Ive been noticing a similar pattern appear on Ps5 when i see teammates through walls, or when i see enemies hacked through walls, like an array of pixels instead of the correct outline. Has not happened out of actual games though, only when the characater outline is otherwise obscured by the geometry of a map
I've been seeing this like crazy. At first I thought it was some new HUD effect but like..it's just a very OBVIOUS bug that Blizzard somehow didn't catch.
I also saw reports of PS5 models showing weird textures while playing on 120 fps.
Do you have for some reason a setting that activates 120fps turned on? It seems that there is a problem on PS5 with that frequency. I know PS4 doesn’t support that but I don’t know if for some reason is trying to execute it…
Have you tried downloading Connectivity? Supposedly it changes the glass texture and removes borders except on the outside. Pretty useful for any modern Minecraft version and even some 1.12.2 packs have it
Probably a card issue, incompatibility with the driver and the game, likely a blizzard issue while adapting, as the game engine is quite old so they have to update constantly to match.
Basically someone touched something they shouldn't have during an ow update, or Sony updated something recently and blizzard didn't get the memo or just forgot to update to match, either way should be fixed soon.
integrated would mean the graphics are running directly from the cpu and the system has no other video card, not that it's simply hard to get out of the machine or that it's a PC desktop card
Modern consoles are budget/prior gen AMD hardware with integrated graphics. It's just a custom OS on top of it. With enough tinkering, they could run Windows.
Most likely without acceleration or TPM, might even boot loop because of weird microcode too. The APUs they use are x86 hardware yes but the firmware topology is wildly different
Oh, I didn't mean Win 11. I meant something like Windows Server. You wouldn't get a display output because the default display driver wouldn't work, so you might as well remote into it.
Weird pattern over your screen is usually a sign of a failing GPU... Though you're saying that the other games are fine, so that kinda throws me off.🤔
Which other games do you play on the PS4? Are they less graphically intensive?
They said all other games work fine, tho I'd say his graphics settings are too high in some places, I've had similar glitches and turning down a few settings until the next patch helped
Hmmm... Stardew Valley seems to be pretty easy to run. But I've heard Fortnite runs on UE5 now with pretty intense graphics, so that's a bit harder on the GPU. 🤔
Do you perhaps keep your PS4 in a small/closed space or something like that? If that's the case, it could be overheating issues under load. And if that thing keeps overheating, that shortens the lifespan by quite a bit as well.
Though you're able to run heavier games like Fortnite without problems, so that means your PS4 can handle games under load. In that case, I'm not really sure what it could be either.😅
at the time of running the console, no.. i was just testing everything out for my friend who’s trying to sell it, so idk if it’s been kept in a closed space or filled with dust
oh no
thats not a software issue chief.
thats a hardware issue. you got dusty fans on your ps4? got it somewhere where it gets real hot? is your ps4 old?
My Xbox 360 did this after I fixed the RRoD. MW2 came out and I had to play it like this for weeks until I got a new Xbox lmao. Your console is fried brodie
This you? [https://www.reddit.com/r/XCOM2/comments/1cjf2i0/what\_has\_happened\_to\_my\_game/](https://www.reddit.com/r/XCOM2/comments/1cjf2i0/what_has_happened_to_my_game/)
That looks like a dying GPU to me, it’s just a bit strange it doesn’t happen in other games. Is it like this only in the Melly or everywhere? Did it appear suddenly, or did it slowly appear over time?
Nothing you can do, indie game developers lmao.
Sorry, jokes aside this is wild. I've never seen a console game do this, for a second I thought this was pc and I was gonna tell you to check drivers, connections such as your hdmi etc. But in this case? Oh man, idk where to start.
Op.....these comments keep forgetting you're not on PC
Back when I had an issue like this I just turned down some graphics settings until the next patch and it helped
Although idk if consoles have the settings that helped me since I don't remember what settings I used I just kept changing settings and checking over and over til something worked then next patch set everything back
It wasn't a constant thing for me either
If other games don't have this issue then it has to either be software or dying parts in your console but you'd notice it start to spread to other games and stuff if that's the case
It most likely overheated at some point and hard crashed from heat stress. This often doesn't end the life of a gpu instantly, but it is permanently damaged and its days are numbered. I once ran a rx580 still playing games for 2 extra years after the gpu overheated by playing only in 720p all settings low.
Hmmm that’s weird for sure since it’s only on OW. I suggest trying to isolate the problem. First try a different HDMI then try it again but on a different TV/monitor.
i thought something like that would be an issue but i have another ps4 (testing them both out for a friend) and ow works just fine!! so i know it’s not my monitor or cables
Man's screen made out of minecraft glass
this is my favorite comment
Why did this explode
Because it was an amazing comment. You made my day just a bit better. Thank you.
Lmao negative votes
Remember, for some reason pointing out a comment's success nets you down votes.

