Crimson Desert has recently received an update that brings some graphical improvements. Despite these improvements, the performance of Ray Reconstruction remains problematic. This feature leads to a significant reduction in frame rate when activated, as the lighting settings must be set to maximum.

Graphical improvements and persistent issues

While the latest update fixes some graphical issues, performance is significantly impacted when Ray Reconstruction is enabled. It is reported that when Ray Reconstruction is disabled and lighting is reduced, the “neon green grass” issue has been fixed. The differences in settings are now less noticeable, especially when exploring the open world.

Continuing challenges with the visuals

Despite the fixes made, there are still visual bugs, especially with shiny objects and armor. These often do not meet players’ expectations. These flaws contribute to the fact that the graphical presentation of the game is not yet fully convincing, although the basic content is considered impressive.

Future updates and player hopes

Developer Pearl Abyss is continuously working on further patches to get the visual and performance-related problems under control. Players express the hope that future updates will comprehensively address the existing challenges and further improve the gaming experience.
