So to get 60fps locked at 1080p on a 1080 (OC'ed to 2GHz) and 6700K (OC'ed to 4.5GHz) it's enough to disable CHS and leave everything else on max (except MSAA, of course)?
And what about 1440p? Same as above + set Volumetric lightning to "on" instead of "ultra"?

The first few hours in Prague actually reminded me a bit of Dishonored. Not graphically, just because I was climbing around on roofs and looking down at people I need to avoid so much
Yeah, I use almost the same settings (with sharpening and motion blur off) on my 1080 and am really happy with the results so far.
Graphically, it reminds me of a mix of Dishonored and Half Life 2. Not a bad combination at all, in my book.
Only played for a couple hours yesterday when I got off work. Got to Prague and got to the guy who
Playing on High graphics settings at 1080p
No crashes, a couple of spots where there might have been some stuttering, but probably wouldn't have been noticeable if I hadn't been looking for it.

Yeah, this is really annoying. I think benchmarks would do well to ignore the first second or two as assets are being loaded.

Pretty much in my case. I briefly played on my 16:9 1440p monitor and managed to get a consistent 60fps with near identical specs.
Yes, like a modern version of a mixture of those two. Plus cyberpunk. Really neat.
That's what I use at 1440p more or less. (With sharpness and motion blur disabled, but I doubt they make a noticeable performance difference).

Game runs pretty great at the high preset with tesselation turned on.
One thing to note - Setting textures to anything above "high" gives me a popup warning that my 970 doesn't have enough VRAM. I haven't tested this yet.
Anyone tested very high or ultra textures with a 970?

A colleague at work said that he gets microstuttering (consistent with texture loading) at higher than "high" on a 970, so it seems that warning is well-placed.

Probably close to that. I didn't run the benchmark or check the FPS, but it was definitely above 30 for sure. Looked fast enough to be 60fps most times. I'll check later after work.

One thing I noticed. Having Parallax Occlusion Mapping to On instead of High leads to a very noticeable 'line on the ground' (don't know the technical term) where the detail on the ground changes. It looks like it's around 15ft in front of you. With POM to High it's completely gone.

did the patch break something because i see things floating and i cant actually complete the combat tutorial because it starts in the air and i cant get to it.

1440p / Gsync / High Preset. TAA, Exclusive Fullscreen, Tessellation ON, Sharpening OFF, Chromatic Aberration OFF, Contact Shadows OFF.

i play with vsync completely off (because I have a gsync monitor) and noticed no issues with the feel of the mouse once i turned in game sensitivity down, and that is something that would def. bother me. Just wondering if people who have mouse acceleration issues are running with vsync enabled?
Holy fuck
Yeah I don't get it. With that DPI and sens I'd do like 10 360's with a slight wrist movement.

Running the game on high with tessellation enabled on 1080p and getting a super smooth framerate. Seems to be running like a champ. I may start fiddling with higher settings since my framerate is definitely over 60fps.

my fps is fine its just this horrible ass stutter i have no clue how to fix
That's some really nice scaling. Rare to see games these days which scale > factor 2 just based on settings other than resolution/AA.

Actualy, I just checked real quick. I get a benchmark of Average 42.8, max 55.8, lowest of 12.0 (which I never even noticed in the benchmark at all).
In-game, which many people here say is much better, is mostly a solid 60fps. Drops to 57fps here and there, and when a lot is going on went down to 51fps for a sec. Mostly stays right around 60 though. It runs pretty nice.

Yeah contact hardening appears completely broken for distance world shadows. When I get home later, I think I will turn it off. Losing distance shadows like that is not too great looking in spite of some of the nicer funktions CHS technically should have. I noticed with CHS on I did get better micro shadowing in some instance in comparison to the default with it off (bricks on the side of buldings for example, have better selfshadows). I will make a comparison of what I mean later.
I think that's called LOD transitions? Amirite?
I hate this kind of effect - I'd rather have the lower detail consistently everywhere, than that "line on the ground" bullshit. It's also very common with better quality shadows, you have a "magic bubble" of good shadow around you which is very distractingly cut off.
I got that with Ultra on a 980 Ti. Seems 6GB isn't enough VRAM for ultra.

Dumb question:
I have FXAA forced on the Nvidia control panel but also have TAA ticked.
What's better? Should I disable the FXAA in NCP and just use TAA? I've heard TAA can be quite blurry, but if I have the sharpening filter (which I don't mind) will it make it look ok?
I'll have a fiddle when I get home from work anyway. Just wanted to see what you lot think.

I'm playing on a similar system with a mixture of high and medium settings, getting around 30fps. I can't imagine the consoles are going to be better, I would go for it.

Game is pretty smooth so far on 4770k and Radeon 290X @1080p.
FXAA is awfully blurry by design, get rid of that for sure. Their temporal solution beats it easily, but it only seems to work with sharpening on. When I turned that off for a moment it looked like I also took off my glassesDumb question:

TAA killed aliasing in my game yeah, but I thought I was losing vision with it turnde on and sharpening off.
I hate using postprocess but I had to turn sharpen ON this time around, my eyes were literally hurting.
They still hurt with the aggressive sharpen, but at least I feel I have my vision back.

Anyone else having problems with quick loads? Anytime I do one it just gets stuck on the loading screen forever.

Anyone else having issues with some elements of the HUD not disappearing completely after choosing those options? It's the "hold T to remove whatever" and the aug selection in the lower left corner that won't disappear. Especially the former is distracting.
Yes! It's not just very distracting, it also prevents me from taking screenshots
Yeah it's all the prompts that are connected with tutorials (the ones you have to hold a button to activate). I've just been quick-saving and reloading after having seen the tutorial - Ignoring it the second time it pops up.
Pretty annoying.
Are you pressing space after the bar hits 100% ?

It never hits 100%, the bar gets stuck early on.

Off topic:
I am not a graphics programmer but I am interested so I would like to learn why it's a bad idea? And how specifically bad it is?
I take it that the driver level FXAA will be applied at the end of the pipeline before the image is output to the screen? Am I correct to think that TAA is already a post process, so FXAA on top off it will produce even more blurriness because it cannot detect the edge as well as with TAA off?
So "bad", in this sense, is extra frame loss with extra blurriness?
Because I remember in GTA5, in-game MSAA2x plus driver FXAA at 1440p produced very fine IQ, at least for me.
On topic:
I just remembered seeing the "hold T to remove whatever" after the intro mission in Jensen's apartment before having to stop and go to work. Not looking forward to that at all, damn.

So what was the point of their strike team?
I had that in one area of the tutorial mission but never since then.
Yes.
Well, if a game has an in-game FXAA setting, it might e.g. run that on the samples before the final resolve. Even if not, MSAA2x misses some aliasing completely, so FXAA could still help with that (unlike the image after a good TAA implementation)
