Why is the SSAO effect so bad?

[moniker 67]

Can we fix this or are we stuck with this for life?

It's just terrible, shadows pop in an out of the screen, they move in weird way with camera angle movements, even at maximun detail levels (SSAO blur passes 8 ). It kind of makes the animation look cheap, but disabling SSAO is even worse. Will it ever get improved to decent levels?

I advise these settings:

SSAO Radius:6

SSAO Power:125

SSAO Blur Passes:8

 

It isn't perfect, as it'll still be hideous close up, but should be good for most situations.
