You could force borderless window mode.
Wait what, capping increases load times? How is that even possible hahahah
I have already noticied that in other games.
It already runs borderless for some reason. And if I do that I lose g-sync.
edit:
Am I the only person here whose game is locked at 30 fps? I also can't find any way to disable v-sync. It's always alternating between 20 and 30 fps. I really need some help here.
Not to be mean, but the game was pretty clear about that detail. I think it's acknowledged more than once. The party themselves acknowledge it.

Just booted this up to give the new patch a try.
getting 58 FPS (heh 58) but i'm getting stuttering every 3 seconds in cutscenes no matter what i put the games settings at even though there's no FPS drops present it's just stuttering now what happened?? is there a way to fix this I can't play it like that it'll drive me mental.
AMD 7950 BTW

Far, far after the fact it was supposedly set up. Mind you, I posted that when I'd just finished that chapter 9 and going through the data logs,
it was meant to be a trap from the very beginning, the logs position it as if everything was Dysely's plan. The only thing that could point to a trap throughout that chapter is the fact that the power went out. Everything else is more directly painted as Dysely just doing his job as the Fal'cie/Primarch. Raines does spell it out for you afterwards in chapter 10/11.

Just wanted to drop by and say thanks for this OT. Made me give the game a shot and join the GAF community. Peace to everyone still here.
Also, the game was pretty damn good imho.

When you say "always", do you mean in the same session, or after you close the game and start again?
They honestly should have given you the combat mechanics from the getgo, instead of spreading the tutorial out over 15-30 hours
You mean like Mordor ? (haven't played it yet) D:
can you record videos ? :O
For the import goodies for having a ff13 save

Problem is, it isn't a tutorial. This game is more about gameplay intertwined with story. People misinterpret this when the story doesn't cater to their interests or they don't like the characters.
Objectively it's not a bad game at all. Personal tastes factor far more into people enjoying it or not. You can't reasonably expect all games to handle game mechanics, integration with the vision of the game,pacing of introduction of mechanics the same. Let alone whether the game is more focused on providing a more coherent story/gameplay experience rather than a purely objective player driven gameplay affair.
^ Key example.
More like the last hour or so is something straight out of a shitty anime/movie. That whole dialogue between Vanille, Fang and subsequently the rest of the crew? Soppy as hell and uneeded really. I actually liked the idea of the boss and his motivations too, except pretty much that entire interaction of what should have been an awesome fight got dragged down by your typical friendship and love bullshit, which we already got 2-3 times in earlier chapters.
It's how they chose to handle and deliver it, not just the ending actually but the entire game in general. There's too much there to pass it all along in just cutscenes and what they chose to show you is often poorly directed imo.

Giving more credence to the 30FPS Theory, take a look at this shit.
Graphing with a 100ms polling rate, just standing still even, (Capped to 60FPS with RTSS), every so many fixed frames, there is a spike to ~33ms
Compare this to Killing Floor with the same polling and 60FPS cap

I can try but it's not butter smooth with my settings (everything maxed out), I'll see what I can do.

Just let me say that I was quite surprised by my data after all the pre/post patch performance reports in various forums

I don't think your 'lock to 30 fps for smooth gameplay' suggestion holds water - I did so and was getting frequent drops to 15 fps (with less than 50% CPU & GPU utilization during these).
Yeah when the game was released and people got to Chapter 3 many stated that they had lots of FPS issues in the area.
I could spend hours taking screens of this game.. The background in Oerba is insane.

Arriving to Oerba still gets to me. I took many pics when I got there.
At first, when I saw the modern tech and signs, I was thinking if it was a connection to XV. hehe
I tried something quick but the compression is killing it.

So much temptation n_n
I'm this close to pushing the purchase button on FFXIII on the SE store.
How is the performance of the game so far by itself?
What about with Durante's fix?

I've already played the PS3 version and enjoyed it - but I wanna get the Steam version (cause I like it that much) mainly for recording purposes and taking screenshots (and to enjoy the game again).
Should I...jump in now :O?
My PC...isnt really special or anythin...but I can play most of the games I have at 60 FPS.

You'll definitely should be able to keep a stable 1080p30 (options tweaking at your discretion) Though I will say the game hasn't been nice to AMD CPUs though most of those reported CPUs have been the FX series

You see those small Cie'th in Oerba, especially around the humanoid looking ones?
The little ones are children and the humanoids are their parents or teachers/guardians.
I never thought about this... It's amazing how everytime I play this game from the start I always notice new details.

Hmm I still have until the 27th to decide....
I'm also planning to get/build a new rig maybe next year or so.
Going Nvidia GPU/Intel CPU though so hopefully for the best ;x.
