    NS2 is a self published PC only game, that's why

    Yes I know that, but I would of thought little easter eggs like this wouldn't of been such an issue. But what do I know.

    Super disappointed this apparently won't run on my system. Looks like I may need to get a new machine soon or maybe look into the console versions.

    Bad streaming is bad. Seriously I can run Crysis 3 on basically fullest settings but keep getting loading spikes when playing this.

    I had some stuttering as well, and my rig can run Metro 2033 on ultra without any problem save for one or two areas.

    I find that really weird, because I am running it at 1080p, on ultra mode dx11 and I get 40/50 FPS, sometimes i feel it drops to 30 when in combat. (I have vsync and AA off tho, I dont feel those add to my experience, and they are really expensive on performance)

    Weird part is, my machine is getting old actually, I only updated to a GTX560ti a year ago or something to give it a bit more life span, so I'm very surprised how well it runs. Boarderlands2 doesn't run this well, i actually had to drop resolution to 1280*900 on that game to have it running smooth.

    For those having stutering issues, it is a known problem, not sure if they are going to fix it but you can fix it yourself, just increase the PoolSize for textures.

    Bioshock Infinite Stutters and Freezes in-gameGo to commonBioshock InfiniteEngineConfig and open BaseEngine.ini. Search for ‘PoolSize’ and set the value higher, depending on how much available RAM / VRAM you have available. We increased the value to 512 and some of the stuttering seems to have vanished.

    Yeah issue is definately a RAM one, it clearly doesn't load in very much (I mean like 1 street), so it repeatedly has to load, every time I enter a new building/street it stutters for a second or so. I guess ill increase that RAM amount.

    niccuh plz. 2560x1600, full everything fuck your grafixx shit runs at 60 of these fps's people are raving about on the streets these days.

    so i just finished this and it starts so fucking well, the gunplay and combat and pacing is divine, really well put together, it starts to fuck up towards the end though - feels like the less experienced designers were working on some of the later levels or they didn't have the time to devote narrative resources to really keep a good pacing / balance going on.

    but holy shit, what a game. really enjoyable on all counts. 2 gun limit and poor selection of vigours sort of ruined some things. i think the game is a genuine 10/10 though, lots of small annoyances (running through a room spamming F got a bit boring) but nothing that really ruined the experience or made me want to stop playing.

    i'd recommend this to anybody, even if it;s for the last 20 minutes, i spent that time with my jaw open and filled with a kind of child-like glee, eyes glazed just soaking up the fan service and twists. holy shit.

    Does anyone have experience with Catalyst Control Center or a 3rd party application like Radeon Pro?

    I wanna get Vsync triple buffering working cos the tearing is horrible but it doesn't seem to override the ingame settings :s

    Man, even a couple of days after finishing it I still can't stop thinking about it, so incredibly rare that games leave you with this feeling.
