Since updating to Patch 5, I've noticed a massive new texture pop-in issue. After I load my game (which loads faster since updating to Patch 5), I find myself looking at an empty skybox or low-res ground texture (even my party's character models are absent) and have to wait a couple minutes while all the textures slowly appear in-game and then sharpen. This issue doesn't occur on saves made aboard the Nautiloid, only those made after landing on the beach. I've tried a variety of solutions. but nothing fixes it. The only thing that seems to have an effect is that the pop-in is marginally quicker if I switch from Vulkan to DX11.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem or something similar?


Once more I am falsely accused of whatever it is that I am accused of. Falsely.

Yes. Sometimes when loading in I get an almost empty map, just ground texture, and then everything gradually pops in. It didn't happen in patch 4. No issues on the Nautiloid either as you mentioned, everything is smooth and loads quickly there. But I guess it is because of the size of the map. The main map is much bigger, you know? Unfortunately for me, outside of the Nautiloid area, my 2-5 minute loading times for save games haven't improved at all.

I've noticed, at least for me, the pop in also affects far away characters in cutscenes, which can look hilarious, doesn't happen a lot though. I saw my character far off in a cutscene and her make up was gone and popped back on as she got closer, it looked a bit spooky not gonna lie!

Yes I am also experiencing this. It's really strange, and definitely didn't happen in Patch 4.

And i thought they messed up "Viewing distances" Checkbox in options, when set to medium.
Seeing more bushes then before, popping up late.
On my slow CPU i5-4670k (+ Nvidia RTX 2060 6GB) i even see my characters in Underwear for a splitsecond when going into "level Up" Menu.
