I forgot that you guys get it today, while it isn't released before Friday here in Norway at least...

Edit: Wait it is Friday today... Damn it, my pre-order of the game shipped late.

Gotta love Durante. Very glad he was given slightly early access to this in order to perform some magic. You'd think he'd done enough with DSfix, but even with a competent port, he's still gone above and beyond to provide improvements.

That said, I'm not using anything of his. Yet. My GTX670 is very happily running this game at 1440p(downsampling)/60fps, which looks amazing. Its a beautiful game. I think I might try HBAO+ for a slight improvement in the AO, but otherwise I'm honestly pretty pleased with how things are now.

Also, very much worth noting is Durante's universal downsampling tool he's released(still WIP, but already pretty groundbreaking, especially for AMD and high refresh rate users):

Expect this to get even better in the future.

You didn't expect them to solve all the problems that hold the previous game down on PC, did you?
