The performance is as bad in single player after recent update(s) as in online from what I hear just fyi.
Original PS4 / Single player offline mode
Thrall skins do not render quickly at all
Game often freezes for 2-3 or more seconds. If I look at any container seemingly high probability of a freeze.
Sound effect lag
Glitchy intro
That was all before the latest 22gb update and the game was borderline unplayable for me already. Yet people are suddenly complaining about issues of gameplay that I have been experiencing before the update, so that’s a little confusing. I’m not going to update yet, from sounds of it might make it even worse.
My advice to Funcom… fix this fast because on ps4 its very bad gameplay. Fix it before you release new cool stuff is my advice.
If you are at the exiled lands map, I suggest you to try and create a character at siptah map and transfer your character to siptah.
Then via the settings of your console delete the exiled lands map and open the game to create a character on exile lands map, then transfer your character from siptah back to the exile lands.
If you are at siptah, same thing.
The intro is glitchy to me too.
Note
At the copy character screen watch out cuz the game might foul you with the notification “process timed out”. When you see that message wait for few seconds or minutes and you will get the notification that copy was done.
