Most environments are 100+FPS. | Mac mini M1 8GB | I was running using Rosetta 2. FPS is solid and load times are good. It performs significantly better than previous macs, and the thermals are fantastic! This game used to burn up my intel mac laptop, on M1 it's cool. FPS would tank on Intel macs after the boost on the CPU ended. Now it's consistently over 100. Additionally, this game would usually make my intel 2018 MBP throttle to a flat 800MHz. FPS in game would be 15FPS during those episodes of intel throwing a fit. Exponential improvement. Words cannot describe how big this is. There is a respectably high FPS in crowds, which is notoriously this game's weak point. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
