Support NeoGAF

I have made this video a while ago to show exactly how bug is making a mess of the game. I have been playing on my ps5 and my friend turn on his stream on his ps5, it is on the left upper corner where I put the camera few times, we are on the same road, I stand almost in the middle of the road, he stands a little bit right to the road, but it is the same area exactly, my grass bugged out all over the road, while in his game it is absolutely absent on the road, and it never appears, it never bugs out, it does not shift and change, but in my game, it not only appear on the road, it appears, disappears, changes lod tecture to completely different. And no there is no fixing to it, it can be only fixed for few seconds if you restart the game, but it is not a solution of course. As the publisher of the topic in the forus SkyHighTrees said, there is is like 70% of all consoles it happens on, and 30% are lucky. I myself can attest to that, because more than half people have it on their PS5. The only solution of this problem is bombard CDPR support, but people do not care to do it, the game is pretty old despite its next gen patch. If there was simular issue lets say in Call of Dudy, it would be fixed super fast, cuz ton of people play that...

Probably because it was only played by professional reviewers.

Well the Pro still has issues. In Toussaint (and only here) the clouds have flickering issues. That’s about it for issues I’ve picked up on the Pro.

It sold 50 million copies. I’ve played through it 3 times.

only flickering on ps5 pro? with flickering skies I could live, but not with grass pop in.

They sold 50 millions copies on PS5 ? That port was definitely worth it.

No, but as PlayStation is usually number 1 or 2 in terms of multi platform releases it almost certainly sold millions on it. It sold 20 million between 2020 and 2023 alone.

It’s strange that the ps5 pro fixes the grass LOD issue

It's clearly a bug that needs patching.

even such big reviewing youtube channels as IGN had a bugged game on PS5, but were dumb enough not to notice it, cause they said nothing about it
Time check 1 minute 54th second, grass popped in right on the left of the Geralt that was running. 3.19th grass partially disappeared behind the growner on the other side of the river. And that is just White Orchard where it is indeed not really noticeable, but Toussaint, it is madly bad there, as well as pretty bad in Skellige.

Very cool comparison you made last post.

Yeah, most people are blind imo, because this glitch is so bad and ugly looking, yet people didnt see It.

Skellige and Toussaint are unplayable. Sad to see that the flickering skies in Toussaint are not fixed entirely but at least grass is good now.

The best way to play it on console os disc PS5 unpatched on PS5 Pro. If you are lucky like your friend you can play it on the regular one.

This bug makes me think about the untold differences between the ps5 consoles. Why would one glitch out and the other one work correctly?
