Just wondering if we can get a consensus about this.

Not super great but not bad either, i can deal with the fps it's the draw distance and lack of NPC's i can't take..

Had no performance problems other than a few graphical glitches like floating bodies or arrows in mid air and the loading crash issue but that is fixed, so no performance issues

Some minor FPS drops in the environments others have noted for such, but it doesn't detract from my enjoyment of the game. I have a disc copy, not sure if that has any relevance.

The primary issue I have at the moment is the paucity of NPCs since the 1.03 patch, that is really killing my immersion. Hopefully it's a bug that will be fixed, but so far I've not seen a developer acknowledge it and so have no idea when it'll be rectified.

Same here as Fortengard, i hope they resolve issues with NPCs spawning, LOD of textures and stuttering with the next (and wish last) patch, no immersion-breaking frame drops for me.

Some minors FPS drops too, in the swamp killing boiras or things like that, sometimes a few freezes but just miliseconds.... and glitchs like prisioners outside their cage, two mistranslations the subs appears in symbols.

Anyway I can still playing, what scares me are those critical bugs that people are talking about. You can deal with some fps down...

Really? Have a look at the number of topics opened reporting bugs and then do the same for framerate issues topics...

The point of these threads is for players to report their problems with the game. Not to pit certain problems against others or to debunk certain complaints. The developers are more than capable of determining what to prioritse and what's feasible.

Created a profile to vote for this. I have a framerate problem too and sometime it stutter when i panning my camera around. I hoped it can be better after this patch(1.03) but it don't. Look the PC gamer and some time fell happy for them. :(

framerate afterer white orchard is almost ALWAYS sub 30. Drops to 25 in many combat scenarios, and is even worse in the bog, or with thunderstorms. Or in novigrad at night

if i had to sum it up in one word it would be: poor

playable, but far from smooth

Same here, frame drops are always around the corner... the game is not smooth at all.
What i don't understand it's the difference in framerate between ps4/xbox one, i've seen some video of the same missions i played on ps4 to compare them and on the microsoft console is on another planet, really, the experience is way better and smooth just what i expected from the ps4 version.
I really appreciate that someone from cd project tell us that they're aware of this problems and that they're already working on it to make the ps4 version enjoyable as much as the xbox one version at least.
This silence is worrying me and i don't think i'm the only one, so please tell us something.

I created this account to just post my displeasure with how this game performs on PS4 and I would have to say it is poor. Now since patch 1.03 the performance has gotten slightly better but still not optimal for smooth game play. The first thing that ABSOLUTELY needs to be fixed is the camera stuttering. It is killing my experience. It baffles me how a game can run so poor and be praised to high heaven when it can barely run. I will gladly take a resolution downgrade to keep the game at a stable frame rate. This game is amazing and I love it, but it runs like crap. Please CD PR fix the performance.

I do see framerate drops during moments that involve heavy particle effects. I don't know if people have the same experience as me when they updated to 1.03 but i DO see a SLIGHT improvement in frames for certain areas especially Novigrad, just not all of them. Most noticeable for me was the storm weather condition which still causes frame rate drops, and it gets worst if i'm at a swamp.

FPS is terrible but my Geralt build is Signs focus so FPS terrible or not, its not affected my gameplay much because all I do is casting Axii and Igni steamrolling everything in the game on Death March difficulty. Even Boss got stunned by Axii spam.

Personally I am absolutely loving this game. I've been gaming since space invaders and VIC20s. I've long known that graphics are not everything in a game. I adore open world games and just being able to explore. Currently, I am level 20. I have found 3 real bugs. Had a few minor quirks. One crash. This game is a beautiful masterpiece and I congratulate the CDPR team on their hard work. I can live with late popping NPCs and some (for me) minor frame rate drops on my PS4. I had the choice to play on PC or PS4 and I chose PS4. Why? Because I am fedup playing games on my PC and spending all my time asking "can this game look better?" or "can I get better FPS out of this?". On my PS4 I get a great standard that I accept. I can spend my time enjoying my games and relaxing rather than worrying about how the game is running.
