I see it’s on sale and I really love vermintide, the only issue is I don’t know if it will run or not. Seems like I’m barely at minimum requirements and don’t even meet them in other ways… I have an acer nitro 5 upgraded ram and ssd and probably going to get an external GPU, but my CPU is just bad. Right now I have 16 gigs of ram, and a 4 gb vid card but only 2.50 ghz on the processor.
Now I’ve played plenty of games that said I barely meet minimum requirements and had no issue running them at average settings, so my guess would be it would run at low settings with alright framerate. I’ve never really had any issues with any games except some new FPS on the highest settings. I’ve heard varying answers. Some people tell me if I get an external GPU with 8 gigs and put another 16 of ram in it would be decent. Some people say throw away my computer because it’s garbage and darktide is ram/processor heavy and won’t even start up at all.
It does sound like the CPU would be your bottleneck, I think the CPU generation is fairly important and perhaps also to what extant it can overclock? It does sound like your laptop should be able to run the game at a decent framerate, if it can’t or you don’t like the performance you should be able to get an easy refund if it’s from Steam.
But anyway yeah sounds lke I won’t get it. My buddy just won 10 grand playing blackjack at the casino and dumped 6 grand into a new PC and it barely runs the game at 60 fps at high settings lol. Sounds like they did a really bad job in developement on the game or something which is surprising bc it’s a PC only game. Not super hopeful and I don’t have that kind of money.
I wish that was an option, but my friends didn’t buy the game on steam. They are video game noobs who mostly play xbox so they bought the inferior microsoft version.
Man I just feel like I’m getting to the age where I’m growing out of gaming. The amount of money I have to put into playing video games compared to the amount of time I actually have to play them is just hardly worth the little joy I get anymore. Probably better off I just don’t get anything and just focus on doing something more productive anyway.
I can’t believe the people I went to school with make 4 times my salary just because they went into computer programming and can think nothing of dropping 2 grand at a casino and 5 grand on a computer to play a game for 20 hours then never use their pc for months. Making 120 grand a year sitting on their computer all day maybe doing 2 hours of work.
I guess that’s life… making life long decisions at the age of 18 when you’re too immature and ignorant to understand the consequences.
Yeah… what kind of games have you had fun on lately? I don’t like any competitive ones bc I don’t have alot of time but… I play 1 player games and co op. I did elden ring and and vermintide… and deep rock galactic. And now I’m doing warhammer 2 but It’s really hard and I’m terrible at it lol. I want to get some chill 1 player games if you know any. I like some retro roguelike ones too like dead cells was pretty cool.
oh yeah nintendo switch games. I got an emulator and played all the top switch games within like 6 month. Like 25 games lol. I want to get botw 2 but I’m waiting for a link to a good xci for my emulator
I had a i7-7700 and a GTX 1070 8GB up to monday this week when I bought a new gaming computer.
Tbh, I wouldn’t recommend playing the game with subpar equipment and a GTx 1650 is not even close to the 1070.
As you might know, Darktide is a game of quick decision making and underperforming hardware makes the game even on all low settings choppy and stuttery.
Plus Darktide just like RDR2 is a game that is kinda of a “victim of its generation”; that without either DLSS or TAA (upscaled), the game looks really bad, hittety and pixelated.
That’s just how it is nowadays unfortunately with graphical intense games.
