More curious abt framerates.

2014 was odd . Basically only shadow of mordor/ lords of the fallen / ryse & wolfenstein was playable. The rest till date still buggy as hell. Only these games have been solved.

no TB is using a
5960x
gtx980 sli.

his new rig for quite sometime already.

and he is gaming at 1440p afaik gsync .

anyway tested at 1440. so far indoors averaging at 90-100fps . DOF/FOV left it at middle with everything maxed out.

DOF/FOV from what i saw at nvidia optimization is the one that kills the fps

will try later at night for outdoor gameplay which a lot of ppl say will tank the fps.

btw sli so far is working great.

to make sure sli is working... always check at the ncp and see whether it has detected the game or u have to manually add it.

rooftop was 120-140+fps.

btw this game is not cpu intensive as during all this testing i was encoding in the background running 100% on all cores.

gpu also rarely above 40c.

ok 70fps outdoors at normal view distance. max will tank it to 55fps at 1440p everything maxed out

also ram hit 12gb(thinking should i enable back virtual mem) running around outside and vram now at 4.5gb.

still uber smooth.

no flickering for me.

new patch..

cpu fix.

fps improvement.

based on nvidia optimized setting at distance of 80. min fps now at 60. max fps i hit was 140@1440p.

awesome.

cpu usage seems to be indoors 4 threads and outdoor 8 threads.

hmm gonna up the cpu speed. was only running at default 4.4ghz@1.136v
lets see how 4.7ghz does.
Also gonna run tighter timings on the ram. Really suspect its a ram thing also. This game requires optimized setups rather than one sided system.

rehecked. bumping cpu speed from 4.4 to 4.7 and tightening my rams.. only gave a slight bump... min 65fps max 144fps.....

outside only when looking around it hovers between 65-80fps. running around doing mission around 100-110fps.

so the patch etc is working great.

If buy from steam must manual patch or download with auto patched already?
I'm running GTX 750 Ti, fire up Dying light and just before menu it crashes and exited me to Win 7 Ultimate.
Other games run ok.
What is wrong..... I downloaded the latest Nvidia driver already.
Tried going back to old driver, I can load menu but while browsing menu it crashes and kicked me out again.
Have even checked game integrity in steam.
Arghh...

Steam auto updates.
How much Ram do you have?

Check in Nvidia Control Panel whether did it detect the game file under Manage 3d Settings/Program Settings

Tick Show only programs found in this computer
Check The list under select program.

Advice to use Geforce experience to optimize the settings. Do it after you have launch the game for the first time.

If u overclock you can push it under custom slider.
