I just played this (5760x1080 with CF HD 6970 x2) a few weeks ago, I had no problems with it. Worked fairly smoothly (especially since how aged my rig is). If there's any issues I bet it's related due to certain hardware configurations, not with AMD as a whole.

This game got pretty low reviews.. it's no wonder they rushed it out the door, they don't even have eyefinity support right. (I already got suckered into buying the game myself, preordered it since I'm such a big XCOM fan)

It's not an eyefinity thing, it's just the game is extremely unstable in general (even at 1080p). If you really want to play, set all your quality to lowest, it makes it a lot more stable. I've had buddies tell me they were also able to play it on older PCs more successfully.

I ran on 2x6970 crossfire and it works like a dream (never had any crashes). Update to the latest drivers for starters (it boosts FPS, if you look at the changelog), otherwise it might be some kind of 7970-specific issue.

Works great in EyeFinity. Been playing for 5 hours straight, I didn't find any issues with it. It's also rock stable and hasn't crashed at all on me (using Catalyst 13.8 beta2 drivers) unlike some other new games. Good FPS too :). Recommend a buy to anyone who has played any of the previous Saints R...

Been trying to play this as well, if you go into Customize Gear with Eyefinity then you don't see the gear preview. Other than that, eyefinity seems OK. Unfortunately the game for me is crashing in just a few seconds with high graphics on. I tried turning off eyefinity, it gets better, runs for like...

There's just no point playing this in surround, HUD is stretched a lot, and you have to go to the sides of the surround monitors to scroll sideways. I played almost 100 hours in not-surround, much better.

Honestly releasing a strategy game in surround but then not centering the HUD is just teasing.

I'm really trying to be constructive here when I say this.. 2880x900 ? I have more pixels on my Nexus 10.

If you were selling this 5 years ago, I'm sure this would be fine, but please get your resolution up before this can be considered as a legitimate enthusiast product.

You could try posting on their beta forums under bug reports..? With a screenshot.

Personally I'd rather have a full time tactical map (key numpad 0) on my secondary monitor, but I doubt they would do anything for any multimonitor users.

I've pretty much given up trying to play strategy games on triple monitors. Even if it does work and the HUD isn't stretchd, it's usually spanned across all monitors. Even if all HUD was to be magically centered (hah, yeh right!), it's still a pain to scroll around left/right. And the extra FOV does...

This tool does nothing of the sort. No code injection, no intra-process redirection. There is only the NTFS junction (redirect) which is seamless to the user and games run on the machine. The process is relatively simple: Figure out which files to pre-load, generate a pre-calculated RamDisk based o...

I give up playing this game, mouse camera is way too jerky, and switching to a controller defeats the whole purpose of playing it on PC.

This tool sounds amazing, can you post a little more details on how you're doing it? Is it like the WS fixers where it injects new code into the game memory to overwrite the disk read/write calls, or is there something built into Windows that allows you to cache files into RAM?

That doesn't really make a lot of sense, move the monitor further away and adjust the height if people think it's too big. Either way the image is going to be more crisp (higher PPI). If you could find a 27" 2560x1600 monitor I guess that would be pretty great, most I've seen were 1920x1200 which at...

Well if you are getting dropped to below 60fps that should explain your mouse lag.. ideally you can't move around faster with your mouse than your frame speed :). If you were still getting mouselag with eyefinity on at 60fps then we could talk again. That being said, I'm genuinely curious if having ...

Nobody's making anyone run 3 apps. A person can install all 3 (or however many of them there are) then launch only the one with the fix for the game he wants. It's pretty simple. If you are telling me people honestly would rather use only 1 app and wait indefinitely for that author to add in game su...
