catlord posted:I'm playing with a Radeon HD 6650M and can play New Order on medium settings, more or less, well. I tried the Doom demo and kinda got it to work if I set the options to make it looks somewhat like I was playing DOS Quake. So to answer your question, assuming you're not super, super out of date with video cards, they should, but how well is a bit more up in the air. I'll play on low i don't mind i just wanna shoot da mans. I already pulled the trigger on new order before i thought to check on min specs cuz i didn't think I'd be below that but oops hopefully i dont get hit with a screen ssying lol get out of here with this scrub tier hardware after downloading all that  Internet Friend posted:Doom has a demo you can try. Good idea i forgot about that

Then another, then another... This summarizes my initial interactions with Half-Life 2's demo. Well, that and the part where one of the windows became a wireframe when Father Grigori shot a zombie through it...

I concur, also Max Knight: Ultra Spy is good. (awesome b-movie where they go into the game Half-Life!) [as seen in the middle of this vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ku5S2EEcgWw&list=PL39431A9847F15C7E&index=9] Whole movie is worth a watch or three though!

I think an argument can be made that all of Ubisoft's games assume it's your first time playing. They rarely compound on each other enough for me to justify playing everything in a series so my favorite "Far Cry" ends up being the first one I've played in 5 years then I never buy another one until I get that craving again.

I played Crysis and a few other "sandbox shooters" with "emergent gameplay" and was bored stiff. It wasn't until Far Cry 3 that the formula really sang for me, mainly by removing all the frustration and tedium.

So, trip report Wolfenstein does in fact run on a radeon 5870 with the lowest settings so i got to spend the night mowin down some nazis The texture streaming is a little janky tho Hopefully ill get away with doom as well but at least i have new order and im assuming old blood as well?

Like I said, I kinda got Doom4 running, but it looked like a DOS Quake mod and still ran at just sub-30, or at least that's what the FPS counter told me, though if you do get it running better than that I'd like to hear. I would love to pick it up.

I'm currently playing DOOM on a GeForce GTX 560 which I believe is very under spec. It actually runs great on Low. I did have some weird issues with the demo, though -- not sure if they patched it later or what.

You can get DOOM running on below spec hardware. But.. it isn't pretty. This is the best I could do. I gave up and bought the PS4 version.

I tried to run DOOM on a Athlon II X4 635 and the slowdown got pretty ludicrous in some stages. Eventually I just put it down, will have to try again later.

I went with renting it on PS4, and it ran like a champ. I'll probably buy the PC version when it's cheap later on now I've got a PC that can handle it maxed, though.

I have an i5 3470, 16gb of RAM and a GTX 660 OC2 and I can't even hit 60FPS at 1080P in Doom 4. Only game I can't play at 60FPS in TYOL 2016. No real excuse for that, considering it doesn't even look all that poo poo hot for the performance issues.

I just ran DO4M for the very first time on my toaster. Core2Duo E8400@3.20GHz, Asus GT730 2GB DDR3. 4GB RAM, Win7 Pro 64bit. I had to disable absolutely everything and set 640x480 resolution, the game loads for good minute before the logos start to appear, all the menus are nearly unreadable... but it loving works, and quite smooth at that. When things go hefty, it slows down a'la Painkiller, without loosing the smoothness. I'm absolutely amazed at the technical prowess of the devs.

The game just doesn't handle well with 2gb. Apparently any 3gb or higher card will run it like a champ. Once you eliminate that bottleneck it should run at 60 on most PCs.

nftyw posted:Wait you need over two Gigs of ram? How much video memory do the X one and ps4 have again ? They both use a shared pool of 8 GB of RAM (with at least 2 GB reserved for system use because they can both run other applications at the same time as a game) for the CPU and GPU, which are integrated on the same chip die. There's additional caching RAM but that doesn't really matter. It's typical for 2 or 3 GB of that available RAM to be "dedicated" to the video stuff.

My video card only has 512 MB of RAM, so I'm not sure what the deal is. I'm too lazy to go check what my processor is, but I haven't upgraded anything since I was playing all them "Cry" games we were just talkin' about. Like I alluded to before, the demo of DOOM had an issue that made it nearly unplayable on my PC -- it would grind to a choppy slog every few minutes even on Low. But I was given the full version as a gift and to my pleasant surprise, it worked a million times better (still on Low of course). I think in between, they released the first major patch for the game, so I'm not sure if that had anything to do with it. (Before anyone asks, I'm not using the Vulkan API. But it was part of that patch.) I have no idea if they've also been patching the demo, so I guess it's kind of a crapshoot of anecdotal evidence unless you bite the bullet and try it yourself.

There's additional caching RAM but that doesn't really matter. Yeah, they probably allocate JUST enough VRAM out of the memory pool on consoles to hit a constant 60fps. They're not having to deal with hardware variance on PS4, at least. Plus they can probably code a little closer to the metal on console. The PC version is just a bit of a VRAM hog. The moment you hit 3gb (even the budget cut-down $200 1060 now has that) you're golden. Still, they did patch it quite a bit after release, so maybe it's not bottlenecked as bad as it used to be. Edit: Oh yeah, if you're looking for a Magic Bullet type upgrade to get most modern games running 1080p 60fps, max detail, the GTX 1060 is it. $200 for the budget version, $250 for more VRAM/cooling (futureproofing, mostly). It's more powerful than the old 980 at under half the price. Dominic White fucked around with this message at 03:17 on Sep 15, 2016 |
