Ok with these specs? (Base game not Odyssey)
AMD APU A8-6600K Quad-Core 3,9 Ghz
ATI Radeon RX 560 Gigabyte Gaming OC 4GB
8GB DDR3 2133MHz
Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium
1600x900 Resolution

It's not a great PC by any means i'm wondering if i can play it with 60 fps or will it struggle at some point?

I of course cannot speak to your framerate, bc i don't know your system.
(what's installed, what background is running etc etc etc)

Specs look okay-ish imo.

You could try one of the "can i run it" websites, don't have much experience w them tho.

cheers

You will struggle if I have to be frank. I suspect you will have dips into the 40's at least in some places.

Specs look fine tho.

I don't run anything out of ordinary in background. I don't have any bloatware installed (except Steam hehe)

Task manager sits around 50 processes when i play games (system and steam processes)

That's not too tragic if 40 is as lowest as it can go for me.

That's for Odyssey. I'm not planning to touch that DLC anytime soon.
I just care for the base game performance.

Oh man, well then you'll be fine for now, just know that the engine from odyssey will become part of horizons in 6 months. You should still be fine after that tho.

All the true gfx heavy stuff is in stations and on foot planets.

I think it would work.

The base game is well optimized.

You're most likely going to just have to turn some of the settings down.

And these will be available to people who didn't buy the Odyssey dlc?

No. On-foot, and landing on atmo is Odyssey only.

Can drive SRVs on planets and fly small fighters tho.
Alucard † May 22, 2021 @ 10:21am 
So hopefully the base game still will be playable for me after Odyssey engine gets merged to base game..

No you wont be able to go into a station concourse without odyssey. And you wont be able to step out of your SRV or ship on a ground outpost.

It will be, the space part is not is gfx intense as the odyssey stuff. I got 60fps fine in space on a 10 year old PC with a gtx1060 in odyssey alpha.
