another mantle patch

Looks like Thief will not support mantle until a patch:

mantle delayed


Wasnt this game already delayed from a scheduled November launch?

don't remember that... but no good/stable thin driver = impossible to make Mantle ready at launch...or maybe: since the current driver seems better for 290, they would wait and give to all GCN users an optimized experience...
anyway tomorrow they should release the 14.2 😉
stay tuned...

I'm not playing this game until it has TrueAudio. What a disappointment. Bleh. Had it preloaded and everything.
 
Since there's already trouble supplying the demand of 290/290x cards anyways, I don't think AMD is in a rush to push Mantle right now.

I could be wrong, but didn't AMD say the driver works fine for GCN 1.0 cards but that Dice had only optimized BF4 for GCN 1.1? Did GCN 1.0 cards see good performance in the Star Swarm benchmark? I could be remembering wrong, but I thought someone from AMD said this at some point.

"...will be optimized for BattleField 4™ in future AMD Catalyst™ releases."
😉 so not BF4 patch... I don't think that there is an opinion here...

Ok, nevermind then, just remembering wrong. Hopefully 14.2 brings those optimizations to GCN 1.0 cards. As far as Thief goes, it looks like this game is nothing like the originals. Not unexpected, but still disappointing. I was looking forward to this game, but looking at early reports/reviews, it seems I will be passing on this iteration. Will be interesting to see if Mantle brings any significant benefits to the game, doesn't seem to be a very cpu heavy game.
