Runs fine on my current rig. I really need to try and run it on my backup PC just to see what happens. Considering I ran SS3 at 15-19 fps on the rig I had before replacing it with what is now my backup rig , I bet I could get it running and playable I'll wait until I'm bored though. Thanks for the guide. It's always nice to know what settings do . I love the fact Croteam bothers to include the wonderful choice of settings it does. Options are always wonderful in a PC game.

or get it on stadia (if your connection is ok and your data cap is reasonable). I have the game on steam but ended up buying it on the cloud to play with friends who only had a crappy laptop. It works and the game with friends is really fun

Well thanks, we can't all afford a scalped 3060 to play maxed out. I really appreciate Devs calling what i can afford a potato makes me feel better about my self. Good job.

nice

I took two screenshots, but unfortunately can't post it here.
Basically I get 7FPS higher in DirectX11 than Vulkan and believe me I have a full AMD system that should benefit most from switching to Vulkan, because DirectX11 and AMD aren't friends with low IPC CPU's.
I guess DX12 and Vulkan were only added for a sales gimmick, and only to the extent that it is compatible.
There are no graphical advantages from using DirectX12 or Vulkan; except for Ray Tracing, if developed correctly, they can only give performance advantages.
This game is awesome thus far though when played with DirectX11.

so here i am trying to run game , but after i launch game screen goes black , eventually i try close game that an error ocured, Here are my specs https://im.ge/i/LqeAy , NOTE that i have 2 display adapters and i used graphics setings to use second one -AMD Radeon (TM) R5 M330- to launch game for higher performance , but with the same result , Any help/ sugestions please ?

Hi @chokepoint

That R5 M330 does unfortunately not meet the minimum requirements to run the game. That card had 2GB of VRAM, whereas this game requires 3GB of VRAM minimum.

im trying to play it but it crashes whenever I open it will the guide let me play it on my below minimum specs pc
