About Cryostasis's Performances

[EvilInside]

I vote to build a church and go pray every day for patch to fix everything with one click...
I don't know if the cryo will win the most expensive game() but surely will win for the most awaiting patch for the game. I don't even know what kind of patch it will be... there is so many things to change and improve that maybe is more correct to say it "mod" instead of "patch"

There is no so much troubles but the perfs in Cryostasis, I think... I manage to play a little longer even if the game is incredibely slow, the game is really good... Please, a patch, a patch! T_T *pray*

Please please please look at the other posts before we get another I can't play the game because of its performance...

One tried and true method of fixing the performance is disabling the EAX Advanced HS sound option. This has helped many people including myself as even with a 4870x2 I was struggling until I turned it off.

Hopefully this helps.

I've already read all the posts, and I also did everything supposed to improve performances, including disabling EAX. I noticied that you have the best performance with hardware sound but no EAX.

- I check the PhysX control panel (of course, it was disable, I do not have any nVidia thing)
- I disable the EAX
- I tried all graphic options one after another. Nothing improved the performance but decreasing the resolution.
- I check the configuration file to see if there were some tweak to do... Nothing.

During the flashbacks, I have 9 FPS... I'm playing with all graphic options on high at 1680x1050, without any AA or AF.

The question is not really how to improve the perfs, but a question to 1C and Action Forms : will there be a patch?!

Yes it will be. It is still in development.

1680x1050 ? Really?
You must be kidding... You really expect to have perofmance at that resolution on a game clearly optimized for nVidia cards? Try a lower resolution than bump up and experiment with the AA and AF, also try to work with the rest of the driver settings.
One of the aspects I observed on the performance issue was that when on a level with a heavy(and long) flashback scene the fps were dramatically decreased. So I think that's one of the major problems - the flashback/present environment corelation.

Yes. I play Crysis@high at this resolution without any problems, just like all my other games. The HD4850 is a powerfull card, you know...? And, as long as I know, nVidia cards don't perfom well in this game too.


Well, I'm very pleased to heard a patch is in development. just can't wait for it's release.
