Bulletstorm question

Just installed the game, I'm playing quite a low res of 1280x1024 with all the settings high and AA (dunno what it is but people go on about it) set to x4. Frames are about 46..when I sprint it drops to about 32...is it me or is that low?!?!

Do you notice it when playing the game?

lee20010 · 12 Aug 2011 at 08:45

Yeah, which is annoying, sometimes on cutscenes it would stop for a moment then carry on grr

Disable vsync if it's on.

lee20010 · 12 Aug 2011 at 09:04

what is that??

Just happened again, randomly froze and stops working.

lee20010 · 12 Aug 2011 at 09:08

would my overclock on my GPU make the game stop working?? twice in 3 mins now.

i think its more to do with the fact that you have a £40 cpu then anything, doesnt matter if its nearly at 3ghz its still a poor cpu and the low level cache will hit you hard especially in modern games. In short your cpu cant keep up with whats it needs to process

lee20010 · 12 Aug 2011 at 09:28

Ha yeah the cpu is pants, but I'm wondering is it worth paying £70ish for an X4 or just wait till I get an i7 and mobo, as my ram is ok so wouldnt need massive upgrade?

lee20010 · 12 Aug 2011 at 09:28

Would turning down the settings help??

lee20010 · 12 Aug 2011 at 14:37

or keep settings high and turn off AA

iamtheoneneo · 12 Aug 2011 at 15:12

well its not liking something and it points to the cpu, check your not running antivirus stuff etc whilst playing - just disable as much stuff as you can, lowering settings will always help.

instead of asking questions , just try it!

Sorry mate, but I was working when writing past 10am. Would AVG really take many resources?

Just got this game.

I have no performance issues like this dude.

Its a alright game, the humour is not my thing, I'm already going through the motions of whipping a bad guy then kicking him then shooting him.

Its a kind of yawn game overall, multiplayer I had one go on...it was rubbish.

Its a 7/10 game, 8 if you're a massive douche and like nob jokes.

Sorry yeah I'm kind of late.

If this had competetive multiplayer, it could have been the new painkiller!

Well maybe not quite that successful but there was a opportunity there they missed.
