As said though, really not a big deal thanks to the modding scene and nvidias t-shirt dlss preset sizing (so devs don't have to fine tune it like **** to get the best from it) :)

Actually it's a huge deal. No-one should have to resort to the modding scene to get core game features that should be included as standard, such as joint DLSS and FSR support and other important things like FOV sliders (if you don't need this, fine, but many gamers like myself do due to motion sickness).

Should games devs use DLSS or FSR as a crutch instead of properly optimising their games? Of course not. But the technology isn't going away so games need to support it, which means both flavours DLSS and FSR. This shouldn't even be up for discussion in 2023.

Gonna build my base tonight, have yet to find a decent planet though to settle on.

Not sure what im looking for either.

Did you find the mine in a cave? How does that work?

No by mine I mean an outpost that I've setup to just run extractors and mine ore.

Currently getting around some of the space issues by the classic base trick. Remove the door when you leave. :D

How DARE you make perfect sense on here, this isn't the thread for that!

You're meant to be blaming the hardware/rival hardware/bottlenecks/protecting the lazy devs...

Until you start sharing wild speculation from youtubers posting clickbait, I shall refuse to listen! Take your well thought out reasoning and common sense elsewhere!

I made a new thread which looks over a few of the CPU reviews and CPU memory scaling:

Starfield CPU performance reviews

Now a few reviews have come out,I thought it will be useful to have the information in one thread. CPU benchmarks 1.)PCGameshardware(05/09/23) CPUs run at default RAM speeds https://www.pcgameshardware.de/Starfield-Spiel-61756/Specials/cpu-benchmark-requirements-anforderungen-1428119/...
forums.overclockers.co.uk forums.overclockers.co.uk

It does seem very single core limited and looks very similar scaling to what I saw in the Fallout 4 benchmark thread I help run. Intel was much better on average in that game to. Zen3 did poorly in that too!

It also does scale with faster RAM,but not as much as Fallout 4. However,it appears the X3D CPUs,even though they are the best AMD CPUs for the game,seem relatively worse than they did in Fallout 4! :(

My feeling is sure I am leaving fps on the table due to cpu bottleneck at times, this happened on Spiderman Miles Morales also, but who cares if I am getting my desired minimum fps anyways? No way am I upgrading my cpu for one game or even more.

Once I get to the point where I can't get 50-60fps on most new games coming out after they have been patched up, then I will consider an upgrade. Otherwise I still feel my 5900X is a beast :D

It's frustrating reading how far others have got and I'm still wandering around Kreet not really knowing what to do next :)

Wouldn't worry about it. I was on Kreet for like 6 hours at least before leaving. Take your time and enjoy. These kind of rpg games don't come often.

Anyone running with a 3080Ti, how are you getting on?

Ive kept everything on ultra for simplicity sake at 1440, but seem to get around the 60fps I desire! Give or take 10 at times.
Click to expand...

I do. Does the job fine for me. I am on 3440x1440 and have a 5900X. 60fps is plenty for this game. IMO.

Exactly, and no-one can argue with you because this is your thread. And it's been endorsed/verified by Bethesda.


If they do question you, we can all just argue and bring the thread back on topic again ;) :D

Anyone know if the day 1 patch was released with the early access or is it for the full launch?
Click to expand...
It was not, as that was classed as early access, "day 1" is officially the 6th. I suspect Bethesda have been so quiet because they've been taking notes from early access feedback and adding things to patch as a result.

Edit*
Although looking online just now, seeing this:

Starfield day one update patch notes leaked: Performance, gameplay & bug fixes - Charlie INTEL

Starfield has received a day one patch ahead of launch. Here’s a guide covering all the fixes introduced by Bethesda.
www.charlieintel.com www.charlieintel.com

current game version matches that. So seems the early access download included the patch :S

Its a useful bit of information when you do decide to upgrade. But it appears AMD is pulling a switcheroo with the RX7800XT launch. So I will be GPU limited with my RTX3060TI.

"That man chose to die!" sorry couldn't resist! Haha Nick Valentine!

Well if you're a good boy, and your 3060ti is still capable of remote access, I'll let you have a laggy asf remote access playthrough on mine? I mean whats 10,000ms response time in both refresh and button response time in a SP game, cant be any worse than the 30fps xbox version surely...

*Awaits flack* :cry:

So there isn't a day one patch then if our current game already has it? Is that what you're saying?

I will probably have to muck around with some settings - probably will be playable.

I agree but it's an AMD sponsored title, and as AMD have said, a lot of money changes hands when these deals are done. If DLSS 3.5 had been implemented it would have shown up how bad/behind AMD is in with their graphics technology. With FSR I was getting 75fps but with the DLSS 3.5 & the frame generation mod I'm getting 125fps at 4k and that's with the high rez texture pack. TBH I'm surprised these mods have not been blocked.

That said, it's a typical Bethesda title - they make half a game and the modding community has to finish it off.
