[FrostMoonEcho]

Quick summary

As you see in the video there is some strange black reflection which moves when I move the camera. Also bloom on water reflections are pixelated, but the water shaders in general are good

Poor antialiasing

Broken texture meshes

A drowning man (happens on PC version as well)

Flying objects (happens on PC version as well)

Rare bug which happens only at some circumstances with a only specific building

Making reports with resolution scaling is not allowed. These could be the result from that.

I disabled it. Still see the same issues.

However this one might disappear, but I'm not 100% sure about it as it happens randomly from specific angles and distance. Also the lower resolution makes it harder to be spotted

Comparing this to a real PS3, these quirks don't really seem to be issues. The weird black artifacts are just the reflections being heavily distorted from the waves. This game does not use any form of AA, so the aliasing is very bad and the tiny holes in geometry are more noticeable when scaled above 720p. This doesn't seem to be an RPCS3 issue, just how the game is.

@alexconsole04 Sadly. Don't you know any way to apply antialising to this game?

[alexconsole04]

You can't give a game AA if it never shipped with AA in the first place.
