That was dlss on...
Sure, but you said he had to play at 30 fps with DLSS on.

Ok so my specs are as follows. i7 8700k, 32gbr ram, and the 1080ti playing at 3440x1440 full screen.
Game loads up and sets default graphics setting of Ultra. There's an nvidia driver available but I haven't installed it yet. I immediately go and turn off motion blur and film grain. Hate those two settings.
I started as Nomad so you start out in the desert. Initially, the first thing I notice is the game is beautiful graphics wise. It does seem a bit blurry on the sides and off in the distance but the graphics are really something.
But I'm very sad..max fps 35-40 and this is in the desert lol. Hovers in the 30's. I started to get nauseous and got a headache. The FOV is at 80 so I'm not sure if that is what is attributing to my headache.
Later there's an action scene and I'm down to 28 fps fluctuating up to the low 20's to mid 30's. Changing the graphics preset to High doesn't do much, maybe gets an additional 5 fps so instead of 30-38 fps non action scenes, I'm getting 40-45.
I think I need to wait for a hardware unboxed optimized settings video or maybe gamers nexus will do one. I cant really play it like this, making me dizzy lol.
Want to wait to see how it runs on consoles and I may just buy it for ps5 or the series X if performance there is better.
Who knows when I'll be able to update my rig at this time. Initial impressions, looks awesome, seems to be really immersive and interesting story wise, but you need a hell of a rig to play it seems like.
One annoyance in the controls for KB/M. For certain functions, like tagging enemies, the default is press "mouse" ...it just shows an image of the mouse. no arrow or highlight specifying buttons. not even the center button. It's just "mouse." hovering over your targets using the mouse while scanning, which actually looks like it is tagging them as it paints them red, doesn't work. I had to load my Logitech software to start assigning buttons--which I was waiting to do until I get used to how I want to play skill buttons--and assigned a key to the center mouse button--it loaded on a previous game setting, so it was assigned to "G" when I pressed the center mouse button to map it. G doesn't appear to be assigned to anything in the game, so I went with that. And then it worked when pressing the center mouse button/G. ...I don't get it though, not sure why "mouse" is a default button to press for this function, lol.
1080p will look weird on this ultrawide monitor. It might crop off the sides and since I'm sitting about 20 inches away from it, I'm sure it won't look as crisp.Thanks man ... 1080p might do it for you? I would have to get 2080 hardware cause 3080 or 6800 is nowhere around yet .. and that aint happening.
I've been waiting until January to see if they announce a 3080ti. Still doesn't mean we will be able to get one. I may just grab it on either ps5 or series x once some technical reviews come out to show the performance in each. I know both new consoles have performance and quality mode. I'd like to use quality mode as that will look best on the 4k tv.Damn. Glad I didn’t buy. I’ll sit on this game until probably 3080ti or something lol cause I sure won’t find a 3080 anywhere. Maybe series x or ps5 will have decent performance without playing with graphics settings for hours to figure out what works. I kind of expect a poor showing on consoles though.

I am wondering if this game is indeed optimized for 30 fps becuause there were several options with an fps limit of 30 set by default in the settings. I changed mine to allow up to 120 as that is what my monitor supports, just to see if that setting may have caused any issues but it didn't do anything.
Even dropping everything to high I didn't notice an fps increase. Tonight I will try the new Nvidia drivers although I'm convinced those are for people with the newer cards.
There's folks on reddit saying they can get 60fps with my card, different processors, but I'm not sure how.
Cpu usage was at 26% and gpu was at 98%. Vram usage between 4-6gb. Sad because I was looking to get immersed into this title but I don't think I can play it in the current state.

The 1080ti can't run ray tracing or dlss either and if you can play at 4k with stable fps on the series x or ps5 then that's better than what my pc is getting.Neither has any next gen enhancements though. You are playing the backwards compatible version.

Yea but neither can the 1080ti run dlss or ray tracing so I'd rather play at 4k on the series x rather than sub 30 fps on 1440p. Hopefully some optimized settings video will come out for pc.You'll be playing the PS4 or XBox One versions through BC if you do though. No current gen console versions are going to be out for a while.

Old gen consoles apparently run like garbage. Ps5 and series X seem to be alright. Ps5 has performance mode that dips the resolution to sustain 60fps. Series X has quality mode where it will use native 4k and maintain 30fps.Are the console ports any good? I remember hearing the XBox port was supposed to be the big reason for the delay from summer to November (and then December).
Roh roh. How many keys are like this? I play left handed and the left side of the keyboard is dead to me.The fact that they hard coded keys like F and you can't remap them is driving me nut! Specially since I don't use WASD and use arrow keys for movement.

It just works better with our Dvorak keyboards.you lefties always causing problems with your bronze-aged preference for keyboard controls.

From the tutorial you just have to block at exactly the right time. It's not easy and takes practice to do.How the heck to you counter the enemy hack attempts? Saw it come up on the screen like once but couldn't find it in the database or whatever afterward. Getting overheated became instantly frustrating mid combat...
Game is a LOT to process haha; even as a "techie" person I'm finding all of the lingo and bar speak to be kind of annoying lol
