Renacles, do games w Open source community figures out problems with performance in Starfield

If this is such a big issue then Bethesda should make it a top priority to fix it, it does sound like a complicated issue though.

xkforce,

They should but its Bethesda. A company that misread the room thinking people making memes about how unoptimized their games are meant fans thought it was endearing rather than something deserving of mockery.

zipzoopaboop,

Or let the community fix it for them

pivot_root,

That’s exactly what they’re going to do because it costs nothing. The problem is they won’t ever accept the community fixes into official updates since they’re binary patches or file replacements.

Looks like Hans implemented a workaround in vkd3d-proton 2.10, using the open-source AMD vulkan driver on linux (RADV).

Device generated commands for compute

With NV_device_generated_commands_compute we can efficiently implement Starfield’s use of ExecuteIndirect which hammers multi-dispatch COMPUTE + root parameter changes. Previously, we would rely on a very slow workaround.

NOTE: This feature is currently only enabled on RADV due to driver issues.

I don’t imagine it will take long for this to make its way into a Proton experimental release. Folks with AMD graphics who are comfortable with linux might want to give it a try.

I was able to install the DLSS mod which helped some but there’s still performance issue even with using the DF optimized settings. I assume this will be fixed with driver and game updates but who knows how long that will take.

BruceTwarzen,

Until people forget.

This article is kinda pointless. Go look at the linked PR. The author says his optimizations yield a tiny performance gain. Not particularly worth mentioning.

For some reason I had terrible FPS drops in the original Cyberpunk from time to time - had to reload the game every half an hour or hour to restore FPS. If that would be fixed - I'm in. Liked the game otherwise, so all I need is some new quests, which PL should provide

I am so excited for the last leg of mods for this game post 2.0. 2077 modded with a handful of realism tweaks was my go-to game all of last year

I played the game at the beginning of the year, it was OK, I'm glad I missed it at its worst. But, I don't think I will buy the DLC, maybe if it gets a significant discount for one of the Holiday Sales.

That being said, 2.0 sounds like it's going to fix the game in a lot of ways, basically making the game what it should have been from the start, I might start a new game if the reviews of the 2.0 system are really good.

whataboutshutup,

1.0 is promises fulfilled, 2.0 sounds like something on a level of a new entry (or a big advertising exaggeration). We’d see.

That sounds like the smart option tbh, I am still not convinced 2.0 will address my biggest issues with the game like gear progression and inventory. Not really sold on the skill rework either, looks kinda as boring as before. Maybe I get the dlc eventually but there's no rush - it's not like they are making more dlcs for the game and need the money, and the sequel is already confirmed anyway.

I really wanted it to be great but for every high the game hit for me, it had double the amount of lows. I can't really be bothered to get hyped anymore for it.

I feel like I'm in some crazy minority here, thinking that none of these competitors are even worth considering without trackpads and back buttons. Handheld PCs just don't work without them.

kherge,

The new players have to learn the hard way why the Steam Deck was successful.

RightHandOfIkaros, do xbox w Alone in the Dark reboot delayed to avoid competing with October rush of games  – Destructoid

I hate this trend. I dont really care about the game itself, I just hate this thing that publishers do when they delay a game purely because they want to min-max sales.

Another way to look at it is to say that if it comes out and gets absolutely killed then you’ll likely never see a sequel, regardless of how good a game it is. Look at Titanfall 2.

The whole purpose of developing games is to maximise profit. Game developers are not charities.

They definitely aren’t the best looking controllers. Fans of the game may love’em though!

Lenovo’s machine will run on Windows 11 as opposed to it being a Linux-based system.

No thanks. I want less Microsoft in my life, not more.

(Also, I would rather give my money to Valve than Lenovo.)

We're going to have a lot of these, we should probably setup a review megathread or something? Does this magazine even have mods btw? :D

I don’t see any issue having individual post for each review (article).

This is big gaming news, so it makes sense to have more posts.
