Laptop Owner Discovers the Real Monster in Monster Hunter Wilds is the System Requirements: ‘Ready for the Grave’

BBG News

Following the classic style of the Monster Hunter series, Monster Hunter Wilds proves to be incredibly challenging. Reminiscent of its predecessor, Monster Hunter Worlds, this sequel aims to test the limits of gaming technology. Unfortunately, PC gamers are discovering this firsthand, with one player reporting a benchmark result for Monster Hunter Wilds that only managed single-digit frame rates, even with an RTX 3050 Ti graphics card.

The disappointing performance in the benchmark test was demonstrated by the enthusiastic player known as u/vitamin_asspirin on Reddit, who is an avid fan of Monster Hunter Wilds. They shared their benchmark result on the platform, wondering if their gaming setup is up to the task for playing Monster Hunter Wilds. Regrettably, the benchmark only displayed a 3.68 frames per second (FPS) average, which is significantly lower than the more tolerable 30 FPS.

Do you think my laptop is ready?

Considering the PC gamer you mentioned is using a gaming laptop, it’s important to note that these systems are often designed to be compact and power-efficient. This means they may not perform as well as their desktop counterparts. As a result, even a powerful GPU like the RTX 3050 Ti might face challenges when running ‘Monster Hunter World’.

Given that the PC gamer in question is using a laptop for gaming, it’s worth noting that these devices are typically designed to be portable and power-efficient. This can impact performance compared to desktop systems. Consequently, a high-end GPU like the RTX 3050 Ti may struggle with ‘Monster Hunter World’.

As a fellow enthusiast of Monster Hunter, I can’t help but share the response I saw others give to u/vitamin_asspirin’s query: “Ready for the grave.” This was said with a determined yet humorous tone, given the circumstances. To be frank, playing Monster Hunter Wilds with your current setup seems highly unlikely, unless you’re prepared for an experience more akin to a PowerPoint presentation rather than the immersive gameplay we all know and love.

Some more experienced PC gamers with a tech background suggested that the benchmark results for u/vitamin_asspirin’s RTX 3050 Ti (even its laptop version) should be significantly higher. They suspect there might be an issue affecting the laptop’s performance. To put it into perspective, a less powerful GTX 1660 graphics card should have managed at least 30 frames per second on the lowest settings and in 1080p resolution, according to the system requirements of Monster Hunter World.

Not Exactly Unexpected for Monster Hunter Wilds

On a decent gaming setup, achieving only 3 frames per second (FPS) might seem excessive, but it’s not entirely surprising given the demanding hardware needs that Monster Hunter World is known for, even before its launch.

Capcom plans for PC players to run Monster Hunter Wilds with Nvidia’s Frame Generation technology, an artificial intelligence system that increases frame rate by generating “synthetic” 3D visuals. This specification has ignited some debate within the PC gaming community.

Despite previous beta versions and benchmarks suggesting otherwise, Capcom assures us that the final version of Monster Hunter Wilds, due out on February 28, will have superior performance. This improvement is something we’ll only fully appreciate once the game is released. Players like u/vitamin_asspirin and those concerned about their gaming hardware can rest assured, as the game should run more smoothly based on Capcom’s commitment to better performance.
