The whole Windows push seems a bit rushed, look at the glaring issues, I'm still sticking with my thought that is ms was in Sonys shoes dominating with Xbox one we wouldn't be seeing this whole sharing games across platforms it feels like a reaction to losing in the console space and pressure from above in ms to push windows with games.

I bet this game's going to run really well on my 2GB 670GTX.
Shame to see the string of great Remedy PC games broken. I wonder if they literally only started working on the port after Microsoft announced it.

Well that's that guys. Pack it up, we're done here.
Now we wait for a response and patches.

Older drivers work fine, the issue started since driver version 641.43 and has been there in every driver release since.Certainly that's solely the drivers fault

Well, there it is.
Brute forcing with TitanX. It's not that smooth either.
His other comment says having to alt+f4 to quit the game..... Why do I have a feeling we have people waking up and just reposting all the stuff from last night? These still don't read like they are even playing the game. At this point we can only rely on gaffers as everything is skewed now on Twitter
Heh, same here. Had there been pre-load, I would've probably bought the game a couple of days ago without thinking much.
Kinda glad we were forced to wait, now I'll definitely wait a couple of extra days at least.

Still need more reports, but almost all hope is lost.
If he is streaming on the same PC and if the game runs as bad as people say then he should not be getting even that level of performance though.

Wait for build!
He literally had some of the best HW available on the market. He brute forced the living shit out of it.
Ah I see. Assumed it was a persisting issue ever since.
Considering he works at PC Gamer, I assume they have received the review codes at last.
even if you brute force, bad optimization would still lead to bad framepacing etc. ?
edit: hopefully it's a driver thing...

Yep it was the same thing with Arkham Knight. Those of us who were fortunate enough to have 980ti's or Titans at the time could just about get through the game but everyone else was SOL.
Even with a 980ti I still wasn't satisfied so got a refund and then later rebought the game on the PS4 for next to nothing on Amazon due to a price glitch.
Does the Windows store have a refund system?

"Xbox one is better than Titan X" now at $299.

That didn't work for stuff like Batman which was a mess regardless of setup especially if you went above 30. I got moderate stuttering on my 980ti and I was one of the "lucky" people for whom the game ran reasonably well - others on similar hardware reported much worse problems.
Ok so there've been three people so far that are saying it has serious performance issues and one guy with top of the line HW streaming the game and still having texture loading and frame pacing problems. How many different people need to say the game runs poorly for you to think it's an acceptable conclusion exactly? It's not like the Win 10 store has a fantastic track record at this point so I'm failing to see why the wise course of action here is to give them the benefit of the doubt. They've proven multiple times they deserve no benefit of the doubt in fact they deserve utmost skepticism.
Even with the steady 60fps he had texture loading problems and frame pacing issues (showed up as skips when moving the camera despite the framerate staying at 60)

Which is why it had frame pacing issues and texture loading issues in the stream
Yeah, always have your RAM in pairs. You can still mix-match though, myself I'm running 2x2gB + 2x4gB for a total of 12gB, running dualchannel mode without issues.

Apparently it's fucked. So if this was your sole reason to upgrade to WIN10, don't.

Okok, I won't I guess.
Didn't we receive info that no review stuff got sent out for quantum break on PC early? Meaning.....they would be sent out today or that they never even sent out review codes

No they're not. All available 364 drivers are rock solid and have no stability issues whatsoever. I'm using .72 since their release and didn't run into any issues at all.
This is the only explanation there can be considering that the game is limited to UWP and WinStore.
So let's say if there is a driver issue and the game would run better on AMD hardware, we blame UWP?
Not saying that's the case but it's not that easy, no?
Considering that ominous one dude who was streaming the PC version, I assume they sent out codes before the launch in a few hours, yeah. Kinda curious as to why though, some people might have jumped the gun and bought it, now there is negative impressions going all around.

Why did they decide to sent early copies to streamers but not to reviewers?

Yeah, that myth is really ridiculous, drivers works like a charm.
Not for everyone. Let's not dismiss the legitimate issues some people are having with them just because they happen to work as they should on some machines.

I encountered solid color freezes and constant driver crashes on both .51 and .72, lots of users on both gaf and nvidia official forums reported same issues too.

I knew there was a logical explaination for all of this.
It's all just one big Alan Wake reference.
The Titan X is an absolute monster. I didn't realize this was news.

It should do at 720p and 30fps though.
