I retract my previous statements. Perhaps I was too sleepy and it was a placebo effect.
The game runs the same in windows 7 as in windows 8. Same scenario - problematic spot just outside garage, 24 - 26 fps. Even worse in other areas, but I took this as measurement point to be precise as possible.
My cpu gets saturated and GPU usage drops down to couple of %. So the game in terms of cpu usage is really next gen on older CPUs 🙂
It would be nice if they would make it playable on machines as it is stated in minimum requirements.
@chaz0r: I know, some people have those drops regardless if the HW is powerfull enough. With my friends PC it is working well - but please note, I had little time to test and I was driving around lagoon area (around that supermarket, where my rig gets clogged). There werent any fps issues there on his machine, but that doesn't mean there aren't at all since I havent driven that much.
In game the FPS are around 25 as far as I'm concerned. The snowy mountains and the forest are making FPS drop a lot.
I never had such a problem with any game I ran on my PC, so it should be powerful enough, but even on the lowest possible settings, I'm experiencing FPS drops and slow-mo gaming. They seriously need to patch that game if they do really care about it.
