game runs slow in towns

[Reverse Cowgirl]

in whatever the first town is I only avg 30 fps with all settings on max, game doesn't even look that good.....

amd 965 gxt 560 with 275.27 drivers and 5 gb ram

Hey Cowgirl, I think most people are having low performance issues at this point. I think in general, PC gamers eyes are used to higher frame rates, 60+, so when we get into a game like Fable 3 ported from consoles, which runs at 30 FPS with Vsync on, it seems very sluggish. At least, I have determined that this is the case with me. Maybe try turning off the Vsync, I have read in a couple other threads this helping a lot of people, it seemed to help my performance a lot too. :D

[Dracomd]

turn tree detail way down.

[StingingVelvet]

Turn off in-game v-synch and try forcing it through your GPU's control panel. A lot of people say that stops the game from capping at 30fps.

Unless it is a general performance issue.

[daviborl_3]

same here no matter how low i set graphics , games stutter as hell , ♥♥♥♥ YOU LIONHEAD

[Bezzi]

6950 2gb and q9400 3,5ghz game runs 60-150 fps but there is some weird fps drops to 25-30 :D

[DarkByke]

You're lucky. I get around 5-10fps in towns/outside.

[oliathsg]

Why don't you use the auto detect feature.
This will set your game up in the optimal way for your system.

Too many people think that their machine is so amazing that they can crank everything to max and then are surprised when they get frame drops.

Runs absolutely fine for me on my 460 which is lower than your card and I used autodetect... which put most things on max but a few things lower.

[Reverse Cowgirl]

not using vsync

auto detect makes it max settings

oliathsg, my rig is amazing for this game, moron.

[Double D]

Yeah sorry, I crank up stuff because I know my PC can handle it, not because I suddenly think it's amazing.

[Reverse Cowgirl]

err I know my pc can handle it, a gtx 560 at 1 ghz like mine is basically a 570, and if you think a 570 can't handle this game then lol

[MrXGamer]

I have GTX 480 and it gives me 20-25 FPS in towns. There's definitely something wrong.

My comment wasn't directed at you lol.

[Dracomd]

GTX 480 here as well. Just turn the effects details slider to minimum (the setting for blur, aa, bloom, dof). Set in-game v-sync off. Set control panel v-sync and triple buffering on. Set trees details to medium. My card is overclocked to 810 mhz and I get a solid 60 fps in towns and wilderness settings.

Now heres where other people might be experiencing problems--nvidia users specifically.
The newest beta drivers released on the 17th of May seem to have a bug that destroys fps in some situations (first reported in Witcher 2), but this is avoided by not installing the 3d-vision component of the drivers. So just try a clean install of your nvidia drivers and avoid installing the 3d-vision element.

You guys must sure be doing something wrong.

I run everything on max at 1920 x 1080 at slid 60fps on:

i7 950@4ghz
24gb Ram
GTX 480

[Dracomd]

^_^ could be that fable 3 has an insane memory leak issue and your 24gb of ram kicks it in the balls

[DarkByke]

I DONT WANT to play a game if I have to scale down my graphics to less than high. Why should I sacrifice my own visuals because something wasn't designed right?

Hmmm... I doubt it.

The issues are widespread, it's surely not something to do with us, thanks.

hmmm you must have a crappy computer lol, i have 480's in sli but also i have a sandy o/c to 4.8 ghz, and i only have 8gb of ram, so look in to your cpu, im at 50 to 60 fps in or out of town. and also i just got a ips panel, and not only this game but all games old and new, don't look washed out at all, tn panels suck.ips are smooth as butter. 1920 x 1200

Rofl SLI 480s and a Sandy @ 4.8 and only 50-60 FPS? You do realize that performance is TERRIBLE for your rig and the graphical quality of this game?

Wow what a ♥♥♥♥in moron you are.

[Raziel200480]

I never had any issues while I was in town until I got to about 25 hours in the game. Now it seems like every time I'm in a town I'm going in slo-mo for most of the visit.

Does this game run incredibly choppy for anyone else. I mean you will have 30+ fps but moving the camera will cause stutters and choppiness but the fps stays the same..

NEED PATCH!

So i saw some 360 gameplay on youtube. it seems that the consoles are also plagued with this problem.

but not like here , i have the xbox version , and it runs perfectly , stucked with 30 fps , but there's no stutter like pc :|... its seems like slow motion ♥♥♥♥in' problem

[JoeH-UK]

DarkByke: I know you have 6cores, but i reckon these guys performances come from an OC on their CPU's lol 4ghz sure is abit faster than 2.6ghz :P

[Reverse Cowgirl]

6570 is a pretty low range card btw

Really? I couldve sworn there was stutter on the 360 videos i saw... similar but not as intense as the pc version.
