Assassin's Creed Odyssey

I still have those jagged edges on buildings and landscapes, no matter what I change :(

Might re-install overnight ! it's showing version 1.0.2 which is the update number the consoles have so must be up to date.

Ah, thats one thing I'm not really seeing, not really noticing anything particularly jaggedy
 
Game runs smooth, better than Origins for me, but not by much ("4K" 80% w/ RX 480, capped at 30fps; settings wise I only turn down clouds, shadows, AA to med, etc max all the LOD & environment detail stuff), and looks better too I might add. Some of the higher end options are definitely more taxing though (e.g. clouds).

As for the gameplay itself, it's fine, they're trying to be fancier than Origins and imo it's kinda annoying. At least with that one you knew the combat & such were mediocre but they didn't get in the way of the game's strengths: its world. The A.I. is acting strange in this game, and some other gameplay decisions they made miff me (e.g. bounty hunters - utterly garbage idea and implementation; changes to bow & arrows make it mostly useless unless you overlevel, changes to weapon type behaviours & progression etc.). I am playing on nightmare though, so that's colouring my impression a bit (deaths galore!). Definitely need level parity when fighting for the most part else it's just gonna take 10x longer, but since it also affects ass. dmg, it's still needed (can't 1 hit kill = way more planning needed). It's definitely not a straight copy of Origins gamplay, and that's for the worst for me, but it's doing enough well to compensate so it's a wash.

All in all, very much enjoying the game despite the niggles and look forward for the >100hrs I reckon it will take to finish, so far I finished Kephallonia and it took about 5.
 
Cant seem to get twitch prime to login though to get the free Odyssey goodies (pirate pack etc), maybe they dont become available until the standard release on the 5th
 
This stupid unlock system is really annoying. People are already putting up a zillion spoiler videos on YT as a result and most of the standard folks won't be able to play it for days yet. I had to close down YT last night because of spoiler loaded thumbnails on videos alone.
 
Could anyone with a 1070ti or better run 4K 200% resolution scale please? Curious to see. Looks so damn good even on lower settings, but barely manages 10 fps with an RX 480 : ))
 
To be fair, I am biased, I suspected I would love this game as I loved AC Origins (my joint game of the year for last year) and fully expected this to be a contender for my game of the year this year, but I am indeed loving it. Its got AC-like bits, its got Witcher-like bits, its got Shadow of War like bits, its even got some MMO-like bits. (Specifically thinking ESO). So far, so very good.
 
Well i've re-installed, still have poor fps and jaggies.

Next step, re-install drivers and cross fingers!



****FIXED****

Had to restore nVidia control panel settings.... apparently it doesn't like DSR settings...

Better fps and no jaggies :)
