I remember talking about this in another thread a few days ago, and honestly, the 1st comments say everything...

"Upscaling was supposed to help lower-mid tier cards gain playable framerates, not serve as a crutch for poor optimization."
"No game should require upscaling to be playable with modern hardware. A 4090 struggling at 1440p without upscaling is a joke and sign of incompetence"

unreal engine versions usually come out with a game as a demo or beta test of what the engine can do, a tech demo essentially.
These tech demos used to be Unreal\Unreal Tournament but lately it seems to be any thing but that, that all i see this game as.

The tech demo with little to no optimizations or fixes, UE 5 will get various updates fixes and tweaks so it can run on a potato and then it'll be UE 5.5

They did the same thing with 4 and the ones before it...

i'd rather there be a new UT game instead though
