Bad optimization? It happens on my GTX 970 too, and is mentioned in Digital Foundry's hardware tests.

Judging from the fact that every Australian flag that joins my UK flag lobby readies up immediately before getting booted, Ozzies have never looked at a map before, or just don't care about the 400ms difference.

I've "only" got 8 gigs of RAM and the game runs perfectly. Any game that runs at 60 fps on a PS4 isn't exactly going to be a brutal PC killer.

MonsterEnvy, check if your game is running on your discrete GPU or the lovely one strapped to your CPU.

Not really sure how do do this. Unless you just mean make sure the game is using Nvida.

I'm gonna take a guess here that since you're on a laptop, you may be encountering that Nvidia bug where it tries to use integrated graphics instead of the discrete graphics chip (your GTX 760m). Try updating to the latest drivers and do the following:

quote:

1. Open the NVIDIA Control Panel from the desktop's context menu - right click on your desktop and choose NVIDIA Control Panel from the list.
2. go to Manage 3D Settings->Program Settings tab
3. Hit the Add button (this might take a while to load) than choose Layers of Fear from the list and push the Add Selected Application/Program
4. Under 2. set your Preferred graphics processor value will to High Performance (NVIDIA Card) and hit Apply.

I just copy and pasted it from a Google result.

EDIT: In that case, your laptop may just not be able to run the game that well. Look around to see what frame rates people are getting on a similar setup. Make sure to look for results that are from a mobile i5 and a 760M. The mobile i5 CPU's are a lot less powerful than their desktop versions. Same goes with the mobile 760M.

Have you tried messing with resolution scaling? Like, bringing it down to maybe 75-80? Are you running Windows 7? I know Dias mentioned that going from W7 to W10 fixed any framerate issues.

[edit] Try these settings:

Rendering - 80
AA - LOW
Post Processing - LOW
Shadows - MEDIUM
Textures - MEDIUM
Effects - MEDIUM

What's the native display res of your laptop panel? Or do you have a monitor connected to your laptop?

I sold my TE fightstick a couple months ago but I've got the fighting bug again. I'm doing OK on a cheap fight pad, but how's the MadCatz Alpha as a cheap/entry level stick?

I picked up a Madcatz SE stick for cheap off craigslist and put sanwa buttons/stick in it (~$40 bucks) and it works great. The default buttons are unusable, the stick is actually not too bad on the version I picked up, and upgrading the parts is very straight forward and basically just requires a screw driver.

Page late but I did a lot of exhaustive research to save myself from having to spend 150+ on a fight stick. I checked out fightpads, sticks, older sticks, older sticks with mods. PC users have a lot of options, which it looks like you found a good one, but PS4 users don't.

PS4 controller is slightly worse than the Hori FC4, so for 30 bucks on sale if you want a pad this is a no-brainer. The new Madcatz pads are utterly useless poo poo.

If you want a stick skip right to the Hori RAP4 Kai, 150 bucks. The Alpha is loving trash, especially for 80 bucks. It should be 40 like the Hori Mini, which is also drat near unplayable for realistic SF5 play (good for arcade games I hear though)

If you have 50 bucks more to spend on your stick the TES+ has Sanwa components and is constructed a bit better than the Rap4 (I'm mainly talking about dimensions and weight and the non-fight button placements) The TES+ and TE2+ buttons (sanwas) are flat out better than the Hori in house buttons, but both are 100% usable.

Time a jump or qcb p over it (don't do this unless you have a ridiculously good read, you will be punished and regret it)

Still better than android clock

So my Hori RAP4 Silent showed up today. Initial thoughts:
  • Haven't noticed any lag yet
  • I'm pretty sure I can push these buttons with a strong thought. Lots of accidental presses thanks to years of bad practice on arcade machines with some play in the buttons. Are these things touchscreens or something?
  • Man this stick is short
  • Four degrees of freedom in a joystick feels effin weird, and the DP motion feels like it's getting resistance in all the wrong places. Is there an aftermarket plate I can put in this thing or is just just an eccentricity I need to get used to?
  • Speaking of freedom on a joystick, I'm not sure I've been to the planet where this thing is silent. Every move has a noticeable clunk sound associated with it.

"Silent" in this case is like when you attach a silencer to a pistol. It's not "there is no sound" but rather "it is quieter than this other, extremely loud thing."

You should pick a new character or quit this game. You're gonna end up killing yourself or committing a murder bc of your crappy character

Here is how you should feel about the characters you play: I like Chun. She is fun and has nice-feeling buttons. She has a tool for nearly any situation, and though her only reversal is metered and her damage can be lackluster, overall she is solid and I enjoy playing her.

Do you see the difference between this attitude and your approach to Laura?

I haven't had the game ignore my stick without switching to another window, but have you tried alt+tabbing out and back in? For some reason I have to do that most of the time when I launch the game to get it to read my stick. It also usually launches minimized or in the background or whatever for some dumb reason which may be related. Alt+tabbing also sometimes (emphasis on sometimes) "fixes" my framerate back to its usual troubled self when the game inexplicably decides it wants to run at 30fps just because. I'm getting the distinct feeling that the pc port could have benefited from a little more dev effort.
