@Cristari
GTX 980… With your card, I would not complain at all mate. In fact you are lucky you can even run the game decently and you probably do not even notice frame drops and pop in since your standards have to be kept low anyway.

This thread applies mostly to people with 1080 and 1080 Ti, cards which cost considerably more than your 980. If someone spends that much, they have the right to voice their concerns.

You did not buy me my rig or my Duke copy of the game so I don’t think you should be telling me what to do.

Thank you :wink:

^ Trying to be elitist dick and winning +1

Your actually sounding like a complete arse.

So owning a 1080 Ti and expecting good performance is being an elitist now? :grin:

YOU entered this thread and downplayed the issues we are having, trying to tell me how I should enjoy the game. Please go elsewhere

Replying like a twat is.

My 980 handels the game fine I have everything on High and Object loading in the middle with Blur on. From time to time I will get a scenario where it takes a little time to load things up and in some instances not load at all. I’m not complaining I would like to buy a better GFX card, I could easily do that but I don’t see the point. My card handles all the games atm very well.

What’s your issue? YHou spent all your months wages on a GFX card and want every game running on it to POP better. Seriously get a life.

Please go away troll. Lol all my months wages? Hardly! I bought a GTX 1080 Ti in December 2017, Upgrading my 980 Ti and have been upgrading to new Tis the moment third party cards land. Everytime I buy a card, I only have to pay a fraction of the cost as I always upgrade.

What is my issue? Lol the cheek :grin: I should be the one asking you what YOUR issue is. You came into this thread only to tell me that “All I read is whiney kid not happy that the game doesn’t look like real lifeon his PC. It’s not game breaking nor is it immersion disrupting. Buy better parts for your PC or just play games for what they are. Games.”

I am sorry but if you come into threads and make “Twat” statements, you shall only get “Twat” replies :slight_smile:

Once again, you didn’t buy me my PC or my copy of the game and you do not get to decide whether something should not be immersion breaking for me or other people who feel the same and you cannot tell people how they should enjoy a game so your intrusion and comments are unnecessary and irrelevant to this thread.

Surely reading through your reply you must realise your not going to get any sort of response from Warhorse Studios on this so complaining makes little to no sense.

Who is whiney?

If your allowed to come into this thread and complain about how poor you think the game is I have as much right to call you out on it. So with my last post in this thread I shall call it like I see it.

Whiney little kids crying because they are not getting 60+FPS all the time and that the game takes AAAAAGGGGGGEEEEESSSSS to load textures.

Waaaa!! Waaaa! Waa!!!

:laughing::grin::joy::sweat_smile:

I have to stay on the scorpgul side. If you decide to buy this gpu (or this computer), you expect to get what you pay for … no compromises. MINIMUM 1080p and all on Ultra 60 fps + - which is not met. And I’m not even trying to think about 4K. Currently, there are not much better GPUs except two TITANs that have higher TFLPS and something tells me it would be the same song. And fix me if I’m wrong, but the game was supposed to come out before the 1080 TI was on sale or even announced. So the best card was gtx 1080. So like ultra = wait and play it for 3 to 5 years with your next computer? …noo…c’mon! That is only excuse! Perhaps someone from Warhorse might be able to comment on whether this is being solved or will be solved or it is final…I believe they will not leave it that way.

I personally have I7 4770K, TITAN X (900series), 16GB RAM, SSD and I’m afraid to buy the game yet. I’m still waiting for the warhorse to do something, or I’ll be forced to wait for the Ampere series.

Titans are worse for the game, tested them already and got lower FPS because of the lower clock speeds.

Same here (on a 1070 albeit, but high settings, so kinda the same situation). It sort of evolved for me; at first it never happened, and then it slowly became longer and longer, and it has now reached the 1.5 mins mark. I can’t comprehend why though, I haven’t made a single change…

1440p, very high preset, can maintain 60+ FPS

But 60 FPS sucks, I prefer 100 FPS. So I turned down shader and shadows to medium, everything else at very high, and I can maintain 100Fps.

Not much of a difference between very high and ultra high in terms of graphics quality. Anyway, the game isn’t that unoptimized but it definitely could use work. I know the devs are working on it.

