How to Unlock FPS in The Surge 2

For some reason, The Surge 2 can’t go more than 60 fps even if VSync is turned off and the Frame Rate Limit option is set to 160 fps. This is annoying if you have a powerful PC and a 144Hz or a 240Hz monitor and want to play the game at a higher frame rate.

This is how you unlock FPS in The Surge 2.

1. Make sure that the VSync option in-game is set to OFF, Frame Rate Limit is set to 160, and the graphics quality is set lower than HIGH.

Also, turn off the VSync and triple buffering option in driver setting.

 

2. Close the game and go to Documents -> The Surge 2 folder.

3. Open the settings.ini and look for max_frame_rate line.

4. If you can’t find the max_frame_rate line, add it to the bottom of the file. Put a value high enough that your PC cannot reach. In our example, we put 200.

5. Save and close the file.

 

Surge 2 is now unlocked. Enjoy the game.

Though started gaming win NES Classic and Famicom, my love for PC gaming started in the late 90s with Command and Conquer Red Alert, Warcraft II, and PC versions of Golden Axe, Street Fighter, Prehistorik, Prince of Persia and many others. It also started my interest in PC hardware and software starting with DOS and Windows 3.11. I have been a computer technician for several internet cafes and retail stores in 2010s and that's also when I started writing for GamingPCBuilder.com
