So despite the patch being out, the game still runs like ass on my laptop.

 

Setup:

GeForce GT 750M

i7-4800MQ CPU @ 2.70GHz

8.00 GB RAM

 

At absolute minimum settings, I get about 25 FPS, whereas anything above Medium drops to between 12 and 18. Which is exceptionally odd when the suggested settings are High.

 

I've updated drivers, I installed the patch, I fully scanned for viruses, I disabled the Origin overlay in-game, I made certain the game was running with the Nvidia card and not the integrated graphics card, and STILL absolutely no change in performance. 

 

Have the gods cursed me? Why does this not run well?!

 

 

Edit: I've recently learned that my specs are actually a lot crappier than I had thought. This is a huge bummer, but I don't fault anyone but myself. Ugh...

^ your CPU isn't that bad, but your GPU is severely underpowered for this game unfortunately. 

[areuexperienced]

In case laptop usability is of interest to anyone:

 

I played a bit last night (levelled up once) on a Dell XPS 17 (8GB, i7, nVidia GT 550 M graphics chip) that's a few years old (90% sure those are the laptop specs - if you were planning on buying a used laptop with those chips let me know and I'll double-check, otherwise don't rely on this!), and except for shiny hair (which I've read elsewhere on here I have to adjust "mesh" for, thanks to those who gave that info) I was satisfied with performance and appearance even on relatively low graphics settings, but high resolution (1920x1080).

Just ran through this thread, most of you seem to have at least recent-ish rigs (I'm not really up to date with hardware info). I'm running a 3-year old laptop and am thinking of buying the game but I'm worried that it won't run  . It's a Dell Inspirion 5110, specs are:

Video: GeForce GT 525M (1GB RAM)

CPU:  Intel® Core™ i5-2410M CPU @ 2.30GHz

RAM: 6 GB

 

My aim is to play on low, my resolution is 1366x768 and 720p. Has someone been running the game on a similar setup?

If ANYONE using AMD GPU, use RadeonPro to force V-sync & Triple buffering. The stuttering still present with latest patch & AMD OMEGA driver

[Metalunatic]

Anyone else having screen tearing issues when using forced vsync from Nvidia Control Panel? They mostly come up during cutscenes, but it's very noticable.

 

Wouldn't have any need to use Nvidia's vsync, but for some reason alt-tabbing from the game and back makes my fps lock to 30 when viewing certain landscapes. Literally sometimes turning around the camera makes the fps jump back to 60, it's very strange and I've never had this sort of problem in other games.

 

Playing on fullscreen mode btw -- windowed fullscreen gives reduced performance in my case at least.

Any feedback on how the game would run on a GT 650M laptop gpu? My two year old laptop can run BF4 at high settings at a decent resolution, which makes me think it should be able to run DA:I as well. Just wondering if anyone here is running the game on a 650M and what type of performance they're getting.

Somewhere between medium and low is my best guess. You can look up benchmarks for Battlefield 4 to get a good idea.

[Crash Matrix]

I'm curious - I know there are command-line arguments available, such as:

  -GameTime.ForceSimRate 59.994 -GameTime.MaxVariableFPS 59.994 -GameTime.MaxSimFPS 59.994

(et all). Does anyone else have a more exhaustive list that I could play with?

My rig is certainly toward the bottom, but not all the way, of the minimum requirements:

• Athlon II X3 435 (2.9 GHz Tricore)
• 4 GB DDR2 RAM
• ATI Radeon HD 5400 (4 GB DDR3)

But, I still experience CONSTANT chops (anywhere from every 30 seconds to every 5 seconds), extremely long load times, choppy cut-scenes.

And, yes, I've removed all overlays, disabled my internet connection (sometimes an internet connection can cause games which connect to slow down), turned all the settings to low, my swap file is on a different partition but the same physical drive, and my windows performance settings are set to "Best Performance". I'm going to try to get an SSD drive just for DAI next week (since 40 bucks well spent can get one large enough to hold the game) - but, until then, I'm hoping there are other modifications that I can make to improve performance.

[Etragorn]

I'm fairly certain it's 59.94, not 59.994.

The "standard" field and frame rates are "23.976, 24.000, 29.970, 30.000, 59.940, 60.000"

It may seen trivial, but if you use 59.994 rather than 59.94 you could end up with some very subtle but extremely hard to track down judder, etc...

[UnrealEck]

I'm amazed you can even play on high. Your processor is ancient, you don't have the suggested amount of RAM, and your video card is mediocre sauce at the very best, more like weak sauce. Be grateful you can play it on high.

The i7 920 is still a capable and competent CPU, even for the latest games like DA:I and know heavily multithreaded titles like Crysis 3 and other CPU bound games like AC:U, moreso with an easily achievable overclock to around 4GHz.

His GPU is much more limiting than his CPU.

[syko188]

it's this, it's that, it's all a bunch of nonsense.  the fact is i was playing this game fine prior to the update.  now it's completely unplayable with stuttering and freezing every few seconds.  i didn't change anything on my computer.  BW's patch broke the game for me.  something in their code is interacting with my hardware/software in some manner that causes the game to perform that way.  i'm fairly certain they've also got a bad memory leak. 

 

there seems to be enough people with patch related, game breaking problems, so why no roll back?  is it really acceptable to allow days, perhaps weeks to go by with people unable to play the game they paid good money for?  i've never seen this happen before.  with as many people who have patch-related issues like this, i've always seen the game state rolled back to the previous version, while they iron out the kinks.  this is really unprofessional and i am fed up with the anti-gamer attitude BW has descended into.  

