With the launch of version 1.0, PUBG’s performances have had a negative spike on Xbox One X, and Bluehole and PUBG Corp. have finally reached the conclusion to have a little temporary downgrade while working on a definitive solution for the frame rate issues.
The downgrade is involving basically everything outside of the resolution and textures’ quality and will be temporary. You can see the full list of changes below, which are going to be available from September 18.
- Shadow Quality (Both Dynamic/Static) lowered
- Post Processing
- Turn off Motion Blur
- Decrease quality of Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO)
- Turn off Depth of Field
- Turn off Lens Flare
- Decrease Eyes Adaption Quality
- This is the time it takes for your eyes to adapt to the dark when you go from a bright to the dark place.
- Effects
- Turn off Screen Space Reflection (SSR)
- This is the reflection from windows and such.
- Turn off Refraction
- This is refracted light.
- Turn off Subsurface Scattering (SSS)
- This is when there is light inside an object to make it look more real.
- Turn off Particle Light
- This is dynamic light from different effects such as explosions.
- Lower the number of particles created
“We wanted to let our players know that we are aware of framerate issues on the Xbox One X, and that this is a top priority for us. We understand the frustration that this is causing and we will be deploying a hotfix on September 18 to implement some changes that will help with this issue,” said the developer in a note.
Interestingly, the studio is also working on the chance for players to switch between two graphics modes on Xbox One X: 1080p with 60 frames per second and 4K with 30fps.
“We are also working on a long-term solution for Xbox One X that we intend on implementing in the future that will cater to two different audiences: those who prefer better graphics and those who prefer better performance and don’t mind sacrificing some graphical quality,” said the team.
“We currently do not have many details to share, but will provide updates on this as soon as we’re able to.” So we don’t have a release date for this feature at the moment, but it doesn’t look like it’ll take ages.
