      1. Oops. I’m still in the mindset that THQ has been dismantled even though the logo appear as soon as I boot up the game. :))

        Plus, you got to admit Nordic Games sounds better. 😛

  1. what problem AMD gpu have with this game?i thought the game would at least running solid on AMD hardware because originally this was supposed to be AMD sponsored game.

  2. I have an i5 and had a high CPU usage before the patch. (above 80%)
    After the patch it’s better, CPU usage stays in the 50~60%
    Also I can get 60+ FPS at 1440p on a GTX660.
