oh so i guess we need super Nasa computers that nobody can pay for to run the game huh? i know a few people and probably tons of other strangers with High end systems that still have tons of issues with this game xD dont blame users systems for the poor optimization this game has like srsly the bad peformance doesnt even give you anything in exchange the textures etc arent making up for it or anything...
Nope, and I have shown that before. I'm not blaming users for poor optimization, and I will agree that there is a lot of optimization that needs to be done. Main reason I never enable reflections in the game in fact.
But even accounting for that, the game is perfectly playable on nearly decade-old hardware if it is properly configured and the system has been optimized to get the best performance. IF you take into account that you need to adjust the settings for the hardware configuration and features that have not yet been optimized.
The biggest issue I have seen is people thinking that just because they can get 500FPS in GTA-V, and 170FPS in CyberPunk, that they should be able to get similar results from an un-optimized game that is still being developed. So a lot of you just enable it for 4k with Ultra settings because you think you should be able to, and then you piss and moan when that doesn't work out in your favor. Never mind that you should not have expected that to work in the first place.
