Down to 720k already from 1.3m and it's FRIDAY EVENING

[Nonomori]

Just proves how asinine the optimization is, that you get 45 fps on 4090 and how subpar it is in other aspects. People only now started to realize this and leave, well, full night ahead, I bet it's going down to 200k x)

I'm assuming there were a very healthy number of refunds, but only time will tell.

[SynekMendo]

You.. do understand that many people have jobs and/or are tired after playing so much... right?

[Suggarnaut]

Other people need to sleep btw

[Ludicrits]

God forbid some of us work.

Idiots post this after every weekday release like people aren't at work during the day.

[Azaem95]

so why mixed reviews?

Not everyone can game for 12 hours every day inbetween picking up their welfare money.

I can see it breaking its peak tonight once people get off work/wake up from playing it all night yesterday

5080 + 9800x3d, 1440p maxed settings locked at 120 fps here. So someone getting 45 fps with a 4090 means they have a bottlenecked cpu. I'm personally having a great time.

How fun that to have a great time (i.e, just grazing over 60 fps), you need to have an absolute end-tier beast of a PC, without this game offering an adequate graphic quality in return x) KCD 2 for example has way better graphics and it works perfectly on mid machines as well.

Cope more.

I have a 3060 and a Ryzen 9 processor and I run the game at over 60fps.

They are probably using frame gen to reach 120. Even if they aren't, it's a $2000 GPU. Most people don't come close to that level of power, so most people aren't having that nice experience.

I can't imagine how many people are playing this game right now at 30fps, or even less, because they already dropped $70, played over 2hrs and are a part of the hype train. It's a shame but it won't last long before they stop. Maybe then Capcom will optimize the game or it'll die out. MH:W was great because all mid-tier GPUs were able to hit 60fps and that was before DLSS and upscaling. This game doesn't look that much better but requires 3x the power to hit the same benchmark as Worlds did. So everyone is using Frame Gen from either AMD or Nvidia to make it the game playable.

Basically the internet hivemind determined the game is good but a lot of those people must be playing at like 20fps right now. Steam Hardware survey just doesn't show that many people have the GPU to play the game.

No, you're running the game @~30fps with frame gen on.

Idk where you are but 22 minutes after your post it is 2:49 PM for me. People are still at work, kids are still in school. I am fortunate to have a laptop that can run the game well and a job where I can have downtime to play it, that is why I personally am on right now. Others do not have that luxury. I do not know how numbers will look in a few hours but citing the player count at this current time as a downfall is silly and disingenuous. You have you wait a few hours at least. Again, I do not know where you are located but you have to remember that the world revolves around the US lol
