It runs at 30fps on all the lowest settings on a 2070 with 64gb ram and an i9-12900K.

It is quite possibly the worst performing game I have ever seen. It's a piece of crap.

Glad I didn't pay for this shit. And I will not. 🏴‍☠️ The writing and worldbuilding is probably AI and gutter tier liberal political takes anyway.

I am absolutely stunned by just how badly this thing runs like omfg I run Elden Ring at 120fps at the same resolution. What the fuck is wrong at Bethesda? I'm so mad about this I just played Armoured Core at a rock solid 144fps and it is so jarring to go from that to this absolutely horrific performance.

3090 here with an ultra wide monitor and running on ultra preset, game runs fine for me 🤷‍♂️

Might be something to do with hardware. My friends have been getting 60-70, though Idk what hardware they have. Or drivers?

[-] Mechaguana@programming.dev 11 points 1 year ago

Read an article on lemmy that intel cpus have a performance issue for that game!

Skill issue

[-] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it appears to have some issues with 2000/3000 series RTX cards. People with like GTX 970s are getting equal or better performance than 2080 Tis and shit.

Saw the GamersNexus vid on performance benchmarks across a variety of graphics cards and I think I'll wait for a while before playing Starfield. I think the biggest problem with most games is that they aim to wow graphically and completely forget to optimize for a variety of hardware, especially PC.

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

It runs like assssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Pirate it and test before you drop money on this thing. I promise you the time/effort to torrent and be sure first might end up saving you regret.

supposedly its better on Radeon cards until they fuckin fix it, because god forbid they test this shit out before hand instead of just assuming all is good because they are running them on $5000 PCs.

I have a Radeon card and if this is true I do not want to know how bad it runs on nvidia

[-] KobaCumTribute@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

Meanwhile I'm getting slightly better performance than that with a decade old computer that's just below the minimum specs lmao.

screm-a

I've turned it off. Can't deal with it. It's not worth feeling sick over.

[-] RaspberryTuba@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

This is about the worst way to go about things. What’s a great game that you wouldn’t expect?

Something performs badly at launch > people complain > eventually it gets fixed by devs or community > people forget and preorder the next version, or buy as soon as FOMO hits.

Unless it gets major press like 76, cyberpunk or no man sky, it won't matter much for the company, modern captalists don't think about the long run, they want a big bonus today, and don't give a shit if the company will be dead the next year.

Also, a lot of products have bad performance at launch, especially something that depends on optimizations that may not go well with different hardware. People can just calm down and wait for it to get stable.

70 dollars for an ugly game that can't run right.

And has no FOV slider or texture options

[-] RION@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

From what I can gather it's both oddly GPU heavy and 2000/3000 series Nvidia cards are having a tough time, so you're in quite an unfortunate spot. Also is this with FSR? Cause that'd be a big oof

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Also is this with FSR?

45 with fsr

EDIT: Nah it's 30 most of the time lmao

EDITEDIT: It's only 50 in the fucking inventory menus.

I do not understand why people try to play Bethesda games on launch. I mean, I don't understand why people play them at all, but I particularly don't understand why they play them on launch.

[-] charlie@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Even Morrowind at launch had problems. It would check to make sure you had the game cd in the drive which would cause periodic slow downs, very annoying.

[-] drhead@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

My husband is playing it on a 3090 and whatever the 9th-generation i7 unlocked is, with the highest settings and FSR enabled, running on 1080p. 45fps in cities which is brutal. 70-80 in typical areas. Strangely, he just tried it on the lowest settings and experienced no change in FPS, and furthermore the CPU is at 100% (good on them for multithreading!), that suggests it's likely a CPU issue. Weird then that it's running so poorly on a 12th-gen i9, that should be ripping through it.

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

My CPU isn't anywhere near 100% it's the GPU getting toasted to 100%.

Oddly enough power draw is only at 60% of the total that the GPU can draw, this leads me to believe that the usage is not accurate. I've seen higher power draw.

[-] doesntmatter@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

its performance in terms of being good is absolute shit as well as far as i'm seeing

[-] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The year is 2784. What's left of humankind after the water wars, wildfires, rising sea levels, wet bulb events, and category 10 hurricanes of the past 700 years has managed to leave the solar system on a generation ship. The Elder Scrolls 14 has just come out after a tortured 36-year development cycle with 19 years dedicated to "rebuilding" the engine. It's a Microsoft Holodeck exclusive. You go in and the first NPC you see clips through a boulder and starts slowly sinking into the ground after clearing it while muttering to themselves about mudcrabs. The gamma setting is slightly off and there's no way to adjust it. You start to move forward and the world hitches as trees pop in mere meters before you in ultra-low LOD, slowly coming into full detail over a few seconds.

I'm never preordering a Bethesda hologame again.

The Todd Howard AI installed in your neutral implant chuckles quietly.
