That screen shot of all the settings at the end of the video after you have explained the reasons for each setting is a great service item for the viewers. Thanks
I love this channel. I could do this myself but to check it all for myself would take so much longer. I'm amazed how many games I play and look-up, he has already done a benchmark on!@@LzOhaiF
By far the best optimization-channel out there. Not only the actual best optimization but also the explanations, the timestamps throughout the video and the summary at the end. Has been my go-to channel for years. Thank you for your service!
Right? I mean, this is exactly what we all want when we look up these kinds of videos. So many of them are too fancy and detailed with the tech or total trash and just show side by side gameplay with graphs that aren’t useful. This format is absolutely perfect.
You legend, I literally was searching to help my friend and boom you release this. Now to send him this vid and hope he can optimise his settings for a better gameplay experience.
I was literally asking this guy on discord how to best optimise and then he sent me this video and then I watched this video and now i'm playing teh game greatly.
This is the best optimization video i have ever seen for any game in my entire life i don't have a bad PC so i was just looking for settings that i could turn off to just make my computer quieter during gameplay and the comparison at the end is exactly what i needed being able to see almost the same quality while getting way better performance is the definition of optimization, finally someone gets it, thank you
In case you want the PC to become quieter you'll have to limit the frame rate after the optimization. Otherwise it will just churn out more images and the noise will be the same. A better way is undervolting and limiting your GPU and CPU.
Man, I always look for the best way to optimize a game and not lose graphic quality. And a huge majority of channels just tells you what to use and don't really show a reason for it other than the FPS. But you actually show EACH and every setting and even explains what they do and show in game examples. Like holy shit!!! I don't usually subscribe to people who does optimizations but I will make an exception for you because I will 100% check you out in the future for more games I can change. Thanks man
Remember: if you are playing with AA off, turn off in game sharpening (or at least lower it) The sharpening setting exist because TAA is blurry, if you use it with no AA it will be overly sharpened. I noticed this in the video. Side note - theirs a mod on Nexus that adds different anti-aliasing options to the game
@@maldosogamer yeah because the TAA in this game sucks really bad, TAA is not consistent at all because it varies from game to game since it's a *type* of anti-aliasing and not a very specific thing like SMAA is. Also it asks you to disable TAA because its replacing the games anti-aliasing so it needs to use none as a base, two of the included options in the preset are a form of TAA itself. You also are interjecting your opinion onto others quite harshly; anti-aliasing is a very personal preference type thing. The goal of the mod is to strike a balance between clarity and anti-aliasing, so you get a better compromise. If you're happy with the games AA already don't use it, it's for those who aren't.
It's just a ReShade preset, so it's not particularly good AA, the options that work don't use the depth buffer so menus will get AA'd too and it just looks like someone wiped butter over your screen.
I did a lot of self testing but I just realized after watching this video I have no idea what I'm looking for 😂 this is a great favor you did us all my friend, much appreciated and sub earned
FUN FACT! The game Engine was the same they used for Helldivers 1 and is currently a discontinued Old Engine. The fact they were able to pull this level of graphical fidelity as an Indie developer is just OUTSTANDING. Arrowhead Studios with just 100 people showed SONY they don’t need huge budgets to create quality games. I can understand why they laid off so many people across ALL their studios no matter the success of their games. They are simply OVER expending at this point. Arrowhead Studios is definitely a role model for how they should approach game development.
Thank you so much for this amazing guide! The visual comparisons and in-depth explanations give this guide a very high quality which blew me away! Now my potato computer can live to liberate planets another day without sacrificing too much visual quality. ❤🔥❤🔥
Your videos are hands down the most detailed, clear and helpful benchmark videos on the platform. I don’t even bother watching others at this point, thank you!
Running much better just skipping to the end and using settings, Thank you so much for going into detail over everything though! It's awesome when people take the time to go through every option to find out what works best, and I wanted to jump down here to give my appreciation even if I skipped over it! I'll save this video and come back to go through each setting if updates have me running worse ;P Thanks again!
As soon as the game dropped, I immediately bought it and checked out your channel frequently for updates, hoping that you would upload soon. Thank you for making this video and for your patience while waiting for the servers to clear up lol
Thanks for this perfect video ! 2 Things : volumetric fog on HIGH for higher level of the game is very important for see especially places with mushroom clouds, you NEED that vision ! Particle quality on ultra if you can ! This game have a lot of moment with particle because more bomb with fire, bullet, laser.
