Another Developer Going down the pan.

It's the engine, it's a right mess and they never fixed the underlining issues! I go back to it from time to time, but it's never been what it should be in terms of graphical performance. When I get a 1080ti I'll give it another shot, but as it stands, a 980ti @ 1440p just isn't enough for ultra, high, even medium!

Weird, works fine for me at 3440x1440, using Ultra settings with Titan X (Maxwell), which is (almost) the same performance GPU

I have a G-sync monitor though.
 
I still don't understand how them not releasing review copies weeks before means they are going down the pan, It even says don't pre-order and wait for the reviews.

Its up to them, but I won't be pre-ordering any of their games, I risked it with Dishonored 2 and regretted it.

This, even the next TES game, as a huge fan of the series, I don't like the way they are headed so I'll be approaching any new games they make with caution, Dishonored 2 still sits in my library, not played past the first mission. Real shame.

So what are your problems with Dishonoured 2?

Bethesda often produce heavily story oriented games so it makes sense in a way not to send out reviewers copies too early so as to reduce how much people are exposed to the story and potential spoilers, etc. reducing potential sales.
 
Dishonored 2 was as smooth as buttered silk for me. No issues at all! Loved it :)

A little concerned that the Prey demo isn't going to available for PC but I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. Wasn't going to pre-order anyway. Doom was hush hush until release and that turned out awesome!

it does give reviewers a huge time crunch though

I dont know why i should care about that really. Release the product, let the reviewers get their copies after release. For a Dev or publisher to be bold enough to do that says something about the confidence in their games in that they are willing to disrupt potential day 1 / week 1 profits whilst the rest of us wait for the reviews.

I say its nothing but a good thing.

Yea, see gsync would be good, but I get horrible fps dips and unstable fps. It's nowhere near a solid 60fps.

Performance issues. I realise its supposed to be better after a couple of patches and plan to give it another go very soon, but obviously disappointing to grab a game at launch and for performance to be so bad that I didn't want to play it.

The first week it came out, I played it on my laptop with an 860m and it was more than playable at max settings albeit at 720P. I put about 20 hours into it without any sort of major issues. So I never really bought that problems were that bad.

Umm yeah sorry, I guess if it was fine for you then everyone must have been making it up. I'm sure I imagined it when the FPS was dropping to around 10 in one place.
