Why exactly won't it work on amd cards?
Probably because the people coding the remaster didn't bother optimizing it for AMD infrastructure. But that's about as surprising as finding out water is wet.
Because they are made by AMD
It's not that, there's a bug causing the performance issues. The developers have been posting a lot on the Steam forum for the game, and say they're working on a fix. Even the most unoptimised, shit port of Darksiders wouldn't be running at 20fps on a 390X if there wasn't an actual bug. The key thing is that people are reporting the same performance no matter what AMD card they own. It seems to run about the same on an R7 370 as a Fury X, so something's real wrong.
It'd be a valid question to ask why this wasn't caught and fixed pre-release, but it also launched with broken save game importing, broken achievements, random crashing on all configurations (I've had two in about an hour's play with a 1070), missing languages that were in the original (the dev posting on Steam thinks they might have plain forgotten to put the files in the final build), broken 21:9 support... the list goes on.
If it hadn't been free for existing owners, it'd be getting shit on a lot harder than it is.
>buying AMD in the first place
>buying AMD and expecting video games to run well
The cutscene audio mix is also completely fucked. Voices are really loud and everything else is really quiet. Lipsyncing is also broken for a lot of people. Giant Bomb's QL of the console version showed it completely off in that version too.

About the level of reading comprehension you'd expect from the average Nvidia owner..
lol
why would you buy amd in the first place anyway? everyone knows they aren't even good in budget builds anymore due to their overhead which require an i7 6700k to get the most out of the gpu.
>require higher-end Intel CPUs to not get bottlenecked

What happened to the days of Athalon X2 when AMD/ATI was still worth a shit?

Intel bribing retailers to not sell any amd products.
>Steam wide performance survey
This is why it's pointless to engage AMDfags in any sort of discussion.
It's always someone elses fault, AMD is always in the right and absolutely pristine.
Especially considering that AMD literally started as a retailer of knockoff Intel CPUs that was allowed to continue doing business purely for the sake of competition.
>mfw AMD marketshare keeps shrinking
again, he's right with what he just said and you've just proven it. he didn't say that these other people don't do shady shit he implies that amd fanboys will brush off anything amd does and blame it on someone else, just like you are doing now.
funny how nobody mentions that amd banned reviewers when they didn't shill for the 3xx series gpu's.

>Implying the monopoly isn't already here
I wish AMD made real great GPU's but they just don't, and I'm not going to buy one because I feel sorry for them
Only dipshits and retards buy Nvidia. People that look at what the better buy is buy AMD.
Aside from if you want better than 480 performance right now, fuck.
Nobody wants a monopoly, they want AMD to stop sucking. Their CPUs have been garbage for everything besides budget builds/specific benchmarks for years and their GPU division spends more time stuffing cheap VRAM units into cards that require high-end CPUs to be utilized correctly (and then still underperform at everything besides specific benchmark tests).
People don't want a monopoly, but people aren't going to buy shitty products purely because it will generate competition.
no they don't. only autists who flock to clickbait sites in search of "amd global domination xD" articles and vote on polls there vote for amd. the educated consumer still buys nvidia.

Sure, better 3.5's, higher prices, GPU gimping, and slightly better performance in some games is obviously what educated people buy.

Only a complete window licking retard would buy an Nvidia product after that 970 shit. The same retards who come to threads like these and parrot Sup Forums memes like AMD drivers suck when Nvidia's have been even worse this year
Playing this for the first time. Should I buy the Deathinitive Edition for DS2? I have the regular version but never played it.
>another retarded developer who can't use DirectX
>surprised it doesn't work properly
Actually it went from 15% (late 2014) to 32%. So their strategy of aiming for the mainstream spot actually worked.
>muh 3.5gb meme
still spouting this eh? even after it's been disproved more times than retards like you try and prove it lmao.
>GPU gimping
same as above. if a 780 ti is being gimped why does any aib 780 ti still outperform a flagship amd rx 480 today in 9/10 games?
>and slightly better performance in some games is obviously what educated people buy.
"slightly" lmao. whatever you say. :^)

Ayy fucking lmao. This is hilarious. That's why they were literally sued and complied, right?