A very well made video for people looking not just for information on how to get the game to run better, but more details on what each of the graphics settings do. Keep up the good work.
9:41 I'd suggest turning volumetric fog on HIGH, even if you have a Nvidia 1000 series, the fog makes huge differences on visibility. Visibility on LOW is just terrible. Especially places with mushroom clouds, you NEED that vision.
You can actually see that in the wind turbine comparison if you pause it, high and ultra are a much smoother fog allowing mire detail to show through it. Low is more of the classic white blanket fog. Ty for the comment!
Hello, how significative the change would be between low / medium / high ? I tried to land on a random planet and do some screens to compare, but as the weather and daytime change realtime it's hard to have two identicals screens with just the setting moving As high eat up a little amount of FPS, I'd like to be sure it's worth it :)
Just watched 3 videos on this and for me and my setup this was great advice. Love how you walked through each setting with explanations and visuals. Well done sir!
I just spent hours messing with graphics. I finally googled and was brought here. This video has awesome and you’ve helped me spread managed democracy further
RTX 3070 user here. I was playing on Ultra quality upscaling with every graphic setting on high/ultra but the game looked blurry. after watching your video I changed to native and still got the same ~80 fps by optimizing the other settings. I also turned off anti aliasing since I dislike how it looks. I got a lot of value out of your video. highly appreciated. thank you sir!!
@@CubeDaWoopthought I was the only one! My system is considered high end too, way above recommended and I consistently see bad drops like this. It’s the ONLY game I experience this
love the side by side comparisons for every setting and the way you give info straight to the point - i was just hoping if you were making a benchmark video for this game and you did 🤩
Thank you so much for this. The game runs perfectly fine at standard settings on my rig, but a little more consistency was desired and you provided that with clear explanations. You're awesome~
Thank you so much for this advice, it greatly helped with the performance, since HD2 has been pushing my PC to its limits, thank you !! You are maybe the best on YT with content like this. You saved my bacon during Darktide struggles as well !
bro, your videos are unique, i love them, don't stop making them, you are a beast! also, i have a special request, please make a video on Outcast - A new Beginning when it launches, it's pretty close to the launch day, also sons of the forest and palworld, keep up the good work!
My rig runs at 4080 and I've been experiencing low FPS while playing on Helldive difficulty, hovering around 51fps on all ULTRA settings. Your video unquestionably improved the framerate significantly! THANK YOU!
Man I look up pc optimization videos everytime I buy a new game and youtube has never shown me this channel before. Thanks for the great work, liking and subscribing so youtube knows to get their sh't together and start spreading these useful videos so more people.
Super nice going through this and tying the settings to what was happening on screen. They need your script in the setting extra details info that pops up. Way more clear than what they got up there for sure.
This was a very well put together video. I appreciated the explanations and examples of each setting and the summary of the optimized settings at the end. Earned my sub easily with the quality of this video.
The reason why I appreciate your content so much is because you cover every graphics setting extensively which I highly praise. Many other performance youtubers don't bother but you do!
VERY nice video! I'll be keeping an eye on this channel, this was extremely well presented, edited and understandable from a gamer's perspective instead of like every one of us are AV experts!
Great video explaining in depth what each of these settings actually does. Even though I've been gaming for a long time, I sometimes forget which settings will impact performance the most.
This is nice but for the end benchmarks I think you should also include a comparison to low preset to see how many frames would/wouldn't be lost going from low to optimized settings. Those of us watching a video like this are likely playing on the low preset to gain maximum frames, but are looking to find a balance between frames and visuals.
Waoh, this was tremendous help! I wish games did settings like capcom Resident Evil remakes do it (showing visual represenation over each setting), but alas not all of them do it. So big thanks for doing this!
First saw your last of us optimization video, I've been coming back ever since due to the sheer quality of what you produce, especially the timestamps and end table. Keep up the good shit man.
You really are the benchmark king. I feel like the quality of your videos has even improved since I last saw your videos (Last of Us). Thanks for your hard work
Great video, definitely helped me decide to turn down Shadows, Particles, clouds, and Space Quality to gain some frames. I figured out pretty early that Render Quality really needs to be set to Native to make the game look much better.
