It’s more likely that they’ve hit a driver bug, or accidentally pushed a build with some debug junk. They wouldn’t intentionally release game that runs 15fps on 4090.

What was the other game?

It's great, people are whinging because they don't get perfect 60 fps on day 1 and didn't have every kitchen sink idea ever thrown into a c:s 1 dlc. Anyone who complains about DLC pricing on paradox games is a rube anyway, it's all in there and all you have to do is flip a software switch to get it all for free. Ground floor, let's go.

My big annoyance with the game right now is how big the friggin schools are compared to everything else. Look at the size of this elementary school! It's the size of a city block and is like fives stories tall while also being two stories! You could fit several single family homes in its roof volume alone.

Also outbuildings and upgrades for stuff have to be directly connected instead of nearby. This is a problem for stuff like the high school's sports field, which conceivably could be across a small road or some distance away because it's also frickin huge.

I never played the first one as just the base game, but I have to imagine that with so much DLC, it's probably a fairly different game. Mods also helped to fill in a lot of the gaps. I had a feeling this would happen. I wasn't wowed by any of the early gameplay that I saw. I'm just hoping that it will evolve into a good game in a year or two.

Or maybe it's just high expectations of the early adopters and it is a good game. I would pick it up just to try, but I've heard the performance is pretty abysmal and my computer is well past due for an upgrade.

i have a 4090; dropped graphics to 4k resolution, low settings and turned off all the post process crap. mostly runs at 120fps now

4k resolution, low settings

I feel like 1080p, high settings would look better. But I've never played in 4K so idk.
