Sniper Elite - 2

I'm having some weird performance issues with this game....

My GPU usage fluctuates pretty badly from as low as 0%, up to around 80% but it's never steady, also get random lock ups which i'm assuming is down to the same problem. System is rock solid in any other game apart from this one.

Using a 7970, maybe there are driver issues or something. Anyone else notice similar?
 
What's the multiplayer like? Worth getting? I enjoyed the 1st one, just debating whether to get this one :)

I'm liking the multiplayer so far. Requires a lot of patience and a good eye on the scenery.


A video of a 20 minute deathmatch session I was in with some really good shots. Every kill in this game in multiplayer is so satisfying and the 1v1 sniper duels you end up getting involved in are very intense.
 
I'm loving this game tbh. Played just under 5 hours and its great. I only did like 5-ish single player levels, and played a few MP games.

SP is great. Maybe the lack of stealth is a bit annoying but I'm still liking it. The levels are long-ish, so its not like 5 minutes per level. I do like the mechanics tbh. The drop off is off, cause at times you really need to aim upwards.

It handles well for me. I'm playing everything on low at 1024x768 and it works fine. Around 60 fps for me, but it NEVER lags. Prob can play it at medium settings, but I like the smoothness.

MP is also good. A bit tedious and slow at times but still good. In a 30 minute game, the teams got around 60 kills each, and I got like 25. Shows that you barley get 1 kill per minute (you can if you are good) but its not some run and gun sort of game. That distance mode is a great idea. Also, the new patch made it easier to join games.

EDIT: Its not normally my type of game tbh. I play a lot of FPS games, so for me to like a tactical 3PS, it must be good!

that looks so brilliant, i love this type of stuff.... thanks for posting in and very hard to play well... when you kill someone never hang round there, always leave the area; FEAR MP was the same as this too, very hard to see the other guys, you have to be so careful

yes, with my 7850 which I have overclocked and works fine with bf3, I find that I have to reduce the clocks to get steady gpu usage at 100% and to stop the game from crashing. Try reducing the clock speed and see if that works by setting a profile in msi afterburner for sniper elite.

it's nothing to do with drivers, it's just the game.
 
Anyone downloaded the Neudorf DLC?

It's a bit different than all of the other levels. Some enemy placement is random. Choice of path etc. Also if you get spotted, or bodies get found. that's it. you're dead. A lot easier to get killed. No running and gunning allowed!
