What happened to the different levels of AO ?

 

[razgriz417]

got my Gigabyte 970 from 2014, guess I am out of luck

me too, got FC4 with mine. Lucky to get a $20 code while they were still available on the BST thread

What happened to the different levels of AO ?

Good question. Perhaps they are streaming an older version with an older menu. Or the options are OFF, ON (their solution), and HBAO+

 

[FoeHammer]

This looked amazing on my One, can't wait to see what a maxed out PC build looks like.

They better not have taken out HBAO+ or else there will be blood.

The settings of the PC build the press played a few weeks ago looked more complete :

 

[RyudBoy]

I am still not 100% used to the Dualshock's button layout.

Whenever I play a game with QTE prompts I often press the wrong button because of that.

You can clearly see the arrows to the left and right are white in those settings while in your old shot the arrow on the right is grey.. This guy just is not turning up the settings all the way. Ambient Occlusion is probably off on HBAO+. On is probably the same as their custom AO for Xbox One.

Yep. AO seems to be Off -> On -> HBAO+

Yup.

edit - Confirmed SLI support.

 

[Piggus]

Sweet, the dude just confirmed SLI support.

 

[GavinUK86]

This is nearly max settings. Couple options there can still go one more right.

 

[Lime]

maybe im just super tired but there are no AA solutions, it seems?

 

[Dave_6]

If it's like the 2013 game, the AA options are on a different screen. (I'm not watching the stream)

 

[KainXVIII]

I see 2x SSAA
Also they play in 24 hz?

 

[madjoki]

FXAA, SSAA 2x / 4x were shown

 

[Kezen]

I really wonder what performance is like at max settings.

 

[GavinUK86]

Max preset. Goes up to very high. Shadow Quality and Sun Soft Shadows can still go up one more. FXAA, SSAA2x and SSAA4x antialiasing and double and triple buffered vsync available.

Spoiler

24hz LOL

. 144hz and ultra wide resolutions should work but they haven't tried it.

 

[Kezen]

Glad to see 24hz, the true cinematic experience.

Hum, "Purehair" has a very high setting.....
The "on" is what is used on xbone I suppose, and I also suppose the higher echelon is very expensive.

 

[Dave_6]

I never messed with it, but what is/are the differences between fullscreen and the exclusive fullscreen?

 

[J 0 E]

Any reviews for the Baba Yaga dlc?

 

[viveks86]

Sweet, the dude just confirmed SLI support.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS


Now I might actually buy the game!

 

[Stiler]

Game is looking good but why is her hair so......flowy? It's like it's full of helium or something with how it seems to just move around without gravity really affecting it or any wind.

 

[Xyber]

I never messed with it, but what is/are the differences between fullscreen and the exclusive fullscreen?

Fullscreen is borderless windowed mode, exclusive fullscreen is "normal" fullscreen.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I'm so glad they decided to include this.

 

[Flandy]

Isn't SSAA super demanding? Why not have MSAA as a middle ground?

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Isn't SSAA super demanding? Why not have MSAA as a middle ground?

Pretty sure TR2013 was the same thing, FXAA or SSAA. Maybe an engine thing?

 

[Kezen]

Isn't SSAA super demanding? Why not have MSAA as a middle ground?

MSAA can be as demanding as SSAA.
MSAA does not treat shader aliasing, and is hard to implement in deferred engines.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I'm working on the OT atm so all this info is super useful~

 

[Lime]

Isn't SSAA super demanding? Why not have MSAA as a middle ground?

MSAA is also very taxing considering its relatively poor effect.

 

[GavinUK86]

Low preset screenshots for those people with older systems.

And one bonus shot just because lol.

 

[Kezen]

It looks really dreadful at low settings, I have not looked closely at the 360 version but at first glance it's rather similar.
Which is good news of course, those with entry level stuff will get to play it.

In some of those it looks like they just turned off any form of lighting lmao

But wow, scalable!

 

[Adry9]

Looks very scalable, nice

 

[Zenaku]

Fuck, no 3D? Well, I suppose they could've fixed the problem shaders anyway, and simply left it out of the menu to save having to thoroughly test it, or offer proper support, but...chances are I'll have to play in 2D on a first run, fuck.

Just did a second playthrough of TR2013 last week, in 1440p 3D and it was glorious.

 

[Flandy]

We have any idea if this is going to be a midnight unlock?

 

[Tohsaka]

We have any idea if this is going to be a midnight unlock?

The Steam page says 1 day and 10 hours for me, so probably not unfortunately.

 

[Kureransu]

just bought a evea ftw 970 and got the game free with it. I was able to preload it on steam, so you guys are saying it won't be available at midnight?

 

[texhnolyze]

It's a midnight unlock here in Asia.



On January 29.

 

[Harlequin]

Huh, strange, the countdown on their official tumblr ends at midnight (at least in my timezone, I'm assuming it adjusts itself to whatever timezone you're in). But maybe that's just counting down to the day of release, rather than the Steam unlock?

 

[beeswax]

Fuck, no 3D?

This is indeed a disappointment, I'd hoped with the similarity in the engine, native stereoscopic support would be included. TR2013's 3D was the Avatar of 3D gaming, nothing has beaten it since.

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

Pretty sure SSAA is basically rendering the image at 2x (for 2xssaa) then down sampling it to your selected resolution.

nVidia's 3D Vision glasses? I wanted to try those. But with VR coming I don't see the point in spending the money.
Last time I saw 3D gaming was way back with some utter shit 'eDimensional' shutter glasses. Must of been around 2004 or 2005.

 

[j0hnny_385]

Just got email from cdkeys.com that my RoTR preorder key is available.
Will preload when I get from work. Yay! \o/

Good on them for showing off what minimum (?) specs translates into.

 

[viveks86]

Welp. SLI support swayed me. Game = bought!

I think at that res, that must be what he's using. I had to settle for standard 3DTV Play which is 720p60 but with 4XSSAA it still looked pretty nice. And as I said, the 3D was just amazing.

Me too. No email but it was there on my account when I checked.

So they are pretty reliable then? 38 bucks for a Steam code, I will jump on that if they are legit.


Such a sketchy name for a game sale website though!

also got my code. it's legit.

 

[BigTnaples]

Apparently you can use the PPID + SN from any GTX970 or GTX980 no matter what region you bought it in, as long as you select one of the Asia regions in the drop down box. Works even if your card came with a game originally. You can do that to get Rise of the Tomb Raider for free.

I bet they'll fix that loophole.

Even from a non ASUS 970?
