Graphical settings comparisons:

I'm getting awful performance on an i7 2600K, 8GB RAM and a GTX 970. Can't seem to hit 60fps, outside of a small room, on any setting at any resolution.

Settings go from Low to Very High. Framerate cap has a 30, 60 or off option.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Oh dear :/ hope we get some more positive reports soon.

 

[Nzyme32]

Quite curious on this. Unfortunately I can't buy it for a fair while. All my spare money has just been thrown at Stellaris

 

[Harlock]

I imagine the first mod will be about the walking speed.

 

[NeoRaider]

Sounds so bad. :/
I guess it's a bad port.

 

[RipperGrim]

Recommended specs only reach 60fps on medium? Not a good sign.

Guess I'm not buying this one. Damn, I was excited to play it.

 

[Afro]

Those advanced video setting descriptions lol

 

[Popsickles]

Do we really need to hit 60 fps in this game. I'm sure the ps4 version ran at like 20 fps sometimes and it never made it unplayable. The graphics are very good in this

Do we need to? I guess not. Should we be able to? Absolutely.

all the game's menus are like this

 

[GavinUK86]

The motion blur is so nauseating. What sorta performance is everyone else getting?

 

[Puppen]

980 oc'd, 6700k 4.6, 32 gb ram running 30-40fps all settings maxed, turning it to all high gives me around 60.

Any way to change the FOV? Please tell me yes.

 

[Granjinha]

At least they are being upfront and trying to fix things. Shame about the performance.

 

[Afro]

Any 980 Ti users?

 

[GhostTrick]

Well the game ran terribly on PS4.
So, I guess its more related to the game than the port itself.

 

[icecold1983]

I suspect poor performance will again be on the nvidia side

It didn't run terribly.

Why? It's a DX11 renderer.

 

[texhnolyze]

Am I crazy or is there barely any difference between those low and very high screenshots?
The only noticeable differences for me are the anti-aliasing and foliage, and maybe AO.

 

[icecold1983]

Its cryengine. Modern versions of cryengine perform poorly on nvidia. See ryse for example. I dont understand your dx11 comment either

 

[ArjanN]

Game runs fine for me so far.

all the game's menus are like this

Yeah, the menus all are all done in an in-universe safety manual type style.

 

[Peotical Injection]

It didn't run terribly.

Having platinumed the game recently, its pretty bad.

 

[Corpekata]

It didn't run terribly.

The game frequently hit in the low 20s during a lot of story moments on PS4.

Ryse runs fine on Nvidia cards.

 

[Lime]

It's a Unity game, right?

if thats fine, sure

 

[Ludens]

Not so fine. I played it on a 970, in earlier locations the game is good, when you reach the forest the fps is horrible. Not a solid performance at all.

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

Hey look, I'm in the OT~

My poor 660 GTX was not ready for the demands Rapture placed on it. I figured I could manage a steady framerate with some settings decreased, but I didn't anticipate that it would be a stuttery, unresponsive mess even with everything turned to low. I tried a garden variety of config tweaks, none of which Rapture seemed to even acknowledge. I even attempted to mod the movement speed, which has a CVAR right in the user.cfg, but it still refused to make any changes.

I was able to improve the frame stability and eek out some performance on my rig by running Rapture through Borderless Gaming. I completed the game with a few crashes popping up, but I'm not sure if it's Rapture or Borderless Gaming's fault there. Gorgeous game, but it does feel like it's being too harsh on systems. With any luck, they'll be able to drop a few more advanced tweaks into the game, stylized panic-manual entries and all.

 

[Fennec]

Oh yes it did. Sub 30 fps, aliasing...it was bad.

Sorry, wasn't really thinking of Cryengine performance problems. With Rise of the Tomb Raider, Hitman, and Quantum Break having a performance benefit for AMD in DX12, I thought you were making a DX12 comment.

amd generally outperforms nvidia in dx11 lately, dx12 just widens the gap

What's your RAM frequency? My 970 drops below 60fps even when according to afterburner my GPU utilization is nowhere near 100%. CPU core utilization in that same scene: 20/20/80/20%.

I suspect another Fallout 4 / Ryse situation where RAM speed is the main bottleneck.

No they're not.

Your holy crusade against NV as is your general tendency to overgeneralize on a limited set of data is really tiresome.

so you think an alpha is a more reliable data point than a finished game? werent you recently saying the exact opposite when people were using the doom alpha against nvidia?

 

[luca_29_bg]

a mod to walk faster ?

 

[Jack John]

I was really looking forward to this-- it has some beautiful art direction. Unfortunately, I'm getting such terrible performance on a Titan X. The very first vantage point looking out after the title and I'm in the 40 fps range. It does goes over 60 when I turn around, but the game does not feel smooth.

 

[Soyongdori]

You're right. It ran like garbage.

There is a run button that exists

 

[blastprocessor]

Given this is a PC engine this is a surprise.

 

[luca_29_bg]

don't do nothing, basically ahahahahahahahaha XD

CryEngine.

Hah, of course not, and we should wait for a release version to judge the performance of _this particular game_.

This is just a counter illustration to your thesis on how late CryEngine run worse on NV GPUs based on an old console port of Ryse - a PC exclusive Wolcen which is basically the latest CryEngine game we have at the moment doesn't support this allegation.

What this does show is that you can't use performance results of some game on the same engine as another one to predict where this another game will end up. It also calls for at least a couple of performance comparisons being made in Rapture specifically before starting the talk on how the game may run badly on NV h/w.

 

[SunBroDave]

It didn't run terribly.

It did, which is why I stopped playing. I was hoping the PC version would be a good reason to finally give it another shot but sadly it seems that performance here also leaves a lot to be desired.

 

[Joey Ravn]

Just to chime in, I'm running a 970 and an i5 2500K (OC'd to 4.2 GHz) and the game kinda keeps around 60 FPS on Medium settings.

I refuse to play at 30 FPS. It looks like ass.

 

[dgrdsv]

Everybodys Gone to the Rapture тест GPU

No SLI/CF, rather taxing as most cards can't reach 60 in 1080p but otherwise seems pretty normal.

 

[Jackpot]

I had frequent crashes until I updated my drivers. Still chugs.

some wins for nvidia, surprisingly. time will tell if amd perf changes in a new driver/patch.

Most indie games on 3rd party engines work fine on NV and this doesn't change with drivers as it's not a driver issue, it's an engine optimization issue.

The game really needs this.
