POP in on Consoles is bad and where is the 40% more GPU on the PS4???

Look at this quick video i made and see how imo very cool objects such as faction banners not even showing up on buildings until you get close. I even had a mushroom cluster pop in and out just a few meters away from me...

The PS4 has a 40% better GPU pretty much, so why the XB1 parity? no offense to the XB1 but come on... can't we have better gfx and less pop in and actually use all the consoles power?

It took developers years to realise the full potential of the PS3. In comparison developers have only just scratched the surface with the PS4 and Xbox.

The consoles so far though have proven that they can handle quite a lot already, which leads me to believe that the popping graphics you're seeing is down to lazy devs. Which is a shame because they have a gem of a game but don't seem to be able to muster up enough will power to look after it. You'll see a few more crown store mounts before they look at popping graphics I'm afraid.

i did a gfx comparison with my pc game on max and my PS4, you know what i noticed more than anything else on the bridge outside the starting daggerfall city? The huge banners draped down outside the walls... They should have made effort to make at least certain objects long range visible like these for a start, and i'm sure a few mushrooms on the ground are hardly an fps demand, i mean 2-3 meters pop in lol. I really hope they start to care one day soon but after the 57 page chat box request with not a single dev reply i doubt it.

Yeah a chat box would have been a great move, but (and I'm sorry to have to say this) with Zeni being as lazy as they are I, like you, won't be holding my breath. As for the graphics, like I said up top, the PS4 and Xbox are both capable of more. It's just a shame Zeni seem to be chasing money via crown store purchases than bothering to fix the bugs people are reporting. Which in turn would give the current player base a sense of gratification knowing that they were being listened to and players feedback wasn't being read without action. Unfortunately that dev, community togetherness is lacking with eso. If you don't have your player base onside then you've lost already and lets face it, Zeni, ignoring your players hoping they might go away is the biggest mistake you could make with a new (to console) mmo. Try replying to peoples topics, even if it's just a "Thank you for finding this bug, we're looking into it" you'll notice how much happier they start to become.

Sorry, I got a little off topic there, I just felt I needed to get that out.... Err, Yes, graphics on PS4 can do a lot better.

It's probably torchbugs and deers reducing performance again. Kill them all!

On the upside of things I find pvp runs much better then my awesome pc for some reason.

"Soldier! see that keep over there? we need to know if it's friendly or enemy, but due to pop in we can't tell so you go run up to it and check, don't worry if you get a ballista in the face we will notify your kin."
