My ONLY complaint is that this is one of those games where v-synch costs you a lot of frames... seems to jump from 30 to 60 and back again without much room in between, and I hate tearing, so... arg.
Maybe this will help ... I'm not sure as the game hasn't unlocked yet here in the UK and I haven't got the demo installed now.

Set the max fps to 60 ... along with turning on v-sync.

In the "set launch options" for the game add ...
/frameratecap=60

Cool, I'll try that. Even limiting to 30 would be fine for me, I'm playing with a gamepad anyway.

60fps cap does nothing to help but a 30fps cap solves all the issues. The lower framerate is indeed noticeable even with a gamepad though, so I shall have to experiment to see which is worse for me.

Thank you though Paddy, nice to have options!

Wish I would have looked at this thread first.. Just bought this game on steam, but the game runs horribly when I run it in windowed mode (less than 15 FPS) and use sizer to force it to 5040x1050, but it runs at 70+ in fullscreen with 3840x1024, but it looks terrible and stretched. Is there any way I can improve the performance? I have a EVGA 295 GTX (with a TH2Go) on Windows 7 x64 Ultimate.


Edit : Messed with some settings and disabled the shiny windows 7 themes, got it to an acceptable framerate. Also, I found that using a program called Shift Window is great for running this in windowed, it re-sizes the windows perfectly so it appears its running in fullscreen!

ohh, I've been looking for a program like this forever, closest thing I found was a program that I could manually remove the title bar and border from a window then make it bigger, but the in game UI would always have the wrong coordinates for its elements (so you couldn't click on them where they appear on screen..).. thanks for the tip

A couple of screens to illustrate the prompts issue ...

Single screen showing prompt ...


No prompt in TripleHead ...

I wish there would be a trainer that disables the QTE completely

If anyone has a somethingawful forum login, gibbed and bolo are active over there (guys who made the mods so far). I could view the threads the other day but it's locked now. They might be able to help.

Indeed, it's pretty lame all around, triplehead or no.
