It still uses 9-10GB of VRAM for the game alone on the 4090, so yeah VRAM use is all sorted since the last patches.
The Last of Us Remake | March 28th 2023
- Thread starter mrk
- Start date
It's a nothing burger as far as patches go this one:
- Fixed an issue where loading into the game while shaders are building in the background causes an infinite hang
- Fixed an issue where, following a crash, the crash data may submit incomplete telemetry

Not played it since the first release, now on 1.4.0.1 and it's running great. Glad I waited for some patches.
So it's out of Beta now?
Looking forward to buying it.
In fact I am going to make a thread, as it's been bothering me!
I'm not sure its out of beta. Had to set up a developer account on the LG website, then install the dev tool app on the TV, connect from my pc and sideload moonlight from there.
Its fairly simple to do tbh.

Lol. What a joke. Same lot in here were lapping it up. Who is laughing now
Naaaaaaw, optimizing NEVER fixed the game AGAIN did it?, 'same lot' have gone quiet though.
Maybe they've learnt that release day performance isn't actually a good measure for estimating 'actual' game performance, especially from the first one down to 2fps = the cards fault.
Some people really do struggle with how software and hardware work and which you can change easily. The tangible and intangible elements, are a bit hard to understand for some.
Some love paying MSRP and due to bugs and terrible performance miss out on the immersion a decent game should draw you in with.
Just started playing Dying light 2, half price and excellent performance- I'm sure that one fell over on release. Pixel peeping or DLSS hate.
TLOF is on the to play list in 6 months-1yr. As will be Hogwarts.....
Hogwarts is mostly fixed, as long as you avoid ray tracing which they broke even more with the latest patch which is a shame as it is a game which would look stunning with a proper path tracing implementation. Though they could do a lot more to improve the PC adaption especially controls wise but I don't think that will ever happen.
EDIT: Saying that there would seem to be some considerable optimisation possible under the hood but again I'm not sure that will ever happen - on my systems it is rarely using either CPU or GPU fully a lot of the time.

Late to the thread but glad I caught this. Started playing last night with DLSS on. It's the first time in years I've noticed what appears to be zero AA being applies. Jaggies everywhere! I'll try FSR :]
Soldato
Yes it's bizarre. Never seen it in any other game ever. Luckily FSR 2 seems a good implementation, AA works as it should, and looks really decent. I lower the sharpening down to 10 though as it's a bit overdone, but if honest I'm not sure the sharpeness slider has any impact at all. Wouldn't surprise me with the state of this game.
49GB! Maybe they've finally sussed it lol
I'll tweet them see what stirs 
Ok tried it out and thoughts are promising.
1: Shader compilation is broken down into two stages that run side by side, one for the main game, the other for Left Behind. Left behind runs slower whilst the main game shaders build, then Left Behind runs fast once finished. The main story shaders compiled in 7 mins 59s, it took another 1m 27s for the Left behind shaders to compile. A massive improvement.
2: Save load times remain unchanged, in fact slightly longer, 28 seconds to load any save whereas I clocked 24s in the last patch.
3: The 2 new density settings default to medium, so you will need to change them to ultra.
4: At native rendering (DLSS/FSR off) VRAM use appears dramatically reduced now. At 3440x1440 VRAM use is under 9GB (game only). At a render scale set to 160 which is a res of 5504x2304, VRAM use is 11.3GB for the game only. You can comfortably run the game in on a 12GB card at 4K no worries now. You could get even lower VRAM use by enabling FSR/DLSS. So 4K on a 10GB card? Yeah no VRAm issues...
5: Shader stuttering/performance. Only a quick blast loading some old saves but noticed no issues. At 5504x2304 I can get over 60fps, though this is a 4090 so to be expected. At 3440x1440 the framerate remains similar to before, and the 3080 Ti also got not far off this (85-100 ish?) - The 4090 hovers around the 90-115fps depending on whether outside or inside. Enabling DLSS or FSR makes minimal, if any, difference to framerates.
6: Speaking of DLSS< FSAA is still broken when using DLSS at any quality setting. FSR as a result still looks better than DLSS in this game. Annoying, but an upscaler is not needed in this game really given how well it runs at native, only really for those who want to reduce VRAM usage, or increase sharpness that an upscaler allows. Stick to FSR2 I'd say as it looks better due to having AA, but also artefacts around water may be more obvious using FSR vs DLSS - Swings and roundabouts... Native is my mode of choice.
7: All physical CPU cores were hovering above 50% utilisation in the time I was mooching about.
Overall a welcome patch, but annoying that DLSS still has broken AA.

I had no issues at 4k on a 3080 with the previous patch, at least not with vram, grunt on the other hand..... But enabling dlss fixed that.
Will try out the patch later this week and maybe get a video up to but warning it may rustle some jimmies

Tried 1.0.5, 3080 1440p , vram is below 10gb on ultra but the 3080 doesn't seem to have the grunt get dips below 60fps
Ultra + Dlss quality its smooth but ( supposably DLSS is broken in this game) prefer using high preset + native to me the quality looks better and still smooth

Actually I want to check I am updated properly, how the hell do you check game version in game lol, it does not show you like other games do!
Anyone check their .exe version? Mine says
My EA App said there was an update, so I assumed that was the new update but it downloaded way too fast to be over 1GB so wondering if it was just something else.
