Red Dead Redemption 2

[Josh]

Has anyone else received this error when attempting to launch the game via the desktop shortcut that the installation created?

Yup getting the same.

 

[FredFlint]

Just had a small game update.

 

[RobPot]

Sounds like you installed it to C drive and the launcher needs to be run as admin to run it.

Both on E:/, but ruunning the Launcher as admin at least started the game, until it stopped...
Thanks for the tip

I thought this would be screenshot central this afternoon.

I am running on the lower end of Balanced now so basically Ultra textures and everything else Medium/Low.

I'm playing with gfx settings on 'Balanced' with my Vega 64 at 1440p my OSD is saying my FPS never drops below 60. Thing is I keep experiencing what I perceive to FPS drops but my OSD never budges from 60 fps. I dont know if the OSD isn't reading things properly or something else is going on.

Game runs like an unplayable bag of crap. Started out at near 100fps, then its now dipped to 28fps and stuck there with the GPU at under 40% utilisation. Wtf...

 

[olliej82]

66 average at 1440p with a 2080ti. Nope. There's no optimisation patches going to address performance some 50% under where it should be if that guru3d slide is to be believed.

If this is true then what a huge disappointment, the game has come to pc a whole year later than console. The performance should be far better.

80MB patch has just come down for me, hasn't fixed **** though. I have the launcher exit problem.

 

[StrongSad]

I seem to be lucky. No issues here and solid 60fps 1080p performance with my 980Ti

Stuff is turned down but looks great.

My settings

This is the problem with PCs compared to consoles, on consoles everyone has the same hardware and software. Take even just this last page or so, you have some people saying its running smoothly and others saying its unplayable or doesnt run at all. Must be a nightmare for PC devs

 

[TonyTurbo78]

and this is why I was fine waiting for the Steam release. Get the issues ironed out and i'll play it at Christmas. It's not like I haven't played it, got 70% of trophies on PS4 so I can wait for bugs and patches to roll out.

 

[Bishie]

Damn that must be annoying, seems I got lucky it just works for me, haven't had a single problem. Hope you sort it mate.

I appreciate your concern, but thankfully the game runs via the launcher, I just prefer to use desktop shortcuts for my games!

 

[Len Dananey]

I don't understand why you are all getting issues? I am maxed out at 1440p here and has not dipped under 120fps once. I do use 2 x 1080ti's and overclocked cpu but you guys should be able to run this easily with newer cards with decent FPS. I wonder if a program is making the game run crap or something in the background? One of the smoothest experiences I have played on PC for years from release. If I can help I will.

Just got home and decrypted, all working. Was not expecting to be so lucky!

[StrongSad]

Just had a 85 Mb update....

 

[A Man Called Sun]

HDR is a mess. Everything is so damn dark even after maxing out the HDR brightness settings.

Ah well. Hopefully they fix it.

 

[P1Fanatic]

Another one who had the crashing part way through the intro scene. None of the Rockstar suggestions made any difference. Changed to DX12 and its running ok now.

 

[no_1_dave]

Think I'll wait for Steam release once all the bugs are ironed out and OCUK has had a good Black Friday offer on 2080TI's *cough*

80MB patch has just come down for me, hasn't fixed **** though. I have the launcher exit problem.

Same getting pretty annoying now.
