Poor frame rate?
Just picked the game up. So far it looks pretty good. But I can't seem to get anything better than about 30 to 40 fps while nothing is happening. Anyone have any suggestions how I might improve that at all? I'm running a Geforce GTX 750ti with a 6 core AMD processor on Windows 10.

I've tried tweaking the graphics settings but it doesn't seem to do much. Even with everything on the lowest setting it seems to be pretty much the same. Wondering if maybe anyone else is having the same problems? Most other games I can turn the settings up pretty good without this kind of slow down.

I haven't tried it with Direct X 12 yet or that other render option. Whatever it is. Not sure if that would be more efficient or not?

DX12 is more stable for me and the settings that are the most demanding, yet give little in return are the two Shading Samples options. Turn those down. Since the 750ti is not as strong as some cards, I would have Shadows on low, turn off MSAA and untick the Cosmetic Clouds.

The other settings are not as intensive, but put them on low if you need more FPS. DON'T put any of them on ultra!

If you need more FPS after this, look at turning down your native resolution. Personally I hate even mentioning that, but it is demanding on your GPU if your res is 1080p or higher.

If you need to know anything else, just ask :)

Based on your GPU I'm guessing your 6 core AMD CPU is not one of the new Ryzen ones and is one of the old ones? If that is the case then DX12 may give you better FPS, if the CPU is indeed the bottleneck.
If you run the in-game benchmark it will likely show where the bottleneck is in your system. Especially if you test a few times with different settings/presets.

What resolution are you running at?

I have GTX 980 TI and I7 4790K .
Run at 60 fps on extreeme and never have any problem.

With a 750 Even Ti, dont put the settings to hight ,remember your Gpu is old and from 2013 ...we are in 2018.

Im a Nvidea Gamer and since the Gtx´s i always buy the TI versions, funny is that when i grab that card i sell it in the next day, games performance were all behing from what i expect from a Ti.

Thanks for the help guys. The native resolution for my monitor is 1920x1080 and I play everything at that. My CPU is an AMD FX 6300. Did some tests and my GPU is a bottle neck. I did a little better by using DX12 and turning off some stuff. The resolution doesn't see to do much tho.
