Best NTE: Neverness to Everness graphics for no lag and max FPS

NTE: Neverness to Everness is now out on PC, consoles (PS5 only), and mobile devices (both iOS and Android), and you can tweak the in-game graphics to get the best performance on your device. This is mostly applicable to PC players, since the number of options on other platforms is limited.

So let’s figure out how to get the most out of your hardware.

Best NTE: Neverness to Everness graphics settings

Before I deep dive into the settings, here’s my current setup.

• NVIDIA RTX 3060 12GB
• 16GB of DDR5 RAM
• AMD Ryzen 5600G

If your specifications are comfortably above the minimum requirements, you won’t need to make many tweaks. You can just go with the default settings that NTE: Neverness to Everness will set automatically. The following settings are primarily aimed at low- to mid-range devices.

• Graphics Quality: Smooth/Performance
• Resolution: 1920×1080 (depends on your setup)
• NVIDIA DLSS: On
• DLSS Super Resolution: Performance
• Anti-Aliasing: Off
• Frame Rate: 60
• Texture Mapping: Low
• Texture: Low
• Foliage: Very Low
• View Distance: Low
• Post-Processing: Low
• VSync: Off
• Sharpening: 0.3
• Saturation: 100
• Motion Blur: Off

Here are brief explanations of the settings I chose.

• Vsync is something you should turn on only if you have a powerful rig. Otherwise, you’re saving the load on your setup and improving the performance.
• There are several instances of stuttering I have experienced at higher frame rates. Hence, I went with 60 FPS. NTE: Neverness to Everness isn’t a shooter, and you don’t lose much by playing the game at 60 FPS. It’s a number at which performance appears smooth and consistent. Most importantly, it stopped the stutters.

That’s pretty much all you have to do to get consistent performance if you’re playing on PC. A note: the general performance seems rough for most players (according to the internet), so I expect a few post-launch patches to address the issues. If you’re past the tutorial stage, it’s time to set a team. Our tier list will help you get a strong start that quickly clears all types of challenges.

Far Far West has five different primary weapons to use in the game, and they’re all unique in their own ways. While I will certainly have loved more options, the guns completely change the gameplay, and more so once you learn to master the spells.

But that said, let’s look at which weapons are the more effective ones to use.

Far Far West primary weapons tier list

Since there are five weapon choices, I have just used two tiers. None of the guns are bad, and they progressively get better when you upgrade them.

• S-tier choices are the strongest options to consider. They’re extremely lethal against all types of enemies.
• A-tier choices are quite close to S-tier options. Once you get all the upgrades, they can be considered as S-tier.

Disclaimer: I have yet to unlock the Leveredge, and I will analyze it quickly and add to the tier list below.

S-tier

• Minigun: The Minigun is an absolute nightmare for enemies of all kinds, provided you find the correct spot to fire from. It has a massive ammo capacity, great damage, fast firing rate, and pierces enemies with ease. The only limitation is the speed at which you move with the weapon. Just make sure to position yourself correctly so that enemies can’t hit you from the back.
• Shotgun: Far Far West offers you different build options if you want to play aggro. The Shotgun is ideal for those who want to get as close as possible to the enemies. While the gun’s accuracy isn’t ideal, that becomes redundant once you’re close to the enemies. You can one-shot most types of enemies and clear waves in quick time.

A-tier

• Quad Cylinder: As a starter choice, the Quad Cylinder isn’t bad at all. It’s accurate, shoots fast, and works with different types of builds. My major complaint is the lack of specialization with this gun. Yes, you can make it more focused by upgrading it accordingly, but it just feels like a Jack of all trades.
• Long Ranger: If you know how to manage enemies from a distance, the Long Ranger is the sniper rifle from the gods. It does an unholy amount of damage with each shot and clears the field without any problem. However, it doesn’t suit my preferred playstyle. If you want to play as a Marksman, the Long Ranger is S-tier as well.

There are several sidearms present as well, and they have different playstyles. So far, I haven’t found much use for them. They’re useful when you don’t have primary ammo and are surrounded by enemies, but they all appear to belong on the same levels. Moreover, you’ll be mostly spending time with your primary to kill the enemies.
