Star Wars Outlaws: GPU Tests, Bugs, Artifacts and more...

Since some people here seem to have a 4" thick skull, I had no dealings with Ubisoft for this video. The sponsor was NZXT who also has no connection with Ubisoft. I felt I made that pretty clear but then again I didn't write it in crayon so maybe it missed the mark.

About the artefacts and visual bugs, could really be because this game is meant to be played with the cinematic aspect ratio, saw a Daniel Owen video just few days ago, where he explains it and shows show just switching from the meant cinematic ratio to the "commom" one drops your fps like crazy, also shows you a lot less of the environment on the screen, give it a try to see if it makes any difference at all

It was a sponsored video but not by Ubisoft. And he was fairly critical of all the artifacting he was getting in game even on high-end cards, you usually don't see that in sponsored content. I was just confused by the change in perspective. Perhaps it's just cause I know many people that still have 10 series cards that I still consider them part of the low end, but it is 3 gens old, maybe that's just too outdated of me and "low end" now is at least 20 series with RT cores, and the 10 series are now whatever below "low end" is.

Awesome video thank you for showing us how to get better results when playing this title, awesome work and video as always.

the rtx requirement is one of the dumbest things ive heard being required for a game. like i dont really care about the game but it sets a horrible president for future games if someone cant afford hardware that can play it, like the last time i got angry about a hardware limitation was when 3.5 mm headphone jacks were removed from phones.

[@Kr0noZ]

I kinda makes sense though. RT has been a feature on cards for years, so cards that are completely incapable of doing it are kinda dying out slowly but surely. It also makes development easier, saves time and thus money for the studios while (mostly) looking better IF the hardware can support it. Hate it all you want, it's the future of gaming at this point.

The only thing that I notice is certain things get ghosty. This is on a 7900 XTX.

[@selenaw265]

I`m on a Ryzen 5 5600X, RX 6800, 32GB RAM @ 3600 mt/s Playing on 1440p high preset, frame gen & FSR 3 on, raytracing on high @ around 100- ish fps I also noticed a few artifacts, but not as severe as in your video. Also this game is friggin" awesome!

[@drew3488]

Lol I just read through the comments 😂 I love it.

[@garydterhune8392]

Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RX 7900 XTX, 96GB DDR 6000. I put put Medium preset and toggled some setting higher. Managing about 130-140 FPS @ 3440 x 1440 in most scenes. I have not really noticed artifacts yet. Though still early in the game. From personal experience if "Outlaw" preset enabled and you turn on "Enable Freesync HDR" it will crash on an AMD card. The only way to resolve is to reinstall Windows 11 by reformatting.

[@NostradAlex]

Thank to you Jay for putting the effort in making this video, I'm watching it for you, however to answer the question in the title, I'm going to say no GPU will be needed to play this game since no one is going to play it. This is a game to be made fun of by everyone.

It was 1978, my buddy's dad in gradeschool worked at Philips R&D on VCR's. First videotape I ever watched in my life was Star Wars: A New Hope. So, also a huge SW fan here... (year of birth is in my name). My SW toys were pre-built. None of that LEGO stuff. Also a huge fan of videogames (Atari 2600 and Philips G7000 were the first consoles I played games on). From the Amiga 500 and on, I have been building/modding my own systems. Never bought a pre-built PC. (Yes, ...I am that old). 7800X3D + RX6600 (yup, the nub card) + 32GB 6000MHz memory + Winblows 10 (on M.2 drives). Running @ LOW settings. Getting 73fps average according to AMD's metrics on a 1080P freesync panel. No artifacts or weirdness (which was there in your video) P.S. I'm in the "Han shot at the right moment" group of people. Or in the "Who cares when Han shot" group.

[@Durandel-Asturias]

Why benchmark digital poop? Did Ubisoft sponsor this video? What's next? Benchmarking Dustborn?

[@thecman26]

Minesweeper

[@mccellenlol4163]

Or Concord…

[@TheEmperorHyperion]

​@@mccellenlol4163won't be anything to benchmark in about two days.

[@jabronilifestyle]

I was really looking forward to the Concord benchmarks dang..

[@AntiTako]

​@@thecman26 Don't you dare insult minesweeper, it is a fun game and it is free.

[@Ramshackle6984]

I have a 7900 GRE on a 7800X3D. The GRE is a great card for the money and with a simple OC it runs even closer to a 4070 Ti/S. I got the X3D for $350 and the GRE for $550 in 3/24. I highly recommend the GRE.

[@lostandabandoned7090]

Nice to know my 3060 isn't a realistic gpu anymore. You know some of us would rather have oh you know utilities at our homes, food on our table, gas in the tank instead of the latest 40 series cards. And here I was excited last week to finally get a 5000 series cpu upgrade....saved for a long time. I feel so inadequate sometimes. Can barely afford my own hobby. Bit disappointing I got to say. I'm guessing my 3060 might do 45 to 50 fps....or maybe I'm dreaming even then?? Either way, I couldn't enjoy playing it like that, won't even try. Reality Bites... edit: next day. I apologize for my sarcasism, I could have said that much better and sounded less, well dumb. Despite that I got some pretty solid advice and I got a "game" plan (pun intended) and I'm going to stop being such a whiney be-ach in the future and make my points better. Sorry Jay, didn't mean to be disrespectful, I'm pretty striaght now. Geesh, the nerd in me gets so angry!

