One thing with Vulkan though is a rather sluggish mouse movement in UI. However, with Vulkan I get TAA, Tesselation, gunner cockpits and less non-critical bugs (OpenGL shows square shadows and smoke looks rather weird). What driver version? As far as performance goes: I have pretty much everything maxed out and reach around 60fps on 2560x1440 both with Vulkan and OpenGL. THANK YOU for that idea - increased my performance even more (i only have a i5 3550 with a rx580) Quoting: mylkahave you tried switching the windows version to vulkan?Īt least less CPU usage. You can find it free on Steam or the official site. Performance seems reasonable too, mostly sitting well above 60FPS and it feels nice and smooth on high settings. The Linux version can be a little twitchy though, I've seen a number of distorted textures on the sides of some mountain/hill areas and the initial big update did have a few crashes, although it seems to have had another smaller update since and now it's working great. Since it's not something I play too often, I forgot just how good some of the scenery can be: The tank battles especially are exciting and I love the way you see how you got taken out, as it shows the shells hitting your vehicle taking out your crew. With this large update, I'm excited to jump back in and play some more. I've just recently got back into War Thunder and while I find it a little pushy on the in-game shop and the UI is pretty messy, the actual gameplay they provide free really is damn fun.