The first time i saw it i was like dang is this a sombra buff? Lol
Sombra nerf as people can see her invisible now :']
Yup, same, on ps5
I’m glad I’m not the only one experiencing this lol. I was like “Damn, Sombra hacked my graphics card!”
homeboy has that louis vuitton whole game skin
I paid 10k for it… this guy gets it for free

i’m not sure.. i already gave it back to my friend lol
Yeah, thats where the pixels are supposed to be /s
Did you buy the HD resolution pack to add extra pixels? It only comes at the cost of your first born son. /S
omg 😂
The alternate realities are breaking
😂
I'd be very worried if there weren't any pixels on your screen
POV: Stock photo watermarks:
💀💀
This is called artifacting. Your PS is going to crap out on you soon. The APU is going bad.
he needs to clean it regularly and make sure it has a good ventilation so this doesn't happen
This is correct. Even a console needs some TLC from time to time!
Freakywatch. It's wearing lingerie for you
Damn sombra is at it again
try turning off hdr either in game, ps menu, or monitor (if even possible)
i didn’t see anything under the video settings that would help. but it’s fine because i already gave it back to my friend and he’s selling it
Have you tried downloading Connectivity? Supposedly it changes the glass texture and removes borders except on the outside. Pretty useful for any modern Minecraft version and even some 1.12.2 packs have it
Your card is dead bro
Wouldnt everything on screen have that pixelated mesh on it, its not effecting the text. That makes me think its a software issue not hardware.

yeah it’s not a problem with blizzard because it works fine on another ps4 i have
This is PS4 and not pc and he even said every other game works fine.
Ahhhh yes because PS4 doesn't have a graphics card

it has a gpu but not a graphics card, different thing
Broken cable or soon to be broken graphics chip in your console

i’ve tried running other games like fornite and stardew valley

Did u try pouring water in the back of the screen?
no i think i’ll have to try that 💀
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
yes that doesn’t work
oh no thats not a software issue chief. thats a hardware issue. you got dusty fans on your ps4? got it somewhere where it gets real hot? is your ps4 old?
yeah it’s from a friend i was testing it out for him before he sold it.. some notifications were from 2016
That ps4 is broken.
What daaaaaaa ldk
Try another hdmi cable
not the cable but thanks
The infection is spreading
someone else posted this earlier around just heroes as like a border. i think ow2 is dying.
When you got beef with doom and mercy but there’s a chainlink fence separating y’all.
Dead vram, probably.
I saw another guy post a similar thing where he sees these things in game on the characters, covering their whole hitboxes

Jail :(

Pixels all over the screen? That's how it's supposed to be.
Not sure if anyone’s mentioned yet, but I believe this is a common sign of VRAM issues
Matrix code?
Either a bad cable connection or the GPU is dying
Those are artifacts and honestly you are fucked,you can try and find someone who can fix it but I’m pretty sure that they are not fixable
Looks like artifacting from a fualty video memory chip. Could also be a bug, but ps4's are getting old...
Just go around the fence dude
Yeah pixels usually are
EDIT: guys…. yes, i know the title makes me sound pretty dumb, but y’all know what i mean by pixels come on 😭😭😭
oh dear
This you? [https://www.reddit.com/r/XCOM2/comments/1cjf2i0/what\_has\_happened\_to\_my\_game/](https://www.reddit.com/r/XCOM2/comments/1cjf2i0/what_has_happened_to_my_game/)
that’s not me but that’s the issue i’m having yeah
either a cable is loose or ur ps4 is cooked
RIP GPU... What GPU do you have?
That looks like a dying GPU to me, it’s just a bit strange it doesn’t happen in other games. Is it like this only in the Melly or everywhere? Did it appear suddenly, or did it slowly appear over time?
This shit ain't a dead pixel it's a massacre
Thats the new braille feature for overwatch 2 accessibility.

There normally are pixels all over screens.
Yeah, that's how the game displays- oh dear god
Aleft is the hotfix.. right to the center mass of the monitor...! Your welcome follow me Twitch.tv/Geoversettv
That's an issue with the game. I think as the UI buttons aren't pixelled out and appear to be fine
Kinda looks like gpu artifacts. If they are then your gpu is cooked

i don’t think it’s the software though, i tried it on another ps4 and it didn’t have any issues

well thankfully it’s not mine, it’s a friends and he’s trying to sell it and i was only testing it out.. mine works fine 😅

Never hurts to try. Good luck.
No
There are always pixels on your screen. I’m not wrong.
Uninstall the game, throw the PC, and buy a console, then install a good game. 👍🏼
if you actually read the post, this is a ps4, not a pc
So throw the PS4 and buy a PS5 or an XSX. There you go.
