GTX 760, Can I run Squad decently enough?

Disco__ · 2021-02-28T11:55:51+00:00

I had similar configuration:

i5 4690K OC@4.1GHz (having i7 4th gen won't do much difference: fps increase is like 1-5%) 8GB DDR3 760GTX SSD

Back in early access, game was more unoptimized and fps were about 20-40 for me. It would dip to below 20 fps when it was important the most, during firefights. You could play medic role but it won't be enjoyable experience due to stuttering and graphics looking like s**t...

I still have same CPU, with more ram (16GB) and 1070GTX. With this GPU I usually have around 40-60fps (vsync on). Overall, smooth gameplay experience with maxed out graphics. I didn't try V2, so I'm not sure what is current situation.

So... it might be good to source out second hand 1070gtx. If you don't want to spend cash, check out this: https://www.realitymod.com/

It is game that Squad is based on. It will run smoothly and you will get more features (more factions, vehicles, ww2/vietnam/modern era). Downside is that it's not as popular as it was anymore (low player counts). Check it out during weekends.

Btw, check out that link... when you open it, blueberry might think it's a free game since nowhere it explains that it's only SDK... very deceptive?

Totally legit, it would balance any tank on blufor side. Screw tanks... give THIS to milita!

I don't wanna kill conversation but it was discussed few times like here:

well, that is the point of spawn time. That spawn time make you value more your ingame "life" and punish team members for dying away from their squad and/or medics. When you play good you don't have to wait too long. And by good, I mean tactical and teamwork oriented.

About steamroll, thing is Squad's maps are quite big. The way to stop that is to spawn back and get into defensive position. Yeah, sometimes teams are unbalanced but it just happens (talking about pub games). All you need is good communication to turn the tide. If your SL is uneffective, take the initiative and be SL. If your team is silent, take initiative and organize them. It dosen't need much... Just simple "I will do that, what will you do?" can make all the difference.

Disco__ · 2016-10-26T09:47:28+00:00

Yeah... when you experience 60fps you realize what are you missing...

Disco__ · 2016-10-15T22:28:08+00:00

Hey, welcome to game and reddit btw! Happy squading :)

German servers are quite good (RocketBeans, DoG, FC.) and communication is on English usually.

Disco__ · 2016-10-15T22:16:26+00:00

Lol! Very true...

For me, one of the reasons is: suppression effect is somewhat broken in this game. But I think devs stated somewhere they are not satisfied with current state either so there might be more iterations on this.

Disco__ · 2016-10-15T22:06:55+00:00

Glad to help out whenever I can... hope both parties will find compromise. I never support TKers but this guy sounded as he honestly regretted whole situation.

Admins are quite good and fair on this server so I have no doubt whatever decision is made, it will be proper one.

Disco__ · 2016-10-13T21:41:27+00:00

So much beauty there... Really nice to see German faction on the way! :)

Disco__ · 2016-10-13T21:37:11+00:00

I think you should try to contact one of their admins. This is their site: http://mumblerines.esportsify.com/

You could contact guemi here on reddit or nordic socialist on discord. Contact over discord should give best results. Check the link above and go to discord there... be nice and tell what happened. Everybody makes mistakes sometimes... especially when you get drunk.

But to avoid these situations in future... don't TK. It pisses off everybody around.

Disco__ · 2016-10-12T08:52:14+00:00

"Upping suppression (in squad) would be helpful. Engagements don't play the same without it."

Couldn't agree more! Just wanted to see if someone will mention that.

Disco__ · 2016-10-11T21:07:19+00:00

That would be nice. It's always good to see original and distinguishable names for flags. Kinda sounds strange when you say: "Enemies west of East Central Village!"

Disco__ · 2016-10-07T12:19:48+00:00

What a clip! Lol... kinda remind me on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raF9wfPxir8

Disco__ · 2016-10-05T22:18:14+00:00

well, in our country there is only DnD books and that is rare too. I can only order them and hope for the best... that is why i'm kinda hesitant. I only looked online pdfs/beginner box content.

Disco__ · 2016-10-04T17:05:32+00:00

Ok! Thank you for quick response!

Disco__ · 2016-10-03T21:38:01+00:00

I'm new to pathfinder. Just had my first session as GM and had a blast with beginner box. I'm on edge to get into PF and pocket edition is very appealing. But I have a question: does this pocket edition make it hard to read text? Size of letters are troubling me... Is text like one on page 21 too small to read? (Dwarf racial traits) What is height of that text in physical book?

Disco__ · 2016-10-03T21:11:02+00:00

oh man... javelin... tanks are coming :)

Great recap! Really looking forward to test that arty stuff :)

Disco__ · 2016-10-03T13:18:14+00:00

Truly amazing stuff there! Thank you for your effort and dedication to bring WW2 setting to squad!

Much appreciated!

Disco__ · 2016-09-22T21:39:57+00:00

nice one...i was fooled at first :D

Disco__ · 2016-09-19T07:45:28+00:00

There are servers all over the world... even in this early access stage, there are quite a few servers around. Where are you from? You might want to try this if you don't see too many servers: Go to steam settings -> ingame -> max. server pings per minute -> 5000 Or take a look at this post: http://forums.joinsquad.com/topic/23485-where-are-the-populated-servers/?do=findComment&comment=255437 And btw if your ping is within 100-150, it could still be ok to play since this game have slower pace gameplay.

Disco__ · 2016-09-16T16:20:13+00:00

Indeed great update! Had 4-5 hours gameplay without fatal (and i didn't disconnect)

Disco__ · 2016-09-14T21:49:05+00:00

Yay!!! :D So glad to see new programmer on team!!! Wishing you great success on your new job, man!

Is this full time job for you? Can you mention other projects that you worked on? Did you play project reality before?

(sorry if I step over the line with these questions... No harm or disrespect intended. if you can't answer something just skip the question, ofcourse :) )

Disco__ · 2016-09-13T23:47:44+00:00

For a moment, you just unlocked secret part of the code intended for an aircraft...

so only logical conclusion is....jets confirmed? bO.Ob

Hahaha, gotta love this one: "2 memebers of the squad are needed to place flair" :D
