That sounds unoptimized to me. Maybe next time if they take 10 years to develop it Laughing nice and slow, don't rush it.

No no....cant be true
When you press ^ to open the console you can see MEMORY at the Bottom. This Value should be the VideoRam
On my HD4870 512Mb it use ~360Mb @ 1680x1050 DX10

I think you mean the value above which is the System Ram, i think so

Yed, your right...the Core Usage on a Quad core is not good optimized, but all Cores are under load and one core more then the others

don't get me wrong now, i didn't made any direct reference to sun-settings, but to downscaling video options in general

you have to actually equip your scanner so it shows you where to find artifacts. better scanner=easier to find.
and the prices you get for or have to pay for stuff are defind by your grade of friendship to the faction

With Dx10 it runs alot worse. However, there's really just a tiny visual difference between Enhanced Full Dynamic Lighting( Dx10) and just the regular Enhanced Full Dynamic Lighting; personally I don't even notice it unless I look at screenshots( where Dx9 mode appears more 'washed-out' ).

I certainly notice the fps drop though. With Dx10 activated I will have 11'ish fps in one specific scene. If I switch off Dx10, my fps rise to 50 with an, as mentioned, almost unnoticeable difference visually.

We care, by the way. I didn't expect a troll with a wrestler avatar to appreciate the game's finer points... Or do I come here and let you shove your opinion down my throat. I will decide what's boring and what's not boring. Mkay, there, champ?

Please, shut up. Thank you for your opinion. Bye now.

As for the performance, not it does not run better than SoC, because the engine's been improved to show improved DX9 and DX10 graphics which makes it a lot heavier to render. If you go for the "Enhanced Lighting" mode, expect to run @ 30fps avg without sun and around 25fps when the sun is shining and the sunshafts etc are showing.

If you stick to the "normal" DX9 mode, framerates are more acceptable. Around 100fps on my 3870CF setup. But then you'll have to miss al the graphical enhancements.

Got to Yantar yesterday, but shouldn't this be a prequel?
