Draw Distance in Ground Zeroes.. Please improve it for The Phantom Pain.; Draw distance is really distracting and ruins immersion.

Developers use techniques like mip mapping and frustum culling in order to efficiently render graphics to a screen. Mip mapping is just the level of detail of an object based off of it's distance. The farther an object, the less detail. Frustum culling is just a technique used to draw only what's in the near and far clipping planes. In simplest terms, the game only renders what the player can see.

If I had to take an honest guess, I'd say that when the player uses the binoculars, the far clipping plane is extended - causing the engine to render finer details like soldiers.

this will deffo be fixed for the ps4/xbone.as for the last gen consoles,we can only hope.


personally i think this will hinder the game loads if left unfixed,especially during the online mode.i wouldnt even mind it if they nerfed the graphics a little just so they wouldnt have any issues with fixing it.

Oh yeah, it will suck ass if the problem persists in the MGO3... Imagine how bad that will effect the game, like hiding in a bush at the end of the map, but players can see you clearly because the bush failed to load in time...

Pop-ins needs to be gone COMPLETELY from MGO3, I hope KojiPro LA understands that.

I'd be VERY surprised if they didn't.

I couldn't care less about the scenery, but guards should be visible at any distance for the purposes of gameplay. As far as immersion goes, though, the pop-ins don't bother me at all. I don't even notice them unless I'm looking out for them and I'd much rather have pop-ins than a choppy framerate.
Agreed.
