760(on ultra), it's all that grass

Does the game render every single blade of grass?

it renders every blade of grass you see :upsetfavre:

shader quality is a performance killer. and what AA settings are you using?

This game was released in 2007, what kind of computers were they using to develop the game?

MS didn't even develop Dx10 then no?

it seems to be a fallacy to think that current hardware should be able to 'max' out whatever game. especially games that include 16xQ CSAA. PC games have options so you can scale them to your system, and make your own decisions about performance vs image quality

that 'ubersampling' (I think it's 4x SSAA) shyt in The Witcher 2 is a good example. it's an available setting, but the game wasn't meant to be played like that. it's really meant for taking pretty screenshots and such, but to this day you'll find people complaining about it's performance... because it's an old game and they spent $xxx on their gpu that can max out BF4, so there must be something wrong with this game :sadbron:

Are those any better over a DS3 or 360 Controller if you already own either?

I would think that the xbox controllers are still the best for PC games as its what developers put support into.

Has Microsoft released another statement about xbox one controllers being able to connect to the PC? They said "sometime" in 2014

you can change the location of your Programs Files folder

1.Start Registry Editor by entering “Regedit” in the search All programs.

2.Locate the following:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

3.Right click on the value named ProgramFilesDir & change the default value C:\Program Files to the path you want to install all your programs in.

4.Click OK and Exit.
