PS5 PRO 20 fps Endgame map

GGG don't care about PS5 players, sadly. I'm on a Pro as well, same trouble as you (and many others!)

Hello;

I play the character Hunters.

Especially in endgame maps

the more explosions, mob excess, projectile, the more fps goes down.

high level maps are not returned. mobs attack, fps drops, the game lags.

dozens of my maps became trash like this.

in addition, skills like lightning spear that are too projectile make the game unplayable.

I looked at it when I was buying.
supposedly it says enhanced for ps5 pro but the game is in a terrible state, your mind is only on the pc side, you don't care about consoles at all

It's very hard to optimize a game for a platform where the hardware is the same. It's easier to optimize for PC where there is 2 trillion different combinations :)

That might be the explanation... But that said, I play on a normal PS5 and while there is some screen tearing and some FPS drops I doubt it ever reached to a point as you describe, never it was unplayable for me.. I do also play with a friend on a Pro and he never complained about severe FPS drops...

Might be a problem with the builds, but it ought not be a problem.
Im playing on Pro and there have been times - even with a fresh character - where frame drops were strong enough to make me question the reasoning behind a console release (or attempt of).
Fighting the chapter 1 mushroom boss at the same time as a hunt-spirit enhanced rare mob that summoned the pink trail of beasts almost felt like looking at a still.

Frequently, playing a frostwall build (no matter the success), this almost always causes severe framedrops with all the shattering stuff flying around.

In the current state, the game shouldnt be allowed to be marketed imho.
