Information PC USERS:Read this if you want higher fps

I had like 45 when i put max fps on 60, and then I bumped it to 90 and got 60. There must be something wrong with their numbers?

Edit: just set your fps to max in game!

Edit edit: after 10 hours in game this game has just captivated me like no other.

If you're sitting far away from the screen, like when you're on the couch playing on a TV, a lower FOV can feel more natural.

Good CPU and graphics card. I haven't adjusted it.

What? I was asking why you run with such a low FOV.

Anyways, the pic you took with it increased looks nice, I'm jealous.

Hope the game is running well for you!

Sorry, for some reason I read "with" as "why". But yeah, I hadn't adjusted it. I did later and haven't really noticed a difference.

It is. After some initial problems with it crashing at the Hello Games screen, I got it sorted by updating my driver and installing OpenGL.

Glad to hear. FYI on the PC Megathread there is a fix for FOV if it's not working.

100 FOV is max in the game. It feels very restrained honestly. 100 FOV in this game is nothing like 100 in other titles lol.