[Echelon5101]

So there's no way for me to roll back the game pre-patch? Nothing I've tried has done this, any time I reinstall/redownload the game it automatically patches it even if I have Origin set to NOT auto update. The game ran fine before, now it's unplayable.

[lvluffinz]

I think the game is pretty optimized. I'm getting about 45fps on my Y510P with GT 750M's in SLI. Tesselation is set to low, and everything else is on high except for Vegetation and Post-processing which are Medium and Low respectively. Running at 1080p. I've locked the fps to 30 with nvidiainspector though for stability otherwise it'd fluctuate in some places between 35-45fps.

[luckybaer]

I wonder what differences I'll notice going from an HD 6950 to a GTX 970?  Is there a worthwhile difference going from High settings to Ultra?

 

Outside of being able to run on Ultra settings, would load times improve?  Or, will load times be just as bad because instead of using High settings (which have slow load times on the HD 6950) I'll be stepping up to Ultra?

Not so much, the only limitation there is his graphics card, wich is the real bottleneck of his rig.

 

I have a similar CPU, an i7 930, 750 Ti and 12 GB RAM, and the game runs smoothly for me. Meshes on high, textures on high, everything else on medium except teselation, ambient occlusion and AA, wich they are on low/off.

[Pap1er]

On my Phenom II x4 965 @ 3,83GHz and Sapphire Radeon R7 280X VaporX game runs perfectly smooth with typical frame rate between 35~45 fps on ultra settings.

Only one thing is pretty anoying... ultra slow loading...

If you stepped down to high settings (I'm not suggesting that you do, I'm just framing up a question), would load times improve?

[ftbscreamer]

Has anyone checked their GPU usage? Seems to be worse in Skyhold where often I would be looking at a stuttering mess at 45 FPS and the GPU usage will be at 95%!? The GPU usage never reaches 100% or even 99% for that matter no matter what I do. Vsync on or off, change setting to low etc. 

 

Strangely enough, alt-tab-ing to desktop and back again fixes most of the stutter, up until you move to a different area :/ 

 

Also why does the mouse smoothing setting affect stutter??? Test this....use your keyboard to move the camera around your character...almost zero stutter, use the mouse...a stuttery mess :/

Erm, no.

 

Why would turning down graphical settings suddenly make your harddrive faster?

[eternalshiva]

I got from 45 FPS walking around / battles to 18 FPS in Cut scenes and skyhold skyhold to 12-15 in Redcliff. It's kind of crazy how effed the FPS can get no matter what I try to lighten up the load.

 

this might answer some problems though: http://answers.ea.co...highlight/false

Uh oh

[eastkaraturcompany]

The performance improved massively for me with the patch. Went from being generally 'ok' i.e. 30fps with redcliffe/crossroads having horrible fps... to 60fps mostly and only dropping to 30s in problem areas.

 

Whatever optimizations they did worked.

[ximena]

Rig:
i7-2600k 3.40ghz (rather old but still running pretty well)

GTX 970 4gb

8gb GSkill Sniper

 

Running the game on Ultra. I usually get 35-40 fps after the patch. When I got to play extensively last weekend, it CTD'd regularly. Apparently, the problem was Origin's cloud save syncing. I live in a country that doesn't have very good ISPs, so there are times the internet would drop meaning the cloud save syncing fails at times. When the sync fails, DA:I CTDs. Switched Origin to offline and played without any incident. When I switched to online mode, I turned off cloud saving. Didn't crash even once. 

 

As for the cutscenes, I haven't experienced any massive hiccups like I did pre-patch. 

 

The only area I'm having issues with is Skyhold though. Haha. 

 

Planning on switching to win 8.1 soon. 

[Timbeeer!]

Hello everyone! Can you guys help me out? I've been doing a lot of suggested fixes and still no dice. I normally don't post stuff like this 'cause I've never encountered any gaming problems that I couldn't fix with the help of Google. The thing is, whenever I try to play the game I suffer from VERY bad stuttering. I can't even walk around without looking like my inquisitor is doing the Robot and when I do get the chance to walk around it freezes for 5-10 seconds then lets me take 5 steps then it stutters again so badly then freezes again. Cycles just like that. My rig can run the game at 40-60FPS. 40ish at battles and 50-60 when just running around. Don't even get me started on the cutscenes. I just skip all of it 'cause if I don't it's like watching stop motion being filmed.

 

Specs

 

i5 2500k @ 3.9Ghz

Radeon HD 6850 1Gig

4Gig ram

 

Now, I know my PC isn't exactly up to par with everyone elses but I'm fairly confident that my rig can handle the game with the settings I'm using it with. I'm playing on Medium settings with Shadows turned low, AA turned off, Tesselation turned off,  Post Processing Quality Turned off, Ambient Occlusion Turned off, Post Process AA turned low. It's basically running on barebones yet I'm still getting crazy stutters. I noticed the game is really putting my CPU to work. 100% usage almost 70% of the time. I'm playing on 720p resolution. Heavy stuttering to the point that I can hardly play it and freezes randomly. The game looks amazing even at these settings btw. If the info helps, I can run Far Cry 4 at high settings at 60 fps easily. Mass Effect 1,2 & 3 without a hitch.

 

Off topic question: Is my i5 2500k Out dated? I mean, is it too weak for 2015 gaming? I know my GPU is but eh, that's life living in a 3rd world country, a gpu upgrade will cost me an arm or a leg lol. Sorry for the long post guys! 

[luckybaer]
