That's completely bloody bonkers

 So that's an extra bonus or spoiler I suppose.NVIDIA 337.50 beta drivers promise some rather ridiculous gains. By Alex Walker on April 8, 2014 at 6:42 am The patch notes were released into the wild for NVIDIA's 337.50 beta drivers yesterday, although it's only as of early this morning that the drivers are now downloadable (either directly through the NVIDIA website or through GeForce Experience). What's so special about this driver? It's the small note at the top. Introduces key DirectX optimizations which result in reduced game-loading times and significant performance increases across a wide variety of Dofus games, the notes say. What follows is, quite frankly, some of the most absurd performance gains that I can ever remember Dofus Power Leveling seeing in a driver update since, well, AMD praising gains under Mantle. Have a read:GeForce GTX 700 Series (Single GPU):Up to 64% in Total War: Rome II Up to 25% in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Up to 23% in Sleeping Dogs Up to 21% in Star Swarm Up to 15% in Batman: Arkham Origins Up to 10% in Metro: Last Light Up to 8% in Hitman Absolution Up to 7% in Sniper Elite V2 Up to 6% in Tomb Raider Up to 6% in F1 2013 GeForce GTX 700 Series (SLI):Up to 71% in Total War: Rome II Up to 53% in Sniper Elite V2 Up to 45% in Aliens vs. Predator Up to 31% in Sleeping Dogs Up to 20% in CoD: Black Ops 2 Up to 10% in Hitman Absolution Up to 9% in F1 2013 Up to 7% in Far Cry 3 Up to 6% in Metro: Last Light Up to 6% in Batman: Arkham Origins Considering the recent WHQL drivers released for the Titanfall release, these figures are nuts. 20% gains in any game is fairly significant if you're already getting around 50-60 fps. But 64? 64 percent. That's completely bloody bonkers. I'm running a dual GTX 780 rig and the sight of 71% for Total War and 31% in Sleeping Dogs a game which I actually have installed right now is a little staggering.A report on Anandtech has also found some nice gains in Bioshock: Infinite. And, as they rightly point out, this isn't the full list of Dofus games that gain performance increases under the new driver release. Either way, if you're a fan of the Big Green, today's a good day to be a Dofus gamer especially in Sydney with all this cloudy weather around.Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel's over-the-top Australianism was a pleasant surprise for Gearbox. By Tim Colwill on October 9, 2014 at 1:27 pm The Australian Dofus games industry isn��t what it used to be. Between 2009 and 2011, most of the major Dofus games companies in Australia folded, sank, wrapped up, shut down, or just disappeared. Even publishers who only had a marketing and distribution presence in the country pulled out or closed up shop, leaving the country bereft of companies but awash with talented developers many of whom left for overseas work, or started their own indie businesses.But through it all, 2K Australia or ��Irrational Studios Australia��, as you may know it has soldiered quietly on.
