Bad optimization Xbox S Path of Exile 2
Good afternoon, dear community. I want to share a clip that demonstrates the poor optimization of Path of Exile 2 on Xbox Series S. I really love this game; I played it for over 3000 hours in the first installment and purchased the second one as well. Please help spread this post, as it seems the developers are unwilling to address the optimization issues across all platforms, especially on consoles. I have repeatedly contacted tech support regarding these problems in the first game, and now I am facing the same issues in the second. The optimization problems were present in the first game, although they were not discussed as much. Tech support mentioned, "We can't fully optimize the game on all platforms because of the outdated game engine." I understand that, but with the release of Part 2, the optimization is even worse than in the first installment. Where is the logic in that? In the clip, I am using a T6 map and opened a breach with FSR set to balanced. I even lowered the settings further, but it did not help at all. In the clip, the FPS drops below 10 at certain points; during several previous maps, it fell below 5. This really upsets me. Some of you may suggest that I buy a PC to play, but as a student with limited savings due to my studies and a congenital illness that requires frequent hospital visits, my Xbox Series S is ideal for portability. Please encourage the developers and tech support to respond to our community's concerns. Have a great gaming experience and good achievements! (Sorry for my English.)

" I can play on minions with flame wall only on bilenear 720p... And even with this fps some time drop to ~22(NIS and FSR provide better visuals, but the minimum and average FPS are also lower). Also make sure you update xbox. For me console update, boosted the minimum FPS by about 50%. Last edited by talraashi#8263 on Dec 16, 2024, 3:25:55 AM

Console players are all facing the same issue. Personally, I play on PS5, and the game has been unplayable since Act Two—I can’t even imagine how bad it must be in the endgame. It’s an early access game, so it’s normal to encounter frequent bugs, but at this point, the gameplay experience is completely ruined. Unfortunately, I’ve had to stop playing for now.
I’m waiting for GGG to take the necessary steps, and I’m confident they will because they are known for listening to their players. GGG, we’re waiting for updates from you to reassure us that you’re aware of these issues and doing everything in your power to fix them as quickly as possible! On our end, we just need to be patient, keep discussing these issues, and continue bringing them to GGG’s attention until they’re resolved. |

I play on PS5, currently act 3,
minions and ice witch. Right now I don't experience any major problems. Settings on NiS and rendering is set to my screen-resolution. |
