What's with the optimization?!

[Brownstone]

I don't have the best GPU but hands down, this game has the worst optimization ever. Anyone wanna deny it with their 1080ti can gtfo because I can play many games fine with much better graphics but this game with pretty average graphics... 720p with the lowest settings, I can't even get 30 fps. I thought Deus Ex: Mankind Divided had bad optimization but I can maintain 60 fps with medium settings. Guess what: It looks much better than Hitman...

I didn't set the comment filter to "Monkey IQ" so I know I'll have to deal with dumbass comments sadly.

I really wanted to buy this game, I want to support the devs. But I can't just toss my money into trash.

If you want positive replies, you might want to try some positivity in your original post.

Yep, the performance sux!

The devs dont have their engine under control. Even Absolution runs not great. Better, but not how it should :(

The monkey thing worked actually. No "lol your craptop is old it runs great on my 4x Titan X" comments :D

Yeah absolution is also unoptimised, I only get 70 fps on ultra

I'm curious.How much of a performance hit can you expect on missions after prologue? I'm using a 860m 4GB with 16GB RAM if it helps.I'm happy with a smooth 30 fps.

After playing the game for a bunch of hours and havng played the first 2 episodes I find the performance barable and acceptable. The performance is actually better than in the prologue for some reason. The FPS still dips depending on what derection I am looking at, but it doesn't feel laggy or anything. Also the episodes are way better than that mandatory prologue tutorial that made want to play Absolution again.

In my case the prolog missions ran with around 50-60 fps. In Paris and Sapienza with 40-60 fps. However in Marakesh I only get around 30-50 fps. Should not be the case on 1080p and a GTX 1070 sc.

Still there are people trying to tell me 1070 is op for 1080p... well ♥♥♥♥'em I say!

I am playing now with the memory limit in the options disabled and I have a lot better and stable fps.... It might be that the game is nerving the graphics card while it is not needed with the memory limit/safeguard.

I tested this game on the very same notebook computer 3 months ago. I admit, it was a non-legal copy. I thought it was pretty good game and it ran fine (30 fps, which I don't mind) on my notebook with the lowest settings. So I waited for a sale as I really don't have much money to spend on "non-basic" needs. Now that I could finally afford the game, it gets laggy. Any opinions?

OP has an underpowered laptop variant card (CPU probably isn't much better either) and is complaining this game isn't optimised...

Smh.

Man am i glad this game ISNT optimised for his laptop. If developers have to accomodate very low end hardware then the higher, opposing end will inevitably suffer. We see this with multiplatform games. This would translate to our levels in Hitman being stripped of clutter (objects), which makes the game world feel alive. Thats definitely not the only thing that would suffer. The vast majority of gamers now have the means to play this Hitman game cranked up to, or close to full @ 1080p. As the average expected performance for a gamers rig goes up, those at the bottom running on the lower end hardware will get left behind. Thats how the game works and in this case we cant move forward trying to always accomodate legacy hardware.

TL:DR - Dont expect developers to optimise high end games to run on low end laptops.

Why shouldn't I expect that while %90 of the developers do that? Deus Ex: Mankind Divided has much better graphics and I play it at 60 fps. Same publisher btw if it has any effect.

Optimisation is defined by the graphics, and this game's visuals don't justify it's performance. Period.

The amount of clutter and environmental objects that a GPU must draw in Hitman is quite a lot.

I won't have my immersion killed by stripping back or downgrading parts of a game so that, you, the lowest common denominator can play. Period.

Obviously you don't know what you're talking about. Graphics settings can reduce the amount of environment quality, most games have that setting. You can set it to max while I can lower it. Shocked, right? :D

But this is a failed console port so graphics settings are very limited.

[Brownstone]

Btw I don't know if you played Mankind Divided but it has much much much more detailed environment compared to Hitman. The streets feel alive, so much detail. Hitman has nothing when compared to DX:MD. Still, Deus Ex is better optimised. And you know what, DX is not even a well optimised game, it's average. So Hitman's optimisation is a huge failure.

I'm downloading Mafia III Demo right now and wouldn't be surprised if it ran better than Hitman, even considering it was an absolute disaster. I guess the only game that has worse optimisation than Hitman is Dishonored 2.

And yet beyond that you still can't run it. Your calls for optimisation are infact calls to make the lowest acceptable playable standard, even lower. Most of the time this results in a universal loss across the board.

But you're playing on low end hardware, no one cares and the developers will not accommodate you. Shocked, right? :)
