Run a benchmark

[Roshambo]

Lots of people reporting stuttering with this game at launch and the problem seems to lie with gorked settings that are not tailored to what people are playing by default.

I highly recommend that people utilize the benchmark feature and make tweaks to the graphics options to optimize framerate before starting this game.

Settings that made a big difference for me were:

AMD FSR 2.0 turned on and set to performance mode (not an option for NVIDIA users but this made the most notable difference in my experience).
Texture Filter Quality - Medium or lower
Cap framerate to 60 FPS or below

Literally makes 0 difference. Stop giving horrible advice. The game is a complete stutter fest even on super high end PC's. It's a fun game but borderline unplayable right now.

It stutters noticeably when TF is set to high for me. I'm sure you can lower other settings and sacrifice visual quality to get bigger performance boosts but my goal was to make it run as smooth as possible without suffering noticeable visual downgrades. Texture filtering didn't seem to make a noticeable change graphically.

High end PCs can't play without stuttering. It's an issue.

Also the non-slider FOV... why not just play over Jacob's shoulder and have his EAR take up half the #$#ing screen....

Just sayin

Lol, FSR on performance mode? Whats that? 720p? Hard pass.

Oh, and FSR works on Nvidia cards
