How's the performance 8 months after launch?

Title pretty much, Happy Sunday!

Performance has always been good, but it is even better now :)

Aparently it has gotten better.
Not out if my own experience, but the performance was very bad at launch.

FPS is solid. I was seeing 46 fps at New Atlantis back in Sept 23. Now I see 72 fps in the same location.

I run the game at 4k resolution using all settings on Ultra (shadows on High) and have DLSS on balanced.

My system is good, but not top shelf anymore.

Intel I5-13600K
Nvidia RTX3080 10gb
32 GB DDR5 @ 6000mhz

Installed on a Gen 3 Samsung 970evo nvme ssd.

It really wasn’t that bad. It has always been good

You’re being a contrarian again. The performance has always been good, it is better now, but even at launch it was good.

Those with drastic issues either didn’t have an ssd or didn’t have a rig that met the game’s requirements

Yes, because that is in fact the issue a lot of people had.

If you couldn’t run it odds are you didn’t have a capable rig

Even at launch, if your PC met recommended specs or better, the game ran very well for nearly all players. Very few crashes or game breaking bugs.

People who had problems and claimed to have a high end PC - often turned out to have a 5 to 6 year old system when queried and often installed on either a disk hdd or an external ssd drive. Using an internal ssd fixed most of their issues, and of course accepting their old high end rig is now very marginal at best for a new game like Starfield help them sort out their issues.

You really do need a current spec rig to run this game.

How selfish BGS has to be to say that we should upgrade our PC to play this boring game

Thats not what was said.

What was said is that the game was optimised, and if you had performance issues you likely needed to upgrade your pc.

Nobody was forced to upgrade their rig to play the game, they were told they would need a semi upto date rig in order to run it well.

This is true for every game ever, you need the hardware capable of running it, in order to run it

They said a lot and didn't deliver. End of the story.

They delivered on everything they said, stop lying.

Care to come up with actual examples?

[Ravenfeather11]

And so does the deflection. Care to come up with actual examples? Or are you going to keep making random accusations with nothing to back them up?

Bugs are a feature. ;)
