  1. Fallout 4 is a whole lot of fun, but I'm personally experiencing framerate issues (lack of Day 1 Patch??) and they're ruining my enjoyment of the game.

        1. @northernnarwhal No, I had therapy today, (which was a pleasant experience) and I'm glad I get to spend my time off with FO4.

          1. @bobo Yeah, getting to enjoy something you've been looking forward to is really cathartic

    2. @bobo How bad?

      1. @mrmattimation Whole lot of stuttering during the second half of my playtime, (memory leak?) full 5-10 second freezes at one point. I can post my specs, but to sum it up, they're a little over the PS4's in power.

        1. @bobo I've read that the game benefits from a reboot every now and again, but that was just for the console versions so I dunno if it'd work for you. I'm sure you've already tried.

          1. @mrmattimation Gonna check my version number to make sure I have the patch, Steam didn't download any updates while my VPN was active.

            1. @bobo OH YEAH, also, Beth released a patch pre-release based on input from reviewers and it greatly improved performance. You might not have that.

              1. @mrmattimation I can't find the proper version number anywhere, so I can't be sure. Gonna update my drivers, I remember that a certain AMD driver version boosted GTA V performance by a lot, maybe it's the same for this.

                1. @bobo @mrmattimation I also refuse to believe that the minimum specs are accurate, I can run a maxed-out GTA V config at 40fps with this rig, I'm sure it can handle FO4.

                  1. @bobo Can you post your specs? Genuinely curious.

                      1. @bobo @mrmattimation Looking back I think my GTA V config MIGHT have had shadows turned to Medium, but whatever. These specs are pretty much "minimum" for FO4, but again, calling bullkiwi.

                        1. @bobo If it's bugging you that much I'd just wait until the actual launch day to see if a patch fixes anything.

                          1. @mrmattimation I'll play on Medium until tomorrow, certainly.
