Hitman: Absolution

[Badmash]

Is this heavier on system then FC3? I am playing FC3 on ultra settings at 1080p. Possible to play this one too at same settings?

 

[gameranand]

^^ Yes you can.

I am too playing Far cry 3 @ ultra on 1080p with 35 to 50 fps . But Hitman is a fps eater game , on ultra setting it give about 20 fps . Turning of MSAA increase my fps by 10 .

 

[anirbandd]

^^ No its not.

damn. any patches?

Yes there are patches and they improve performance as well so if you are on vanilla version then updates might help.

Vanilla version means 1.00 version, completely untouched.

But 12GB for updates, seriously ?? I mean I would rather prefer to skip the game rather than downloading this patch. Damn its bigger than the game itself. Screw them.

12Gigs-update is Madness!

Exactly, I would rather download a new game from my steam account than updating this one with 12 GB update.

Won't Steam update the game, on start?
or can we disable the auto-update?

 

[gameranand]

Yes Steam would update on start.

Anand i'm playing this game currently and don't seem to find any performance issues that would require an update. Game is running butter smooth. I'm running it at medium settings with ssao , tesselation and fxaa on. Its giving me 45 fps in 1600x900. Game looks very good even at this setting and considering your pc's prowess, this will be a looker if you crank up the settings to the highest.

Currently playing "hunter and the hunted" level in hard difficulty. Game is very challenging and addictive in hard and i strongly suggest not to touch the easy or normal difficulty as they'll mar the challenging experience that hitman franchise brings. Giving me some old memories back from old (hitman contracts) days

@ vickybat
Thanks for this info. But the thing is what the hell are the developers doing by releasing patches with this size. I mean its simply unacceptable.

^check if those are the size of the genuine patches or the size or only the cracked and bloated patch from torrent sites

what the utility of making a game using dx11 if it cant perform better?? compare AC3 with HA... AC3 has dx11 too, and its buttery smooth, and real nice gfx too..

making a game with great gfx, yes it needs certain resources, but no point if it need xfire/sli, or high end gfx cards.. oh and HA is "optimised"
for AMD gfx... my a$$.

getting ~15FPS with ultra on 1024x768, and barely playable 25FPS on low on 1024x768. only a minimal fps rise. and add to that patches which are equal to the original game size.. disgusting. great job IOI and Sqare Enix.

wondering if i should play this anymore...