[@atleast4566]

This. So much this.

[@fyrentinnimar]

And i was wondering what it was going to be like on my 2070 Super. seems like a stuttering mess.

[@Foxconnpc]

You will realize sooner or later that chasing AAA titles is a dead end.

[@Foxconnpc]

My 6950xt already feels dated. It struggles a lot in some titles. But it does not bother me anymore, since I have been playing indie and retro stuff for a long time now. Got a gamepad for my phone and replaying my favorite stuff from 3DS and PSone

[@lostandabandoned7090]

​@@fyrentinnimar Ok, I admit I was a bit whiney, yet I did have a point. Alot of us simply don't have the latest gpu's. I know mine will play it, but how bad would it be?? Or maybe it might surprise me and do ok, yet how would I know? How would you? We're left guessing, that sucks. I can't afford any of those cards he showed either. I got lucky getting this card. btw, I also had a 2070 super, I sold it to help get the 3060....not so sure it was actually worth it overall, there was some gains, but not as much as I had hoped, so ya....likely a stuttery mess as well here. Won't be downloading it not knowing either. My internet stinks..at least a 12 hr download and then I'd get charged for going over my 200 gb data cap, yay for me. Got screwed with Redfall, and got an extra 25-30 bucks on my internet bill. Ya, won't be making that mistake again. ouch!

[@showsropper]

Watch out DF, Jay is doing some serious in-depth visual quality test.

[@-darkangelic-]

Remember, Greedo had his blaster pointed at Han. Han shot Greedo first. Greedo’s blaster then went off after he got shot. Hence blaster mark on the wall.

[@bruceplenderleith838]

in this game you'd have to shoot Greedo five times in the head

[@kafarske123]

Not in the original 😊

[@longjohn526]

5800X, 4070 Ti, 32 GB 3600 dual rank DDR4. I haven't seen any of these artifacts myself but I'm still on Toshara. However in the main bar on Toshara the bartender disappeared but you still see the metal glass and the towel used to clean it just suspended in mid air and moving around.

[@schemage2210]

There is ABSOLUTELY no reason for any game, new, old or otherwise to be artefacting that badly. We shouldn't have to wait for a day 1 patch (or worse a patch months after release), to fix the most obvious bugs that should have been detected prior to launch.

[@patrickg7708]

0 GPU. not worth it!

[@azjeep26]

nice to see a game review with real hardware case usages we dont get too much of that normally...

[@marioStortuga]

Watching the video just because its you but the game is meh

[@ebojager]

Great video, always looking for tips like this :) On my i7-13700F and RTX 4070 (12GB) 64GB RAM at 3840x2160 , 120hz (55" S90C), Locked at 30fps. So far, I got the best look and performance with Upscaler off , Ray Reconstruction Off Frame Gen off, RTX Direct Lighting Off, rest of advanced is a combination of Medium and High using the Outlaw base with Streaming Distance at 100 and Object Detail at 300 with an added graphic .cfg change ["streamer dedicated budget"] = 4096. This is also the first game I've actually left Film Grain on. The clarity and performance with these settings are very impressive in my opinion, looks and plays great! The game is so much better than the past week before launch KZbin reviews, leads people to believe. By the way I never saw any artifacting on my machine at all. I dont have Gsync On, so maybe there is an issue with the driver too? Im on Driver 537.58.

[@pRaX85815]

So it's not only a terrible game it also gaslights you into thinking your GPU is kicking the bucket. Good job Massive/Ubisoft.

[@eldraque4556]

this is soooo helpful, thanks Jay!

[@marcuswright8418]

Have some respect for your GPU and don't benchmark this trash.

[@matteo_z]

If you liked Jedi Fallen Order, you'll love Jedi Survivor 10:49 that's not popping, that's an issue with a 3d model that's being stretched by the game engine

[@gasracing5000]

13:55 "I don't give a $#!+ who shot first." - Harrison Ford 😂

[@jenna6872]

😂😂😂 apparently he isn’t paying attention

[@deanderlp6892]

Thanks for the clarification on Raytracing if you can turn it off entirely. Something that wasn't said explicitly in other reviews. This just really smashed my will to buy it.

[@rameezahmed3863]

I'd rather use the electricity and GPU for something else

[@pino_de_vogel]

The "Fuzzyness"is all panel related. I have a LG 1440p and runnning 1080p looks sharp. But i always loved the LG scaler on my tv's too.

[@legiox3719]

That asmongold video of him hiding in the bushes is comedy gold. What crap ai

[@nam666-n8k]

I am looking forward to playing this game. The quality looks really impressive. Cheers for a great video as always.

[@TheRHIM]

Im just glad to have the content to watch while I do some chores. Thank you for the vid! ……Regardless of Disney/star wars sucking hard. :(

[@Anthony-fd8mh]

So glad you got the artifacting because I did as well and was wondering if it was one of my settings. Hopefully they can patch it out. I was pretty much in same area you were in. My rig is a 13900KS on MSI MEG Ace MB with intel settings 253w, 64 gb ram and a MSI Suprim 4070Ti (non super because they were not out yet when I got it.) hope this helps ya some.

[@CatSpittingFacts]

Imagine buying a GPU based on it's performance in Star Wars Outlaws.. That's a bad financial decision if I ever seen one.
