Turning this off improved my performance quiet a bit on my PS4 on those performance hungry courses. So thanks for the hint! Been driving me bat chit crazy, designers have been jumping hoops for months to accommodate the consoles, it takes hours and hours to change a course, when all people have to do is 2 clicks and it's fixed. Most of us don't know about that setting to be fair - this thread is the first I've heard of it. Out of curiosity, what difference does switching it off have on the visuals - is it draw distance or DoF or something else? I haven't tried it yet but I will

Makes it look better on all platforms, it does not play well with direct x, even in their own studios videos I see they have it on and watch the screen tear. "Depth of vision" in your display settings, everyone should shut it off, game performs far better and looks better. .

The setting is 'Depth of Field' and yes, it certainly improves performance on PS4 with minimal if any cost to the visuals. Had a play with it this afternoon and the game ran smoother for sure.
This setting should be recommended more widely

The problem is nobody knows about this setting. I know I just changed it a few days ago based on this thread, and it does seem to help. I've had the game since August and I never knew what this setting did. Actually, I still don't know what it does, I just know to keep it off.

I've just posted in 'Driving Range' specifically about this setting - hopefully more people will see it there

I've had it off since day one. Never played a round without it, so I can't really compare. When I buy a new game one of the first things I go to is "Settings". I read "may improve performance", and I turned it off immediately, no questions asked. Now, don't get me wrong, it's not a magic pill... some courses still get some chug. But Lion's Gate isn't one of them (at least after it finishes loading).
