Performance got worse with Windows 11 24H2

[kf543]

The game performance decreased with Windows 11 24H2. Before I had 60% graphics card utilisation and stable 60fps (I locked it to 60fps). Now I get only 45fps and 100% graphics card utilisation. (Radeon RX 7900 XTX)

Nacon should look into it. Ubisoft already fixed their Windows 11 24H2 bugs, now it's Nacon's time to fix...

Yeah, It's an unplayable mess.

What is this game? It's unplayable, it freezes everywhere even though I have a computer capable of running it almost at max speed. Without an update I won't stay on it for long, it's unacceptable.

What system are you running it on and with what peripherals?

TDUSC runs pretty well for me on a high end system:

9800x3d. nvidia 5080, 4tb ssd. 64GB ram.
Moza r12, RSv2 wheel, crp2 pedals, handbrake, project D H-shifter, NLR Motion Platform v3.

That said, I agree that there is definitely room for better optimization.

fwyplayer ..... You are funny ...You have top gear. I have a laptop with gtx 3060 6GB VRAM, intel 11370H and I have stable 48 fps. I can compete on the level top 10 in every race. I use native graphics without any AI crap.

ps. I use g27 wheel drive with H-Shifter. In most of cases if car has a clutch + H-Shifetr I use it. I drive on 900 degreees.
Remember ppl ... If the game is not top optimased game You have to remember about system optimisations, correct drivers etc.

It does, in fact, run very poorly on any system. You probably just didn't notice the uneven frame pacing, which results in less than fluid motion, regardless of FPS.

Until March, i was running on a 5 year old system (with a newer graphics card). My 5 yr old system (i9-9900k, 16GB ram, 2x1TB SSD and a much newer 4070) ran TDUSC fairly well (at just about 60 fps on a 5140x1440 monitor). On that system, I tweaked everything possible to get a reasonably smooth and playable frame rate. Absent the 4070, I don't think I could have achieved a satisfactory frame rate.

Moreover, Althair and Lardo, I don't disagree with you at all. What I disagree with is the blanket statement that the game is unplayable on a system like yours when in fact it IS playable but [severely] hampered due to [very] poor optimization. If the game supported a solid 60 fps on your system, I know we would all be a bunch happier. Moreover, I agree that sub 60 fps is completely unsatisfactory. It is nonetheless playable. Now, sub 30 fps... that would be unplayable in my mind at least.

As you correctly point out, though, it is not just the frame rate at issue. It is also the occasional stuttering/buffering which IS a major problem. And, that stuttering is mostly mitigated with higher vram graphics cards, newer SSDs and newer CPUs. Moreover, the hardware requirements for satisfactory play are still pretty damn high. The SSD requirement is thus the minimum requirement for satisfactory play.

In the end though, while I would have tried it as well, those who opt to play off a 2.0 USB stick or HDD are never gonna be happy. A 3.0 USB stick (and port) MIGHT get the job done, but I remain skeptical.

As a final point, I realize we may disagree on what IS unplayable, but in principle I think we are seeing two sides of the same coin. Unless you are running a high(er) end machine, chances are you'll be unsatisfied with the current state of the game. On a higher end machine though, it IS quite fun.

The game is poorly optimised. It is a mess unless you have solid hardware.

Not to make anyone feel bad, but on a 4090, i9-13900KF, it looks and runs great.

I AM CONVINCED that despite this game being very NON-TDU like and all its design choices, if it at least ran well on systems, ppl wouldn't be this negative about it.

It is fun to just chill in a gorgeous looking game.

This game requires a certain level of CPU specs. I'm using an i5-10400f, but the CPU is a bottleneck and stuttering occurs. All the manufacturer's recommended environments must be met.

Para mi el juego corre excelente, tengo un ryzen 5 7600x + 4070ti super + 32gb ddr5 6000 cl30. Obtengo una media de 100 fps en ultra jugando en 1440p con el RTX activado + DLSS..

Yes funny 5080user talk about playing in 4K at 165fps in ultra, without anyproblem. Thanks MFG x4. 48fps isn't good for playing in pc, a ps5 do better.

What a load of BS. PS5 can't hold 60 fps in 1080p:
