Support NeoGAF

[GHG]

Not while I’m driving

But you can post on Neogaf while driving?

 

[nowhat]

For those of us that are time-zone challenged

...just go to google and type "$TIME_WITH_TIMEZONE in $YOUR_LOCAL_TIMEZONE". So in my case, WRT this announcement, that would be "6pm cet in eet".

(or "eest" for half of the year - I wish EU would get with the program and get rid of daylight saving time)

(edit: I do know how to add 1 or 2 to any given number, so I don't do this with CET or UTC, but it's helpful when dealing with timeszones across the pond)

 

[LectureMaster]

Maybe......we shall see.

If you have an end game save, just go into NG+, it added good stuff that quite elevates the build and combat variety.

 

[Bartski]

But you can post on Neogaf while driving?

Yes, I specialize in traffic light stop reaction gif shitposting

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

12pm EST? Still no stream up on Twitch, or does it not go live til right at noon? I'm confused.

Edit: stream is up now. OMG this music takes me back. so good!

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

It should look like this.

I love that people have such specific expectations for this update. It's like they have this secret knowledge that the rest of us don't have.

 

[GladiusFrog]

Getting my body ready for this reveal!

 

[gaming_again]

It's started. Two hours early, but whatever.

 

[analog_future]

Video is started. Right off the bat I feel like this looks damn good.

 

[R6Rider]

It's started. Two hours early, but whatever.

No it didn't. Started when it was scheduled.

 

[RoadHazard]

Goddamn, just about missed this. But I'm in!

 

[BigbyTheSheriff]

So far (for PC at least):

Ultra+ settings.
RTGI.
Photo Mode.

 

[RoadHazard]

Yeah, I hate that super close camera, will not be using.

 

[R6Rider]

Yeah, I hate that super close camera, will not be using.

I kind of like it. Will have to try myself to decide.

 

[gaming_again]

The sheer turbo nerdiness of this guy with the pony tail gives me hope it’s in good hands. Flashback to my uncles DnD group in the early 90s.

 

[R6Rider]

NICE. Dualsense features.

 

[jufonuk]

What does the switch version have ?

 

[BoxFresh123]

PS5 haptics and adaptive triggers

 

[BoxFresh123]

Fast sign casting is great

 

[analog_future]

I really like the idea of real-time sign build usage

 

[GladiusFrog]

Sold, Day fucking 1.

Looks really good and the quality of life improvement for the signs is perfect.

 

[NeonGhost]

If they don’t add the blue stripes tattoo to the console version it’s a complete fail

 

[Umbasaborne]

Cant watch at work, any meaningful graphical updates?

 

[ThisIsMyDog]

What does the switch version have ?

360p

 

[Mr Hyde]

It should look like this.

It doesn't look like this.

 

[alucard0712_rus]

WTF?! No ray-traced shadows on PC? pffft...
Great it's free at least.

 

[Braag]

Yeah, I hate that super close camera, will not be using.

I like that angle when exploring but in combat I prefer it to be little further away.

The quick sign cast system seems so much better than always going into the menu to change the sign.

 

[Thief1987]

It looks the same. What is "nextgen" about it? Photomode?

 

[Bulletbrain]

Close camera and quick sign casting were two essential mods I've always used. Nice to see they are incorporated as features.

Graphics wise however, doesn't look like a big jump.

 

[jufonuk]

360p

 

[TheRedRiders]

Ray Traced Global Illumination…let’s go!!

 

[RoadHazard]

Maybe it's just the stream, but the game looks the same to me. A bit better lighting maybe.

 

[geary]

It's not a remaster or a remake. It's just a patch....What were you expecting?

 

[OverHeat]

My PC is ready!!! Bye bye life

 

[Kenpachii]

They basically added a few mods and called it a next gen update? lamo.

 

[smart_brazileiro]

It's not a remaster or a remake. It's just a patch....What were you expecting?

Ah.. You're that guy this time. Atta boy.

 

[NeonGhost]

It's not a remaster or a remake. It's just a patch....What were you expecting?

Not waiting for 2 and half years

 

[SLB1904]

It's not a remaster or a remake. It's just a patch....What were you expecting?

Remake. Mostly that shitty gameplay

 

[BoxFresh123]

Hoping the NetFlix stuff has new monster contracts

 

[analog_future]

It looks the same. What is "nextgen" about it? Photomode?

Ray tracing, near-ultra settings on consoles, DLSS support, FSR 2.1 support, etc.. etc..

 

[Haggard]

Doesn`t even look as good as what you get on PC with just the "best of" list of mods on NexusMods for the game.......
Very disappointing.

 

[Hugare]

30 FPS for RTGI on consoles is disappointing, but I'll take it

I have a capable PC, but long games like this I enjoy playing on my couch.

40 FPS would have been perfect. FSR 2.1 will also be huge for a better IQ compared to the horrible TAA implementation in the original.

I'm surprised by the amount of work put here. RTGI, textures, mods (close camera + fast sign), photo mode, changes to the map, changes to subtitles sizes ...

Well done, CDPR. For a free update this was above and beyond what I was expecting.

Edit: PAUSE IN CUTSCENES! And immersive HUD! Great QOL improvements

 

[Thief1987]

Ray tracing, near-ultra settings on consoles, DLSS support, FSR 2.1 support, etc.. etc..

And it's still looks the same.

 

[BoxFresh123]

PAUSING CUT-SCENES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

worth the wait

 

[Kenpachii]

That's where the budget went into, full voiced chinese

 

[NeonGhost]

Ray tracing, near-ultra settings on consoles, DLSS support, FSR 2.1 support, etc.. etc..

For 30fps*

 

[BigbyTheSheriff]

 

[analog_future]

And it's still looks the same.

So then don't play the free patch if you feel that way.

These idiotic comments hurt my brain lol

 

[Ezekiel_]

On PS5 : performance and quality modes, dynamic resolution, FSR 2.0.

DualSense features fully supported

 

[BoxFresh123]

No mention yet about fixing Roach randomly stopping and freaking out when galloping
