If you're playing The Last of Us Remastered you possibly noticed that the game suffers from pop-in issues in certain areas. Basically when you walk close to some elements of the environment they just "pop" into view. Other items "fade" into view and more flicker between being visible and invisible. All those glitches, while minor, can be a little disturbing. Naughty Dog programmer Corrinne Yu, which is well known for being an industry-wide expert in graphics engineering, gave an in-depth explanation also explaining how she learned more about the PS4 GPU and promising to do better, also inspired by all the pictures sent by fans.
The only one I noticed during my play through was the palette appearing / disappearing in the water. It's such a shame because this sort of thing is literally the only thing about the ps4 remaster that doesn't stack up to the ps3 version - while everything else is better.
Good old "next gen" gaming, outdated out of the box.
At least it's getting acknowledged. There's a lot of issues with the remastered version.
There's this pop-up issue, the occasional completely missing texture that just shimmers white. The lighting which occasionally decides it's going to change randomly (effect filter pop-in).
Then there's all the issues in multiplayer regarding stats, mic not working, the wrong team winning when the round ends & it clears all your kills(really annoying when your doing survivor missions & you've achieved your checklist).
Luckily the multiplayer issues at least on the server side are getting fixed quickly. I'll be happier when the mic issue is completely sorted though!
None of these issues were in the PS3 version which is another reason I have a gripe with the remaster pricing.
I noticed this too, absolute disgrace to be honest. I understand its still and excellent game and I pre-ordered it of PSN here in UK (1am unlock come on!) but I was disappointed by a few things in the game, I understand things like this happen but they already had this game made before this. I guess I'm just bitter because I've paid for it twice and expected no problems, I hope these get patched ASAP.
I expect disagrees for no reason, maybe some accusations that I haven't played it (check my psn profile). I'm just saying my opinion, I loved TLoU, still do, I just wish the remaster was more polished, the motion blur, frame drops and pop-ins are really distracting in single player.
The only bugs I've noticed in my playthrough have been while grabbing enemies few times, while trying to strangle they teleport like 5 meters away from me which was a bit confusing ;).
Don't remember if it happened to me before on PS3 though. But only happened two times with Remastered so far, so no big deal. Other than that been a perfect adventure once again :D . I don't let minor things to stop me from enjoying this game.
