Does anyone else find it silly we're talking about dropping games to Medium or Low, WHILE using upscaling AND dynamic res on fairly competent hardware and still not able to achieve a solid 60 FPS? Meanwhile that same hardware could run Red Dead Redemption 2 at 1440p Ultra and having it look AMAZING. Even something like a 3070 can get 120 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p Ultra settings and it looks gorgeous yet we're mean't to believe Starfield is such a visual and technical upgrade that a 3070 can't even hope to achieve anywhere near 60 FPS at 1080p. 🧐

Criticism of how the game runs is in the rest of the PC review. This part is just optimized settings and for that it's irrelevant how the game runs, what matters is that the people who want to play the game can inform themselves on how to get better FPS for minimal visual fidelity loss.

It's not that simple, there is typically a lot more going on in a Bethesda game behind the scenes vs RDR2/Cyberpunk 2077, especially when it comes to NPC AI. RDR2 will fail the mission if you stray off the path, Bethesda games don't typically do this as you can compete part missions and then come back to them hours later after doing side missions/random quests.

Yes, let's compare Cyberpunk to Starfield. In other news, my 1996 Compaq used to play Solitaire just fine BUT can't run RDR2. This means Solitaire is the better optimised software.

Depends, I also find it silly how we have 60 series cards masquerading as 70s cards that go for 80s series prices. The whole situation has been a mess for a while, from under performing hardware to poorly optimised games, there is stagnation in the GPU industry and no incentive to make things right cause fuck gamers, ai brings in the big money and we get left in the mercy and whim of big corpos

I believe the Crowd Density affects the spawning rate of NPCs - it doesn't remove existing ones. Tim from Hardware Unboxed at least was able to find (in their optimization guide) a difference between the settings, provided you moved to a new area after changing it. The identical footage in this video from the different Crowd Density settings lead me to believe each was shot immediately after reloading a save while already within the city. I suppose Starfield preserves even NPC state - at least in the current location - in its saves.

1:04 HOW are you even getting ~25 FPS there with a 3090 with max clocks and 99% GPU usage I am getting like ~30 FPS using the exact same settings(4k, 67% res and max settings) - in some areas like dense forests even dipping to ~27 FPS 3090 is supposed to be ~82% faster(so almost twice as fast) according to UserBenchmark all in all solid analysis but the text at times seemed a bit rushed(some typos like comparing High to High when I assume the second High should be Ultra) PS solid thumbnail, really sums up what a disappointment the game has been in some areas

@ionrage Considering nVidia has 85% market share and a 6800 XT outperforms a 3080 by 30% to 40% in this game when the 3080 usually performs the same to a 6800 XT (In rasterization), it's actually better to target nVidia users. They make up the majority of gamers and in this case the nVidia GPUs are underperforming so they would need the optimized settings more than AMD users. Also performance updates can target certain cards, if Bethesda makes updates that increase performance on nVidia hardware it doesn't mean AMD cards will perform better too.
@ionrage

@@03chrisv that's not how the PC market has ever worked, devs don't optimize based on this, they view the PC segment as a whole. Have you ever seen cod benchmarks, if so AMD has a similar lead to starfield, it's sure to Nvidia lacking the silicon to process what the game throws at it compared to AMD. Id this is the similar thing, Nvidia will always be behind AMD for this game. Any dev optimisation will just improve both vendors performance.
@03chrisv
@03chrisv Жыл бұрын
@ionrage I've been building gaming PCs since 2003 so I'm not new to the PC space, devs have optimized for specific cards before. I'm not saying it's common but it has happened when performance disparity has been very lopsided. CoD performs better on AMD mainly due to Infinity Cache and its scheduler that helps alleviate some CPU bottlenecks since CoD is quite CPU hungry. nVidia doesn't really have a 1 to 1 equivalent to this so the CoD devs can't really optimize for nVidia anymore unless they rewrite their game engine. Starfield on the otherhand is built on an over decade old engine (the Creation Engine) which has powered other games. The disparity between AMD and nVidia has never been so huge in AMD's favor before in past creation engine games so obviously the dev team spent more time optimizing for AMD graphics cards this time around since it's an AMD sponsored game. I suspect more optimizations for nVidia hardware will take place in the future since obligations to tailor the game to AMD no longer apply, even Digital Foundry mentioned this.

You know why tere are virtual boxes and no seemles transitions? why game restricts itself to 8gb Vram usage on every GPU and rely on streaming assets? Why those assets then had to be chopped ins small bits and pieces? The answer is trivial - Series S garbage tier streaming machine. Modders already proven that planets can be accessed "quadrant by quadrant" and that you can transition from one "box" to another and it can load. There is no world simulation, no AI, its CP2077 lvl joke - just increadibly poor 6-7 core restricted CPU utilisation to fit console hardware. What about PC? Alex already did the testing - Todd "Bugthesda - because f* PC gamers" & "U guys have no moar GPUs?" Howard should resign, followed by Phil "Next year will be groundbreaking for Xbox" Spencer. I just played GOW Ragnarok - 75-90 FPS on beutiful VRR performance mode, no bugs, no glitches, no issues through 98hrs of platinum rush, a perfect execution of AAA flagship in house game. And what, this garbage tier unopitmised piece of dated junk, roughly a reskin of Fallout 4, with level of technical execution adequate to small indie studio they try to sell as best since sliced bread next gen AAA blockbuster? It's a joke. Compared to Sony AAA, the crap that MS releases one after another is just a total remarkable disgrace, a spit in the face of gamers. This is what Game Pass owners got from $7Billion investment? Red Fail and Starfail? They should rename themselves as Xbox Fail Studios.

The poor performance (50fps on a 4090 with FSR2.0 enabled) is down to CPU restrictions, which in turn is down to the horribly dated Ceeation engine. Yea, put a '2' after Creation Engine if you like but it doesn't change the fact it's code is rooted in a 20 year old engine and trying to make AAA games with such an engine is bound to have issues. It's like trying to create a modern game with the original Unreal engine, it's designed for modern system and would give severely disspointing and ugly results, as does Creation Engine 2, to a lesser extent.

I have never seen a community more toxic than the Howard worshippers. That fanbase puts Howard on the highest pedistool when it was shown time and time again that none of his games were mindblowing or revolutionary in any way shape or form. In fact they were held back by an engine that simply can't keep up with the times but here you have all these Howard worshippers acting like he is the "🐐"
