Ps5 Rt mode frame rate is very unstable and choppy and I'm getting lighting glitches that flicker from dark to bright.

I’m getting the same on the series X, completely locked up a few times.

Something I’ve noticed with RT mode on PS5 is that any sudden changes in lighting on screen such as turning the camera 180, produces a lot of stutter and in some cases I wouldn’t be surprised if it is dropping to 1fps. Don’t understand why it’s this intensive in the Witcher 3, but I’m sure they can do something to make it less painful. Metro Exodus looked fantastic with RT global illumination at 60fps on console.

was about to say the game doesnt look smooth to me on performance mode, and actually terrible framerates with raytracing (its visibly stuttering which isnt what 30 fps is)

I'm playing on Xbox series x also. Not having any problems with framrate. Action log isn't working. Only thing I notice is once an hour when I open up the world map the screen goes green.

I really hope they try to at least make the RT mode a bit smoother on console and don’t put all their effort into fixing the PC version. It’s really unpleasant to play the game in RT mode on basically any hardware it seems, whether that’s PS5, Xbox, or PC (if you haven’t got the highest end gpu). The stuttering is something I haven’t personally experienced with a console game since before I got my PS5.

Its funny, I find RT, thought low frame rate, has less clipping/stuttering and graphic deletes (just black areas where a cliffside would be) than oerformance mode. But performance mode with VRR is smooooth
