    Hey,

    Your GPU card is a bit below the minimum requirements BUT don't lose hope :P. I've played many games with a spec below their minimum requirements, the only thing that I had to do is clean my PC a bit from bloatware.

    There are many things that can cause this. It can even be the HDD the game is installed on. The game has not enough computing resources to render your game in time, that's why the road is not streaming fast enough. Try some of these tips, it may fix your problem (and make your PC run faster).

    Advice for min specs: try to get an SSD, it will boost your PC considerably, its like magic 🙂.

Hey, thanks for the concise reply. I do believe my GPU is definitely above minimum specs though, because I can run the game at medium quality at constant 60fps at 1440x900 res. Also, it probably is the result of the game not being optimised ENOUGH, due to it's new release in PC, as I've never encountered such a problem for a long time in modern games.

Oh yes, I don't have an SSD as you said, will look into getting one soon enough :P Though I don't think that's the problem, still.

Edit: Almost constant 60 fps, occasional very noticeable fps drops.

    I have a fairly decent PC (Core i7-4770K, 16 GB, GTX 980 Ti, Windows 10 Pro 64-bit) and got this trial through EA Access. I am using the latest v364.51 drivers for my graphics card.

    However, I am experiencing numerous issues with the game from excessively long loading times of 2-3 minutes at the start and then another minute to leave the garage and start driving. On top of that the game is having serious texture and geometry streaming issues... I can see the textures literally drawing in for 15-20 seconds after a load and have FIVE TIMES fallen through the road into nothingness (three times in the same spot!) while driving to an event using the marked route.

    Finally, performance is pretty abysmal considering how little is going on. The game mostly holds 60 fps on maxed out settings with TAA at 2560x1440 but does dip to 56/57 fps when just racing around solo. Considering how little traffic there is at this point it's disappointing to say the least. In a race the performance can dip to 35-40 fps if more than two other cars are on-screen and generally hovers around 45 fps if there's one in front of me.

    Admittedly the game does look nice but when you have an empty city like this then there's really no excuse for not running better, especially taking into account the other issues I am having. It is certainly putting me off buying the full game.

    Yes, the game is installed to a 2 TB Seagate 7,200 rpm hard drive and not an SSD but I have no such issues with other games that stream from that same drive such as Star Wars: Battlefront (which uses this same engine), The Witcher 3, Far Cry Primal or Tom Clancy's The Division so the problem is definitely not with the game not the drive. Nor is it the game files because I have twice done the Repair thing and it came back with no reported errors.
