performance problems
I purchased the game maybe a week after release? I had a ryzen 7 5700g 64gb of ram and a 1660 super. Wasn’t able to refund the game for some reason as I was gonna wait for performance fixes. (For context I love the game just have technical issues) I later upgraded to a 3060 with 12gb of vram and I’ve been able to play a lot of my games on high with no issues however the forest still runs about the same to the point I have to lower resolution and play on low. I’ve reinstalled multiple times and reinstalled every driver I could. I even completely reinstalled windows to no avail. If anyone has some advice or questions feel free to respond ^^

It could be the game honestly since someone I know with a 3060 also had troubles too lol
They did optimize it a bit in the recent patch
You could also contact the devs too. I remember someone else having an issue where their game started crashing out of nowhere and the devs actually helped them personally
And clearly this is something unique since you have a 3060
That should be more than enough for the game
I’ll do a fresh install and gather more information about it. It’s sometimes playable however if I go through a bush my game explodes
And almost makes me sick when it snows.
I ended up having to play it in 720p last time at like 10% resolution
Really beautiful game and I still want to finish it. Had so much fun playing the first one ^^
Yeah I say your next move is to contact the devs honestly
That other person did the same stuff as you too
Ahh I hate to ask anymore questions. What would be a good way to do that? Sorry if that’s a bit of a stupid question
I am not entirely sure but I can look into it real quick
Thanks sorry if it’s a lot to ask or anything ^^
Nah you are fine
Well what I could find is that you can make a post on https://www.reddit.com/r/SonsOfTheForest/ since apparently they respond a lot to bugs and such there. You could also post on the steam forums like https://steamcommunity.com/app/1326470/discussions/0/3770113150030009093/

There might be a better way of contacting the devs but for now that's what I found
If I find anymore then I will let you know
Thanks again ^^ I’ll try making a post
Alright, hope you get a solution to the problem
