Mix of high, medium and low. FSR to quality with TAA disabled. TAA causes extreme blur with FSR enabled. Leave framerate unlocked as limiting FPS significantly increases loading times.
TDP to 11
Performance is to poor to be enjoyable, conveniantly the lengthy tutorials are good enough to get you past refund window.
Despite being deck verified the only part of the game that ran above 25fps on default settings was the 2 hour tutorial... Once commencing the actual game the performance was between 10-20 fps when around any stations, fleets, gates or anything else really, only in open space with no other objects around could it get above 30. Disabling SMT helped however I still would not consider this playable as most of the time the game was still in the low 20's.
Tried several step to improve performance including switching to the native linux version (defaults to Proton), decreasing traffic density and dropping setting to lowest. Honestly don't know how this received verified status.
Despite this the game itself is great, just not on steam deck.
It's just not enjoyable given the terrible performance, even at the lowest possible settings. Looks horrible, runs horrible.
Having to change to native from default proton prevents cloud sync with windows PC
Game regularly drops to single digit fps anywhere but in empty space. Should not be verified.
Still crashes despite supposed fix.
This game has destroyed my faith in the verification system. People say it's not there for performance however there's a big green tick next to "This games default settings perform well on the steam deck." Go figure
