AVX2 REMOVAL!!!!

[ganzkorperkondom]

Hi Sony and readers of this discussion,I want to say in the name of all gamers that played SM 1 and SMMS,that we had a great experience on our low end pcs,me having 60-80 fps in SM1 and SMMS 55-60 fps,i speak in the name of the low end community to remove the AVX2 requirement feature,and please spare me the comments like buy a new cpu or smthn in those lines,we aint all living in EU or American States/Countries that give us oppurtunities for cheap and good CPUs thanks in advance.

[Ciaphas Cain]

I hope they remove it too

[jackman071]

No, we need AVX3 actually

[BastienFils]

Check Nexus Mods, I think there might be a solution for this on there.

You need to understand 2 things:

1. AVX2 is actually used for optimizations for games and essentially any new game coming will require it.
2. CPU's released in 2013+ support it (with exception of a few models) support AVX2 and they are priced anywhere between 50-100 euros.

I would love this as well. They did it with Ratchet and Clank. So there's no reason they can't do it for this game. I hope Remedy does the same with Alan Wake 2 since that game requires this nonsense as well.

New CPU means new mobo means new ram, your 50-100 euros means a new pc for a lot of people.

well the game is not very optimized lmao
so i doubt avx2 makes it that much better

[Hannibal]

Oh, the devs just straight-up ditched the game—zero optimization! They just threw it on the market like a slab of raw meat. Total disaster! Worst port ever!

And people keep saying, "All the new games require AVX2." Yeah, sure, only Sony’s "new" games. Meanwhile, I’ve been playing new releases just fine. Screw that Spider-Man game, we’ll survive without it.
I’ve got better things to do than upgrading my whole damn PC just for one ♥♥♥♥♥♥ game! My setup works perfectly fine!

Besides, Sony screwed up big time. Where the hell does it even say in the system requirements that AVX2 is needed? If I had known, I wouldn’t have bought it! Real devs give a heads-up! These guys are just straight-up scammers!

I speak for your own sanity, buy better hardware, or buy a playstation

[jackman071]

Nah, he wants to play on his first PC, the eternal love...

[DanJReid]

Screw AVX2, I want them to remove the requirement for MMX so I can play this game on my 486 SX33. Why should the hardware in my 30 year old PC determine which modern games I'm allowed to play?
