Deus Ex: Mankind Divided PC performance thread
- Thread starter JaseC
- Start date
Haven't really done any tweaking, but just some brief walking around in prague keeps me above 60fps so far (75-85+ in the opening mission) on a 980Ti, i7 4770K @ 4.5Ghz, 16GB RAM (playing with G-Sync).
However, there wasa a reasonable amount of microstutter in prague - unsure what's causing it - hopefully it's a setting I can drop down.

Weirdly enough, the Steam Overlay isn't working for me.

Devs posted an update on community hub, they're looking into mouse acceleration.
Everyones opinion is valid on this stuff. If they feel like that then fine, but when I read it, I know I won't feel that way unless it isn't optional or far too grindy to play. Waiting for a larger sample size will take those reviews into account as well as everyone with an alternate point of view, crazy people, memes / jokes and the nicer folk that think things through. In the end though, that is something I would only use loosely and based on what the current circumstances were to avoid issues like brigading / launch stupidity of "I can't ultra, ergo shit port" when using an ancient processor as one of the reviewers is etc etc. I'd rather focus more in individual well written and reasoned reviews

So what settings are people with GTX 970's going for? Sooo many options!

Looks like I'm getting the same crash location as everyone else. (Prague, Subway entrance) I hate doing the fight before the chopper again.
I'm slowly getting tired of buying pc games day one for this to happen every time.

Holy shit at this game.
Just played some more Titanfall at Wild Hunt just to be sure it wasn't just my rig.
Those are running fine, yet on LOW preset at 1080p I get 21.3 FPS average and 13.5minimum in the bench. On low. Clock and temps are fine, usage is a bit low, but not THAT low.
Tried running in windowed mode and the results are even worse.
Ridiculous. Game launched 4 hours ago and I have yet to make it past the tutorial.

Just because it runs fine on other games, doesn't mean it's necessarily a problem Deus Ex here. It could very well be a problem on your rig. Who knows though.

No idea, worked for me.

Hyperthreading is on. I don't think it's my PC to be honest. I guess I will have to wait for a patch.

Doesn't work for me.
It has to be only for performance reasons. I've toggled that on/off too (in the very short time I got to try it before errands became priority) and it makes a massive difference. Sharpening combined with Temporal AA is a good compromise compared to MSAA.
On a related note, what did the devs do with sharpening? I'm not sure I've seen this tech in a game before and read nothing about it in DX:MD leading up to release. Curious how they got it looking so well without significant compromises like TXAA does on its own.

FPS 55-75, scripted sequences are usually what make it dip below 60
There's a reason it's called sharpening and not disabling blurring. It's post processed and faked. There isn't any more information you're getting out of the image.

Has there been any word yet to fix crashing as soon as it loads up?
What? The Sharpening makes it look blocky and unnatural. The blur actually makes the picture look more coherent imho. Together with 2xmsaa I have yet to spot Jaggies.

And what is even more annoying is how long it takes to get back to that point to see if the newt thing you've done has fixed it. It plops you back to your last save, which has to be in the previous level. So you have the billion logos, the load into the tutorial, the load into the next level then the unskippable walk and talk to get to the crash point.

I had the crash issue too. Turning off subtitles did the trick and the game no longer crashed.
If turning off subtitles isn't helping, then it seems to be completely random and it's gonna be frustrating to repeat that part all the time.

Well I deleted the game, reinstalling now on the SSD in some desperate hope that fixes something, somehow. What a waste of a day. Have to go to work in a couple hours, all the time I wasted waiting and tweaking instead of playing. Bleh.

Next time try using Steam's verify cache feature.
I don't even have subs on
Try spamming esc and back right before that moment, keep doing it till the cutscene happens. Worked for some people.

Yeah this is frustrating (compounded by the fact a bunch of these PC sites didn't pick up on it either)
Aye. Tried Windowed mode, had subs off anyway, tried different settings.
Still crashes. Sigh.

It looks horrendus imo. I can handle some sharpening but not as much as this game applies.
Doom had it too but you could adjust it.

To me the input in this game feels really weird. Not just the mouse/analog stick (tried both) but also the movement. It just feels and looks really stiff.
I have now just gone completely with the Ultra preset, and remain at 55-100fps thus far. The benchmark was at 48 / 64 / 75 (min ave max) but so far the game hasn't even pushed that hard in the city hub yet.
My GTX1060 is performing above 60 on ultra (minus CA, MSAA) thus far in game (not the benchmark as above). If this is the case, I can't imagine a 1080 being held that far back. Not sure what is going on with different impressions from seemingly similar set ups
In the audio menu
Again, the lowest hitch is with me looking at whatever that is. Soft shadowing artifacting there is "nice" as well:
Should this be running at 40-60 on a GTX1080?
I'm definitely going with badly optimized here.

Step 1:
Steam Library, right click on the game, properties, language.
Step 2:
Start the game, change the setting in the main menu.

GTX 980 with slight overclock, 4790k here.
First ran benchmark with GEForce experience settings, got 30 fps min. Went and changed a few settings down, ran again... 30 fps again.
Enabled triple buffering.
Gained 25 FPS?
Only done this once so far but that's pretty weird. Going to try again.

Anyway, performance.

Titan X Pascal
3440x1440 res
Settings:
MSAA Off
Performance has been extremely solid, and the game looks very good.
Have yet to drop below 60fps - played the entire prologue and the opening of Prague
Downsides: Mouse accel, crashing at Prague opening, Steam overlay doesn't work

Same settings with my refresh set to 100hz with a 1080 and 3440x1440 ultra wide monitor.
Running great for me.

We're you using double buffering before? That was probably the issue.
It's not working for me either (Win7, 1080, 6700K)

Well no idea what your settings are, but after a lot of testing I've found some 'relatively' high settings that give me around 60 fps on my 980.
Still not entirely happy with them though.. TAA is great but the sharpening filter is way to aggressive imo.
