Ps5 performance issues

Is anyone else having issues lately on ps5? I’m having enemies pop up in front of me, whole hurds of enemies just popping up in front of me lately…In dungeons, open world, everywhere.
all enemies types, just not 1.
And also feels like since the recent update, this game is COOKING my ps5 10 minutes into playing…Its not shutting down or anything, but I have definitely noticed a difference in performance.
My ps5 is perfectly clean, I also play in a nice chilled room A/C , and its not enclosed at all. It seems like the weird rendering , rubberbanding, lag spikes are making the console work very very hard lately…
Im 200 hours in the game just about, I love it…But there is some performance stuff going on…
Also, PLEASE BUFF FIRE SORC!! :frowning:

YES! This is happening to me since yesterday. I’m in a dungeon or fighting in helltide, and everything except me stops moving. Then when it catches up, I am surrounded by the enemies I was fighting and either almost dead or dead. If I run away while I’m able to move and everyone else is frozen, it drops me back to where I was fighting, so it’s like I am also frozen even though I was moving. I haven’t been able to play properly since yesterday!

I’m having similar issues. I get a lot of rubber-banding too (when you run and then everything freezes and when it catches up your character warps back to where you were before the lag spike started).

I totally understand that servers can have issues, but that’s the sort of thing that should be a HUGE priority in a game that is forced to be online-only.

Exactly same issue in dungeons, open world exploration, world bosses. It’s only recently started in like the last few days and it’s killing the will to play.

I dont know if it’s relevant but we only went up to WT3 in the last week on the PS5 playthrough (couch coop with the other half). But I dont remember it being an issue in WT2.

Also I’m playing solo on PC in the same room and I’m seeing no rubber banding on the PC at the moment but only in WT2 there.

It is more like laggy rather than bug.

It is either the server cannot handle the traffic, or your internet sucks.
