motorstorm is defianlty the better looking of the 2 , but this is still good and good for pc owners to finally get a half decent port that runs smooth (mind you every port has ran smooth for me )
man this game is just awsome... cant wait for full version... im just sad with the perfomance... need to be improved a little more... and starforce well lets play some online peiople!!! my nick is street!!!
starforce i noticed this too with the protect.exe file in the DiRT folder... is this still the same starforce "can possibly screw up your system" starforce of old, or is it less intrusive these days on Vista? the demo seems good -- nice visuals, runs smooth, not convinced by the car handling yet, but will be happy to tweak settings once the full game is released. so far DiRT seems really promising and fun
Seems to be real fun, graphics are top. Playing with logitech G25 and it works quite well. At 1280x1024 4AA 16AF all settings maxed I have 40fps pretty stable so i'm satisfied with performance as well.
I found the optimal setting for my system (solid 30fps, 1152x864 resolution). It still looks really good:
lol, grrrr, it looks like it, im gonna try this out when i get home, i hope its like oblivion whereby i jumped from 33FPS to 51FPS by overclocking the CPU to 3.5Ghz, but probably not, grrrrrrr
I just played it some earlier. Graphics are spectacular. Looks very smooth, and like others say- the motion blur isn't noticeable. Driving physics, while not as realistic as Richard Burns Rally (best rally sim ever), seem to have a healthy balance of sim vs. arcade. Runs pretty well on my system, no hiccups. No need for antialiasing since there's so much HDR+blooming.
ok guys i ran the game at 1680/1050 4x AA 16x AF and every other setting set MAX i got 7fps, is this normal lol.
you probably need to turn a few of the settingd down abit , i mean know one is getting really high frame rates but 7fps is pretty poor , i get around 30 try it on high instead of ultra
i get the same if i set some settings at ultra...trie setting them on high... i run it in 1024x768, 2xAA, reflections on ultra, and rest at high..and i get around 30 fps..
if i run @ 1280/1028, 2xAA, 16xAF +everything else set @ high-ultra i get 30fps but game dont look good on a 1680/1050 if their run at anything less than 1440/900
I ran the demo in xp 1680x1050 at ulta setting and it runs fine 40fps except for the buggys then it runs like a dog 17fps. Tried the demo in vista 64 and it sucks big time. FPS are way low for it to run smooth for me. Interestingly I have been monitoring my temps for cpu and gpu. The CPU is way loaded with this demo, but my 8800gts is doing next to nothing. Hardly any temp rise atall which lead me to think the demo is not optimised to run on my card. Anyone else notice this? The Demo seem to be using more of the cpu than the gpu. not to impressed by these new demos coming out and only getting around 30fps. Thought these geforce 8800's would cope better than that.
fps are lower in vista , ive looked at what others are getting and im getting around 5fps less in vista than XP
Yep, it just tippping the game to not run nice in Vista 64. Surprised the game runs at only 30fps though, but i guess its probably a port like most things these days? Maybe time soon for a core 2 duo? My AMD x 2 seems to be getting abit weak now.:approval:
smooth as butter at 30 , racing games dont need high fps , its only really RTS's and FPS's that need sky high frame rates
this game has to be very cpu dependent...just my luck..anyway it runs pretty smooth now...hope they will optimize it a little bit after releasing it
Wow, on high end PC it gives only 30 odd fps but it requires faster cpu as well, here are system requirements
