Started playing it and after 20mins I'm thinking if I should continue playing it.
1. I don't get it what's with the uber demands for performance, this game is poorly optimized. What's with the shine, it's everywhere, hair, floors, clothes, tables, etc - it looks cheap!
2. The gameplay is bad, very bad - playing with a gamepad, you just need to keep RT and fwd and the character can climb mountains. It feels fake, superficial and i don't like it. They altered the gameplay with ever AC released.
At first, when i read all the whining around the thread, I didn't want to believe it but:

yeah it's called optimization
somehow apple managed to do that as well with shit hardware, on their iphones and tablets
and 360 has equivalent to radeon x1950, 6600gt would be slower, besides we talking abou cpu's not gpu's

nobody says the game isn' badly optimized, but doesn't change the fact that your cpu can't deal with the current state of the game.
you can look up the cpu charts for the game. AMD cpu's are not doing great.
that's the reason its a bad choice for the game.
you offset badly optimized, cpu limited games by adding more cpu power, or you wait and hope for performance patches.
there's no other way around it.

same principle applies. you can't compare raw power of consoles and PC's.
both cpu's and gpu's on consoles have fewer layers to deal with.

why the hell not
ps4 cpu would be equivalent to amd x2@3ghz
gpu would be amd 7850
the only fact is current consoles were outdated before they were released and that's why unoptimized turd like acu can't even keep fps in 30's just like advertised, while cheapest cpu from intel i3 parred with gtx760 which can be considered as a current mid range card can do that, then again it will stutter due to fps spikes so it had to be locked at 30

You should feel bad for quoting that faggot you fucking fanboy, and before you post some jpegs that show that magical cpu overhead from Gamegpu.ru know that i can post jpegs from the same site, the same test contradicting their retarded tests.

It's amazing how much racket are some people willing to cause over the fact that AMD cards are simply worse.

Yeah he may be cool but hes a shill, along with the 1000 other Nvidia shills that riddle the major PC gaming communities.(neogaf, anandtech etc.)
Its because propaganda like this that we have 600 bucks midrange gpus, and shitty unoptimized ports sponsored by the Nvidia .
Fucking cancer of a company is what it is.

I strongly disagree, and if you do some googling on the topic of api layers in console vs pc, you might change your opinion on the topic.

Interesting how ppl will justify bad coding. Blame AMD, blame Nvidia, blame Intel... blame all and let Ubicrap have fun and save money instead of proper Q&A.

just play the game like this and dont expect major updates (from their side at least)

My comment was on driver overhead. Has nothing to do with who makes the actual game or how optimized or not it is. It's been recently observed, albeit inconclusively since we only have 2-3 examples that AMD GPUs need faster CPUs compared to nvidia's to get the most out of them.
AMD themselves made Mantle to combat overhead so it's not like such a thing doesn't exist in the PC world.
What needs to be done is more testing and if it proves real to call them out for it hoping they will fix it.
As for their cards being crap, hardly. They are great (well generally speaking - right now I wouldn't recommend them over a 970) but there are several software downsides which might or might not concern you. You still have to disable Catalyst AI to play Doom 3 with Sikkmod.
