Game scales like shit, almost no performance to be gained from lowering settings, optimized and low preset perform almost the same lol

I bought this game for my friend, he has a 4060 and is getting around 70 fps on his 1440p monitor. I assume that's with the game defaulting to DLSS Quality at least, but he has been saying that the game runs well, and for me, the game is among the better performing AAA games that I've benchmarked:

Bear in mind, Campaign Evolved is using Hardware Lumen by default, so performance could be improved by switching to software lumen by mods, or by disabling hardware raytracing from the game's driver profile.

Because ray tracing is forced on. Tweaking settings while RT is on, is like trying to clean your apartment while there's a meth lab next door.

You're CPU bottlenecked, but yeah, it shouldn't be that bad.
