I'll run some more tonight. Clearly a significant sampling of folks are experiencing issues that hopefully will be identified soon.

Running on a laptop , native 1920x1080 , I have made no changes to the defaults in settings but will confirm them tonight. Fans did ramp up during play and i will ensure Frames are limited to 60FPS and check GPU resources and Thermals based on observations from other users.
I'll see if I experience any stability issues or bugs tonight as i get into the game further than the 3.5 hours I have spent.

MSI GS40 Phantom
Processor Intel Skylake Core i7-6700HQ CPU, quad-core 2.6 GHz, 3.5Ghz turbo
Chipset Intel HM170
Video integrated Intel HD 530 HD + Nvidia GeForce GTX 970M 3GB
Memory 16 GB DDR4 2133 PC4-17000
Secondary Mechanical HDD has been replaced with a 512GB SSD where BT is running from

If you have a 1060, be warned that there's a problem with this driver where people are getting stuck in an infinite loop of failed installs and reboots, solvable only by booting into safe mode and wiping all driver data from your computer, then doing a clean install of a previous driver version.

I managed to get lucky on that one (I have a 1060 and my GPU has been running fine since I updated my driver), but had I known about this problem, I wouldn't have risked it.

Good to know. I assume nVidia has been apprised via multiple bug submissions so they can fix it.
It has been a wonder for me on the 970GTX
GPU temps were in the 80s celcius prior to the driver update and do not break 60c post update.
I have turned off occlusion in game and set global vsync on for the driver and in game so some combination of those may have been a factor as well.
 
Just wanted to check in and say after the initial login issues on launch day, things have been working pretty well! Super fun time so far, about 10-12 hours in.

Running windows 10, intel platform, Geforce 1060 with the latest game ready driver. The game does start stuttering about 1-2 hours into a play session, seems like a minor memory leak or something causing a lot of paging to disk.
 
I'm hoping they fix the dice roll in this game , it makes it hard to strategize when I'm trying to hit a left arm or left leg and it's tlhitting the right , I understand the difficulty but I feel more like I'm getting lucky then actually being strategic please fix ,everything else I love , I love strategic games but when it's based on a on pure luck or a bad dice roll it looses it's fun... , Nothing worst then wining and one enemy gets lucky all his hits ,hit the body and it's a wrap not strategic at all , apart from that I love the game

I can't remember the hit tables to give you actual percentages, but if you are trying to hit the left side, then try manoeuvring to that side and firing from there. Unless you have enough morale to use precision shot to tip the scale sin your favour that's how the system works.

If you use precision shot and don't hover over any of the sections, it will tell you the regular hit percentages for that angle.

It would indeed, but alas I am one of those poor peons that has to actually show up at my place of employment once in a while in order to fund my seedy habit for giant robots. Otherwise I'd have it all to hand :p

I don't have them memorized, either - was just posting how to find the percentages (from my own place of employment; don't tell my boss).

I'm going to tell them right now........where do you work by the way :D
