That's apples and oranges. The only thing stopping Nvidia from fixing the performance issues with this game is Nvidia.

AMD has fixed their gameworks problems, despite Nvidia's blackbox.
Yes that is why The Division , Rise of the Tomb Raider, Gears of Wars, The Division was running good on AMD.
 
Those developers are so busy selling AMD GPUS that are not even replying about Nvidia issues and simply ignoring. That is why game was non selling.

Yah you caught them.... They intentionally tanked one of the biggest franchises in gaming history, because they are AMD fanboys!

yup.....

ITT: Hitman sells fewer copies than other recent games on both PC and Console not because it is a short, episodic game with uninspiring reviews, but because people saw a 380X beating a 970 and got upset.

only in port like hitman which end as a non selling.
 
nvidia users are petty enough to not buy games in which they're not winning the benchmarks. Someone in this very thread returned AOTS because their 980TI isn't the fastest. The sad reality of the depths that fanboys descend to.

its funny that they found yet another reason to bash amd this time is low sales on games

Exactly.
Jim Sterling has a good writeup over why the game sold badly - or to be precise, he published his writeup weeks before launch because it was that obvious.

I bought the new TR despite reviews claiming it has performance issues because I liked the previous one and couldn't care less who sponsors the current one. Turns out, it doesn't have performance issues with my system and I also like the current one.

I didn't buy Hitman:Absolution because the game seems to have issues with its core gameplay and I don't like episodic games in general. Also, they didn't manage to hype me up for this game at all, irregardless who sponsored it.

When you read that your card performs bad why would anybody buy this game? :\
The GTX970 is the number 1 card on Steam and yet the developer doesnt care about nVidia. You have around 80% of the market who will hesitate to buy the first episode.
Oh and dont forget the broken DX12 path... 😀

Same. I bought ROTTR day 1 even though it is Gameworks and most of the day 0 benchmarks had Fiji suffering (970 > Fury in some of them). My card ran it fine at a mix of mostly High and Ultra, as I knew it would. Nvidia cards also run Hitman fine in DX11. Most new games demand sacrifices in setting regardless of brand.

As long as there isn't inescapable visual corruption or fractional performance (Gears day 1 Fiji), why would anybody make buying decisions based on butthurtness of their card performing a tier or two lower than average if they think the game is fun? The thing is this new short Hitman just doesn't excite people, and I didn't buy it even though it is cheap and favors my hardware.

You think a game deserve to be sold when GTX 970 is hitting 20 fps on 1080p high settings?

The OP of this very thread has a 970 at 48fps maxed out DX11. Turning down Shadows alone gets a 970 user near 60fps steady, which can be further assured by (god-forbid) maybe lowering another setting or two down a single notch but this isn't even that necessary.

You are literally making things up.

I mean to say The division, The Witcher 3, Rise of the Tomb Raider, GOW, Far Cry primal, etc has far better graphics then Hitman low funded game. Then why it was botched port on DX11? I know AMD wanted those developers to only focus on DX12.

Please do read steam reviews of performance issues and people who bought those games are simply refunding that game.

And this is a problem, because the devs are not responsible for the hardware capabilities. They try their best for all IHV.
 
No i am just felling said that game like Hitman sales went disaster after they only focused AMD GPU.
That's completely rubbish. AMD GPUs are far better in a compute oriented D3D12 engine like the updated Glacier 2. That's all.
Sure the devs may focus on some FL12_1 features, but to implement these may require a big engine overhaul, which is not useful for now. Even if they spend some R&D for it, there is a long road ahead, so it is much more useful to use those D3D12 features which can be easily implemented, like multi-engine and typed UAV.
 
Please do read steam reviews...
Just did. The game has >90% positive reviews (not awesome, not terrible either) and none of the 'most helpful' german reviews mention performance issues.

In fact, not even the top 30 negative reviews I just read mention any, all of them are about bad level design and gameplay issues.
