I'm pretty disappointed with how UE5 affected my performance, Al-Basrah cut my FPS in half however I was running consistent 80-90 FPS on epic graphics. Game would freeze for 2-3 seconds when spawning in (Assuming it was just re-rendering foliage) Goosebay, Gorodok and Manicougan also reduced my FPS a significant amount and also had freezes when spawning in. The majority of complaints I heard from squadmates was mainly the performance of the game, stutters, fps drops and obviously new glitches. I will say you did a neat job on the new foliage, it looks very pretty especially the trees on manicougan.
As for the updated gun gameplay it was pretty good, I was able to steady my gun much quicker and actually shoot at the enemy fairy accurately whilst being shot at, I also got to play the HAT kit and for the first time since ICO was released I actually got to enjoy shooting the enemy vehicles without having to worry about noodle arms.
Vehicle physics were very odd and definitely need tweaking, In light vehicles it felt the steering inputs were delayed by a second and was noticeably jittery-like when driving on a flat surface, textures were bugged on the canadian TAPV and on other vehicles the wheels were clipping through the ground whilst driving.
Overall I wasn't too impressed nor too disappointed I'm pretty neutral, as someone who usually talks shit about this game I do have hope that they can now start fixing the game more efficiently, its probably the first time I actually have a little hope that the developers can turn this game around and point it in the right direction.
A couple of tips for people struggling with fps, I found that frame generation being disabled may boost fps for some people (odd I know) and playing in fullscreen may also boost fps.
