His i5 isn't a 2500k though. I'm guessing he has a Lynnfield i5 seeing as he said in another thread that it's running at 2.67 GHz. I think it's the CPU that's the bottleneck.

great news- once I finish the game on PS4 and fix my PC it will be time to experience definitive edition then.
Yet my 650 SC 2gb struggles to even hit 30 windowed with all available settings turned off or to the lowest.
It's really the FOV that is crippling, but yeah it actually does suck in this game.

magic isn't real...at least not on consoles :-(
it's almost as if people think tango are as talented as the resident evil 6 development team and can just do the same thing they did.
Easy first place to check would be the house early on in chapter 4, with the
doctor's brother
Seems to be the same for me, I don't have to use the console command anymore though.
I may have missed something along all of these years of PC gaming but most games run better in fullscreen mode than windowed.

Steam is saying Update Queued for me
Was using flawless widescreen but it would be nice to piss it off and just run the game dry....

And what about PS4 ?

My FOV cheat table doesn't work now
Why does the game look decent here? Mine looks like a washed put putrid piece of junk.
I need an FOV fix, plis. I can't play like this.
Might be the sweetfx settings I'm using.

remove black bars from consoles too. I cant stand not having the full TV screen.

Figured as much.
Will stay capped at 30fps I think.

If they remove the black bars and render more details the FPS problem will get even worse.

This patch is useless to me, then. If the game's performance isn't improved, removing the black bars would only make it run worse. I tried playing it at 30 fps and it felt terrible, but uncapping it fluctuates too much.
Goodbye and good riddance, idtech5.

did they patch in a real full screen mode? I want to be able to use the gsync mode on my monitor

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
4gb VRAM isn't enough?
I'm not expecting 60 fps but a patch to fix fps performance it's the minimum.

Relevant to the thread...somehow http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/9840-The-Evil-Within-Review
I've never heard of a 560ti with 4gb. Although I haven't seen reports of people having trouble running this on older cards provided they keep the 30fps lock.

Cool. Does it also fix the terrible story/characters and one hit kills/trial and error stuff?
What the game looks like with Cinema Mode turned off on the options menu, no console commands or outside trainers used.
Screen not by me, though.
So exactly how it looks like with flawless widescreen, right?

Yes, it totally does, funny guy.

They haven't fixed the weaker (compared to the PS4) depth of field effect.
Still, this is nice.
Wasn't that due to the increased frame rate? I read on a thread here that locking to 30 will solve that. Personally, I'd just disable the thing. That and chromatic aberration are just crap
It has nothing to do with framerate.
I've got a Lynnfield i5 750, and I hover around 30-40fps (1080p, AA off), with rare drops under 30. Game is unlocked to 60fps, and I'm using Flawless Widescreen hack (no black bars).
Rest of rig: GTX570 (1280VRAM), 8GB RAM, SSD.
My CPU is overclocked to 3.7Ghz however, so it might well simply be the clockspeed holding Yoshi back, as our PCs seem pretty similar.

This sucks. Sure some things are fixed now, but the worst offender (the FOV not the black bars) is still painfully low. This would be fine... If the patch didn't also make Flawless Widescreen unable to work. Now I don't know whether to wait for Flawless Widescreen to update as well, or just try my best to get past a Ch. 10 boss with the extremely low default FOV. (I just did, and where last time I played, it was easy to keep awareness of the traps around Sebastian, this time I couldn't even see a trap I had set off until I panned the camera half a screen.)
I wish I could revert this patch, but usually that isn't possible as far as I know.

No performance optimizations, still getting the same FPS with my 295x2 (crossfire off) which is around 50-55 fps.
Also for those curious about the sniper rifle....

Not when you get to certain areas that have a good amount of action/enemies coming at you. That one part where you first hit the village looking area with the gate? Game actually stopped for a few seconds when I got near the guy with the gun.
