S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl Performance

jmke · 19th March 2007, 17:46

It’s been a long time coming - the game was originally scheduled for a 2003 release - but for the most part it has been worth the wait. Stalker may not be quite the revolution it was once heralded as and it has its fair share of problems, but there’s a great deal to like about the gameplay and the wonderfully realised environment in which it is set.

Please let us know your impressions once you spend some time playing. Thinking about picking this one up myself.

So far I can tell it's CPU limited because it is not multithreaded, my 4400+ x1800XT 512MB combination is only good for 20+ FPS (which is still good for this game tough).

Leave grass shadows OFF if you are CPU limited (see review)!
