I'm on a high end PC and noticed the draw distance downgrade immidiately after the patch. Just as frustrating is the pop-in lag now that was created from these changes which is baffling as I never experienced it in the 100s of hours I played prior to the patch.
Revert mythical settings and changes on PC.

@HruodbhertSasha it's all placebo, mate! ;)
lol placebo? are you kidding me right xD, did you play the alpha or the beta ? or even the first release? I know you are a "founder" and "insider" , but i dont think you paid attention to those details ...

@Captin1080ti With an NVIDIA card (i'm fairly sure one can do the same on AMD, i just don't know where) you can force x16 from the control panel.
It works and considerably improves texture filtering in game!

@OrsoSilvano I suggest you read
- who's OP of this thread
- what was the context of me writing that (just scroll a little above on the same page) ;)
Thanks for bumping the thread tho!
haha the forum is very confusing, but yeah i get now that was a joke xD

that helps only the texture filter, not to increase the LOD, anyway i was thinking that since its UE we should be able to modified the INI files to increase the LOD..
@super-poopsy said in Graphics downgrade since 1.0.1 patch:
@OrsoSilvano Exactly, if it was a 'normal' steam game, we probably could easily do that, but UWP apps from the microsoft store are encrypted and packed on a single giant file :(
yep, and that's terrible .-.
@super-poopsy Ive been totally wondering about that.
We jokingly said "They went Early access AFTER realease!!!"
Same thing happened with Elite Dangerous. (Still going on i guess)
Graphics got downgraded hard and nothing was done with it for almost 2 years.
All just to make the game run "properly" on the xbox.
YAY for console power!!! said no one ever. Siiiigh.
Unfortunately this happens often to games :(
I was experiencing the same. First I thought my eyes are getting worse xD
It's really better to put the settings back to the "old" ones. For those who can't run this game at mythic, there are other options. Thats why there are more than two graphical options. Please RARE, bring us back the old beauty. Of course do something for those people who can't even play the game on low settings. But don't pull it down for High-End owners, please :(
@snakeyheadnl said in Graphics downgrade since 1.0.1 patch:
Wee wil se what happends tonorrow their wil be an patch comming
where did you read that?
Yep, I remember that happening in Elite Dangerous, right after the Xbox version released.
@OrsoSilvano Although i'm aware there was going to be a fix for the ships-respawning-too-close issue during the next maintenance (Wednesday), I can't seem to find the source where i read about it.
Moreover, i have no idea if it will actually be a patch, another fantastic 19GB full client download (eh...) or a server-side fix during the maintenance.
So please take this information with a grain of salt!

@D-Kyzar Yep! Floating low res trees, low poly land, no detail objects whatsoever, no shiny items (treasures/bottles) and of course no players/skeletons/animals till one is way too close.
@super-poopsy these are the things that break immersion during game play and make the game a lot less fun now.

1080 ti, mythical detail.
just no.
@Rare-Employee fix please.
To anyone who thinks this is a placebo (or 'Mandela' effect) please explain how so many of us noticed the drop in quality and then came here to see if we were going mad. You're assuming that a small handful of people thought the graphics had been downgraded and started complaining about it and then everyone else just jumped on board and developed these 'false memories', but I'll wager most of us here arrived at our own conclusions without any leading whatsoever.
I didn't read the 1.0.1 patch notes before I installed it, didn't read the forums or watch any streamers, and the very first thing I noticed was that the graphics were worse. I assumed my settings had defaulted back to 'Rare' and I was in the middle of a game so didn't bother changing them. A couple of friends joined me a bit later in a crew (this was the first time they were playing after the patch) and within a few minutes they were both commenting on the graphics looking worse. I suggested that our settings had probably changed but when we all checked, they were all still on 'Mythical'. The salient point here is that we all independently noticed the graphics were worse without any of us being 'influenced' by someone else (even the patch notes don't even say what they've done).
I seriously hope the upcoming patch will revert things to how they were. When an enemy ship is approaching mine, I want to be sure of how many people are on it and what they're doing WELL before they're close enough to sucker punch me.

@TobyOneKenobe This is not even the only thread about the subject, it's just the one that got lucky and managed to get some visibility. The very same day the patch dropped I counted at least 4 others on this forum and a bunch more on reddit. Of course they all got buried down by people spamming threads about the guy who cheesed legendary status or some other meaningless topic... :(
@super-poopsy Yeah, this is a pretty major blow to their "We don't want PC to feel like a port" when they cripple our PC graphics because xbox has framerate issues. Those two things shouldn't be linked in any way. Makes it feel, well, like a port.
As FYI, I contacted support on this and they did confirm this as a issue. So people aren't crazy. I was hoping to have resolution for this 1.0.2 but guess we have to wait longer. Due to this and a random ship sinking bug I just haven't been able to play. Hopefully they resolve soon. Easy enough to give players the option of performance enhancement as I never had Xbox performance issues. Now lighting is so bad I just get depressed when I play.
@Umbrae Thanks for reporting this, i'm sure this thread will appreciate it a lot!
I'm still patiently waiting for an official answer from a dev, i've seen they've started posting again since yesterday (only community managers for now, but that's a start i guess)
Yeah, I might just go ahead and write a ticket to support and see what they say. Will post here the results.
Rare if you give us more graphics settings we can do half of your work kind of , we can optimize the game to run best/ to our liking . This is probably one of the only games i wouldn't mind motion blur in , but its not there. So many other things as well. I applaud the quality of the game and all , but please consider adding things we expect as pc players even if it has to be expanded over time im fine with that. A must have that's not graphics related is individual sliders for the sensitivity one for look sens and one for ads

LOD it's not a placebo, it's a problem that need to be addressed.
