Avast ye scurvy dogs! 'Tis a dire situation – the landlubbers with Intel Arc GPUs be raisin' a ruckus, claimin' that the cursed game won't even set sail! Arrr!
Intel has received negative feedback from users regarding its Arc graphics cards in relation to the release of Starfield. Although Starfield is not officially out yet, those who have purchased the premium version of the game can access it in early access. However, only users with AMD or Nvidia GPUs can play the game, as Intel's Arc driver does not support Starfield. Reports on social media indicate that Starfield does not work at all on Intel Arc graphics cards. Users complain that while the game appears to be running in the background, the game window itself does not appear. This has caused frustration among fans who were eagerly anticipating the game's release.Intel has acknowledged the issue and stated that they are working on a fix, but it will not be available until next week. The company tweeted an update on the situation, assuring users that they are striving to improve the gaming experience. The inability to play Starfield on Intel Arc graphics cards is a disappointment for users, especially considering the progress Intel has made with its graphics drivers for Alchemist GPUs.
The incident has dampened the excitement surrounding Intel's upcoming Battlemage GPU and its potential to challenge the graphics card duopoly. The Starfield affair has overshadowed Intel's progress in the graphics card market and their efforts to provide high-performance GPUs for both newer and older games. Despite this setback, users are still looking forward to the future of Intel's graphics cards and their potential to disrupt the market.
