that looks like some poorly optimized craftsmanship, what with the abysmal fps in UHD... Then again I could be mistaken, but signs point to that imho. :cheers:

Garbage optimization with no multigpu. Ya let me go spend $1800 canadian to get 60fps in 1080p.

What a mess, bad performance on both sides.

TL;DR: Completely non-optimized* crap with lots of stuff emulated instead of actual porting. Dog-feeding PC gamers at its finest. * As opposed to poorly optimized.

Runs like crap, Looks like crap (512x512 textures), graphic presets barely change anything. Console crap shoved on PC.

With the new 1.01 Patch in effect we are free from 30 FPS caps, yes it is time to look at Mafia III, the Guru3D way. Multiple graphics cards are being tested and bench-marked with the latest cards suc... Review: Mafia III - VGA PC graphics performance benchmarks

HH, in 1440p test graph 380X is above 390X (switch them) 😉

Ah the 380X was tagged as 34 FPS where it is 24. Fixed thanks.

If your game only runs over 60 fps on a $1200 card at a lowly 1080p resolution, it deserves to fail on the platform. I hope pc gamers are refunding this en masse, this is just disgraceful.

One more game "optimized" by nvidia. It is clear that this is one of the ways they are trying to hurt competition, no SLI no Crossfire, so that only their best GPU can get acceptable frame-rate. You need 1300Euros GPU if you want to play new game with old generation graphics. Almost 2017 and we still have new AAA games on DX11, why? Nvidia knows that they are better at DX11. Consoles are not hurting PC games, nvidia is. So yeah, go ahead and buy their products and their sponsored games.

BS. This is completely on the devs totally f**king-up big time. Mafia 3 isn't even being advertised by Nvidia, certainly not a front-page game like GOW4. If anything, this game is developed with AMD console hardware in-mind, so, the abysmal performance is down to optimisations on crappy AMD hardware with those optimisations not translating to PC, not even on AMD cards. This game is the new Quantum Break as far as performance goes with what looks like "drag n drop" porting.

I wish everyone who bought this unfinished game would ask for a refund. Bad console porting like we see here, downgraded graphics in other ports so the console gamers won't feel left out. (Oh Hello Ubisoft) etc etc. If this continues pc gaming will die. No pc gamer should have to put up with this sh*t. Make a statement.

From Hilbert's review: "In all fairness, this is an Nvidia optimized title much like AMD has a lot of AMD optimized ones."

M3 is not an Nvidia title like GOW4. It might work best on Nvidia, but, for such a title, that's not saying much. To see Nvidia games look at this list; http://www.geforce.co.uk/games-applications/pc-games By my reckoning, M3 is a vendor agnostic title.

Indeed guys! Just throw the damn game back at the devs faces, this is really...I mean it's completely...I have no words. :puke2:

Or maybe they should be given proper time to do so. Apparently 2k wanted a sprawling game like GTA V, completed in the same timeframe, using a studio doing this for the first time, which had less than 1/3 the amount of people that Rockstar has. Yeah...
