Thank you EA for fucking it up everywhere...

Looks like the game was designed for consoles first at a 30fps target. And failing at that.

Then as an afterthought.. just shipped the PC version, hoping for the best :/

Good morning, guys. Do you fancy a...

Obligatory "no, it's the customers who are wrong" moment.

Also I find this is the comments section. I find it really dumb how ppl can come to this wild assumption, that PC gaming is on the decline/dying, because some AAA ports are utter shit.

Like why is it the dolts and casuals always put focus on just the AAA market, and assume the entire gaming industry is based on only those subset of games?. Like there are now more indie games than there are AAA, and plenty to go around that work well on PC.

Meh. It's the usual "consoles are too weak / PC gaming is dead" cycle that happens in every console generation at the end of one and the beginning of the next. The only difference this time is that pandemic and crypto gave Nvidia the impression that PC users would buy anything at any price, only to find out that they're wrong.

PC gaming is fine, outside of shitty ports that have more to do with publishers rushing to launch its games before they're ready.

" Old Branding: Intel Core i5-13420H (13th Gen Raptor Lake)

New Branding: Intel Core Ultra 5 1003H (14th Gen Meteor Lake)"

That sounds awful

Step Aside AMD & NVIDIA, Intel Now Has The Cheapest 16 GB GPU Priced At Just $339 US

Yea I wouldn't believe any rumour about delays unless it's coming straight from Nvidia. Every generation of GPUs, we had the same nonsense where someone claims the next gen Nvidia GPUs are going to get delayed. Like how MLID said Lovelace was going to launch in 2023 because they overproduced Ampere and so on. Nvidia is always on a 2 year cycle because the GPU release schedule gets planned years in advance regardless of market conditions. I wouldn't believe that Blackwell will get delayed to 2025 unless it's coming from Nvidia.

I swear it feels like Intel and AMD always try to come up with the wort possible naming scheme for their mobile processors.

I just wondered why DLAA is a little bit faster than DLSS quality in MS Flight Simulator, but looks a lot worse.

Then I found out that I chose the wrong DLAA... "Directionally Localized Anti-Aliasing" instead of Nvidia's "Deep Learning Anti-Aliasing":

People will probably just say U3 U5 U7 and  U9 . Thtas what inter should have done, Chancge the i to a u and keep everything else the same.
