Austin Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Well, I haven't been able to zoom around the forums for a while because of current events in my life. But, I have recently been spending a lot of my hours playing Civilization V and XCOM - Enemy Unknown. Today I came to visit the forums and see what's going on and I found out we have a new forum! Anyway, what have you all been playing lately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on when you bought Under the Ocean give it another shot. They just added a good bit of performance upgrades, so you may find it better. Baldur's Gate is obviously a very old game, but it is absolutely one of the best RPG's out there. As someone who also enjoys pen and paper D&D it's just fantastic for me, but it was basically the "Mass Effect" of my generation in terms of quality/fun/story.

Rathlord Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Well that's weird, I got the game recently during the summer sale. Any tips on how I could increase my FPS?Make sure you're playing at the lowest graphics options (during startup) and play in fullscreen mode (easier on your computer for the most part). Also close background applications, I've heard Skype particularly can cause trouble for whatever reason. I believe this game is made in the Unity engine- possibly it falls back on using lots of CPU rather than GPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
