Earlier today the metacritic score was in the 60s but then it went up 10 points. That's why you see those comments.

It doens't have stutter, people who had it was playing the game without the day one patch that introduce a long shader compile process when you start the game.
The purples are trying to find any reason to shit on the game so if many of them have zero stutter, i tend to believe it's true.

It wasn’t clever/funny the first 20 times other people said it. But ok.

If that's the case then good news. I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy this then.

Don't know about the combat because my controller won't work properly,but the graphics are definitely as good
In any case, it's not far from that. It's not like they bulshitted us or anything about what the game really is. It's an impressive game coming from a young studio.
It's just that now that i'm in the open world, i feel that maybe the game has an identity crisis. The immersive sim side drags it down. It's not as fun as it should be
The game is a not-so-subtle tool of current Russian imperialism, there is no way to deny this fact.
Whether you feel ok with it or not and/or you think it is not worse than any average dumb shooter glorifying US army is up to you though.

The immersive sims\bioshock side is what make the game more interesting to me over a pure shooter like doom or a shlooter like borderlands.
I don't care if combat\movements are not as tight as doom, i don't even like pure shooter THAT much.

It is an opinion based on observation. And I am not resentful of Sony's success, I enjoy their games too. But it would be nice if fantastic games from other companies (and parts of the world that aren't US and Japan) got a fairer shake too.

Haha but my point was exactly that, dismissing games because of how they look. I bet you looked at Doki Doki and thought it's one of those games about dating anime girls. Trust me, it's much more.
And same for the other ones I listed, they are great and it saddens me that there's people refusing to even try them because they don't have the budget of bigger titles, while maybe their gameplay design makes up for that by a lot.
But it's fine, as you said not every game is for everyone.
Finally, can't believe we agree on something.
Yeah they need to deliver more games for sure. And I for one welcome Starfield having being delayed, that gameplay reveal left me cold.
I don't care about Xbox too much either. For me the perfect combo has always been PC + Nintendo console, with the ocassional Sony exclusive thrown in there. It's just that the later hasn't released anything that appeals to me during this gen, yet (hopefully).

I find that trailer impressive as hell even today, as in, it could have come out today and I would find it impressive. And the game delivers.

After rewatching it i noticed lot of meh textures here and there, the final game seems more even.
But it could be yt compression at 1080p.

Shouldn't it have unlocked already on GP? I went back to my region and it still says "preinstall".

Those playing on the peasant console PS5 and Xbox Series X, are there any graphical options, or is it just plug and play and you get what you get?
Also, any word on if the PS5 versions uses dual sense stuff? I can see myself double dipping down the road after a deep sale.

I wonder if this is another low scoring gem

You dismiss games on how they look too lol. Not by graphics, but other things too and there is nothing wrong with it.
Yeah, sure. Much more.
Saddens you?
Finally? that was my initial argument. Delays are good, but it better be worth the wait.Finally, can't believe we agree on something.

Maybe their multiplayer side of things might interest you, because SP they ain't changing it.

- (Dynamic) 4k @ 60 fps on both. Looks and plays superbly. The only big disappointment: No HDR!
- The back cover of the physical release says "Vibration/Rumble and trigger effects supported".

I think this game will be greatly defended if they issue some impactful patches post launch. I don't think most gamers will have an issue with the narrative tone like the reviews have.

I'm not saying that because i don't like immersive sim, i really like them, but shooters too. I just feel Atomic Heart, considering many things like its structure, would be better if it was purged from some specific influences.
And Bioshock is a particular case because it's not really an immersive sim, or at best it's a very light one. But it's also a good example of what i'm saying because when the devs decided to make a game that wouldn't be as deep as System Shock or other titles, they got rid of certain elements that wouldn't fit.
Like the inventory. You can get your health kit up to 9 and that's it. And when you get a new weapon, you just have it, it doesn't take any slot, you don't have to make a choice.
Here in Atomic Heart i was caught by surprise when i realised any health kit take a slot in your inventory like basically any item (except ammo that you can obviously stack until a certain amount). I was wandering in the world asking myself "why am i not dropping any pack of health anymore ?" because at this point this system felt so out of place with what the game was i completely forgot about it. And that's the same for the weapons i already had crafted thinking "i'm going to have fun with all these different weapons" except it's actually more Deus Ex than Bioshock.
And it's not only that, but plenty other things. I don't want to go into details because perhaps the game will actually work for me in its own way. It's too soon to say.

Just realized that the game has no RT support at launch. That's crazy for a game that was seeing RT tech demos pretty much every year since 2018
KyoZz
Tag, you're it.
Damn it look amazing on PC
On PC? There is a RT benchmark available since more than 2 years I think so that would be crazy to not implement it at launch

No HDR either. Really disappointing. Hopefully both features will be added over time.

I haven't missed RT yet tbh. Game looks fantastic as is. But I am sure they will add it, hopefully well optimized.
My rating of the first 4 hours is 9/10. The creativity, atmosphere, immersiveness, gunplay feel, all is on point.

I played for only 2 hours but the game is amazing so far. Solid gameplay, an interesting world and a lot of faecal language (good old Duke Nukem style)

Do you mean this forum or some other?

Wow, I played a bit on seriesX and it looks way better than I expected. Art direction is very appealing. Ant this dystopian Russian world is fascinating to me because it's done by Russians, feeling more authentic and weird because that.
I wanted to play it because I love Bioshock games and I must say this game has caused to me the same good impression than Bioshock Infinite at that time.

Lol no no not here. Though I am already seeing that
Atomic Heart Ditches Ray Tracing on PC at the Very Last Minute
Only a few hours before the game's launch, we received a clear answer: Atomic Heart won't have ray tracing for now. The exact quote is:
"Following the launch, we'll revisit the needs of our gamers"
wccftech.com
WTH does that even mean??...previously they confirmed that RT reflections, shadows and some RT global illumination would be included...now it's all undecided I'm guessing due to performance issues...the game looked like an RT powerhouse pre-release
