[Dev] Overtaxation of PC Hardware

[Jinko]

Agree with this thread, optimisation needs to be addressed, especially if you want to appeal to more players who can't afford beast PC configurations.

This game rarely uses more than 50% of my quad core or 60% of my GPU, some serious optimsation work needs to be done.

List your play settings. Cause this game always uses 100% of my 5870 O_o

I'm using a 4870, 1080p @ 8xAA, getting around 25-30 FPS most of the time which is fine for me.

The problem isn't the framerate for me or even the heat of the CPU/GPU its the fact it doesn't utilize what I'm running it on, I heard FF14 is heavily bottlenecked by CPU issues though, so maybe SE need to look into optimsing their multithread compiler a bit better.

Any game can cause issues like that, techncially. What CPU and speed do you have running?

This is certainly a big issue , i still have nightmares reading the issues with FFXIII destroying Ps3, and frozen screen at square enix logo.

Whoa what is this about. My PS3 is fried right now, and FFXIII does freeze at that screen.
