    I abandoned playing locally on my steam deck in favor of remote play from my desktop. It's not an option for everyone, and it's probably not a good option until we get some optimization from either the devs or of the proton layer. It really is a great game to play on deck, it's a shame it can't currently handle it.

    For sure! That’s definitely the way to go, I’m hoping in time it gets sorted. I could play on desktop but I’ll wait and see.

    i was able to get it running ok on all lowest settings, definatly not the best option if you like graphics but it was playable. hopefully valve or the devs will come up with somethinf to have it run better. ilove this game so far, itd be nice to play on the go

    Unfortunately, they didn't. The game runs even worse. No matter the settings, it doesn't go above 20fps. Seems like it's capped, for some reason.

    Thanks a lot, I guess, I'll just wishlist it and wait a few months till the first wave of patches runs by. Shame. Looking at the graphics, it should run much much smoother.

    Exactly! Again this is the demo from steam not the full release version but surely it must be similar? Especially when things like cyberpunk run great on the deck!

    ​@@kingsalami217dumb question is there a way to down clock the CPU to give the GPU more headroom and would setting fsr to sharpness 3 help it some.

  • @drd2093
    @drd20935 ай бұрын

    The physics load with the car is fighting against the GPU for power. Sometimes in this situation it helps to set the gpu clock specifically. I think I’ll try it and refund if I can’t get it doable

    It doesn't play any better, unfortunately. Seems like it's capped at 20fps, even with all graphics on Low and screen percentage down to 0. 20fps. Tops 22.

    Yeah I’m not sure what’s going on? I wouldn’t have thought so, maybe it’s just the demo? Like iv said to a couple of others if cyberpunk runs on the deck there’s no reason this shouldn’t.

    @@kingsalami217 Persona 3 tanks on regular proton, but with a SD running Windows or Steam OS on the current beta and proton hotfixes it works perfectly (without RT). So I would expect the same being the case here. Valve is usually quick on performance fixes. If not, always custom Proton builds. This definitely looks like more of a Proton issue than a clear cut hardware issue. I think you need to keep this in mind when you see obviously more power hungry games work a lot better than one that is clearly lower in spec. Not considering it makes your video seem a little disingenuous by not presenting this crucial bit of information.

    @MrFantastik619 I actually say in the video steam could go in and fix it at 3:05 I actually say steam might update the proton. Also I say multiple times that this is the demo and full version might be different and to let me know 😊

    Nah my 300 no name laptop have more power than that over 600 steam deck oled, NOT woth the price for that it is only steam and lagging in games like roblox 😂😂 That AAA games are made for it to play but if you play a real game on it it do not have the power 😂😂😂 For 200 ore max 300 I will buy it but over 600 is just scam

    This is more of a game issue than a steam deck issue. Games like cyberpunk and forza play great on deck. Just an optimisation issue with the game or proton layer should fix the issue.

    Oh man...I do hope you have and you're just talking out if frustration. But if you don't own one, you really should, before talking. Your 300€ laptop was bought from the 30th century?
