Is The Game Optimized Now?
Holded off due to all the rumors that this game had the worst optimization for the PC port.

Hopefully my Machine can run all High Settings at 1080p @ 144 FPS Stablely

My RIG:

*Sapphire Nitro+ 5700XT Factory OC'd
*Ryzen 9 3900X 12C 24T
*16GB DDR4 3600MHz (3777MHz Boost)
*AORUS x570 Master
*1TB AIC AORUS PCLe Gen 3 NVme SSD
*750w Super Flower Titanium PSU

Hopefully yall got some good reviews. I heard the performace was garbage at release.

You're not going to get 144FPS, I dont any rig is able to do it honestly.
It's going to take a lot more optimization patches before we get there.

As for your question, I've just finished my first casual playthrough of 70 hours and I crashed 3 times in total, first 2 times after 50 hours.
The game runs really well apart from some heavy combat scenes where fps drops a bit.

I tried medium settings overall and it ran super smooth. (60 to 80fps)

1070 + 7600k
Well the game sometimes struggles keeping a stable fps. I locked mine at 120fps. Even with my rig- game just drops frames time to time. It's not a big deal nor have any issues of the game crashing on me. I'm honestly happy how well it plays so far. You'll be fine.

on my RTX 3080 // i9 10900K im able to hit 144+ flawlessly at 1080P and never drop below 80FPS in 4K MAX. Ur rig should be able to keep up perfectly. Although I have seen the game use up to 19GB of ram in 4K.

I dont care for 4K im all about framerates. So i hope ill be able to pull it off.

finished the game with 100+ hours in it and everything was flawless.

7700k, RTX 3080 and 32gb ram. @ 3440x1440p (70-90fps) Ultimate Settings + HRD1000 on

I think AMD cards are the last to get fixed iirc. Not sure if the last patch really helped though, you’d have to search through recent threads since there was a large influx of posts a week or so ago from the last patch.
here's the PC owners problem..i can't get 144 frame rate !!!! while the 9 generation console still have trouble at 60 FPS

I managed to finish without serious problems, but some textures for some reason always stay in low resolution, they are not many and you hardly see them unless you look for them or if you played the PS4 version, the worst thing was that in Frozen Wilds Map the snow has no tessellation, the effect is in 2d as if it was disabled, this only affects AMD Radeon (in my case a Radeon 5600) in Nvidia it works as it should.

144fps is completely idiotic. The eye can not see the difference from 60fps on anyways.
Yes, let them 'optimize' the game further so that some rando on the internet gets his frames rendered at 144fps. Draw distance, AA and whatnot already looks like sh#t. Let them 'optimize' further!
How about you get some mobile phone emulator and play frikkin mobile games at 1444fps on your rig. Or make a mod for HZD to replace every tree with a white untextured cube? That would give 14444fps...

Except the difference between 60 to 144 is significant.
You can definitely see the difference or at least feel it whilst playing.

This whole argument about "human eye cannot see beyond 60fps" is old and just not true.

Also I'm probably feeding into a troll post but whatever lol.

This is the dumbest comment i ever got. I can see the diffrence easy between 60 FPS to 144 FPS. It is very noticable. Maybe you need to get you're eyes checked for some glasses. You know you sound like the people who care about content rather then the game being optimized for higher end hardware. You type of people are a serious problem to the gaming indistry an why games like The Division 2, Ghost Recon Breakpoint & Call of Duty run like complete garbage no matter what hardware you have. Becuase yall rush content an the reason we havent had a good game that ran great in the past decade. I'd much rather have a optimized game that can push everything on high settings with no issue's on framerates then get a graphics quality game that has garbage optimization resulting poor performace.

Its sad that Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered can run 240 FPS on a Gaming Laptop like the MSI GP75 Leopard then todays games that cant even push 144 stable at 1080p. Becuase optimization was made not importent. Its all about new content an pretty graphics. No matter how garbage the game runs.

Its true that whole humen eye cant see past 60 FPS is udder bullsh1t. 60 FPS to 144 FPS is very noticable.

There is NO optimizing possible to reach 144fps, only DOWNGRADING!
And it is because of tech-noob fools like you who yell on the internet for 144fps that HZD has a draw distance where grass basically pops up in front of you and everything flickers.
Go emulate some PS3 game on your PC to reach your useless 144fps if you want 'oooptimization'. I trade in lush visuals any day if it means I can get 'only' 60fps. Thank god devs have actually a few more braincells and just aim at 60fps tops. Go emulate N64 games and leave high end PC games alone. I want to look at some lush and full scenes and high res textures, not some downgraded rubbish to reach nonsense framerates.

Runs flawless for me, i9 10900K+RTX 2080 super, 16gigs 4000mhz, at 4k resolution.
jayblue Feb 5, 2021 @ 4:45pm 
I get a steady 75fps running the game in 1440p. Only settings I have turned down are shadows to high and reflections to medium.

Ryzen 7 5800X, 5700XT, 32gb 3200mhz ram.
