Greetings CDPR and community,
First of all, I wanted to open a thread to ask something but I still can't, so I'm posting here because I didn't find anything similar. Feel free to redirect this to its proper thread and excuse me for any inconvenience.
I'm a great fan of CDPR's since the first Witcher and I've been waiting for Cyberpunk 2077 since the first teaser and never doubted it would be a top game as TW3 was (and still is). I've played CP77 for a couple of hours or so and it looks absolutely amazing. I'm fascinated with it, with every detail, the ambience of Night City, the gunfights, etc. Sadly I'm not able to enjoy it due to a hardware lack, so I'm forced to leave it aside for the moment. To be honest, I wasn't really sure the game would run properly in my PC as it is very old but I'm able to play Doom Eternal with a good and stable framerate, so I thought I could play CP77 as well, as they have similar hardware requisites (actually Doom Eternal's are slightly higher). I tried to play CP77 with low graphics obviously, and even reducing the resolution scale to its minimum (50% from 1080p), but it still doesn't work in a decent framerate. I'm playing with the following:
- Windows 10 64bit
- Intel Core i7 2600 @ 3.40GHz
- 8GB RAM
- NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1050
I've read many concerns of people about performance issues and I'm aware that my hardware is in the verge of the minimum requisites. However, I'd like to know what criteria do you follow to specify the requisites. Doom Eternal, for instance (excuse me for mentioning it always but it's my best point of comparison), specifies that the minimum requisites should let you play in 1080p, 60fps and low graphic settings.
This is not a concern, I don't intend to be rude and I'm aware this kind of games are very tough to be perfectly optimized for every hardware device. This is not a linear game as Doom, nor an almost empty open-world like Death Stranding, but I hoped I'd be able to play at least decently in low settings. You CDPR probably should have set the minimum requisites a bit higher, more realistic or at least specify how the game would run with them. Anyway, I'm looking forward to play in the future with a better PC.
Thanks
