i did try it with everything switched off and all of the settings switched to low, but it was still quite bad.
i've uninstalled it now anyway. i'll just keep looking around for a cheaper graphics card that will run it ok - i've already got 8gb of ram on windows as it is, so i think if i can get a half decent 2gb graphics card, it should work. (i hope!).

From what I heard it is very CPU intensive game, more RAM will not hurt either. Try to disable motion blur and global illumination, reduce LOD and shadow details to medium, choose FXAA x 8 . this should help.

ah well, downloaded it finally and it's basically unplayable, but that's probably more down to my system than anything.
I've only got a core i3 and it recommends a minimum of a core i5, and it appears my graphics card isn't up to it either, even on the lowest of settings, even though "can i run it" seems to suggest that the only difference is video ram.
I did have a sneaking suspicion i might have problems, but i'd still rather have the game than not have it, as at least i can look at getting some upgrades somewhere down the line.
although saying that, i've just seen a youtube video of the game running just fine on a core i3, but, apparently with 8gb of ram and a GTX 750 which is a near £100 graphics card .. *faints* :smiley:
I'll have to do a bit more research to find out the most cost effective way i can upgrade enough to play this, but either way, it won't be for a while.
#edit
looking around, I think i'm going to have to actually uninstall this game for now as there's little chance i'm going to be able to afford to upgrade my PC to any kind of level that will run this.

I hope you will be one of the lucky ones who can play the game just fine. It is a blast if you are not bothered by performance issues I am sure you will enjoy it. the price of the game will go down as it happened with Mad Max, I pre ordered it from CD keyes for similar price and you could have bought it for £11 3 months later. Enjoy !

Either way, at this price it's still worth buying. You can always keep it and wait for a full patch. Doesn't make any sense to wait until it's likely going to be more expensive before buying it.
I'm going to see how it plays in a couple of hours when it's downloaded. if it's not good then i'll just uninstall and wait for the patch as well.

I mean a proper patch, sure they avalanche have already released two patches 1.02 and 1.021. The stability and fps drops are still present on rigs with AMD graphics cards. Game is a great fun and if you can get pass sudden fps drops from 69 fps to 15 fps on my rig and micro frezzes and stuttering sure the deal is good but in my opinion this game is on par of worst releases of 2015 with Arkham Knight. Simplus.

Hope your graphics cards are up to the job of handling the bonkers explosions and chain reactions.:man: Have put 19hrs in so far, does get boring doing the same thing but for some strange reason I keep playing it..:laughing:

Graphics are insane, Plays amazing, Brilliant fun to blow everything up and roam the world.
But the story is so boring, every mission is the same, (take over a town) by killing the rebels and putting up your flat.
Honestly it is so boring. And blowing stuff up gets boring pretty fast too, after a fey days I stopped playing.
Brilliant price though heat added.

Spot on, I was hoping for more but it's basically very nice looking and very shallow. You'd have thought it would have progressed in the last 5 years.
Still a great price, heat added.

Bought this for my younger brother and he's absolutely loving it!
Seems pretty repetitive but he's already put in 25hrs since last Friday :confused:
Supposed to be a big patch today to fix some issues.
