It ran at 25-30 fps for me on a hd6870 at release, and still did so when I checked again 3 months after release.
That is not 'fine,' broken ass game is broken.
Next you'll tell me homefront ran fine at release for the average person.

I'd be down for playing the RAGE DLC, but reinstalling 17 gigs...

Nobody has given me good reasons to play it, just a bunch of lies.
Runs 45-60 on my 5850.

Because the game is punishingly tough, yet REWARDINGLY satisfying. And the art style is second to none.
Because you have lost faith in modern AAA RPG BS like Mass Effect and Final Fantasy XIII and want a game that not only reminds me you how some of the best games you grew up with used to play, but shows you the way that future games should be.
It requires patience, dedication, and respect. It's one of the best games ever made.

Just bought Rage, but is the DLC also worth a buy?
It should run better for what it is given the hardware, period.
Is this a real question? 60fps is a slideshow in comparison.
It ran fantastic on my HD 6850. You are wrong here dude.
Sorry about that AMD.
what is ''fantastic'' exactly?
I don't settle for anything less than 240fps.

It was 2 freaking cents. While I realized it was absurd, I felt like if I didn't get it at the absolute cheapest price I'd be stuck with the feeling that someone got one over on me.
Due to my diligence, I can sleep like a baby tonight.
Broke it with some weird Unicode error?!
WTF
One sec
Edit: Okay fixed so it's good to go. Send again without the "TM" symbol in the game name, I'll fix the bug that caused it tomorrow morning. Thanks.
Yeah, I figured that might have been it, or the extra "-" .. that'll teach me to cut and paste
Thanks again!

You didn't check the steam Dark Souls store page carefully did you
Haha, noooooo I guess I didn't. They really couldn't have been much more clear, huh?

We've been through this. You'll also notice that a handful of AMD GPU users chimed in after that post, saying they experienced no issues. It's no secret that the game didn't play well with AMD hardware at and soon after release, but patches and driver updates solve nearly all such cases, and SR3 falls into this category.
Not a good reason. Although I'll admit that I've never finished Demon's Souls because it doesn't have a PC version.

Well if you want to play with friends you'll have to go with Anno, as Tropico is single-player only. Anno is more of an RTS, where Tropico is more like Sim City. Also Tropico is kind of wacky where Anno is rather serious.
I think I got that all right, anyway. Personally I think Tropico is pretty cool.
I've only played a tiny bit of both, but you can't go wrong with either. Anno has better production values, but it's a bit more overwhelming to begin. Tropico 4 is much easier to ease into based on what I've played so far.
It is for me. If my connection goes (like it always does), I lose the ability to save my game.
Until I get a better internet connection, I'm not touching it.
DSFix has autosaves and backups!

Yes, real question. Anything beyond 60 FPS doesn't really do much for me, honestly. I think there's a certain point where the gain I get from FPS just plateaus. I just think some people are more sensitive than others in terms of frame rate; I guess I'm just not one of them.
No slowdowns in 1080p? I don't have an FPS counter up all the time.
Have you tried 120fps on an actual 120Hz screen?
This game sometimes goes around 50 fps when i'm cruising, most people wouldn't call that a slowdown, still does not mean it's running ''fantastic''.
Just have to fuck with the INIs a bit.

Ubisoft is such a joke. That price point is ridiculous.
It really frustrates me that they have IPs I want to play like Far Cry and Watch Dogs. Then they have horrible pricing and UPLAY.
No shit.
Hmm, I thought I had installed DSFix. I'll try reinstalling it.
Damn, now I have no excuse.
agh im not lookin forward to installing the game again for Scorchers and having to deal with all that
The lack of steamworks integration in ubi titles sucks.
120 fps on a 120Hz screen can be pretty damn weird to look at.
Don't they have settings for that now?
Glorious is the word you're looking for.

Yeah, of course; just not on my own rig personally as I'm still using an older Samsung monitor--it would be moot otherwise if it wasn't 120 Hz! I'm the type that's personally fine with a flat 30 or 60 FPS as long as there are no fluctuations with 60 FPS being preferable. Anything above that hasn't really been noticeable to me.

It also has terrible, terrible DRM. So no, you really should not get it.
Which is always a big shame every time I see it on sale.
Shouldn't have uninstalled it. Shouldn't have gotten that new PC. Ya jerk. John trusted you.
I just screenshotted Rage in 4K at maximum settings a few months ago and didn't see any such options. Had to set the 16K value in the INI myself. Didn't look any better, though, that's been pretty clearly established in the past.
That must be really hard for you. I'm sorry.
