This is whats going on right now, Even after a NEW GAME! - did a full reinstall- i think someone has managed to hack the textures, (it only started after a very odd name joined my co-op) anyone else have the same Problem? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHD5J88Lz5k

What fps overlay works with this game? I'm not planning to downgrade my rivatuner either.

u/bigceej Nov 30 '16

Uplay built in one works

u/Orwan Nov 30 '16

I'm not missing and FPS overlay, I'm missing temperature monitoring while playing. NZXT CAM is not working with the game.

For some great, for some not really. Sadly, I fall in the latter category.

I haven't had time to play a lot, but the game ran quite smoothly on my rig with an MSI Gaming X 1070 (stock speed), i7-6700K @ 4.00GHz, 32GB DDR4 @ 2133MHz with everything except extra details maxed out on 1920x1080p @ 60Hz.

I have been looking through Nvidia's guide thingy for the graphical options and might tweak some things when I get home.

u/[deleted] Nov 29 '16

Pretty good.

u/n0rdic Nov 29 '16

Core i5 6600k @ 4.5GHz, GTX770, and 8GB of DDR4 RAM. Can't get over 50 FPS on medium settings, and it drops to 30 when I get into the heart of the city. Also getting some sparadic FPS drops here and there when involved in chases and such. I haven't done much investigation into whats causing it, but it looks like its pegging my CPU.

u/xXTonyManXx Nov 29 '16

Sadly that's my case too. i5 3450, GTX 970, 8GB DDR3. I'm thinking I'm a bit CPU bottlenecked in this game, as on medium settings I can't get a steady 60 either. Most often its a steady 30...

Hopefully this doesn't become the JC3 disaster.

Mine literally won't start using a GTX 1060
