There should be another separate version for Low-End PC users. The reason is that this game is free and about 50% or 60% of Players have Low-End PCs so they cannot run the game smoothly. I have read a lot of forums and a lot of Players said that they were using an i3 processor and still having to play on 20-25 FPS. I think the reason behind this is DirectX 11. I have an AMD Radeon HD 7570 it supports DirectX 11.2 and it struggles to keep up.
Low settings in this game don’t look much different from high settings. You can’t even adjust rendering range, so PC specs aren’t a huge deciding factor here.
Where did you even get that statistic?
Probably steam hardware surveys, which account for all PCs in general and not the Enlisted playerbase.
Steam says 750 tis and 960s are still common GPUs, and the 1060 is the most common.
Though I am not really like this game. But if you willing to play any modern 3D games, you should at least get a GTX750/R7 260 and better GPU. Also this game at lower FPS dosent need CPU performance at all! Also even a i3 1115G4 or R3 4300U is well enough for this game.
For those who still want to play games with outdated PCs, seek DX9 games or 2D games.
I just bought a R5 5600U tablet PC, can still runs at 30FPS at mid-low settings at 1080p. Which is a pretty great result.
Also your HD7570 (wtf not the classic HD7750?) is really outdated. Come on, its even a renamed HD6570, before the classic GCN “forever” architecture. HD7570 was not a target for gaming even at 2012.
Even now GPU price is skyrocketing, buying a GTX950 isnt that expensive.
Also if you are stuck at LGA115x with i3, buying a 2nd hand i5 is also very cheap.
Also for what I defined low end PC: i3 6100 with GTX750ti(2GB). If you didnt bought SKU higher than i3 and GTX, like Pentium or GT, you should know your PC is not for 3D gaming.
I played Enlisted on an old I7 3770 and GTX 950 and had no real problems, usually sat around 45-60 fps.
Thanks for the advice! But in my country, the price of Graphics Cards is really high, and especially for GTX 750ti it is 137.52$ American Dollars and 172.29 Canadian Dollars and yes I completely agree that the AMD Radeon HD 7570 is not a Gaming Graphics Cards. I live in an Asian country and the currency here is pretty bad compared to US dollars so it’s pretty expensive in our country. I am getting 25-30 FPS using an AMD Radeon HD 7570 and a Core 2 Quad Q6600 with 6GB ram so its not a gaming rig still i am getting good FPS but the stuttering is really bad cause of the Graphics Card
The steam surveys are not reliable as vast majority of steam players are f2p gamers with half of them being CS:GO. To get a better picture you need a full survey, which is not available for free.
What? 137 USD for a GTX750ti? OMG…
In my region (China), a GTX 750ti (2GB) is only cost at 80USD. While the best value card for now–GTX960 (4GB) is only at 130USD.
Also Q6600… (My “backup” PC has a better Q9650 than this)… You should consider to buy a i3 10100F+H410, which shouldnt cost much (<150USD total, +8GB DDR4 RAM), but at great value.
Btw, the “low spec” version of War Thunder ended pretty badly. While it would be cool to get more players, it shouldn’t happen by means of creating a game that just stops rendering foliage, fences, grass or complete houses. They is not much you can do beyond that for optimization.
We’re also talking about the resale market here, so prices are unpredictable.
