Tips for framerates improvements

[Joey634]

Hi everyone. 
Like most of you, I'm really hyped by this game as well as a little frustrated by some of the current limitations. 

I'm running a 12600K, RTX 3060(12Gb) , 32Gb ram @ 3200mhz., 980pro SSD.

Not a potato but not a monster either.. Middle of the pack and I easily keep above 40-50FPS. 

Here are some of the settings that I recommend you giving a try to help with at least the framerates.

Graphics settings.

• Resolution @ 1440p

• Anti-Aliasing = Off

• Anisotropic = On

• Quality preset = Medium

• Environment Prop = On

• Everything else at medium settings.

Gameplay setting.

• Max debris  = less than 5 is a good number

• Max Patches to display = 1... I found this to be one of the biggest contributor to frame rates performance.

• SHOW FPS = off.   It's also eating a little but fps on it's own. If you have an Nvidia, use its fps overlay.

 

I know that setting things at medium isn't what people are usually wanting in a game. But until they optimize it further.. let's do our part and actually help the devs pinpoint the occurrences of the issues in question such as the "Patches to Display".

Dev team. 
In the future, would it be possible to give us the option to either increase or decrease blooming?

The exhaust blooms from the engines especially.  They look great, but are "for me anyways" just a little too bright. 

Please also bring back the time-warp to morning that was present in the first game. 

 

Positives.

• Visuals
• Number of parts,
• The lights = amazing 
• loading times

Negatives.

You already know them.

 

Hope some of this helps.
