Imbeciles, I tell you.
I started getting this just before the 2nd boss.
The only thing I changed before this happened was:
NVIDIA CONTROL PANEL -> CONFIGURE SURROUND,PHYSX -> PHYSX SETTINGS:
- I set it from GPU to CPU (as per a fix suggested to solve my random crashing, which it did solve my random crashing)
Also, I did set my Texture Settings to VERY HIGH.
SETUP:
EVGA 780 3GB Geforce
i7-4790K
16GB RAM
WIN 8.1

It is one thing putting this effect in but another to not give players the option of switching it off. It is bewildering why these sorts of effects are forced upon us.
In some games it kinda improves the look of it(Alien Isolation, Crysis 3) but in this game seems that its set on extreme.
I would REALLY like to be able to get this game to boot at least once, and I've failed so far.
I've tried disabling my second monitor (my TV where I normally play) and rebooting my system. So far, I can't even get it to boot at all. It just crashes every time whether in STeam BPM or regular mode.

Any ideas?

Wow if true then this is rather fucked up. I get it they try to defend their product but at the expense of their paying customer? Doesnt the same shit happen with securom or whatever? Also they can be accused with false advertising because machines that are much better than the recommended settings are having problem running the game properly.

16GB DDR4 2666MHz
SLI Titans
Running max settings @4K, the games uses 5.8GB system ram and 6.1GB VRAM. Getting between 35-50 fps. New video cards can't come soon enough.
Edit: I forgot to mention G-sync works making the game pretty smooth even with my variable fps.
Fucking disgusting. Are there any tips on disabling the chromatic aberration?
Much better after that patch, 60+FPS on VHQ

Interesting. I have sli 980s, and and have been playing at 4k with Max settings. So far the average fps is 40-50, and runs quite smoothly.

Shut off post processing, game looks 100x better with that shit off.
Damn that doesn't sound good. Is there a way to disable CA separately while keeping the other post processing effects ala Far Cry 3?
PhysX only runs on the CPU when you enable it with an AMD card. You would just have to make sure to have an OC'd i5 or higher or you're better off with it disabled.

Wait you mean that's not some 3d vision going on there?
Hmm, cpu performance doesn't really seem to be a problem with this game so i kinda doubt this.

So with the patch and the turbulence toggle I'm actually able to play without crashes now. (at least my last session was a lot longer than any session that has crashed). I tried PhysX to CPU, tried changing the ini to disable it and none of that worked but the in game toggle seems to have.
A 780 beating the 290x and 295x2 (@1080p)? Wow... That was unexpected, especially after Ryse.
So the game is not properly optimized for AMD cards right? I'm assuming that's the case here.
And wow at that 270 getting 31-37 FPS VHQ at 1080p. Console quality right there! Makes me very happy to have bought a Sapphire 270 for $70!
I wish....my 295x2 is sad as fuck. At least it's still playable

Hopefully that comes as an option in the next patch. It's just ugly and makes the game look bad and right now you have to either have that and the other effects or lose them all and that's not really a nice trade off.
I only got a chance to check out the first room/area a little last night, since I was mostly playing with graphic settings. With everything set to highest quality at 1080p, I was averaging between 45-60fps. Not sure if that is normal for my setup or not...

I cant see any difference with turbulence on and off honestly. Neither am i noticing any performance increases. Just 30-35 frames per second with drops to 25 
so with the PhysX to cPU thing from this morning im not getting crashes
what I am getting (I think I was getting before also but i notice it mroe now) is what I can only describe as a "burn in" effect, like with old plasmas if you left a static image too long, Ill get a red glare if I go to a checkpoint and it wont go away
when I turn off post processing it disapears, anyone gets that?
edit: also going to turn off that nvidia shit in the options and turn physx back to my second gpu to see if the crashes are gone

Nah I didn't get that before I turned off post processing. I think you should turn off post processing anyway though. I honestly think it makes the game look worse, lol.
aparently you lose effects like smoke and shit tho?
I don't think you lose it entirely, but the effect isn't as pronounced.
I'd say it's a small price to pay to get rid of the awful chromatic aberration though. The game looks miles better without it.
Edit: Figured out what was causing my performance issue. After swapping physx to CPU, the GPU apparently didn't think the game was stressing it enough to it started down clocking. Preferring maximum performance did the trick.

Turbulence is noticeable on stuff like fog and sparks. It seems like that's where it's implemented. It's not gameplay essential, but it sure is really pretty.
ok, switched physx back to gpu, and im not getting crashes, so either the patch did something, or turning off that new nvidia thing did
I also turned off post processing and it does look better indeed

i keep getting crashes right after choose character and when the game start to load
I receive not enough memory error
My config is i7 3770 r9 290x and 8gb of ram
i try to disable physx, install direct x from game folder, verify the cache, start game as admin but nothing solve the problem
Someone know what can i do?

I wasn't having crashing issue but certainly wasn't getting the performance I expected out of my 780 SLI rig. Changed the physx to CPU and got a massive performance boost right away.
I think the game is a real looker when it's cranked, hopefully the patch helps the rest of you out as it's damn good fun so far!

What is the deal with AF not remembering the setting I set it to? It goes up to 16x in the in game options, yet mine keeps defaulting back down to 4x.
That's what I see in my game as well and think it's ugly as fuck. How is an image that looked like someone forgot to adjust the focus lens supposed to be "good"? Tastes are subjective, but I can't imagine anyone actually thinks that looks good.
It's the very first thing that I noticed as soon as I started playing. It's hideous.

That screenshot made my eyes tear up, CA sucks

Same thing happened for me after using the Geforce experience optimizer thing. I can't get it to stick at 16x. Every other setting works.

I don't even have that installed for reasons precisely relating to that. So it's something else on my end.
same, maybe its because I turned off post processing?

It's not that, because I have the same problem and I didn't turn off post processing.
Weird thing is that before the patch I was able to play without issues and now I can't play because I get awful stutter.
Sounds horrible. Will get it on PS4 then. A shame since it's much cheaper and would run better on my PC, but if that version crashes as often as is implied in this thread, there's really no choice. Thanks for the warning.