I get 60+fps too, but the random drops are what we are talking about here. The game is full of areas where brief microstutters happen. The fps jumps up and down. This is enough to disrupt the whole experience for someone like me who is used to butter smooth stutterfree gameplay on every single game out there at max settings.

A perfect example is in Rattay when you sprint from the bathhouse towards the stream of water. I am able to produce a microstutter there every single time. A lot of people here ignore these microstutters and claim 60fps+ solid. That is NOT 60+fps solid.

PCGamer and JokerProductions have all pointed out those sudden jumps regardless of setting.

i know this is not what you want to hear, i have an 1080 too. but the simple truth of the matter is, this ain’t no skimrimjob with mud textures and 2 light source max, and a urine filter standing in for post processing. you are never going to run this game butter smooth the whole way through on anything above high setting for the most intensive options like shadow, lighting, and texture. witcher 3 had the same issue with their ultra setting, people with top end hardware were mad they couldn’t run it at conssitent 60+ fps and that’s just the way things are for large scale npc routine rich open world games that also have next gen graphics.

1080Ti*.

I have a heavily modded Witcher 3, far beyond vanilla Ultra and play at 60 fps+ 90% of the time at 1440p no problem. This game unmodded at 1440p with inferior visuals meanwhile has microstutter/random sudden fps drop problems.

60+fps constant is not the issue here. In fact i can tolerate 50 fps constant no problem. it’s the random drops and microstutters that happen in the most odd places that kill it for people at the moment.

It goes like this at the moment: 72 fps, then stutter drop to 65, back up, after 4 minutes, stutter again, 15 minutes smooth, then drop again.

“I am sorry mate but you do realise its a 1080 Ti we are talking about here right? A high end card that costs considerably more than the lesser tier cards and blows them out of the water effortlessly in virtually every other game than this unoptimised mess out there.”

I feel embarrassed to share the same card as you. You really just need to tone it down and work on your attitude and you’d get a much better response from people.

I have a 1080ti with 16gb of ram, and an i7 6700k, running at 4k with a gsync. Game often sticks to the 60limit except in big battles and towns where it’s 40s and every so often upper 30s. Mostly out and about it’s 50-60, but this isn’t a very twitchy game so i barely notice it.

I don’t really know what performance I should be expecting.

EDIT - I got a nice boost from lowering water level all the way down. Even when I was no where near water.

Hello Duke;
I made this account just for you
So I ve got 3440x1440 Panel 2088 mhz Strix 1080ti and 4.7ghz 6700K and 3000mhz 16GB Ram.
I ve got the all issues you are having, I tried Refund 2 times from steam but they didnt accept.This game is not even initial release build.Scam devs, all texture draw problems joke fps,render problem and they DIDNT MENTION performance fix in their recent update WTF WARHORSE ???.
Also PLEB people keep in mind that there are NIGHT/DAY difference at ultrahigh and rest.
I think the problem is Triple Buffer + Forced AA, but you say its FXAA and it is not demanding at all,i thought it was forced 4x MSAA so i really dont know what cause this IDIOTIC performance.
people who complain ““i got stable fps”” YEAH WE GOT 200FPS + in 1080p too. But who plays in 1080p… in 2018 ??
The max fps i got is 70 in talmberg and worst is 28 in grocery store. ( everything is cracked to max)
I think i ve been scammed by this game.
edit: There was a dude claming gtx 980 is like 1080 ti in real time performance muhahha dude you made my day. What are you smoking ? 1080ti is like 4x times performance to a gtx 980

Lol WTF haha, Medium, Low settings, 30% draw Distance? What kind of peasant rubbish is that article? Even the consoles are using higher settings :grin:

I might as well stop playing video games altogether if I have to lower settings to Low-Medium, especially on a 1080 Ti. Of course you will see a massive boost in FPS at those settings since I am already at 70 fps more or less at Ultra High with some settings at High but with microstutters and shitty drops. but at the same time the game will look like vomit

Sad you didn’t read Close … :frowning:

Hello, I use a MSI GTX1060 GAMING X 6 GB video card with 6GB of video
memory, but when I access the game console, it says (about) 1956MB of
VRAM (but I have 6GB). How can i fix this? Does this bug affect
performance? (Other specs: i5-6500, 16GB RAM DDR4 3 GHz - detected
correct) - it is playable on low setting ( in towns at night only 25 fps)…
