Guys, sorry if this has already been discussed, but is there a solution to the stutter fest in this game?

I have a 680 sli but it stutters like shit.

Just want to make sure it is nothing on my end.


Thanks!
this problem only exist on pc that play in higher resolution then 720p ...grinhurt

its a streaming map error , its the same bloody stream error that Bioschock Infinite had on PC... they failed to turn on LOD , cache cleaning and GPU ram cleaning of not needed textures

heck, they did a terrible job optimizing the Unreal Engine on the PC ,
some used Bioschock Infinite workarounds to fix this errors ,
some play in 720p because higher resolutions in some magic way force you to have a GPU with 3 gigs or 5gig of ram *facepalm* ...
its choking and lagging because when your GPU ram is depleted it uses Virtual memory and murders your HDD with constant readings ...
most users used theirs SDD and moved windows virtual memory there just to get faster reading times grinhurt

so no , there are no official fixes or patches for this game only workarounds for a problem that should not be there right from the start ...


Got it. Thanks mate, appreciate it.

lol wut

after some toughs , and testing ... why on earth it stutters so much ... i found out it was RAM DRM *faceplam* , had to upgrade my pc motherboard some time ago and well why not add more RAM into it [FUCK YEAH] ... had 4gigs 1600mhz ,ey ... so got 16gigs the fastest possible kind [in the future i could buy 2 more sticks to have 32 gigs ... but seeing that PC ports will now need 8 gigs so yeah , 16 gigs sounded like a perfect thing to pick]... and OC them even more ... and suddenly this game works properly ... WTF ??!! ...

RAM DRM ...

so i posted this find on this game forum ... the answer was the same like i DID wrote to kryon

it was choking and lagging because when your GPU ram is depleted it uses Virtual memory and murders your HDD with constant readings , by adding 16 gigs I removed Windows dependence on Virtual memory Cache it created on the HDD ...

but i answered, i have a Titan Geforce that has 6 gigs of ram for those textures ... why changing the ram in my motherboard from 4 to 16gigs suddenly made this game speed up ...

users that posted this problem, normally had GPUs that had 1 gigs or 2 gigs and only 2 gigs of ram in the motherboard...

so i got a troll answer ... RAM DRM and then this topic became a troll attack on me , COD kiddies with ghost ram Drm and many herpa depra pictures ... what a cesspool of shit

and then it got deleted ... haha ... maybe it escalated when i wrote my grandma could optimize this game better Whistle me elmo

so ... if you have 8 gigs or more on your motherboard this game will run perfect .... nice fucking port

did you turn that thing on in windows ... what was it called ... so it will keep data in memory , and will not move not needed DLL into the HDD Virtual memory .. Dynamic Memory Allocation or something like that ... what was it called ... using yamicsoft windows7 manager for memory optimization with Tuneup Utilities Process lasso prioritizer [aka Live Optimization] ...

sound is fucked , i mean the sound penetration ... on PC that is
game plays like Dark Messiah of Might and Magic ... then thief ...

Hello everyone,

We have just made public a new version of the PC version of Thief, v1.6 build 4158.14 This patch will be applied by Steam automatically when you next start the game. If your game does not update, please restart the Steam client.
This patch will address the following issues.

Fixed several issues with AMD Mantle and specific hardware configurations


While we expect this patch to be an improvement for everyone, if you do have trouble with this patch and prefer to stay on the old version we made a Beta available on Steam, v1.5 build 4158.5, that can be used to switch back to the previous version

Step 1: Go to your STEAM library and select Thief in your game list
Step 2: right-click on the game and go to properties
Step 3: go to the Betas tab in the properties menu
Step 4: select version_1.5 and press ok.

This will set you back to the original released version of the game.
We will keep monitoring for feedback and will release further patches as it seems required. We always welcome your feedback!

Indeed. I tried playing it again the other day thinking "it's probably worth finishing". Nope.

You can't jump, fall of ledges or basically do anything the game doesn't explicitly prepare for you. Rope arrows for another example. Blackjacking someone is a retarded mini cutscene instead of just letting you do it yourself. Tiny levels with points of no return cause of a small drop. 99% of the loot is pointless garbage. Competes for the worst plot and characters in a game. No Taffers!

Fuck this game was bad. Don't even need to mention the technical failings. When people refer to a game being dumbed down this is a shining example.
Back to the dark mod and fanmade thief missions.

Thi4f already was too dumbed down compared to the first games.
And now they also plan to release a movie near the same time?

Fuck this. The game will probably turn out like a total turd.

I sometimes wonder why companies keep raping even somewhat lesser known franchies like the Thief series. Sad

A quick movie tie-in cashgrab attempt that will sell poorly. Then Sqeenix can say "well, not much interest in stealth single player games in the current year, let's can this series and make a MOBA game to please the investors"
