This game is poorly optimized

[BrokenClockworkElf]

I have installed this game after getting a SSD drive installed and it still gives me crappy frame rates

[MoosePotato666]

lol what is your build? Without knowing that, it's really impossible to know if it's the game or if it's your PC.

i played this game capped at 120 on like a 4gb rx480 when I first got it. That's more than I can say about any other recent activision game. That being said it starts doing weird stuff sometimes over 120fps if uncapped.

put fps to unlimited and don't play on a over decade old rig

This is what happen when console players suddenly switch to PC gaming it's a disaster!

I am just saying this game is not very optimized.

My stats are pretty maxed out.

The fact I have to upgrade every year for this company tells me that they aren’t great at being coders.

I feel like there is a lot of toxicity with this company’s fandom so I am just going to support more indie games lol

what kind of frames are you getting and at what resolution? what are your specs? just curious.

Not defending the game, it's not an optimized game. AAA studios are pretty much shovelware companies nowadays.

OP calls the game poorly optimised and when asked for something as basic as system specifications, they refuse to answer and just call everybody toxic.

Pretty safe bet that OP's setup is the problem. Especially since this is a 5 year old game, now, so should be able to run on pretty much anything.

What the hell does "Maxed out stats" mean? This isn't a LitRPG.

Game runs at a solid 60FPS on my crappy laptop from 2017 (running a GTX 1070)

If OP can't beat my crappy laptop, which has gotten to the point where it occasionally blue-screens if I try to play anything, then they REALLY need to upgrade their PC.

i dunno if it's OP's PC, the game isn't perfect, and definitely not optimized, but it does run fine on setups that are pretty outdated now for sure.

And it's not really the devs' fault, activision is just run of the mill AAA. They release a title, and might have a small team debug it for a few months after release before abandoning it when the sales slow down. From there i'd assume they only patch it when they get enough tickets for the same problem and there's no telling who or how they handle that.

AAA studios don't care about games anymore, they care about profits, so expecting any regular updates for a game beyond a few months from a AAA publisher isn't going to happen unless you can convince millions of normal consumers to stop giving them money until they start releasing finished games.

I'm only 60 minutes in, but It seems to be quite playable on my rig, which is somewhere between a Series S and a PlayStation 5.

If we were to place the PlayStation 5 as the Minimum Requirements then I would say the game is optimized.

It does seem playable on the Steam Deck as well, though I haven't had much desire to play the game on the Deck. It might be because it gets so close to 60 FPS, that it seems insulting to lock it to 30 FPS.

i have tested it on 3 different pcs with different hardware and operating systems. i7-4700mq and gtx 770m struggles. i7-2600 and gtx 650 ti boost runs it better. i7-8700k and rtx 2080 ti runs it perfectly. i can for sure tell that it is not a ram problem, as my pc with gtx 770m have 32 gigabytes. the level that works the worst is the vulcano level.

how i got around the issue of spyro moving on his one and fps part i put it to 100 fps it solve that issue. The frame rate was buttery smooth I can't say if this will work with everyone

[andreasaspenberg575]

i will try that. how do i configure that?

The Game is not really poorly optimized the engine that the game using ♥♥♥♥ version of UE4.

A SSD doesn't have anything to do with FPS and unlike you're playing open world, then the amount of loading on the fly is very minimal as well. In a game like this it rather comes down to CPU, GPU and RAM and if these are outdated, then no amount of optimization can help you.

Let's not forget, that you're intentionally hiding your specs after people asking for it. It's obviously your good right to do so, but then you shouldn't be surprised that people assume, that the problem lies within your system rather than the game. And given that you've only recently switched to SSD it's not that far fetched to assume, that the system as a whole is similarly outdated as an HDD.
