1·8 months agoOh my goodness! I haven’t heard this song in over 20 years! No doubt a banger of a song.
I have a 3060 RTX and Ryzen 5600. And for the record, I still haven’t picked up the game, even though I’ve been tempted to a few times. I’m just going off of what I’ve heard and read from the community, and it hasn’t been pretty.
I was very disappointed to see another Paradox Interactive game published that was not even close to being ready for launch. Colossal Order should have delayed the game till April - May 2024 release. I believe this would have given them enough time to optimize the game to a highly or near-perfect optimized state of game. Also… where the hell are the bike systems? Bike transportation just seems like a given thing to have in the base game.
I honestly would have preferred they delayed the game to better optimize it and include bike assets and the bike system(s).
I’m expecting to have to wait up to 4 months before the game is optimized. As others in the comment section have mentioned, System Requirements are quite high. Off the Steam game page: “Recommended: Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-12600K | AMD® Ryzen™ 7 5800X – Graphics: Nvidia® GeForce™ RTX 3080 (10 GB) | AMD® Radeon™ RX 6800 XT (16 GB)”
I have a GTX 3060 and Ryzen 5 5600, but even I am worried that it’s going to run well at medium settings across the board. The biggest leading cause of concern is how much more area there is to build on. That just means that there will be more to render. Time will tell in the end.
Now I don’t think I’m alone in feeling this way, but I feel like in this industry release environment of AA and AAA games. I’m expecting to be a bit disappointed with what we get at launch. Even after day 1 patch. I hope I’m wrong of course. But I’m just trying to manage my expectations.
Ayooo… really?
Fair enough.
