Shadow pixels

hey, I have a problem with shadows. I play about 20 minutes and everything is fine, but after some time, some shadows look like pixel... it's hard to describe...

If I change quality shadows from Very High to High, and then back to Very High the problem is gone (not always, it works sometimes), but it's annoying to changing quality every 10 minutes.

Anyone has this problem too?

I was changing every single setting but nothing works :(

The problem is fixing by seting Shadow Quality to "Normal"

But I have GTX970, I don't want to play at lowest settings :/

Ok I found solution

Set "Soft Shadows" to "NVIDIA PCSS"

now it's ok :)

Truth, it doesnt happen with nvidia pcss, but that type of soft shadows has a rather large perfomance hit.

 

Anyway, those pixelated helicopter/plane shadows, is that a game bug or it has to do something with us having GTX 970 ??

I don't know, my brother has AMD R9 280X and he hasn't this problem

No it doesnt, its okay with PCSS, at least for me ...

 

I noticed now that this bug happens also while driving, sometimes a pixelated square appears in front of me...Soft shadows : Softest

About this shadow bug that happens when you pilot a airplane or a helicopter...... Auk3MLV.png

 

...Is that bug also present on consoles (PS3, PS4 or Xbox One) ???

Bump. Has anyone noticed this issue on PS3, PS4, XBOX One ?

I don't. I've played on xbox360 and I've watched a lot of videos from PS4 and there aren't bugs like this.