About the level of AMD sucking of the average shill
>That's why they were literally sued and complied, right?
nope. they were sued because they didn't state it had a split ram configuration in the specsheet, among other errors. they weren't sued for the retarded reasons you like to imply like it only has 3.5gb ram or that it's actually an issue when gaming.
terrible attempt at a reply. -1/10. try harder next time.
unfortunately this is mind set the majority of nvidia owners have. the monopoly is going to happen, i think i'd rather quit PC gaming then continue to support nvidia at that point.
but hey all the AMD shitposting was worth paying $1200 for a gtx 1150 right?
you're responsible for AMDs negative image, you're at fault for spreading lias about AMD.

That's what I was talking about?

sure you were buddy.
Deathinitive is just a GOTY edition with all the DLC.
Yeah, sorry I didn't specify 3.5+.5 for full meme overdrive. I thought it was obvious, as all fucking 3.5 memes mention that. It would probably perform better with 3.5 anyway instead of their 3.5+.5 shit.
It's practically 3.5.
I had an AMD GPU though
It sucked, I switched to Nvidia and things improved to the point that I again went with Nvidia when I bought a new GPU the last time.
Best fucking post so far
>buying amd after they pulled the 3xx series bullshit
>this much delusion
3.5 gigabytes is factual, dummy.
You fucking retard, he also didn't mention GB, is that an issue?
This is a prime example of what I was talking about here The current market situation obviously has nothing to do with AMD taking 9 months to release competitive products (in performance, not other metrics) now two years and product lines in a row.
It's always about people being 'sheep' and 'not educated' and not buying 'clearly superior' AMD products.
What's wrong with this?
Nothing, obiously. AMD never did anything wrong.
no. it's a full 4gb. the fact you even mention that proves you don't even understand what the issue really was. it's got nothing to do with the actual ram.

Unreal Engine 4 built around GameWorks™ and people wonder why AMD cards struggle with the games that use it.
>WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS?

You two best be shilling/trollling
Amazing how old games such as this still gets updates and remade with better graphics. I'll look forward to playing this.
>he is incapable of detecting sarcasm
>$130 more for a literal rebrand
>extra 4gb of worthless vram the gpu's can't even fully utilize
>no. it's a full 4gb.
Technically yes, but they're split, like you said. Which is the problem. Saying it's 4 "grambits" is wrong because it's not 4 consecutive Gigabytes.
>Detecting sarcasm on text
Ebin
To this day I regret selling off my old VooDoo.
>Higher core clock
>Higher memory clock
>More memory
>No performance gain
Really? I agree it's a bit overpriced, but I don't think it's that wrong in essence.
>consecutive Gigabytes
You really have no idea what you are talking about.
So they're not split? Or are they split? That's all I'm fucking talking about, and what all the memes are talking about. It's what decreases performance in some situations, it's what's relevant.
I too sometimes wish I still had it.

A good card. It did what it was intended to do. The software support never did come when I needed it. But my cpu block leaked water on it. Ouch.
>2015
GeForce 950 bought at like 30% off because I don't care for gpu intensive vidiya anymore. Most of the software I use is CUDA or OpenGL powered, so no more AMD for me.
igpu forever until like 2014 when I first got a hd 6450 from amd
It was utter shite
I upgraded quickly to a gtx 750ti in 2015, now on a 1060 6gb oc
Fuck this is heaven in comparison to those old cards
except it isn't a problem, retard.
fun fact: this isn't the first gpu to have a split vram/bus configuration
why did nobody bitch about those other gpu? that's right, because people are so assmad nvidia was winning with a top product. they won by such a massive margin it's been the top gpu in the world for 2 years in a row.
>faster than a 290x for $200 less
>overclocks to 980 performance
>except it isn't a problem, retard.
Top fucking keke, I guess all those people lied.
see
Well it's not a literal rebrand.
Nvidia are jew scum who literally bribe devs into including shit like Gimpworks and 64x tesselation that gimps their own cards slightly less than AMD cards, or to take out Directx 12 features and Async compute like they did with Rise of the Tomb Raider.
If you buy an Nvidia product you forfeit your right to ever complain about a shitty PC port.
Because AMD is garbage hardware. It's terrible on release for everything, yet you faggots still buy. When will you learn?
it is a literal rebrand, retard. at the same clocks the 290x and 390x perform exactly the same to within 1fps
So it doesn't have a higher core and memory clock? I'm sorry, I was basing it on the image that was posted.
We know both brands are shit, but what do we do then? make our own gpus from scratch? fuck off.
who lied? i can't even find any videos proving it's an issue. i can only find ones which show it's not.
eg
Can Sup Forums name ONE (1) PC game that ran very well on AMD hardware on release?
>If you buy an Nvidia product you forfeit your right to ever complain about a shitty PC port.
Actually, no. We don't.
Most console games are "optimized" for AMD.
It's ironic AMD cards would shit their asses with console ports if anything.

