Brink gameplay on ATI Radeon 6970 (MSI r6970)

I made this video because there are a lot of people complaining about running Brink on an ATI card. I realize the problem may be showing in certain models, but as far as the 6970 goes all is good.

I run with pretty much everything maxed EXCEPT I turn off Ambient Occlusion

ATI Radeon 6970 2gb, Intel i5-2500k @ 4.3ghz, 8gb ram, Windows 7 64-bit, 1920x1200 resolution, 11.5a drivers. Offline and online play shown - some with bots some with all real players.

My Autoexec.cfg:
seta com_machineSpec 3
seta ui_fov 101
seta r_fullscreen 1
seta r_mode -1
seta r_customWidth 1920
seta r_customHeight 1200
seta r_useMotionBlur 1
seta r_multiSamples 16
seta r_useAntiAliasing 16
seta image_anisotropy 16
seta image_filter GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR
seta r_shadows 1
seta g_showplayershadow 1
seta r_useHBAO 0
seta r_softParticles 1
seta r_gamma 1
seta r_brightness 1
seta r_useHighQualityPostProcess 1
seta r_usePortals 0
seta r_useOptimizedShadows 0
seta g_skipViewEffects 0
seta g_skipParticles 0
seta r_useThreadedRenderer 0
seta g_decals 1
seta r_visDistMult 1.0
seta g_enemyTintEnabled 0

what's your FPS? why do you make a showcase video to show off how "playable" your game is and neglect to show your FPS?

[willb206]

@Dudemag Well the FPS I get in game drop by 10-15 when I record using Fraps so I intentionally left it out since it would not be accurate. The game is playable for me in the 50-70FPS range. Of course it could be better, but as of now this is what the game is performing like on my setup.

What's the name of the song/artist?

[willb206]

@gasseh The Glitch Mob - Fortune Days

I'd just like to point out that you he has turned portals off so he is rendering alot more than he can see. This is most likely why he is getting lower fps then he should be getting. (seta r_usePortals 0)

@TheL33tMoose Thanks I'll try that.

@assadissa2 People still know what he means, I mean there are still people saying "Agea PhysX" instead of "Nvidia PhysX".

[AntiHamster500]

Well Brink runs on the idTech4 engine, so it's a basic assumption that if you can run Doom3 or Quake4 on an ATI/AMD card you should have no problem running Brink. Although it seems the engine has gone through some pretty heavy modifications since then, nothing that makes it idTech5 but still if your having problems hopefully a patch fix or updated driver is released.

There's no more a ati company, just amd
