Roll back the graphics downgrade please it just looks so bad now compared to pre patch when it looked great.

Everyone please add your voice to this request so we can get the Ultra textures back to pre patch levels, thanks.

I really hope this is just a bug in the new patch. This graphics looks awful compared to pre patch, and very disrespectful to people who spend lot of money to enjoy a beautiful game in its full glory.

For me it’s not only the graphics. Wartapes sound preset is always on despite what preset I use. Resetting the sound did not helped. The game is ruined for me. Sounds are horrible now. It’s even worse than graphics issue.

Did they optimized CPU usage at the cost of visuals? I hope not. Graphics looks now like a bad console port. You need to now adjust promotional pictures accordingly or you’re DICE doing false advertising.

They did a poor optimization.

On some maps I get less CPU usage but it comes with less GPU usage as well. Everything was better Pre-patch.

Before this patch, I very seldom saw high ping players, talking 150+ ping. Now on every server I see several 350+ Ping players. WTF did they do?

I’m one of the people that got same or better performance since the patch. But I also noticed the graphics seemed more washed out/blurry, even with AA turned off. There’s definatly something off with the textures since the patch, and they need to fix it. Just bought a new gfx card and more ram to enjoy the game at max details, but now it look like it used to look at Medium, only I’m running Ultra.

Yeah I noticed a lot more high pingers on servers today, its as though the server ping limits have been removed with this patch. I saw several over 250 and one guy was 690.!!

agree ASAP fix that bug,this is ubisoft level of downgrade congrats DICE,the game is now false advertised,we give our money for one product and get another..the change is so obvious,especialy for ones who bought the game before this patch like me and others here,but people who buy this now they will never now,and for that is DICE hoping,so this thread needs more people and bumping…

We need Ultra settings to look like they did pre patch, now Ultra looks like medium and in some cases low. Something which looks really bad now are the piles of ammo shells. They used to look shiny and round now they  
are dull and hexagonal if you look closely at some of them ☹

interesting, the shells always had hexagonal ends for me. I’m going to check and see if they are worse or not, I was on a server last night but cannot say I noticed anything different. Can anyone give me an example that I can actually look at in game? or is it just a washed out look over all?

its running smooth,but looks like ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯…no depth to the game anymore like it was,lightning is dull ,and something realy missing…some people just cant see and i dont blame them,just hope more people will see the so obvious difference..and Halogen1337,this thread is not about how its running,its about how bad it looks after patch..this is not free to play game so developers can experiment with this..

I agree, pro and ks8000 65 was beautiful, taking a break until they get out fixed. Good thing i didn’t buy premium yet.

I notice the change in graphics & at 75% brightness the game looks darker than before the patch.

Heres another forum thread about the graphics: [What happened with the graphics? Edit: DICE is aware of this issue and investigating it.](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/what-happened-with-the-graphics-edit-dice-is-aware-of-this-issue-and-investigating-it/102688)

Hundreds of people complaining about the graphics downgrade. Screenshots too. Ultra looks like low pre patch.