The people claiming it's an issue obviously, you should work on your reading comprehension.
>Back then enabling Voodoo2 in options was just magic
Yep, I remember playing Unreal in Glide for the first time, it was an absolutely insane difference.
>Like most aTi cards at the time - it was loud, hot and not all that good.
The 9000 series was pretty great though, faster than the GeForce 4 Ti line. Drivers were pretty bad though.
>It's terrible on release for everything
you mean like nvidia? they need to release new drivers for every game.
NOT Ashes of the Singularity
are you legit stupid? do you know what a higher core clock and memory clock means? the HARDWARE is the exact same to the T and the extra 4gb vram. they just put a fucking overclock on it and sold it for over 100 bucks more. if you were to overclock your gpu right now with msi afterburner, would you consider it to be a WHOLE different gpu?
kill yourself
MGSV
>extra 4gb of worthless vram the gpu's can't even fully utilize
mirrors edge catalyst would like to have a word with you. also the context behind the picture is that digital foundry did a 390 vs 970 video and in the first video the 970 was absolutely dominating. after getting called out they "realized their mistake" and reran the test with the correct settings, the 970 got fucking demolished.
i also owned a 970 and had a ton of frame stuttering problems in games, the card is garbage.
You're right, oh shit your right, we all should just stop buying AMD as of now no more. Let them go bankrupt then Intel and nVidia can have the Market all to themselves. You really would like to see the cost of nvidias cards skyrocket even more than they are now and to see performance gains of only 1-2% per generation cycle.
But a graphics card is more than just the hardware. It's not a literal rebrand, maybe without the literal operative word, but with it it's definitely not a rebrand.
i just provided video proof that it isn't. where is the solid video proof you can provide me which shows it is? i can post another 10 vids i just found showing it's not an issue.
find me 10 vids with solid and undeniable proof of 3.5gb being an issue and not some bugged game and i'll never buy nvidia again.
>The devs already found a fix for the problem and are working on it.
check the steam forums.
I'm getting 40-60 fps on my rx480 + windows 7
it's playable...
If you run windows10 though....
you're FUCKED.
>where is the solid video proof you can provide
Wait, what? Why do you think this?
>i also owned a 970 and had a ton of frame stuttering problems in games, the card is garbage.
I owned a 970 and had 0 frame stuttering problems in games, card was great for it's price.
What now?
Nvidia always works, just not as good as after the drivers are out.
And if anything they actually release their drivers before the fucking game comes out rather than a month later.
i was waiting for this post.

>And it's a similar state of affairs with Mirror's Edge - but the game's status as a VRAM glutton in hyper mode seems to have changed since we tested it at launch. When we first looked at it, we found that hyper mode absolutely crippled performance on four gig cards like the entry-level RX 480. However, when we returned to it for GTX 1060 testing, its VRAM issues had been cleaned up and performance suddenly looks a whole lot better - with no real difference between four gig and eight gig models.
check mate. now kill yourself.
>i also owned a 970 and had a ton of frame stuttering problems in games, the card is garbage.
it is about the hardware you twit. do you even know what a rebrand is? the 390x and 390 are fucking rebrands.
