Screamapillar on 06 March 2013

I have an AMD 6850 and I can use Ultra settings with TressX on, but I have to turn AA down to x8 instead of x16 otherwise the benchmark test puts my average FPS just below 30 instead of 33-34.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.

what are the command function to turn on the fps counter in the corner?

My game runs smooth and on the highest possible in everything. Just curious to see what the fps is though.

Well I use EVGA precision X for that.

So there isnt' a quick cntl F or something that I can press.  LIke I said my game is completely smooth and not seen any hickups at all, so its not big deal.  Was just curious to see what my fps was.

haha does anyone press the L1 button randomly just because the boom sound is really neat?

I do wish I could turn that off so it doesn't give answers to puzzles, and just the boom sounds remains. There's less combat than I was expecting about as much as Tomb Raider 2. Which is still a lot for a tomb raider, but still I was expecting more.


@CGI quality have you still had problems with crashing? I've seen two solutions one is to go to 310.90 drivers but this has (Cryis 3 is negatively affected by going back) and the other is to use hitman's absolution sli-profile.

And disabling things. Nvidias working on patch, for the 600 series, but you'll probably beat it by thin.

Nah, no issues since disabling tessellation. I can hold out until they both patch the game (Crystal D) and update the driver for it (NVIDIA).

Even disabling Tessellation and the fullscreen thing that is reccomended to fix the crashing, I am still crashing.

So I am going to wait on playing this game till patch or new driver comes out it seems.  It loses immersion when having to restart game every 15 minutes.
