Issues unresolved
Hangs on black screen with FSR Framegen enabled when using Steam Overlay
- May require an end task to exit game.
- Disabling Steam overlay will fix this.
Effects like wind, rain,... becoming pixelated at random
- Set vsync to half refresh rate from 144hz might solve this issue.
Issues fixed
Cannot log into PSN (stuck on white window)
Disable AdBlock in your browser[4] |

Disable Async Compute
- Requires Registry tweaking and having launched the game at least once.
- Pascal and older GPUs are severely underutilized with Async Compute enabled. Disabling the setting leads to substantial performance improvements. [5]
- Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Sucker Punch Productions\Ghost of Tsushima DIRECTOR'S CUT\Graphics
- Double click on 'AsyncCompute' and set the value to '0'
- Exit Registry Editor
Standoff key/button not registering
- Fixed in an official patch.[6]
