n123 Number of benchmarks for this median value / * Approximate position With high-end devices the game sometimes runs more fluidly on normal graphics settings than on low settings.After settings changes the screen often goes black.In general, the frame rates vary more with AMD cards than with Nvidia models. After load operations, AMD models have to cope with short drops in performance.Worst case scenario, the screen freezes completely. If an Intel graphics accelerator is installed, the menus' responsiveness is jerky and there are delays that last more than a second.The Enduro graphics switching is probably partly responsible for that (the Catalyst 13.11 Beta 9 was unfortunately released too late for us to use it in our tests). AMD GPUs compute - especially at moderate settings - slower than their Nvidia counterparts.You get the shortest load times with Nvidia graphics cards.Although the graphics aren't all that different, the game needs considerably more hardware power than Black Ops II.Couldn't they have put some of the options on a separate screen, so the player wouldn't have to scroll for so long? Also annoying: Most changes automatically force the game to restart.Īll this, combined with the following bugs and inconsistencies, arouse the suspicion that Ghosts wasn't really optimized for the PC: No, etc.) and the lack of user-friendliness. We're less fond of the chaotic naming scheme (On vs. For instance, in terms of anti-aliasing variants, Activision integrated FXAA, MSAA, SMAA and TXAA. The ego-shooter doesn't offer any global presets, but PC users will still be excited about all the possible settings. On the plus side, there are a lot of options. The graphics menu also leaves us ambivalent. Like its main competitors, its load times could be shorter too. Despite its mediocre texture quality, Ghosts takes up about 40 GB of hard drive space. The game's enormous space requirement is another shortcoming.

Even Battlefield 4, which plays in a whole other league in terms of visuals and sound, doesn't demand this much.

Without 6 GB of working memory (they claim it only needs a maximum of 2 GB), a graphics card that supports DirectX 11, and a 64-bit operating system, Ghosts refuses to function. The title also deserves criticism for its steep hardware demands.
