on pro the game runs at 1080p… the game is a technical mess.

 

[Gaiff]

Even on pro the game runs at 1080p… the game is a technical mess.

At least the performance is consistent. Yeah, the game looks like shit, but even on a maxed-out PC it’s still ugly. I’d rather play a game that looks like crap but runs consistently than the same game that looks less crappy (but still crappy) and runs poorly.

 

[Killjoy-NL]

Even on pro the game runs at 1080p… the game is a technical mess.

Haven't played the game yet, still at work, but do consoles have these same issues?

 

[Gaiff]

Haven't played the game yet, still at work, but do consoles have these same issues?

No, the performance is quite consistent. Not perfect, especially in later areas, but they do a good enough job maintaining 60fps.

 

[clarky]

Yeah fuck this. After DD2 Capcom need to get their shit together if they want a sale out of me. This looks awful.

 

[Schmendrick]

No, the performance is quite consistent. Not perfect, especially in later areas, but they do a good enough job maintaining 60fps.

you forgot the part where the base consoles drop into resolutions resembling pixel art to maintain that.....and even on the pro it looks like you forgot to put on your glasses.
This game is just garbage on all systems and even bruteforcing it on high end PCs has quite narrow limits.
It`s almost impressive just how bad the tech is.

 

[LordOcidax]

Agree with more consistent framerate, disagree with the good job part… The game doesn’t even look that great for the performance we are getting.

 

[Hyet]

The turn on frame gen message is worrisome, looks like the devs are starting to relay on that tech for performance…

Except it doesn't boost performance... it only masks visual aspects of it without any of the experiencial benefits of actual good performance.

 

[GymWolf]

Framegen is also broken in this game so it's better to keep it off.

 

[Physiognomonics]

The main problem is this game are not the low resolution textures, it's the artstyle. That game looks awful on any hardware.

Always thought the locations in world absolutely massacre what i saw of wilds.

Coral highland alone is more majestic than anything i saw in mhw.

Nah, I said it looks like shit one post above.

 

[Hyet]

Always thought the locations in world absolutely massacre what i saw of wilds.

Whenever I saw Wilds I thought "I don't mind sacrificing some visual flair if we get a huge open world with good perfomance".
I never thought we would end up with a game that looks worse, runs worse and isn't really open world as far as I know.

 

[LordOcidax]

The main problem is this game are not the low resolution textures, it's the artstyle. That game looks awful on any hardware.

Also… With those graphics the game should run at 40k native a 60 frames locked on a 4070… This is a shitshow.

 

[rodrigolfp]

Pro masterrace?

Maybe if you have low-end PC...

 

[GHG]

Pretty much in line with the Steam reviews then.

Considering my gripes with the beta and the fact that they haven't been addressed, I'm nowhere near desperate enough to play this to get the PS5 pro version.

Wait for 50% off or more it is then.

 

[Gonzito]

Man...I bought a key of the game maybe I should've wait ugh

 

[Luipadre]

I noticed the fucking awful shader compilation time with the benchmark. I was like wtf is this shit man

 

[Mr Moose]

Going to wait for a big discount and for it to be fixed. It's £46 now but for this? Nah. Fuck off, Capcom.

 

[GymWolf]

Every time i hear people having super long shader compile time i always think they exagerate since it has never been longer than 5 min for me, usually even shorter.

Is wilds gonna be the first one that finally prove me wrong?

 

[yogaflame]

Is it just me, but the way he sounds I felt Alex is really angry? Yes he is pc warrior but I dont blame him since to be honest, there really is some technical issues which im sure are fixable on both console and pc. But still the game is very good and excellent design and presentations and hunting is fun. Im sure technical fixee and updates for PC and console come early. Looks like the console version are much more stable. For me, I will enjoy the game on my base ps5. Just enjoy the game for now fellow hunters.

 

[mansoor1980]

so where the hell is your CAPGOD now?

 

[TrebleShot]

Anyone got the ultrawide fix? fucking letterboxes on the side of the screen the cunts.

Games should be launching with KCD 2 like performance, not this shit.

"Just put up with it until its fixed" isn't good enough for me im afraid.

 

[owandeseis]

One thing though, those who were mocking the Pro for running it at 1080p base resolution aren't looking particularly good right now.

Both are laughable, i said a few days ago, maxed on a 5090 it looked good... at times, but everywhere else it was really bad

That's the most important thing. I can accept poor visuals if the performance is consistent. This has both poor visuals and inconsistent performance even on mid-tier PCs it seems. Maybe monster rigs with 5080s, 4090s, and 5090s can get consistent performance.

tbh what they showed from the 4070 was running from 70 to 90 FPS, lowering resolution to 1080 and settings to medium should give 100+ FPS, it'll look terrible but at least it'll be quite smooth

Bullshit, i play 99% games at 4k60+++ that look 2 gens better than wilds on a 4080.

Was sarcasm my man

 

[Buggy Loop]

What happened to CaPCom ? Figure that shit out. I ain’t doing Dragon dogma 2 redux.

 

[rodrigolfp]

Looks like the console version are much more stable.

Vs low-end PCs and at 800p. Alex is with reason angry because the game runs like shit. Considering DD2 is still running bad to this day there is little hope for this game too.

 

[Gaiff]

Broke 1M concurrent users. Now PC gamers let Capcom know they can release a shoddy product and they’ll buy anyway.

 

[Darkkahn]

Another W for PCs

 

[Hyet]

so where the hell is your CAPGOD now?

I asked them but the texture with the answer hasn't loaded yet
