GTX 1070 Ti (8GB) for 60 fps (1080p)?? What about optimization?

[spartanezleonid]

I think that this is too high system requirements for such a game.

For comparison, for Total War: WARHAMMER III, the GTX 1660 Ti (6GB) is recommended (on high settings, this is 40-60 fps in 1080p).

I hope the developers will work on optimization so that players with medium and weak graphics cards can also enjoy the game.

CPU requirements are also kinda high. I am able to play Planetfall without discomfort on my GTX 960 2GB.

Tbh I think that
1)The listed requirements are higher than what is actually required(or at least I hope so). The game looks fine, but it's nothing outstanding

2)You don't really need 60 fps in such a game, unlike other genres, like RTS(including tactical battles from Total War) or Action-RPG

Hate to break it to you, but this IS optimized.
It used to be RTX 2060super. No I'm not kidding.

Have you TRIED TW:WH III with the recommended settings, tough?

The fact that other publisher decided for the old model of "if it doesn't crash, it's still technically running, no matter if with 1 digit FPS" minimum reqs doesn't mean it's actually better optimized.

I'm losing no sleep whatsoever about running this just fine on a 1070Ti.

yeah tw3 also turn your gpu into oven

That's Recommend requirement. I think you are fine above minimal system requirement.

Recommended requirements used to mean what kind of a system is needed to run the game smoothly on it's highest settings. Everybody knew that, and it was understood as that.

Now some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ companies out there started to mess with what 'recommended specs' even mean. For example, one such ♥♥♥♥♥♥ company, Acti-Blizz defines the recommended specs as the specs you'll need to play Diablo 4 on MEDIUM settings. It's an official thing, you can go and check it out right now, they honestly just did that.

It's a very dengerous precedent, because if companies just start to make 'recommended' mean w/e tf they want it to mean, then how are you even supposed to know how a game will run on your system? You'll see 'recommended' be like 'oh yea, it got those no problem' then you turn the game on, try to set it on 'high' and the game wont run. You'll go back, confused, like what the hell... I meet the redommended specs, what's going on, and then you'll read the fine print:
* for 720p, low settings, no shadows, no AA, 20fps.

The Geforce 10 series was released in 2014. We are talking about hardware as old as Age of Wonders III.

Well, I suspect you will hate it, but it is fine with me. Personally I don't care about high graphics in TBS, I am interested in medium specs.

I hope Steam will switch to displaying 3 sets of requirements some day: minimal, medium and ideal.

Oh don't you worry about that.
Forspoken, another crap game from a crap company, had like 5 or 6 'tiers' of recommended specs to play that turd of a game on. And guess what? They got it wrong on all of them, because that game run like a disabled snail.
So yea... we're already there.

You will wonder how much money people spend on games over the years, but still want new games to run on 10 year old computers.

The only thing I'm wondering about is what you're doing in this thread.
