if it might seem to you mate that im inadequately overreacting, here is a video that displays what i have to deal with to earn beta reward, after buying game for ful AAA+ price, I think not many people would react as calm as me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hkejl6MYCwo
and trust me video does not even fully deliver experience, because everything is freezing, mouse not reacting and keys too, so try to imagine what it takes to get to that 20ā¦
also i hope Blizzard use this footage to find how and what needs to be fixed.
what makes all this 100x more frustrating and insulting is Blizzard posting 100000 positive tweets all day long, with texts like āzero problemsā āhow you got defeatedā āshare your cool experienceā and zero communication on game being unplayable. This is just outrageous. Beyond unprofessional. Disrespectful. Way to go!
I get a small stutter every now and then for a few seconds no matter what, also the game seemingly canāt run on high textures despite having some of the best tech available lol.
Iāve been having the same issues. I donāt think this has anything to do with graphic settings because I tried running on the lowest settings, at locked 60 FPS.
The stutter mostly happens in the overworld, but also a few times inside dungeons.
Game has obvious performance issues even with a super high end pc i recorded to show my issue that it just stutters every couple of seconds which is SUPER annoying i hope that someone would acknowledge it !
The first part of the video has lowered settings in the other part i max the settings back to high and there you will see alot of microstuttering i hope both of our issues will get fixed by release or if we are hopeful by this weekend open beta but i doubt it will happen
seems like all of Diablo 4 team in blizz is too busy posting on twitter tons of positive and funny messages, so likely there is not much hope that they fix it or even react propertly
Yeah well twitter guys are just people that usually dont know anything about the game and they write whatever there to show the game has good publicity , i hope that QA and actual people that make the game know about the issue and will fix it or rather work on the issues before game is released through driver updates and updates to the game have a great day trollface
usually, in healthy environment, and there are many examples with other games releases and community managers, this people come up with apology, list of major issues found, eta or roadmap to resolve them, WARNINGS TO PEOPLE WITH GRAPHIC CARDS THAT GET ROASTED that could save many people from loosing 1k$+ hardware, etc. But no, better just post funny memes as nothing happened
I get what you are saying, but that is just straight bad community work.
Yeah well i guess that you are right on most cases they do apologize about screw ups like that but right now they are protected because its labeled as beta so any issue we have right now is irrelevant because they can always say its a beta and we have already fixed the issue with our version of the game which you the dumb players didnāt have at the time of the beta and another note the ābad community workā that you stated i completely agree but most of it is just for shareholders and corpo staff that watch all of that those same people wont look at the forums they will look at more public place like social media and such we mean nothing to blizzard we are just paying sheep that play their game regardless of what treatment we get back from them because thatās how things are ofc not all of us but yeah most of the people (other then the ones with fried hardware) will be sure to play the game regardless of performance issues and other issues they will lable the game as dead game after a week ofc although it will not die at least for 2 years i believe if handled correctly with publicity stunts like trailers and hype from youtubers so we the actual players who play the game and try to make it the best version of the game for everyone to enjoy get rejected and ignored by this big company called activision blizzard , i swear if i had my own gaming company i personally would acknoledge every single issue with a smile and say thank you for the players who brought it to my attention because it actually makes the game better when these issues are resolved no matter if the incompetent QA team that they have see it or not since the tech support forums are filled with stuttering fried GPUās and many other technical issues so its a fact that this game has serious issues in terms of performance and beyond that before we even have anything else to say about gameplay and actual systems the game has to offer , if the foundation is broken the building will fall no matter how pretty it looks
I have massive stuttering when entering & leaving the main town as well. I have set everything to low but it is still the same. using 3060 Ti here. Hope Blizzard fix this before the open beta this weekend
Yeah, thatās really bad to be fair. I had stuttering due to excessive VRAM usage but it wasnāt that bad (and switching to medium textures fixed it). That honestly looks like when my hard drive failed and would cause massive freezes like that.
not mine case, apart from fact that way more demanding games run flawlessly - here is stats from drive where Diablo 4 is installes, its nvme ssd 980 pro, 2022 premium model

agree 100% it needs to be fixed i also tested some other games like metro exudus cyberpunk and red dead redemption 2 and all worked smoothly without any stutters, all of these games are 1000% more demanding then D4 so yeah its a game issue all we need to wait for is either an update on optimization or new drivers that might fix the issue or blizzard will simply say its not a game issue its your hardware like a good corpo company these days to reduce responsibility and blame the players .
Thatās why i said that some youtuber needs to say something about that issue since we are nothing to blizzard we are just wallets to them they dont care and honestly that mentality is really making me want to refund the game right now and vote with my wallet , its a shame that players are nothing to a company like that not even a blue post recognized that issue yet they said performance issues on older hardware well my hardware like many others in this forum that got 3xxx series cards or newer amd cards as well as 4xxx series cards with top hardware that the market has available still got these issues if this is not acknowledged at least with a blue post after this open beta (if its still there because they did change some stuff that might be related to it) then im going to refund and never buy any blizzard game ever again just out of the fact they dont care about any of their true players and care only about influencers like youtubers and streamers because of business decisions which is not a bad move but what is wrong that they ignore all other players even though we are paying customers and want to improve their game
