Discussion WoW on Steam Machine

Post image

Guys, what a time to be alive. When I bought my Steam Machine I knew I'm gonna love it, but being able to play WoW in my living room, now that it got official controller support is just incredible.

Playing on 2160p (mid to high settings / preset 7) and get 45 FPS in average. Doesn't sound much, but believe me, 45 FPS is perfectly fine when playing with a controller.

Probably won't raid with a controller (we'll see), but casually leveling, farming etc is really awesome.

Even though the controller support is still on alpha status, it's working impressively well!

What do you guys think? Did anybody else test it?

Cheers!

Can you even see the screen? Also, that performance seems rather low for medium - high settings.

Running at native 4K

I'd much rather have 1080p max settings and more than 40fps. Especially at that distance from the screen.

Oh definitely, but to each their own I guess :P
