"Performance in Unreal Engine is death by a thousand cuts" WARDOGS devs joke everything in the game has been rebuilt three times as they aim for best performance possible

tbh, it does perform very well compared to other games coming out now

Its facts, a lot of UE5 games run like shit because they don't do the granular work required to streamline performance and avoiding use of features that are just okay for games but best for VFX/CGI projects.

They couldve used ue4 and gotten 3x more perf average?

The game is so optimized I didn't realize it was running on UE5 at first, tho my biggest problem has been the performance dipping to single digits when using PiP scopes. It goes from 60-70 FPS to 20-10 FPS using scopes and aiming at certain areas for absolutely no reason.

unreal engine should come in a better state by default. every game is different but many of them suffer from the same issues because its an engine problem and not a developer problem. epic should be spending time working on that over making a "metaverse" or whatever

The fact that the devs are undergoing the sisyphean task of optimising in UE5 should be commended.

> Performance in Unreal Engine is death by a thousand cuts aint that the truth

I had no idea this game was unreal engine 5. Im shocked that the graphics are actually readable and not filled with film grain and smearing, also allowing us to turn AA off? Insane. I get about 100ish fps on max settings no shadows on 7800x3d and 5080, at 3400x1440. 240 with FG3

I believe them. Optimizing for Unreal is real tough, and implies lots of time.

Has a 5090 and plays on potato mode You’re the problem here mate. Also, you still fucking suck.

Our full interview:

To be fair the game looks like an arma mod from 2003. Gameplay loop is good and unique but my goodness the graphics look rough

Wish I could say the same as others but 30-40fps on potato preset with dlss performance seems to be all I can get out of the game on i7 11th gen, 32gb ram, and RTX 2060 …

I am on a 3060ti with low-medium settings, quality dlss and the game runs and looks pretty good.

just played it for the first time and it runs like fucking butter for me

Game actually runs really well while streaming on a laptop too lol

Two cherry picked bugs, really.

Constant microstutters in every UE5 game in 2k they refuse to agree with AMD I may have to reinstall Windows at this point, even arc raiders is having this problem where you have to run in windowed mode

And its still not good enough its just ok right now

Reminds me of how arc radars is using the custom Nvidia fork of unreal and that's why it runs better than normal ue

Game runs amazing on my rtx 5070, core i7 20 core CPU cold water cooled and 32gb ram

I have a regular 4070 and on medium to high settings, I’m at 100-120 fps, game runs really smoothly

Yep the graphics are terrible that I can tell they reboot it for many times

I want this game! It looks so good

It can perform better, I hope they optimize it more.
