AMD is working on Project Cars Performance Issues

[WYP]

Slightly Mad Studios' says that "Nvidia has not paid us a penny" for AMD's performance issues in project Cars. AMD is working on driver fixes.

As much as I want to hate on AMD for this... I find it hard to believe due to...

Regardless, this need to be fixed. A 660Ti is faster than a 290X ffs...

If game developers actually knew how to code a game, driver optimisations wouldn't be needed every time a new friggin game releases...

That's not how it works.

I guess they were too busy screwing around making Free-Sync not quite work for the past few months.

Nvidia bias maybe? They've been quoted in Nvidia PR stuff/presentations for ages on how 'fanatstic' Nvidia are to work with.

I mean, AMD have been lazy in the past but (excluding gameworks games) when was the last time this happened?

each time something like this happens people just want a scapegoat.
An ingame logo in the game is proof of nothing.

What is treu is that nvida has been following recent releases more then usual in hope of boosting pc gaming in general.

Also this game runs great on the consoles wich are all amd so the step to amd based pc's should be smaller then to nvidia based pc's.

anyway game realease the lat years have been bad most of the time and then the allmight patch comes out and it runs great for everyone, have a little patients and all wil be good

wait what?

the game is buggy as all hell on both consoles..
More so graphically on the ps4. and inconsistent frame rates..
So you cant really say that..

personally i was getting perfectly acceptable frame rates on my amd card. but would welcome being able to crank up a few settings..

The game its self i dont think i will playing that much.. Its basically forza on the pc so i will be sticking to asetto corsa i think. But at least i only paid £23.33 for it.

as for nvidia and amd..
The game devs say "but i dont know how much i trust them any more" They sent amd 12 keys for testing and optimizing but amd never bothered with it.
Nvidia on the other hand did..
still i dont see it as much of an issue compared to the fact that its not a sim like they said it was.

doesn't it alwasy go this way, every time a game performs bad on amd hardware everyone blames devs/nvidia for sabotage, if game runs crappy on nvidia no one cares, besides nvidia has been supporting them for a pretty long time as i remember, if amd ignored them as they say why the surprise, it's not their job to make amd want to optimize drivers for their game, and since amd has not denied it is there really any more questions/discussion to be had here, it is obvious whats happened...

It does work.. go get an AMD card that works with it and a Freesync Monitor.

I couldn't tell ya the last time it did. I know Dying Light was a recent example of how Nvidia screws AMD over..

Because it happens often enough to do so. Called Gameworks. Just because they haven't talked doesn't mean AMD simply stopped working on the game. Plus the guy never said when he gave them the keys. If it was recently then obviously they don't have enough time to fix it. Now if he sent them keys back in Oct then that's a different story.

I said making it not quite work, ie. with Crossfire support.

And I do have an AMD card for which I have already bought a monitor. Spending an extra £300 for one with Free-Sync support doesn't make much sense, nor is it particularly 'free'. I suppose you could argue it would be 144Hz rather than 60Hz but with the best possible configuration of AMD cards that support Free-Sync, a single 290X you'd do well to crack 60fps with any decent settings which makes it all a bit pointless in my opinion.

20 keys of the game is hardly much help. That's unlikely to be what they typically work with to optimize for a game...

All of this ^ +9999

All the advertising and polished renders made this look miles better than it was actually ever going to be, and a SIM it ain't.
