Graphical Fidelity I Expect This Gen

thank god for pc. Holy shit, simply pushing the settings up into pc exclusive territory fixes most of my graphical complaints concerning the lighting... Just why the fuck didn`t they show this before in gameplay vids? Maybe because then it suddenly becomes just as heavy as all other games with that sort of tech?

Still watching DF vid but yeah the console RT solution was clearly compromised, I wonder if it can be fixed later.

Cinematic settings aside, what sort of hardware do you need to enable all that RT stuff? I don't play a lot of modern games so there's a lot of mumbo-jumbo I'm not familiar with, like ray reconstruction.

4070 for 1440p and 5070ti for 4K

But for Cinematic settings (that are above ultra) - 5080/4090 for 4K output.

I think this table is using native resolutions?

With DLSS anything with enough ram can play this at high settings. 4070ish performance?


I'm sure even lower end gpus can do it.

I have a 5800X, a 4070 Super and 32GB of delicious RAM. You think I could be able to play this at 2K, High/Ultra, with DLSS Quality/Performance while enabling all that cool RTX stuff?

I think with 1440p output and DLSS Quality - you will be able to run Ray Reconstruction and mix of high/ultra/cinematic settings without problem.

But of course, we will know final performance when the game launches.

That would be amazing. Can't wait to try out the game, and here's hoping it comes with a nice benchmark tool for us mid-range peasants to test it properly before starting the game.

Thanks both of you Bojji Bojji and metareferential metareferential for the feedback!

DF in the latest video show a 5080 averaging around 50ish fps cinematic settings and ray reconstruction (dlss perf).

I'm sure some updates in the day one patch and some tinkering in settings might push that up.
 
RE9 finally accomplishes what I've been waiting for since REmake was released in 2002.
Pompous, photorealistic horror house environments, but now in real-time 3D.
I never want to leave the care center, ever... :messenger_smiling_hearts:

I still remember playing Frogger on a VCS 2600 on a tiny b/w CRT at my cousin's house in the 80s.
It's completely bonkers being able to experience the evolution of video game graphics over the last 40 years firsthand!

Just as a comparison, playing the Avatar DLC right now, and maxed out Ultra settings at DLSS 4k performance, i get 77 fps with ray reconstruction on. And this game has RT shadows which Crimson does not.

Definitely heavier than other games maxed out which is funny because of all the hype over how this engine is so much more performant.
 
Never mind…once you enable the REAL highest settings "Cinematic Quality" settings, the game gets very demanding.

RTX 5080 Cinematic quality 4K DLSS Perf w/ RR can't reach 60fps even in what seems to be a very secluded & quiet area…

Damn Im so happy I dont give a shit about ramerate lol.

To me anything above 30 is just fucking more cheese on the pizza bro.

50FPS ... with those graphics is just unreal. Cant imagine not being happy with this. you PC gamers are spoiled AS FUCK man, lol.

lol no. 5080 with dlss performance so 1080p internal resolution is maxing out at 51 fps with ray reconstruction. maybe if you turned off ray reconstruction, but dont do that.

just drop to ultra settings. it runs fine at ultra settings.
So wait, if the 5080 is getting 50fps with those settings... the 5070Ti wouldnt be able to hit 30?

5080 is hitting 50 fps with dlss performance, not native 4k like you asked.
 
human vision is boring. i have access to photorealistic graphics every day and im bored to death. i turn to movies and games for escapism, for stuff i cant get when i walk outside.

These post processing effects have been in movies for decades now. they are tried and true. im ok with devs giving people an option to remove them but i want what movie cinematographers have been doing for close to a century. give me something more than just photorealism.

i can promise you France during world war 2 in saving private ryan did not look like a ww2 documentary. Spielberg went with that look because he's a genius who knew you cant just shoot the movie on location as is.

if anything, i wish more and more hollywood cinematographers were hired by games to give them that filmic look. The order still holds up today because they shot everything like a movie. Killzone 2 also went all in on post processing effects and that resulted in a 183 ms input lag. but it looked glorious. these effects also help with the cg look we all want so bad.

give me this next gen and i will die happy.
