Am I missing something or what! I can't seem to hit anything in multiplayer!! I feel like I empty 100 rounds into a player with hits popping all over the place yet said player just shots once and I'm blown up like a balloon! What am I missing???!??! Frustrating.

is anyone else having their game crashing constantly? if I use a controller it happens more frequent, getting ***** off now

it is a good game however!

Scougar · 17 Jul 2016 at 16:54

Is this game worth it for the single player campaign?

Yeah, quite enjoying it. Was sceptical about the glory kill mechanic but it does lend itself well to the speed and fluidity of the combat

I've had one CTD so far (since the most recent update) which isn't bad going, but I've also found that after completing a trial objective, I'm automatically asked to select another one from a list. Whether that's a user error or not, I can't be sure. It's happened several times though.

Rroff · 17 Jul 2016 at 17:24

Only had about 2 crashes so far and they both happened (not sure if coincidence) when I had nearly completed a map and went back to find stuff I'd missed.

I seem to be getting higher fps now when using vulkan. No doubt due to the last driver update.

Subzero85 · 17 Jul 2016 at 21:17

Anyone think I should buy this as my game library is getting lonely, big download though, im thinking on maybe this or overwatch

Is the CDKeys £21 the best deal for this game?

d_brennen · 17 Jul 2016 at 22:05

Someone else posted (in this thread or the OGL v Vulkan one) somehwere at £19. It's Sunday so I'm not doing the legwork for you

What's best settings for a 980ti @ 1440p? Is Vulkan better?

Edit, Vulkan is a slideshow so that answers that!

arc@css · 20 Jul 2016 at 11:26

^^ I'm running a 980Ti at 1440p with vulkan and it's very good performance. Something must be awry at your end.

Not sure, but when I say slideshow I mean around 5fps. It cripples the game.

I get some weird stuttering with Vulkan. OpenGL 1440p maxed sits at 60fps with a 1070@stock. Running on Vulkan, the game shows 60fps but stutters noticeably in certain scenes.

I guess I won't bother since the game doesn't require more horsepower and Vulkan/DX12 will probably be more advantageous to AMD, seeing as the 1070/1080 still don't support Async Compute on a hardware level (that's what I've heard, might be wrong).

MooMoo444 · 20 Jul 2016 at 12:44

Why do they always spoil it by adding multiplayer achivements. Some of us just like singleplayer but now can't 100% the game. Feels bad man.

Amatsubu · 20 Jul 2016 at 23:22

All right, I found a room on level 4 with epic fps drops

The card was hovering between 40-60% usage, as usual. When I dropped the res everything became buttery smooth.

Update your drivers, Vulkan only popped when I installed the latest ones.

That said at 1440p it only meant 5% more performance, and with a 1070 I'm just using OpenGl (as RivaTuner overlay doesn't work with Vulkan).

What driver you on? Looking at the drivers thread it appears there have been issues since my current install (365.10).

I don't want to install Maxwell killers. :eek:
