What about the trees too? Everything's fine until I get slightly too close to a forest and everything shits itself sideways.

How do you release a game without having a LOD for something that's going to be on screen in large groups 90% of the time?

I love loads of the small details in this game but a lot of the decisions they made to cut time so they could release baffles me.

Sounds like they have LODs and swap them in a little too eagerly. Otherwise you'd render more stuff, further out.
