i7 8700K as recommended CPU? Wow.

 

[Stuart360]

A 3070 for 1080/60 ultra?, wow. i guess that means the console versions are either 1080p. or 30fps.

 

[KyoZz]

RTX 3070 for ultra @1080p and not bad?

 

[lh032]

A 3070 for 1080/60 ultra?, wow. i guess that means the console versions are either 1080p. or 30fps.

you do know visual setting exist right? Console probably in mid settings without RT and such. So 60fps is still possible

 

[Bulletbrain]

The recommended specs are for ultra incl. full RT? If not, they don't make sense.

 

[Stuart360]

i7 8700K as recommended CPU? Wow.

Yeah but then it also lists a Ryzen 3600, which is a bit behind a 8700k.
Thats why you take these spec sheets with a pinch of salt. Much worse PC's that that will be able to run this game just fine.

 

[adamsapple]

Consoles probably nowhere close to touching PC Ultra I reckon. Likely a DRS 1440p/60 or something thereabout.

 

[Stuart360]

Of course, like with most console versions. Still lowering the settings to like medium isnt suddenly going to give consoles a 4k/60 version.

RT probably is taken into account with those recomended settings too.

 

[Jaybe]

Hope they are using all that power for something that dazzles and it isn't simply poorly optimized

 

[Draugoth]

3070/6800xt for 1080p 60fps Ultra, Bruh

That's where DRS comes in.

nah i dont expect 4k, i expect maybe dynamic scaling 4k or 1440 maybe?, mid textures, lower LOD, lower shadow quality, and some extra features missing on console and definitely no RT .
Its a realistic expectation from me.

PC ultra setting probably included max RT i guess.

I still believe theres a 60 fps mode for consoles though, if it doesnt, too bad i guess.

 

[Stuart360]

I mean the orig game was very demanding too at ultra. It used ike 80-90% gpu usage when i had my 980ti at 1080p ultra.

Seems a bit heavy for 1080p 60fps but I'll assume that's without DLSS being taken into account.

Probably going to get shit for saying this but the first game looked spectacular and played well for me at 4k 30fps with everything cranked.

Not sure why you would get shit for saying that, the first game was a beautiful game, albeit a pretty standard invisible coridoor game.

Wouldn't call it a "corridor game" by any means unless that's what we are calling anything that isn't open world these days? While it did funnel you down a single path, which is to be expected given it's story driven nature, some of the play areas were still relatively open and allowed you to take multiple paths (and/or use different tactics) in order to progress.

Thoroughly enjoyed my time with it and if the 2nd is more of the same then I'm in.

 

[Bonfires Down]

No SSD required? Weak sauce.

 

[remember_spinal]

This is why I'll always prefer console

 

[winjer]

This game must be pushing hard on RT effects to require a 3070 to do 1080p 60fps.

 

[Cryio]

The first game ate my 5700 XT for breakfast. Almost 1080p120 maxed out or 1440p60.

Better visuals and RT this time around? Of course I'm expecting higher requirements.

Interesting to see more devs moving up to DX12 Feature Level 12_0 as a base spec (goodbye GCN1 and pre-Maxwell v2 GPUs). They'll probably still work on Linux thought with Vulkan, lol.

 

[Black_Stride]

1080p60 Ultra needs an RTX3070?

Is this with RT?
Cuz a 6800XT should walk a 3070 in pure raster right?

 

[Del_X]

Hoping a 3080 ti can do 4k with dlss balanced and ultra ray tracing settings

 

[GymWolf]

O

A 3070 for 1080/60 ultra?, wow. i guess that means the console versions are either 1080p. or 30fps.

Or just low settings.

??? Because there we have to swallow whatever "state/quality" the game is delivered?

 

[legacy24]

next gen has arrived

 

[remember_spinal]

??? Because there we have to swallow whatever "state/quality" the game is delivered?

Because I'd rather not wait until the week before release to find out if my 2000 dollar pc can run it at 1080/60fps like a modern console can without issues

Your 2000 dollar pc can run it at 1080p60.
I could have told you that last year.

 

[skit_data]

Will be interesting to see how the consoles (Series S especially) fares when the recommended specs for 1080p 60fps is a fucking 3070.

 

[rodrigolfp]

without issues

Tell us more...

 

[tusharngf]

must be a typo 3070? RAT density plus RT effects needs a 20TF gpu?

 

[GymWolf]

So this is the famous gaf xbox secret discord uh?!

 

[BusierDonkey]

So this is the famous gaf xbox secret discord uh?!

Needed more green

 

[KXVXII9X]

My poor laptop... I can just hear the fans. I don't mind too much if I have to turn stuff to medium with no RTX.

 

[BigbyTheSheriff]

Will be interesting to see how the consoles (Series S especially) fares when the recommended specs for 1080p 60fps is a fucking 3070.

Minimum specs are rather modest so I think 1080p with a mix of low and medium settings at 30 FPS.

 

[GHG]

Look at what they did to all the poor Sony pony's:

 

[sankt-Antonio]

While I dislike actually handholding in games, this looks like a glimpse of next gen to me.

 

[SportsFan581]

A 3070 for 1080/60 ultra?, wow. i guess that means the console versions are either 1080p. or 30fps.

Probably a case of the consoles not being "ultra" more than anything else.

 

[ACESHIGH]

So consoles will run this at 1080 60 medium then? 3070 is a tier above of both next gen consoles.
Proper next gen medium (or hell even low) settings should still look great.

 

[poppabk]

A 590 for 1080p 30fps at low? My 570 accepts your challenge.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

3070 for 1080p 60? Assuming RT is at maximum that still sounds like a lot of power for this.

 

[TintoConCasera]

like a modern console can

 

[MikeM]

The PC vs Series X/PS5 comparison videos are going to be very interesting.

Wouldn't shock me if the game is vram heavy which ruins the 3070

 

[Kataploom]

I'm done with my 1060 3GB and just got it last year lol, can't get a new GPU now nor a console, so I'm gonna try it and see how it runs, I'm ok with sub 1080p@60 fps at medium anyway, the GPU is my only bottleneck since I meet or exceed the rest

 

[Black_Stride]

Wouldn't shock me if the game is vram heavy which ruins the 3070

min-spec 1080p is a 3.5GB card.
I doubt itll be VRAM limited at rec-spec.

 

[twilo99]

I was hopping to go 1440p ultra with my 6800xt .. maybe I can with VRR

 

[twilo99]

Cuz a 6800XT should walk a 3070 in pure raster right?

I don't know about walk, but its certainly better based on my experience with both cards.
