@CaptnNemo Same as always with pre-unlocking games on Steam, you start up a standalone VPN, log into Steam, unlock the game, play the game, turn the VPN off. I doubt it works for Uplay, as everyone that got in early was on Steam, but it should be unlocking in a few hours on midnight.
---------------
The game itself is pretty fun, holy shit I love the possibilities to fuck around with the people in the game, I used the drive hack to crash a bike into a truck and he flew high up in the air  Or I made the police arrest some guards in a closed off area, then it escalated and a dog bit the police guys, shootings and else.
In between some guy wanted to kill me inside the clothing store, I stun gunned him twice and he got #rekt. Also found another who I knew by name from reddit who got a press copy, hacked him and hid right in front of his nose  Starting to get the Quadcopter now, should be fun.

It looks like it's yet another successful product of ubilol-nderpia collaboration
PS Both nvidia and amd have released new drivers for wd2.. but I doubt it will make much difference compared to these benchmarks.
1) Lenovo Legion 7 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3080 16Gb, 32Gb DDR4, SSD 1TB +2TB
2) SFFPC (streaming via Moonlight+ Sunshine)

On the detected settings my i7-3820/16 GB RAM/GeForce GTX 970 was managing a comfortable 58-60 FPS, and while FRAPS told me it was dropping down to the high 40s on rare occasions, I can happily say I didn’t really notice it. Lowering the settings a little raised this further, capping me out at 60 most of the time with occasional drops to about 54 when things got really busy. And, thankfully, dropping the details to Low gave me a constant 60. |
Is that the current definition of "running incredibly well", struggling to get 60fps in 1080p unless dropping to the lowest quality setting with a GTX970?

If I make a kwik account to buy this game on kwik, will it activate on my North American uplay account, letting me just run it from uplay without the need for steam like I can the other uplay games I've bought with Steam ?

I knew they were gonna shoot themselves in the foot for allowing settings beyond the ultra preset.
I already see people on steam forums crying, I can't max out wd 2 on gtx1070. but the guy plays at 1440 p with 8xMSAA allowing nubs to add MSAA in a dx11 title alone is suicide. not to mention that extra details slider that is at 0 even on ultra, but obviously, everyone will want it at 100% and choke their CPU.
You never let people go beyond the max in game preset. so many games made that mistake.

just a page or so back you can see a 970 does fine in this game at quite high settings.

What's that? If you are talking about Pixel density then it's the same shit as dynamic resolution. It should be set to 1 to render stuff at your native resolution.
Anyways, if it's just extra details a sin details and not resolution scaling then we still should be able to maintain 60 fps on 1070\1080 @1080p all things considered.

@h0rnyfavn This is a separate slider from Pixel Density, it's for incrementally increasing geometry level of detail for both near and distant objects.

nah, there is a setting called extra details. it's set to 0 even on ultra preset. It's very cpu an GPU hungry, and requires pixel hunting to even notice.

I dunno why they even included it if it murders FPS. same for txaa8x and msaa8x. exposing those settings to the end user was foolish on their part considering the performance of those settings at current GPU's.

yeah, it's no gta V/battlefield 1 when it comes to visuals vs performance ratio, but I see no reason to complain about a game with so many settings to tweak, and one that scales down with settings so well.
it's quite rare these days. If i had one complaint it would be that it's missing pedestrian and traffic density sliders.

I got the high-res pack, but how do you enable the ULTRA high res pack?

Is the HD texture pack makes sense for 970 ?
