cpu usage is unbelievable
my cpu is ryzen 1200 @ 3.9ghz and it remains maxed out most of the time with hardly dropping below 85% in no combat zones...with my gpu being at 25-30% with 45 ish fps at low(gtx 1050ti 4G)...
i have played many intensive aaa tiltles and my system easily beats the crap out of them.
i wonder how they gonna fix so much crappy performance in a months time..budget gamers should probably forget about buying this game at least not in this very condition!!
2nd beta will probably decide the fate of this game.

Your video card is budget, why are you complaning? The gtx 1050ti isn't meant for gaming.

It doesn't matter how good your cpu is when you video card is ♥♥♥♥. And it always takes time for developers to cater to the high end user (which in your case is only your cpu).

not for gaming??are you kidding me bro??...this is card is easily capable of 60fps on mid-high on 1080p.what do you expect for devs to list minimum spec? a gtx 1080?

havent you noticed what i said.....30% gpu usage=45 fps and 100 percent cpu and yet you say the 1050ti is ♥♥♥♥. The game is utterly broken for all users...GET OVER IT!

It's not even 100% GPU utilization on my 5 year old R9 280X. 30-40 fps on medium-high, reducing quality doesn't improve framerate, just makes GPU utilization drop even more.

Then maybe your CPU is not that good? :)
I have 18-39% CPU usage
Intel 8700K

You need to have a NASA computer to be able to play this game they mean. If you don't spend atleast $10000 on your graphics card, you CANNOT play the game.

sooooo... everyone seems to have their own opinion on here so I'm gonna add mine aswell. Right now the game does not run stable on my computer where as I'm able to play most modern games with medium graphics on stable 60fps. Even with the lowest quality it still runs like ♥♥♥♥ and honestly, if it doesnt run on a mediocre pc on low settings smoothly then something ist terribly wrong. Also the loading screens arent exactly short for me.

if you want to tell me that my pc's bad and i should upgrade my Graphiccard and Cpu then dont even bother bc it can't simply is too much asked from the devs that you need a high end gaming pc to play their game

@mr.niceguy I dont have an idea on CPUs levels what is compared to what. I just saw ryzen so I thought that it is quite good one.
@Flare Nah it is just badly optimised. Maybe they overdone map size? I am just guessing.
UT4 with smaller maps were more playable for me.

Even NASA computer cannot play this on high settings 60 cause the game cannot use more than like 1% of its power because its not optimized yet, maybe tomorrow cause I have heard rumors about a patch that uses more of your gpu so I think more fps for people with mid to high range cpu.

How it will help? My GPU is 1060 and it is loaded at 97-99% already!

1050ti does suck and like others have stated it is not a gaming series card. My 970 out performs it in every category with 3 years on top of the 1050ti release date. Either upgrade to a 70 series or don't expect great results from that card.

It's simple as that.

idk what do you mean by great results...but i know this card is very capable of solid 60fps at mid-high ish settings. i dont even own a 1080p monitor. and yes your 970 is definitely better but my 1050ti is a oc'd one which gives me additional 7-8fps boost over stock card.

I updated my PC and my GTX 980 is able to play this game around 50-60 FPS at max settings. It's no surprise that UE4 games are not optimized. Just take a look at Squad and Post Scriptum. Just glad this game runs on my PC fine though but unfortunate for the others.

1050 ti should play low settings stable 60 fps 1080p. This devs problem. The game reach lesser gamer. R6 siege, bf series could play with gtx 1050 ti. People chooise other games.
