i7 4790k @4.4Ghz
GTX1070 @ 2000mhz core + 9Ghz memory
16GB 1866Mhz DDR3

No matter what settings I choose I can't escape common dips to <30fps when using 3840x2160. 60fps, look to the right framerate drops to 30...

I've settled on these settings:
2560x1440
Texture Quality: Very High
AF: Force On
AA: TAA 16X
Shadow type: Hard and Soft
Shadow resolution: very high
Bloom: Enabled
AO: Enabled
AO Quality: Very high
Motion Blur: Off

These settings result in 60fps with a few dips to mid 50s.

Also one thing that annoys me a bit is that unlike other UWP games I can't drag and drop the game to another display and have it detect that displays resolution. I can drag and drop FM6 Apex from my main display (2560x1080) to my secundary display(3840x2160) and it'll allow me to select 3840x2160, Recore doesn't support that sadly. The max resolution I can choose is the max supported by my main display.

Hmm maybe it's GSYNC that is screwing stuff up for me since this is a UWP game. I'll turn it off. Frame rates shouldn't be this wonky with the hardware I'm using

i don't think GSYNC has to do anything with it, my hardware is also capable of running this with max setting at least on 1080P but for some reason i am getting some frame drop

Are shadow resolutions really low even at "very high" for the rest of you as well?

Also, none of the anti-aliasing options seem to do anything.

OK turn out i am playing mostly in 60 FPS in 4K resolution but i am having weird texture and shadow issue that happen from time to time

Turned off GSYNC and now I'm getting 144fps @ 1440p maxed out without any weird ass drops. Also seemed to have a little trouble with ULMB activated.

4K maxed is also stable at around 110-120fps without drops and the same with 5K at around 60-70fps in the overworld and 70-80 in dungeons. This is awesome.

Very strange...

Surface Book i5/dGPU

Tweaks:
"High Performance" CPU (hack)
dGPU Core Clock +135MHz
dGPU Memory Clock +700MHz

Settings:
Everything Max
1600x1066 (3:2)

Runs at 30fps (lock)

~~

For some reason, even if I lower to 1200x800 and turn all the settings to their lowest, I can only get about 14fps gain (44fps).

I don't understand... I really think something is wrong. Turning the settings off should make it much better. I literally cannot do anything to get close to 60 and yet I can keep increasing the settings and stay at 30. Oh well. 30 will do, I guess.

The same thing is happening to me. There is some wonky stuff going on with the graphics settings.

I'm not sure what kind of AA is being forced on, but I don't like it. It might be what this Book is struggling to deal with. In the meantime I'm happy to play it on here as opposed to Xbone. But yeah, I hope this is addressed/fixed.

That happens when the bottleneck isn't the GPU.

After finally fixing the issues I decided to run some benchmarks in both the overworked and dungeon and during combat with max settings.

1440p @ 144 fps (capped)
4K DSR @ 121 fps
5K DSR @ 75 fps

What did you fix? Oh nvm.

Yeah I feel like AA settings don't do anything and something is forced. Hmm

Yeah it is weird. The originaal pauses I had were longer before I updated my HDD (FRom a 5400RPM, to a 7200RPM) That has helped shorten the pauses but they are still there,

Cheers Rayge! Disabling G-Sync helped a ton.

Edit: Weird, re-enabled G-sync and it is fine still?

Turned G-Sync back on and my frame rate at 1440p went from 144fps to around 80/90 in the same static room. Yeah, this game doesn't like GSYNC if you're running a super high end rig. I'm sure people incapable of reaching over 100fps won't see this issue pop up for them when using GSYNC.

No big deal. I'll just keep it off.

At the same time I'm still curios as to why when I set the game to 4K the fps shoots back up into the 110~120s

Is it possible to add ReCore to the GeForce Experience program? Or, is it depended on the program itself to support the game?

ReCore will unexpectedly drop to 30 FPS from a locked 60 while I'm playing, especially if I'm leaving a menu. At first I thought it was only happening in the outside, but I've gotten it to happen inside the crawler (after I did some upgrading). Pointing the camera at a wall for a bit allows to go back up to 60 and stay there so I'm pretty sure it isn't a case of my computer not being able to handle it.

