It seems to be a complete lottery, to be honest. Most of the time, the performance is bad the moment I jump into the game. I've just reinstalled the game on my SSD drive, I'll see whether that helps when I get back home.

Looks like it's time to upgrade my GTX480, it has served me well!
Struggling to get a playable frame rate at Medium graphics @1080 even with my overclocked i5 4690K.

You should try playing with just an onboard GPU! A8-7600 is quite good though. Frame rates are low but game is playable. Still, trying to source a nice 2nd hand GPU now to go with my newer PC!
My nephews birthday sun and he is looking forward to his new PC and this game!

Ah, the no loading screen mod is back (was a version in Just Cause 2 for Black Market). I've not checked the mods for this recently, but are there multiple sites or is it just the one. The last time I did check, there were the inevitable mods that removed cooldowns for the black market vehicles and unlocked hidden items in the black market.
I hope there's a mod which adjusts the ratings for the challenges to make getting gears easier. While it's silly that I'd rather work for my unlocks, I will admit the current system is stupid, they should just give us the gears for completing a challenge once or something. I miss collecting things from Just Cause 2, while it wasn't everyone's cup of tea, one could just get a mod to make the upgrades free (not require collectibles) in that game.

I'm on a 4690k and my second hand 780 blitzes JC3, well in so much as it's above my monitor refresh rate for about 95% of the time and that's at 1200p.
I do see quite a lot of RAM usage though, even with nothing open in the background I'm up around 6.5-7.2GB of usage. VRAM is also on the very edge.
I use http://justcause3mods.com/ - just downloaded an "Unlock all gears" mod so you don't have to do all the crappy side missions.
Lovely

But, thats the game though! I am aiming to start afresh and complete the game fully this time
Good for you.
You bought the game to play it through, I bought the game to blow the daylights out of everything in sandbox mode.
Wouldn't life be boring if we all wanted to do the same things...

different strokes for different folks..
Ive used the mod that gives me extra teathers and more control off the wing suit.. just so it makes things more interesting for doing the missions.. the side missions will get done through time but like you I enjoy blowing things up

My favourite mod from Just Cause 2 was the extra long grapple hook, it went for miles!! That was awesome, I'd like to see that again. Anyone seen it?
Running from an SSD didn't change a damn thing regarding fps, I really hoped the game would run better. I guess I'll have to uninstall it altogether, not to keen on playing at 30fps.
Really fun game, but I guess it's a bit too much for my 970 at 1440p. The requirements are rather steep for how it looks on a technical level (but the artstyle and colours make it look great).

Strange how people with really good spec PCs are having issues with this game?

Im thinking its to do with the resolution. 1440p seems to be the main problem area.
Im still on 1080 and its running sweet.
just had about an hour of mayhem there

it gives 6 tethers.
and yea I used one of the mods off the site. gives the 6 tethers and the extra control of the wingsuit.
that's the only one ive used. its great for wrecking stuff with the tehers and lets you fly in with the wingsuit and land on your feet.

Yup, I didn't think 1440p would cause such monumental framerate drops. I incorrectly assumed that if Witcher 3 and GTA V ran nicely, this would too. Heck, even Syndicate runs better and it's easily playable
I'd understand having problems with maxing the game but I dropped shadows, LOD and textures to high, disabled bokeh/motion blur and only used FXAA.

Not sure about these res issues you guys are having, 1440 works fine for me. What sort of drops are you having?
Just a gut feeling, but 1440p working fine for you might have something to do with that top-of-the-line i7 and Titan X in your sig
