  1. That is odd as the configure option was changed in an edit about 2 hours before you posted - can you look at the edited version using Properties
  2. From, my system Audigy with Win 7 Control Panel, Hardware and Sound Manage Audio Devices Select speakers then Properties Then Levels then Balance next to Play Control
  3. Finished again and this time achieved Foxiest of the Hounds which is a right pig to get because of glitches in the game specially in Golem and London A prime example in London I immobilised all the guards and got to Miller then the alarm went. A reload of the game from a few minutes before and it didn't happen
  4. As an aside - wrt beta testing - it would be a lot easier if Alt Tab worked
  5. Regarding loot the quantity you need to get and the difficulty in finding it is a major factor Even on the hardest loot level it shouldn't develop into a loot hunt This, in my opinion, is a problem with Penny Dreadful 3 to the point where I would stick to the lower two levels Of course there is an alternative approach as used in a few FM's - make the loot objective optional
  6. What the heck - Delilah is either dead or a bunch of flowers depending on how you finished Brigmore Witches
  7. It isn't a bug - it applies to all objects you try to move Basically it is a major problem with the way they decided to do the coding and has been complained about frequently
  8. Playing through again on hard (not the go back to the start if you die one) and getting all the side quests one thing really annoys me - and you would think a professional games designer would have sorted it Even large objects which are too heavy unless you have the stronger arms aug act as though they have no mass or inertia - tried to stack two large crates without knocking the lower one over and even the slightest error can knock over multiple crates. This was stacking crates to get to the ice drill hole in G.A.R.M
  9. I wish I had read about the alternate endings before getting to the final sequence so I could have made a save game at the right point Looking at the options - New Game Plus is a dead loss as it will be far too easy and the new hardest version seems totally silly as getting killed takes you back to the start of the game
  10. I am up to 30 hours and just arrived in London - playing pacifist and taking the bank option - and it is definitely worth the money (£30 in my case) The only part I found boring up to now is Prague under lockdown which was very repetitive The load time between sectors was also horribly slow - whether having the game on an SSD would help I don't know I have a very large number of Praxis Kits which I don't know what to do with A final gripe - using quick takedown drops my peak energy level until a biocell is used which rather defeats the idea of it
  11. The benchmark is in the Extras section of the game CPU is an i5 4690K with a Z97 motherboard and 8GB ram
  12. Results with GTX 1060 6GB Standard setting - High Standard setting Very High
  13. Comparison of RX 480 and GTX 1060 on Doom This was a real eye opener for me - the increased average frame rate on the 480 with Vulkan but with a whopping drop in minimum rate and given that my monitor is 60fps limited I don't see any advantage in the better average frame rate http://www.pcgamesn.com/amd/rx-480-vs-gtx-1060-vulkan
  14. I agree and Gigabyte is my preference
  15. I may have found a similar one except I am waiting for them to come back on the warranty period as they say 24 months and the other suppliers say 36 months https://www.scan.co.uk/products/nda-4gb-sapphire-radeon-rx-480-nitroplus-14nm-polaris-pcie-30-7000mhz-gddr5-1208mhz-gpu-1306mhz-boos I wouldn't touch XFX with a bargepole - their RMA system as previously reported in the Scan Forums is an absolutes disaster
  16. Slight change of plan - this is a real RX 470 killer https://www.overclockers.co.uk/sapphire-radeon-rx-480-nitro-4096mb-gddr5-pci-express-rgb-graphics-card-gx-37d-sp.html and the RX 480 4GB knocks spots off the RX 470
  17. Rather than start a new thread - as will have been noticed from my appalling results with Deus Ex Mankind Divided - I have decided to get a new graphics card and despite being a long time Nvidia user I have decided to go with a Radeon RX470 4GB from Gigabyte - any thoughts as to whether I have made the right decision The things which swayed me towards Gigabyte were their excellent UK RMA system and the fact that it has a metal backplate http://forums.hexus.net/graphics-cards/204247-graphics-card-warranties-lets-see-how-good-they-really-look.html The warranty situation had MSI as an option but this rear side temperature rather put me off http://www.kitguru.net/components/graphic-cards/zardon/msi-rx-470-gaming-x-8g-review/28/
  18. Judging by the time took me to get as far as sorting out the augs in Prague it will take me a lot longer than that when you include the side quests
  19. This is worth a check http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2016/08/23/deus-ex-mankind-divided-benchmarked/2
  20. @Biker - as stated earlier about 20fps in Prague and this was even in the cellar where you get the augs sorted which surprised me
  21. looking at this http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2016/08/23/deus-ex-mankind-divided-benchmarked/3 ideally you need 4GB ram but at 2GB the GTX 960 might just hack it
  22. Having got to Prague - frame rate down to 20fps so won't bother playing any more until I get a new graphics card These are the settings
  23. From that link So why am I getting 30fps at 1920 x 1080 with my crappy graphics card
  24. Interesting Playing on low with my 650Ti 1GB card and, at least in the first part, it gives me about 30fps
