If you wanted to test your PC to make sure your company's Dell workstation can run Wilds, now is the time!

You have to go to the store page for Wilds. It's one of the available downloads. And it's a pretty hefty download too... 27Gb.

The first step in the process is to compile shaders, so the download contains the game's shaders? This explains the size.

The second step of the process, which happens during the shader compiling, is the benchmarks crashes. After a restart the compiling goes faster, but then it just hangs for a long time. Maybe that's step three in the process, hang and pretend to do something.

Another thing, the benchmark hates Discord. I can't run Discord while the benchmark is hanging running.

I killed the process and started over. I got to choose a language, then it crashed again. Is this the test? If you can run the benchmark, the game will run? Not looking good for me.

I tried several more times, but the benchmark won't run on my PC.

Steam says my play time for the benchmark is 33 minutes... it's like I'm being mocked.

Maybe you'll have better luck than me. Happy Hunting Benchmarking!
