Hey guys!
So I've been playing a lot of Asphalt 8 the last couple of days (been home, sick) and I noticed that the graphics on my Surface 2 isn't as nice as on my friends iPad, even tho its "only" an iPad 4... Theres dynamic shadows, particle lensflare, and motion blur, all which is missing on my Surface 2. And the framerates seems to be better on the iPad aswel! The Surface should be far ahead in graphics performance, according to specs, and in, lets say 3Dmark RT, where the surface 2 scores around 14k points and the iPad 4 around 10k!
I'm guessing that the game hasn't yet been optimized for Windows RT.. but maybe it has something to do with the current NVIDIA driver, being as crappy as they are! The surface 2 should be able to handle these graphics as well, maybe even at smoother frame rates.... and, as a side note, according to 3Dmark RT it should be able to score at least the same as other Tegra 4 tablets and phones, and at the moment it doesn't (its at least 2000 points behind).
Just an observation, and a bit of frustration not getting the maximum out of my hardware! And not being able to own my friends ooooold iPad 4!
Cheers!
