Dead Island +DI: Riptide running at 10 FPS?

Guest · Feb 15, 2015

I decided to download both games again to play, but as soon as I boot up the game the main menu runs at 10-14 FPS.

In game is exactly the same.
My Specs:
GPU: 780ti
CPU: AMD 8350
RAM: 16GB 2300Mhz
OS: Windows 8 64-bit

In task manager, it says the game isn't using the CPU at all (even with the game window selected) and for some reason, if I Alt-Tab, the game jumps up to 200+FPS until I tab back to the game itself.

you tried any other drivers? it might just be the game, have you actually played the game and checked the frames or just gone into the menu?

Guest · Feb 15, 2015

I rolled back drivers and that didn't help (though I didn't roll back too far)
I did go into the actual game and it was the exact same thing. About 10 FPS.

very strange, whats it like on other games? you got battlefield?

Guest · Feb 15, 2015

Was playing Dying Light yesterday at 60 FPS, and Life is Strange this morning at well over 60 FPS.

must be the game mate, i have dying light and its a bit choppy for me unless i use vsync, i have a 970. some games are so poorly made for the pc.

Guest · Feb 16, 2015

It's frustrating because I remember playing the game just fine before, the only difference was that I had a 670 and not a 780ti. Same CPU and everything. I also tried the game on my MSI gaming laptop. The results were the same. What did they do in the last few months?

Arronleeds · Feb 16, 2015

i wonder if they updated it, ive never played it on pc, not a big fan of that series, if i had it id have checked it for you to see if i had the issue.

Arronleeds · Feb 16, 2015

let me get the game"somehow" and il test it out for you, its both thats doing it right?

Guest · Feb 16, 2015

Yes, Dead Island and Dead Island Riptide both

Arronleeds · Feb 16, 2015

Arronleeds · Feb 16, 2015

this game for me runs so smooth, its like cutting butter with a knife, when playing my fps is over 300, i wonder if your cpu is broken

It can't be the CPU. All my other games run perfect.
And like I said, I tried Dead Island on my laptop, which has an Intel i7-4800MQ CPU.

Guest · Feb 16, 2015

What OS are you using?
I'm using Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 respectively on my systems. I heard Dead Island has problems with 8.

Arronleeds · Feb 16, 2015

hmm, i didnt pay for it if you know what i mean so maybe they updated it which has caused it to crash, this game doesnt even use 700mb of vram and although im getting high fps it keeps dipping a lot, i dont think this game is optimized very well.

Arronleeds · Feb 16, 2015

i ran this game at 4k with 60fps or more, so its deffo either an hardware issue or a driver issue for you most likely. or maybe it doesnt like amd.

Guest · Feb 17, 2015

Hey Arronleeds, I found the problem.
Apparently it was a lot more simple than I thought. It was my antivirus.
It was causing the game to drop from being processed by my system, and since white-listing the games, they run at hundreds of frame per second.

I appreciate the help though, you went pretty far to help me.