Something strange is also going on, sometimes particles get "stuck" on the screen and walking through sand leaves an after image that sticks around. I couldn't find anyone having this problem.

Decided to run with these settings for my Surface Book :S

Everything Maxed Out (since performance is literally the same)
Locked 30
1368x912 (900p equivalent)

wVxjr0g.jpg


~~

Basically, I cannot turn off the AA, and the setting is making no difference. I have no idea what's going but I'm sure there's some bullshit effect going on that's stopping me from hitting 60. I also feel like AO etc. is always secretly running even if you turn it off.

The game looks blurry and I can't tell the difference between 1368x912 to 1800x1200 like I can in other games.

We really need a fix for this. But rn, it's like playing the Xbone but with SSD attached.

UWP am cry

you're not going to hit 60 on a surface book. it's a ULV slow dual core cpu and a modified 940m gpu. It's very weak. (assuming you have the dGPU model)

This is not exactly my concern. I concern is hitting 30-45 at 1800x1200 and having no performance increase by turning all the settings off and lowering the resolution to like 1200x800.

More so, I want to turn off the AA...

side note: the i5 in this machine is dope, and the dGPU performs like a 950m just with 1GB VRAM ~

probably cpu limited if dropping settings and resolution isn't helping you.

Ok guess i had enough
Can't believe that i am having problems running this game at fill strength on even 1080p with my PC

If anyone know a fix for the performance of this game please let me know

Something is very wrong here. That's pretty much the same as my PC (I have a 6700K tho), and I'm getting perfectly smooth performance whilst downsampling from 4K. When you say performance issues, what framerates are you targeting. I have it locked to 60fps, so I'm not sure if you're playing on a 144hz monitor and attempting significantly higher than that?

Targetting 60fbs
I'll try resetting my windows and see if it fixes the problem

just small question ... can it be played offline ??? I read that encrypted appx requires online to be able to play and seen reports of game not working offline https://www.reddit.com/r/recore/comments/52iyku/pc_specs_and_how_well_it_runs/d7lcknt
Click to expand...

I was not able to play offline. The game will start, and you will get as far as the menu, but as soon as it tries to sync your save and can't find a connection, the game immediately closes. It seems like a bug to me given how it happens.

This and other Windows 10 Xbox games need to be launched with an online connection before playing on an offline connection. An offline connection only lasts for 24 hours. I think Microsoft Studios games are the only titles that do this, exception of Minecraft I believe.

Its exactly like the 24 hour check-in DRM the Xbox One was gonna utilise back in 2013. In fact it probably is.

Unless your on the latest Windows 10 Insider build; which is 14931. Then it's a bug caused by this Windows build.

Weird. They said october 5th.

Its this btw.

Hello Far Eden Explorers!



We’ve continued to get great feedback as you play ReCore, and we have more good news to share. On October 5th, we’ll be releasing a significant update to ReCore for Xbox One, Xbox One S, and Windows 10.



In this update, you will experience decreased loading times, see audio and visual improvements, and notice improvements to issues you may have experienced with waypoints, achievement tracking, collision locations, checkpoints and respawn points."

Large update just went live. No idea what the fixes are.
Click to expand...

I actually wonder if 8,7GB is the correct size of the update or is it a bug and Windows 10 re downloads a whole game. Their blog post http://www.recoregame.com/oct-5th-recore-update/ says that latest Win10 update should prevent such a bug. Did anyone have a different (smaller) update or is everyone forced to download 8,7GB? Hopefully it's not a general bug - I don't care about ReCore anymore, but I don't want to re-download 40GB for upcoming FH3 patch if the bug really exists.

I started the update and it also says 8.7GB ... IIRC I have the WIN10 update installed that Major Nelson mentioned some time ago.

Just wanted to come in here and say that disabling G-Sync worked for me at 1440p. I was getting 20-25 FPS. Now I'm maxing out again. I know there will be a lot of new players with the sale, so hopefully this helps. :)

I was looking at picking this up due to the sale, and was wondering if they fixed the Gsync issue :/ If you play in borderless window mode (which should disable it) does that also work - without having to totally disable it via Nvidia control panel? Or even using Nvidia inspector, to adjust the profile?

At 1920 x 1080 everything is maxed and it runs at 60 without a hitch. I turned off motion blur though. It looked weird.
