Cant decide if I like that FOV , can see a bit better but its got a weird sort of warpy effect around the edges and its totally thrown my aim off. Will go back to the default for the time being, no doubt they will add in a proper FOV slider
What does "47 FPS on each setting" mean? As in every preset e.g. low, medium only gives you 47 fps?
Even with everything on very low, performance is still **** for me
That FOV mod I linked above is so much better!
No i tested my normal setting without them laucher options, I then tested them one by one and each result I seen no gain.
The Lobby area is hard to bench because people will always doing random stuff and that will effect the results but least in my test I was able to run across the map away from everyone to get my numbers.
Its always going to be hard to bench this type of game without some form offline mode.
Yeah that seems decent. Are you getting any weird hitching? Even when my FPS are above 50, there are some bad hitches.
No idea why these open world survival games perform so badly for me even with everything on low/off.
Maybe its because they are using the same engine/groundwork as arma (I think) which is very CPU intensive.
But still, it is just mind boggling how games like division, GTA 5, Witcher 3, fallout 4 etc. with mostly max settings can hold 50+ fps 90% of the time and look the way they do...
Yeah it is just about playable enough for me (if I could get rid of the random hitches, I would be happy). I can deal with the crap graphics as the game itself is very fun, which is what matters.
Here's hoping it gets lots of optimisation sooner than later and not be like ark....
I think that line is specifically for 21.9, not 100% sure. It is a bit too much for me as well but I don't know how it can be tweaked and on 21.9, it is far better looking than the default.
I haven't played enough to be able to tell if it has affected my aim or not yet. But it will definitely make it harder to spot/land your aim on targets for anything but short distance since things at distance will appear smaller/thinner.
Ah I see. The second one seemed to help me a bit.
This game is using Unreal Engine 4 Arma is a different Engine isn't it?
I not sure what version of Unreal 4 they using but I know that engine is still being updated with new version coming every couple months.. Squad being another game that is being made while the Engine is still getting updated. They have had to wait for Engine updates before they could improve that game.

I think it will, it's getting a lot of traction on Twitch so the devs will hopefully realise they are onto a solid game - from what I have seen of the devs, the listen to the player base and don't seem to be totally driven by revenue.
Fingers crossed, this may be the first EA title I have purchased in a long time.
Just googled and yup arma is using real virtuality 4 engine. Thought it was the same as all these surrival open world games always look the same graphics wise, game world wise as well as the UI.
Had a quick google to see what other games use unreal engine 4 and nothing that I have heard of or played:

Having a quick look on steam and it seems to be luck of the draw, seeing some people with better systems than mine and getting even worse performance than me or vice versa i.e. worse systems than mine and getting better performance than what I am!

Here's hoping! Although then again look at ark, it has a huge player base, saying that, with conan exiles release, it looks like it give the developers the kick up the ass they needed to finally move towards "final" release...
haha, **** field 1 purchase wasn't that long ago

Not an EA game is it? Bluehole are a Korean outfit that did Tera and some mobile garbage. Its on Steam not Origin.
I'm enjoying it as I said before, I cant get my FPS to display with Precision X but its doesn't seem too bad, not perfect but not too bad.
I seem to have a wall at around 20 people left where I just cant camp hard enough to win.
Needs some more options, monitor select in the graphics option is one that jumps to mind, FOV.
Stats say I haven't killed anyone, but I have so that needs some work.
This is an early access game i'll be happy to buy into and can have fun with where it is now, here's hoping it gets better going forward.
When looking at stats make sure you looking under the correct section, Sole, Due, Squad all have there own stats
Early Access - tbh though it is more widely known as an acronym for Electronic Arts.

Fair enough, I don't buy into the Electronics Arts hate train, TF2 is a good game and while I hate the Premium model for BF type games I still enjoy BF4 and they bought back some of my time with how well that game developed but I can understand after the BF launch why some people would stay away. I just wish they would use the TF2 DLC model going forward. BF1 is a disappointing game and star wars battlefront is bobbins
As for Early Access, that's a tricky one. I bought into Elite Dangerous and burnt myself out before the game was even released, I bough into Star Citizen and have deliberately minimised my play so avoid the same thing happening.
Only other Early Access games ive bought are:
Killing Floor 2 which was a good buy as its a fun game and was fun during its development, the paid for cosmetic micro crap was annoying but meh I still enjoy the game as a stress reliever. over 50hrs played.
Next Car game, a game I am convinced will never be finished and a game ive spent less than 4 hours on. looked great but its just not finished and now is a thing of the past.
I think Battlegrounds has enough to it now to be worth buying but it is a risk.

Enjoyed it tonight, rounds need to be longer though, don't like foolishly rushing into the centre. I wanna kinda take my time and pick ppl off, I like a slower paced more tactical approach.
I've overdosed on youtube videos of this, feel like I already know the map and haven't played yet
23rd can't come soon enough.
Agreed, it's nails though - not sure how the youtubers and streamers are so good. I'm not a bad FPS player but I get nailed a lot in this game. It's party down to luck and tactics and partly down to RNG of what weapons you find.
I need to change up my play style a lot for this, run & gun = dead.
I want at least 1x solo top 10 before the end of the weekend!
According to my stats ingame, I am now ranked #129 , 2 wins and 21 top 10 finishes. There is a guy on the rankings with something like 30 wins and 60 top 10s, god only knows how he has notched up 30wins in the same amount of play time as me ! Obviously far better than I am LOL. So far, 23 hours played since I first entered beta, so even if the game comes out and is rubbish I've got my moneys worth
I got 6th so that counts! Yes.
