Hmm so how come @LeeAbe above is getting 50-70 with drops to 30 on a RTX2080 at the same res, without changing settings (which I think default to Medium)? Odd.
Haha that’s not my screenshot, it’s from a Youtube vid. But coincidentally no, I haven’t. :)
Man, wish I knew. I have another machine with a 2080, I’ll need to get it installed there and try it out this weekend and see if I see anything weird as well.
1070 here and seems fine, but haven’t checked FPS.
This game is really great so far. Some of the abilities are just a joy to use. Attacks have weight. They just feel really good. And look amazing. The story is not why we are here, but passable.
Is there an ARPG that features the same satisfying whirlwind of combat feel as this game and Diablo, but doesn’t have the loot-shower/intense customization that they do? I just want to play through an interesting narrative with cool locations and badass enemies one time and then be done. I just want to rain death, not play the video game equivalent of a collectible card game.
I second this; the weapons are satisfying in that game.
As an alternative: I think Darksiders Genesis – which is ARPG by way of a brawler – would be right up your alley, too @Matt_W. Lots of focus on satisfying, crunchy combat, with little in the way of regular loot.
Don’t know if this is a good place to ask? Is there a better place?
Here’s a pic of my Afterburner stats. CPU is coasting. RAM and video memory have plenty of space to spare. The GPU is well under thermal cutoff at 68 degrees.
But it is 100% maxed. The 61% to the right of it is supposedly ‘Power’, since it got placed in the GPU row I assume it is related to that. My fans aren’t blasting like they normally would be if GPU was under real heavy load.
Anyone know if that is normal? I have tried setting Nvidia to ‘maximum performance’ in power management option but it made no difference.
I don’t think it makes any real difference. It controls what happens when you go outside GSync frame rates (rare), where you probably want it on otherwise it tears.
However, with G-SYNC enabled, the “Vertical sync” option in the control panel no longer acts as V-SYNC, and actually dictates whether, one, the G-SYNC module compensates for frametime variances output by the system (which prevents tearing at all times. G-SYNC + V-SYNC “Off” disables this behavior; see G-SYNC 101: Range), and two, whether G-SYNC falls back on fixed refresh rate V-SYNC behavior; if V-SYNC is “ On,” G-SYNC will revert to V-SYNC behavior above its range, if V-SYNC is “Off,” G-SYNC will disable above its range, and tearing will begin display wide.
I’m not sure about this ‘compensates for frametime variances output by the system’ thing
I’ve been playing this game way too much since it launched, and I’m very impressed. Yeah, the servers are a mess, but the game itself is terrific. They copied the best parts from D3 and PoE and mashed them together into something that’s awesomely derivative :)
Can’t get back online tonight so I’m just sitting around watching tv.
Does anyone know what determines what your initial resource pool is? Is it always Willpower? I have made a magic user and a melee guy and their default resource is Willpower for both.
I also read that summoners are not very good - the summons don’t scale (as far as anyone can tell) and many of them are weak. I was sort of thinking of doing a summoner but I guess I’ll hold off a while. It doesn’t surprise me that there are bugs like that since a lot of the skill tree hasn’t been externally tested.
And lastly… my magic user is awesome! Using lightning with boosted status effects. To use the rage I was using some sort of barrage skill, but I just switched to an attack that basically lobs a mortar like projectile. So when I use all my Willpower I lob a few mortars and I’m back in business. I don’t even use a generator any more (so I’m sad I can’t remap the left button).
