Tripwire Interactive Forums
Hey !
First of all, congratulations on Tripwire for all the hard work so far and being so close to its community. Been trusting you since Red Orchestra 1 and haven't been disappointed so far. Bought Killing Floor 2 as soon as it showed up on Steam, been waiting for the early access eagerly.
With the "early access" and "beta" parts in mind, let me explain my experience so far.
1. Performance are terrible on my laptop.
Let's start off with the specs :
Intel i5-3210M @ 2.5ghz
AMD HD7670M 2gb
4gb DDRIII of ram
I switched to the main GPU in AMD's drivers, so it's not using the Intel HD chip.
I'm running everything on low (as in, everything turned off, even the textures are set to low), 1280*720 resolution. I'm getting very bad FPS (20-30, dropping lower than 10fps at times). It's playable, but nowhere near enjoyable.
I'm aware the GPU isn't great, yet considering I'm running RO2, BF4 and other games at a very stable and comfortable framerate, I didn't expect KF2 to run that bad.
I'm going to try on my old desktop computer as soon as I can, it is running on a C2D E8400 @3ghz, AMD HD4870 @2gb and 4gb of DDRII Ram. I'll report back to you.
If anyone has any tip to boost the performances (.INI tweaks), please tell me.
2. Sound Stuttering
I've been lurking the threads, seems like I'm not the only one experiencing this. My sound stutters as soon as a the wave starts and people start firing. I had to turn off the sound so I don't burn my ears.
Tried lowering and upping Windows' sample rate, doesn't do anything. Waiting for a fix.
3. Various bugs
-Chat doesn't work in the in-game lobby (not matchmaking).
-Couldn't connect to single server in the server browser, match-making took a lot of time (but I guess that's because of the day one peak)
-Match-making doesn't show if you are looking for a server, rest of the group sees it as "host modifying game options" or something along the lines.
-Game once had me in "spectator mode", I was basicly spectating myself. Nothing game breaking but couldn't get rid of the spec HUD while playing just fine.
I guess that's it, good luck and keep up the good work. Here's hoping my performances are going to improve with the next update.
