Just finished the game as well. First game I have actually finished in a long while. Even played on for an hour or two after completing jut to do a couple of challenges.

Does anyone have the DLC, and do you think it is worth it?

Also, in the .archcfg file within the x64 folder it looks like a load of DLC is coming, anyone kow if they ahve anounced anything else?

I might have this downloaded by the end of next week, or next month...

I really enjoyed this game, it's the only game I have completed in along time. Anyone recommend any other games similar to this?.

If you haven't played Divinity Original sin give it a blast, turn based combat but exploring etc is done in real time. Exceptionally good game

It works really well in co-op mode even though I normally avoid turn based games!

Is it just me or is there really not that much of a difference between ultra and high settings?

And yes, I definitely have the ultra textures installed!

smogsy · 11 Oct 2014 at 14:55

hardly any tbh there subtle differences but not much

MOOGLEYS · 11 Oct 2014 at 15:02

You notice the difference with Ultra more when it rains.

Thought so! Think I will just drop everything to high then in order to maintain a constant 60FPS (I use vsync)

Try knocking the Ambient Occlusion to high and see how it runs. I found this makes more difference than the ultra textures tbh.

Tried that but FPS still drop from 60 to 30 a fair bit

I get drops into the 40's at times and it runs like turd on either my 970 or 980. It runs a lot better on my 290.

If I didn't use vsync, I could keep everything set to max (except no AA) as it runs nice and smooth overall but then screen tearing is noticeable

Just use borderless windowed mode. Its triple buffered, no tearing no major drops to 30fps.

Nexus18 · 11 Oct 2014 at 17:28

Will give that a try later and report back. Thanks!

Nexus18 · 11 Oct 2014 at 19:10

Wow! That really works well Calabi! Nice one :cool:

Everything on max (no aa), 60FPS limit with vsync on and running borderless with a constant FPS of 58-60 now.

Does this borderless window trick work with every game then?

Worked for me too runs lovely now.

It wasnt me that found out I think it was Durante from neogaf. But yeah it should work with any game that supports borderless windowed mode. You can even turn off the in game vsync because its the default windows vysnc that overides it.

Do you have the 60fps limit enabled?
