Hi all, Do you play with motion blur on or off? I really can't decide which one I like so I am asking for you guys' personal preference.
Off too. there are things that bug around with it, and when framerate shits itself the blurred frames just get too much for me.
Third the "I have it on". Exactly for what was said, it gives great feeling of speed, it makes it look very much like watching a train driver's video.
Couldn't imagine playing without it. It is a must have for the sensation of speed. Also helps blur certain ugly parts of the game.
I have it turned on. It's wonky looking a lot of the time (especially the wheels on older TSW2 stock) but when I turned it off things the lack of it on the track/railway ties is jarring and looks less realistic IMO.
On for me! Makes it much better! However, if you can't decide, perhaps play with it off. There will probably be a tiny and basically non-existent memory saving that can probably be used to load Frankfurt Hbf instead. You can turn it on if you miss it later down the line, then turn it off again if you remember to get bored of it!
I play with it off. I would love to play with it on but that will have to wait until I upgrade my Laptop, as it is a piece of trash and can barely evan handle the game on low graphics with it off, let alone on.
Always on for me, as already mentioned you get a much better sense of speed. I wouldn't be without it
I never even thought about changing this settings, but I gave a try to turning it off and it's certainly interesting change. The scenery overall is much crispier and less soft, and especially the passing trains look way better and more consistent for the whole time they are in view. I didn't feel like it took away a whole lot of speed feeling even when doing 160 km/h. I will probably leave it off for a bit more and see if I like it that way.
It's not ugly, it's realistic. When you are riding a train and look down at the tracks, you will see it blurred most of the time (unless you try following the sleepers with your eyes). Same for close by scenery, because looking out a window you will usually be looking at distant stuff, not the trees and fences up close to the tracks (since they go by too fast).
Yeah... I know exactly how it looks. The effect looks ugly, the most realistic thing about the game is the broken content, ironically.
I turn it off in every game and not only in TSW. (and in some other UE4/5 games it's only possible with editing Engine.ini, so one thing good in TSW is that it's possible to switch from within the game).
Whenever I have motion blur turned on I keep getting this one issue where I’ll pass by a train sitting in a siding, and suddenly that train turns into a blurry mess out of nowhere. So alas, I turn it off.
Right. I accidently turned it on a couple of weeks ago. I thought my GPU was dying for a moment there..
It looks NOTHING like realistic to me, I've never found a form of motion blur that remotely approximated what stuff actually looks like when moving at speeds IRL. To me, the stuff moving past within a short distance at high speeds in real life looks more like a Zoetrope. Sharp and in clear focus, but flickering. Closer to something like the TAA artifacts we see in TSW and other games. If I had to hypothesise, this difference in perception between those who appreciate motion blur and those who do not might be related to frequency and speed of autonomic saccadic eye movements.
I've tried with motion blur off and... it's so flat. All objects at the edges have suddenly lost volume. Instead of a green wall now is the separate sharpened trees. To me the graphics in dynamic is lost too much without motion blur. Also camera movements became weird(I can't explain why). Everything started to feel like an old cartoon which was remade in 60 fps. And I've got a visual bug on CTC-3 side window(some stripes), which aren't there with motion blur ON.
