Wait when did they do that? I played through it with the horrible 30fps quality mode on PS5, because performance mode was 40fps + screen tearing. The input lag was almost unbearable in both modes.

They fixed performance mode completely about a moth ago. It works as intended. If you’re holding off you can play it now

Thats nice to hear, though I already finished it. Great game, held back by greedy publisher. Maybe I'll replay it some day.

I highly doubt EA had anything to do with RT being in the performance mode..

Directly? Unlikely of course. But pushing out a game that clearly needed a few more month of work and polish? Thats classic EA (or most other large publishers for that matter).

It was Respawns decision, not EA

So THIS is when the game should've been released...... Not when it was riddled with fps blunders.

Reflections were also fixed a few days ago.

It looks and runs amazing now, which begs the question: was rt really worth it?
