How is it going - first impressions?
PC gaming is as bad as i remember: update OS, drivers, DS4Windows (to map controller as not natively supported), fiddle settings for stable framerate.... and then the keybindings / controller detection is all messed up.
Got there eventually, but i've probably spent
3 hours just getting it working to my first Armstrong moment
* i'm getting 30fps to 60fps on very high with RTX 2070, 16GB RAM, i7-10750H, SSD
Saying that, the space-feet and ship interiors game is everything i hoped ED would be, and i'm just in my tiny starter ship. But yes immersion and attention to detail is all over the place. Compared to Odyssey's space ports, these feel real in SC.
It is however quite sim-simulation, so loads of arguably needless hurdles to jump because err sim.
All i've really done so far is spawn, run to my ship and have issues and respawn 3 times (crashing while trying to keybind etc), and only just managed to do my first proper controlled take off, hop to a random landing site, land, go back to the space port and land again. I'm calling that a success even if baby's first steps.
Hopefully i can start exploring the game properly now, but it is very encouraging at the moment. If
@boppa_ has a few hours under the belt already, then probably far better to give impressions.
