Have they fixed the GTX 900 series driver yet?

[Coldest]

Do not want to jump back and forth between new and old drivers. I won't be spending money on DLC until this issue is resolved.

[pascal83]

No, it doesn't look like. But that's an NVIDIA thing I guess.

Why not just get the old drivers, play the game through and then uninstall it and update the driver again? It's a pretty linear story based game, not something you'll be playing for hundreds of hours.

That is a temporary fix- Nvidia needs to make a permanent fix regardless.

No. They're too busy paying shill accounts to blame Nvidia and everyone else because they are incapable of fixing their own game.

Explain then how they could optimize the latest Nvidia drivers? The game works as intended on the GTX 900 series with the older drivers, so the issue is with the latest Nvidia drivers.

The permanent fix nvidia wants you to use is upgrade your 7+ year old hardware. If it wasn't im sure it would have been fixed in the 2 drivers releases since launch.

Seems to me that you're the Nvidia shill who can't accept that Nvidia drivers could possibly ever have a bad release version. Nvidia has many bad driver releases, they are not infallible.

Beyond that, they have proven time and time again that they will do shady stuff to... encourage... customers to upgrade, such as releasing intentionally borked drivers and not fixing them. Not saying this is the actual reason it runs like butt on a 9 series, but I wouldn't put it out of the realm of possibilities, not by a longshot.

"I own Nvidia, therefore it will always work and any problems are on the dev side in any scenario."

Keep drinking that kool-aid!

Thats not even remotely true, Maxwell chips are still produced and sold as new to this day. Maybe you should leave the technical information to people that know what they are talking about.

Sure thing... because they sure haven't done it before... right??

2 drivers since launch, find it any better?

Also remind me what maxwell GPUs are still made and sold today??

You can buy them in their Shield devices running on a 64 bit bus. In fact they recently updated the architecture giving it a 25% bump in performance. Do you have anything else, or are you done since you haven't added a single thing of importance to the discussion.

I fail to see what that has to do with desktop GPUs that play PC games, you think the drivers for a integrated shield GPU that displays a GUI has anything to do with the desktop drivers that play AAA games?

You act like this has never happened before? It happened with Kepler and now it seems like maxwells time is coming. 780 ti started to fall behind 290x and 980 and had driver issues.

You could have stopped right there. We know.

[FeilDOW]

Yes, yes you did. It's okay, you'll upgrade someday from 7 year old hardware.

Even shredder upgraded his monster 970.

GTX 980ti came out more like 5 years ago and is still a very capable gpu...I can play the vast majority of modern games beyond 60fps....GotG is an outlier.
Besides which it is currently virtually impossible at this point in time to find a new gpu at msrp to upgrade to.

Agree but in this special case it's up to NVIDIA cause the older driver works fine.

The 980 ti released 6 1/2 years ago in June 2015. All im saying is this is how the downhill started with the 780 ti. Certain games get botched performance with newer drivers and you'll start to see it fall behind the 1070/1660 ti more and more with new releases.
