I'm off the controversial opinion that we see how the game runs before complaining about how bad the game runs.

You people and your games running badly probably never experienced running Doom in windowed mode at 720p on a dying 750ti. At 40 jerky FPS. And it was awesome get off my lawn. (I'm confident it'll be fine at launch or very quickly afterwards.) GRINDCORE MEGGIDO fucked around with this message at 04:50 on May 4, 2017 |

In fairness to Bethesda's DOOM trailer, it better represents how I play shooters than the nvidia trailer where it looks like someone taped down the W key. I play slower to try to avoid winding up being ganged up on and prefer to pick off targets instead of running laps around a room aggroing everything. The Polygon footage, on the other hand, has no excuse.

the polygon video is like the dude was holding the controller with his feet while drunk. pure comedy.

Well, I'm temporarily cash-rich and permanently willpower-poor, so I just bought this and I'll be VPN'ing it sometime tomorrow morning. I'll report back if I experience any heinous performance issues.

I'm optimistic about Prey's PC performance because it doesn't run on Dishonored 2's engine but on Cryengine which has been proven as trustworthy time and time again in many games.

Despite getting amazing performance and not amazing but acceptable graphics with unreal engine 3 in the first Dishonored, Dishonored 2 uses the ~VOID~ engine which they made themselves based off of idTech 5. This new engine provides such benefits as ??? and markedly decreased performance using any graphics setting, low or high.

Cowcaster posted:i've been trying to hold off on commenting on the whole dishonored 2 performance stuff because I'm obviously crazy biased but it's claimed that the whole fuckup with that launch was due to nvidia releasing some broken loving drivers the week before dh2 launched, and then launching a set of "new" drivers a week later that was actually a rollback that corrected 90% of the performance issues people were having with dishonored 2. The Nvidia drivers didn't help, but no. The game was still unoptimized and stuttery as poo poo even a month after release on hardware which should chew that game for breakfast (i5 4690k, GTX 1070, 16 GB RAM) and it wasn't even that graphically impressive either. It's good to know it's been fixed now but it also shouldn't have released in that state either.

I waited several months trying to play Dishonored 2 on my GTX 960 back then and it was impossible to squeeze out acceptable performance on any settings. I had to upgrade to a 1060 specifically to be able to play it.

Deus Ex: MD's was actually fixed within two weeks or something, unlike Dishonored 2. I was at least able to play it on a GTX 960 with reasonable performance after the first big patch.

I'll be curious about that too. They kept saying day one patches were ironing out all the input lag and bugs. The concept and story look great which is right up my alley, but the demo was absolutely horrid to play through due to massive control issues. And whoever designed the controls on PS4 for action items should find a new line of work, because that was some of the most ridiculous layout placement I have ever seen.

GTX 1060; 1080p/Max Settings; Lowest fps I get in the apartment is 85. It doesn't say a lot but it seems to be at least better than Dishonored 2 in term of performance. I don't think any place in it gave me 85 fps.

I've got a VPN into Sydney, and even set my time zone as such, and changed my content server to NSW, but the game isn't unlocking. Am I missing something obvious here?

Mindblast posted:seriously curious how something like missing speech was not picked up during testing. They were literally playing PC version of Prey on stream yesterday with no issues. I think the problem is not with the game but with Steam distribution. They probably messed something up when it comes to players downloading the correct localization files from Steam.
