Video Modes: I am having some frustration

After playing 10 days on PC with my 12 year old gaming rig, that has 16GB DDR3 and 4GB VRAM Gforce 970GTX, I am very frustrated.

 

I see that the developers ported all the convenience UI's from console over to PC complete with controller functionality for playstation controllers using DS4Windows, and Steam controller drivers.

 

That being said, until some serious changes are made I am unwilling to invest anymore in my character (I am 650 gear score).

 

The PC video modes are much better allowing user presets for textures, AMD texture filtering and remastered mode. 

 

My game is more stable on the 12 year old PC runs the game anywhere from 28-45 FPS with spikes up to 62 FPS, I am not worried about 120 FPS.  Whoever came on the forums begging for 120FPS is a moron.  I care about crashing,

 

When I go to Node Wars these new node wars with heavy alliance fights (3 40 man vs 1 40 man at a time), it is heavy warfare and the PS5 can't handle it until we get more video modes similar to PC.

 

We need video presets, and more performance options like PC's optimization routines.  The console developers puts a bandaid over the problem when my 12 year old PC can run world boss garmoth and I understand PS4 having 4.5GB of ram cannot run WB garmoth.  It's okay to have solo garmoth. 

 

We also need Vell Boxes, since Vell is not in the game.  There is so many QoL features that PC has that we do not have I am going to put the game down for a bit and start playing PC BDO in console mode until these issues are fixed (And do my 1 node war a week on console).

 

a PS5 version of the game will work just find in theory, PS5 can run BDO remastered with some (frame skipping), but that's okay.

 

I constantly crash in velia and in heidel in 4k mode also.  4k mode is considered broken at the moment (UHD)

 

There is definitely some engineering problems with console, also update the world bosses so that we get rewards from World bosses and guild bosses similar to PC, I got 63 caphras from Garmoth the WB on season server.  Let Garmoth world boss drop caphras also.

 

Please take console seriously there is a lot of people who don't own PC's who would like to play BDO, and PS5 and PS4 with a USB 3.1(Gen 1) external SSD should be able to run the game.

 

That being said we need PC GPU settings on the console to alleviate crashes and more stability from USER optimization.
