Max Payne 3 feedback?

[namelessonez]

For all those who have given it a shot, please leave your feedback so that those who are yet to play/ buy it can have an idea. Tell us how your experience has been so far. Also, list out your system specs so that we know how the game is handling on different rigs/ settings.

Perhaps this could help in having a consolidated thread in anticipation of future queries.

Nice, the picture before the last one looks sharp, no jaggies.

yeah, FXAA doing a good job, another thing, Vsync ON and i get lot of tearing, i tried to force it from nvidia's CP nothing, tried adaptive and still.. i guess they need to fix that in the next patch

I had the common issues reported in the 1.0.0.17 patch, upgraded to 1.0.0.20 but still waiting for the teams to come up with a solution 😀

Are you sure it's a tearing? cause this game is full of horizontal lines.

@recon, really? i dont have this problem with other games. i tried to change the Rrate to 50 but still

 

[RyQril]

@ilysaml, i have tearing and hr lines.. cant play it like this :SSS
@recon, 😛, am still trying to fix it, i tried to low the settings with low res and still...

is there anyone who doesn't have this problem?

 

[ilysaml]

I don't have a tearing, my FPS don't even jump to 50, most times are 42-43 max.
Do you exceed 60 FPS?

 

[RyQril]

yeah sometimes on cutscenes reaches 100~120 with Vsync off but during gameplay i get 50fps avg 24fps min

WHOAAA!!! That is simply HOT!! Darn good readings there! But tell me, according to the charts:

CHART 1 (Top): i73960@3.3GHz.+GTX670 = 100 fps No AA/ 50 fps 4xMSAA
CHART 2 (Bottom): i3-2100@3.1GHz+GTX680 = 90+ fps with No AA

I dunno, but kinda doesn't seem right.....its too good, but not right! The i3 with a 680 seems to be performing better (with no AA) than the i7 with a 670.

looks just fine to me, chart 1, 670 gets you 100 fps with no AA, chart 2, i3 puts you at 90+.

100 is still better than 90+, so I don't see how you concluded that i3+680 is better, and as far as anyone's concern 100 and 90+ is pretty much the same fps.

According to the charts, an i3 (dual core@3.1Ghz) coupled with a 680 was giving 90 while the i7 (quad core@3.3Ghz) coupled with a 670 was giving just above 100. I'm not saying that 100+ is not better than 90+, just that the 680 coupled with a weaker processor still seems to perform in the same ball park as the i7 with a 670. Anyhoo, just found it a bit wierd.

Coming back to the OP:
Finally managed to put in about 90 mins into the game. I saw a member saying that his FPS was increasing during cutscenes with a 670 and reducing during gameplay. Why am I experiencing the opposite?? During gameplay, its 100+ but in cutscenes its plummeting to 50's/ 60's. Anyone else experiencing this?

I'm loving the PhySx!! One of the best so far!

The great techspot team made a review of Max Payne 3 with a lot of cards benched

But the major disadvantage is that all tests ran without enabling MSAA.
