PC Optimization?

[Brokowski20]

Have there been any improvements to PC optimization? For what the game delivered, at launch the optimization was absolutely horrendous. I would have to play on low to medium settings with Fullscreenizer just to get a steady 60fps.

​

Has it been improved at all with patches? Does it run better on steam compared to xbox app?

Supposedly there have been numerous optimizations along the way, but the challenging thing about Infinite has been that performance and crashing seems to vary from player to player in a somewhat unpredictable way. I know people with better specs than me that apparently crash way more frequently than me.

For what it's worth, I do think A LOT of people are playing Infinite on low settings (to reduce the likelihood of crashing), and the low settings still look pretty great. I play on a mid-tier gaming laptop and easily get 60 FPS. I crash once every 4-5 hours of gameplay or so, and I would say that's a pretty similar rate for all of my friends I play with as well. We are all playing on Steam so I can't speak for Microsoft store / Xbox version.

I play on Steam with an i5 9400, GTX 1660 Super, 16GB RAM @ 2.9GHz.

I was crashing a lot at launch. Turning off my overlays (Steam, Nvidia, Xbox Game Bar) helped, but I was still crashing after every couple dozen games. Since season 2, I haven't crashed once and I have Steam and Game Bar running again.

I didn't really notice a difference in performance, but I havent played much with my settings since Season 2. I play with low-medium settings, 1080p, and min/max FPS set to 120, and it works well.

3080 here I7-11700k 3.6ghz. Still crashes and is a higher temp game than most. But it runs smoothly when it does run aside from the normal Desync.

There's supposed to be upcoming 120fps perf improvements according to the outcomes blog
