No hate. I was fine with 30 FPS for quite some time when I played on console. But it's a matter of your brain adapting to something new, and having a hard time going back to the old.

Definitely nothing wrong with console players liking/being OK with it. Or even PC players who just don't care.

For sure, it is all a matter of subjective taste and acclimation. I personally would prefer a solid 30 fps than one that dances between 60 and 40. If both are generally stable, I want and love 60 frames now, but a year ago I thought it seemed too fluid--bordering on unnatural.

It may depend on the game, for some reason in TW3 45 fps felt like 15 to me even with vsync turned off.

Yeah you gotta cross between the two frequently or it gets weird.


Although the idea of never going back is exactly WHY 30 feels weird.

If your monitor is 60hz, 45 will feel off because its refreshing off cycle at times. Id rsther go 30 fps there.

That is why I mentioned turning off vsync, TW3 felt stuttery even with that, but not other games like Dying Light (obviously it still had tearing). It was long ago though with the 1.0x versions, I have upgraded the hardware since then, and maybe the patches improved it as well.

Yep, you're right. I've been forced to switch between the two more frequently the past week or so because I started playing PS4 exclusives, so I'm sure I'll get used to it. Plus, it makes me appreciate the PC more, so that's a plus.

Yeah, so I actually struggled with the Witcher 3 for quite some time. I upgraded my entire system in the hopes that it would improve the stuttering on TW3 and other games, and it did - for the other games. TW3 still constantly stuttered. I tried EVERYTHING.

I tried changing CPU priority (I have an 8700K), I tried wiping and reinstalling my drivers, I tried tweaking my monitor settings, and numerous other things I'm not going to get into here.

Turns out it was Nvidia's crappy drivers the entire time. I rolled back to something in the 380 range and the problem was solved. I stayed with those drivers until new games starting crashing my system, then updated again, and now everything is fine (in new games and TW3).

So, glad it's fixed now, but for something like 10-20 driver updates, TW3 stuttered for reasons I will never understand. Even with G-SYNC, even with everything configured properly and high-end hardware. Sigh. Just goes to show, no matter how much you invest in your hardware, nothing matters if a company messes the drivers up.

There is still a chance for it to be released sooner than that *fingers crossed*, but those job postings are a reasonable enough basis to assume it is further out. I don't know you so you might be jaded/cynical, but I think on this point you are just being pragmatic.

I really hope your right! :) Getting a game similar in quality to W3:WH this year, would be fantastic.

Lots of bad assumptions here. The demo used a 1080ti but, sources say it was running in 4K and locked at 30hz, we can't be sure what frame rate is actually achieveable.

SPECULATION:
-Engine will undergo optimisation
-2160p at 60hz on next gen cards
-2160p at 30hz on next gen consoles
-1440p at 60hz with GTX 1080ti
-1080p at 60hz with GTX 1080
-1080p at 60hz at reduced quality with GTX 1070/1060
-1080p at 30hz at reduced quality on PS4

An was running at 1920x1080,and nVIDIA just sent out invites to PC hardware press,this week for some presentation at Gamescom in Germany. GTX 1170/1180 is just months away.

I hope not. I just got my 1080 Ti a few months ago.

Hoping for 120-144Hz at reduced settings at 1080p with it.

Well, you can see the demo requirements: https://forums.cdprojektred.com/index.php?threads/current-developer-answers-to-your-cp-2077-questions.10970951/

and extrapolate from there. Minimum is probably half that or so, say a 1060-ish and recommended is, well, that or a bit less after optimization. Say a 1080. Maaaaybe a 1070.

Suggested doesn't mean a whole lot - your experience will totally vary.

It's not, or at the very least if it is indeed that they'll also be officially announcing their 11 series GPUs soon.

nah minimum are based on being able to run the game. unless that demo was on stripped down settings, lesser cards than the 1080 will run it because you'll still be able to cut all settings to the lowest possible and get 30 frames. TW3 had a 660 as the lowest, i wouldnt expect them to ask for more than a 760 or 960 or the AMD equivalent. the 1060 is too new.

and tbh, you can probably run it lower than that if you're willing to play with resolution. you dont HAVE to play it on 1080.

My concern is the game will have a CPU bottleneck way below 100fps

I know about that video but there's more recent information that popped up implying that it's not that far off. GDDR6 is being massed produced, a prototype photo was leaked and then there's the Lenovo guys straight up saying it'll be announced/come out this fall.

The machine that the demo ran on may not be representative of the requirements, I guess the demo used very high settings, possibly higher than ultra (only achievable by editing configuration files) to look as impressive as possible, but the actual released game could be less demanding than that. Nevertheless, if this is going to be a cross-gen release where the PC version is similar to the next gen consoles while the PS4 and XB1 are supported but significantly downgraded, I can still see a large increase in requirements compared to TW3. Especially if the game comes only in 2020.

Fingers crossed, I'm always itching for new technology lol I just hope the new flagship is at least 25% faster than 1080 ti, it's very hard to justify upgrading for less than 25% performance gain

Aye. Got my 1080 Ti a few months ago. There's no chance I'm upgrading unless the new 1180 or 1180 TI is significantly better.

Not concerned about CPU bottlenecks. Have an 8700K with a Noctua NH D15.
