See"s Andromeda and sighs... they might have to start making cough game ready drivers cough for non AAA titles cos they tend to be much better these days lol.


#5409778 Posted on: 03/20/2017 02:39 PM

Funny enough, non AAA titles runs better in general on PC by default.


Thx consoles.

Ah Mass Effect Andromeda, how long I have waited for this day to come, and yet when it came im not even hyped. Like my hype is -1, due to well known reasons.

My set of actions will be in next weeks in my free time to replay ME 1,2,3, while in the mean time HOPEFULLY Bioware fixes all of this junk. However knowing that currently the team has nothing to do with old games, and my favorite franchise... I think Bioware is done for. DA:I was a first sign.

The other day the game Mass Effect: Andromeda was released and NVIDIA was right there. The company immediately released drivers that add support for the game Mass Effect: Andromeda. New drivers increase game performance and also update components of the old driver. Rock Band VR support has also been added.