Ok, so just tried this on a RX 6600 + R5 5500 build, getting around 55-63 FPS average depending on Planet. I was playing on Medium Settings at 53 FPS avg before so this is quite an improvement, looks better too. Uploaded a full gameplay with these settings, THANK YOU!! :)
wonderfully in-depth video! with these settings i'm able to sit comfortably with 70-80 fps with the super sampling mode and around 50-60 fps in ultra super sampling on my RTX 2080 TI!
While I personally don't need the optimization, my coworker is currently playing the game on an FX 8320 + RX 470 combo and I'm just checking to see if there's anything I can do to help him just a little bit more to take any pressure off the CPU if I can... I appreciate your work here. New subscriber earned.
As much as I hate AA, turning it on was the only way to get particle effects to not look pixelated even if I cranked it up to ultra. Thanks for the video, great stuff
Great video! A note on the volumetric fog quality, the setting also controls if local lights are casting light into the fog, especially noticible in bug hives :)
The game is incredibly CPU intensive and guides like these should be taken with a grain of salt. For me, turning off bloom was the most insane performance boost of around +20 fps.

This is the best optimization video i have ever seen for any game in my entire life
i don't have a bad PC so i was just looking for settings that i could turn off to just make my computer quieter during gameplay and the comparison at the end is exactly what i needed
being able to see almost the same quality while getting way better performance is the definition of optimization, finally someone gets it, thank you
In case you want the PC to become quieter you'll have to limit the frame rate after the optimization. Otherwise it will just churn out more images and the noise will be the same.
A better way is undervolting and limiting your GPU and CPU.
Normally I don´t subscribe to benchmark channels but you´re so detailed and straight to the point that I couldn´t resist. Thanks for all your effort.

Remember: if you are playing with AA off, turn off in game sharpening (or at least lower it)
The sharpening setting exist because TAA is blurry, if you use it with no AA it will be overly sharpened. I noticed this in the video.
Side note - theirs a mod on Nexus that adds different anti-aliasing options to the game
The mod asks you to disable TAA, which is a horrible choise for any game released in the last 10 years unless you're replacing it for DLAA or DLSS
@@maldosogamer yeah because the TAA in this game sucks really bad, TAA is not consistent at all because it varies from game to game since it's a *type* of anti-aliasing and not a very specific thing like SMAA is.
Also it asks you to disable TAA because its replacing the games anti-aliasing so it needs to use none as a base, two of the included options in the preset are a form of TAA itself.
You also are interjecting your opinion onto others quite harshly; anti-aliasing is a very personal preference type thing. The goal of the mod is to strike a balance between clarity and anti-aliasing, so you get a better compromise. If you're happy with the games AA already don't use it, it's for those who aren't.
@@maldosogamerTAA is shit, everything is muddy and blurry with this form of anti-aliasing
@@maldosogamerNo AA at all is better than TAA lmao
It's just a ReShade preset, so it's not particularly good AA, the options that work don't use the depth buffer so menus will get AA'd too and it just looks like someone wiped butter over your screen.
I did a lot of self testing but I just realized after watching this video I have no idea what I'm looking for 😂 this is a great favor you did us all my friend, much appreciated and sub earned
FUN FACT!
The game Engine was the same they used for Helldivers 1 and is currently a discontinued Old Engine. The fact they were able to pull this level of graphical fidelity as an Indie developer is just OUTSTANDING.
Arrowhead Studios with just 100 people showed SONY they don’t need huge budgets to create quality games. I can understand why they laid off so many people across ALL their studios no matter the success of their games. They are simply OVER expending at this point. Arrowhead Studios is definitely a role model for how they should approach game development.
maybe with more people they could optimize the game atleast 😂
They should have used a different engine that’s probably why it runs like shit and the developers did a horrible job optimizing
This is the best optimization guide for the game yet. Thanks for your effort!
Thank you so much for this amazing guide! The visual comparisons and in-depth explanations give this guide a very high quality which blew me away! Now my potato computer can live to liberate planets another day without sacrificing too much visual quality. ❤🔥❤🔥

i was looking out for this, thank you king, you're a blessing
You are the best pc settings channel. You get to the point and show results. Thank you man !!!!
