As an alternative for anyone still looking:

Middle-earth Shadow of Mordor Premium Edition (inc. season pass) - £21.69 (by far the best price I've seen).

hmm showing £32 for me, was it a time limited offer?

It's been steadily increasing. I passed up buying it at work earlier because I thought it would remain the same price, unfortunately not the case!

I'm reading lots about settings but no one is giving their thoughts and opinions on the quality of the game.
What are you guys thinking?

The quality is very high mate. Ultra settings is really nice and the game isn't as demanding as first thought. I would say the graphics are as good as any game currently out on Pc when the texture pack is added.

I would never pay that much for any Pc game. Great game but I will maybe buy it when it's under £10.

Is anyone else getting the frame rate drop to 30fps on and off all the time. I cannot get a steady ish 60 no matter what settings I use. It's really annoying as the game slows down badly at times.

Is it just me ?

I don't get that Moogley, the game is extremely smooth on Ultra.

What GPU are you using ? I have tried everything with my 980 I just cannot get it smooth. I'm also at 1440p.

If I disable V-Sync it runs ok but tears like mad. With V-sync on it runs at 60fps but drops to 30fps on and off and runs like a dog even if I lower the settings.

:confused:

I am using an R9 290. I get no problems like that mate.

Thanks

meh

5960xNvidiaGamer · 30 Sep 2014 at 20:57

Yeah it's constant 60 and over mate. 120 hertz monitor ( overclocked at 132 ). No problems at all. Maybe it's a driver issue for you?

Are you at 1080p could be that I'm using 1440p.

I have re-installed drivers but no different. I think it is the V-sync if it drops a bit below 60fps it locks to 30fps for a while.

5960xNvidiaGamer · 30 Sep 2014 at 21:00

Yeah im at 1080p mate. 1920 x 1080.BenqXL2420T.
