PS5 Performance and sound issues

Hello.

I'm facing a big problem with the game's sound.
I recorded some videos to show as an example.

Another problem I had was in the fight against the boss in act 1.
Lots of freezes and I don't even know how I survived the fight.

yeah i think alot of ps5 players are having the same problems (think xbox too) think the console port for the new league hasnt been optimized well granted i only got the act 2 mines so maybe its a act 1 problem cause if not its only gonna get worse (i have 2k hours and only had issues when 0.3 went live with stutters caused by huge fps drops with)

i tried it in standerd and it worked okie so its the new league mechanic causing the problem i think granted i only tried one map which broke my sound but all we can do is wait for a fix

cause im holding off on buying the £65supporter pack untill its fixed i see ps5 pro players getting just bad or worse preformance then me and i have the base ps5

The problem is also present in subsequent acts. The sound is so jarring that you have to reset the game. After a while, the situation repeats itself. I play with headphones, and changing the sound settings does not work and does not improve the situation.

In addition, the game's performance is currently terrible. It's worse than in 0.1 and 0.2, the game doesn't work at all on PS5. Previously, I reached level 88 with several characters. Now, due to lag/frame drops, it's impossible to finish Act 2.

Two more examples.
It happens quite often.

Same problem here on ps5 pro.

Has GGG provided an answer regarding console optimization yet?

You can't transfer stashtabs from PC to PS5.

On top of that, the game is completely unplayable.

PS5 players are being severely impacted; they're the only ones unable to play normally for three leagues and are forced to repurchase stashtabs.

GGG, please do something about this, because it's not looking good.

Adam from GGG replied that they would address the sound, essence, and strongox issues. But the lag problem seems to be nonexistent; no one from GGG has addressed it. Apparently, nothing will be improved in this league; it's some larger optimization issue. I think it will be fixed before the game's launch. I'm giving up on this league; it's back to waiting for the new league in POE1.

Also having massive FPS drops during graphically intense fights. I'm a witch for reference so there is a lot going on. Gonna have to drop the game for now because I can't see or react to anything in the Act 1 fight agains Count Geonor.

On Xbox, the dynamic effects (spell,combat) channel can blow out and go silent. I only had this happen in Act 4, which leads me to think its a new content issue with compression/corruption/channel management.

The only fix for it on xbox is to fully exit and shut down the game then restart it.

It 'mutes' that channel, though... With ambient music and PC/NPC dialogue being unaffected. Thank goodness! That PS5 racket sounds like my alarm clock from the '80's. :)
