Lacks identity, looks like UE5 techdemo shovelware.

643 fps to 43. What a freacking joke.

path tracing stops rain confirmed

 

[Pakoe]

1 on 1 RTX 'remixes' always look like hot stinky doodoo, this isnt any different

 

[March Climber]

As usual path tracing continues to impress me.

A generational-level of difference.

 

[Mownoc]

The comparison shots did nothing for me, but the actual gameplay footage in motion looks a bit more impressive.

Think there have been better examples of RTX Remix though.

Came here to say the same thing.
Glad you had it covered.

On a silicon the size of Texas and the price of a small apartment in Paris. RT needs more optimization, hopefully RDNA 5 and RTX 6000 have more tricks under their sleeves to lighten the burden.

ITT we find out CGI level lighting is expensive. Can't wait to see people make the same complaints about the PS6s framerate while running path traced games. It'll be a repeat of UE5 on PS5.

 

[CuteFaceJay]

-500 FPS and it's still heavy on dithering so this isn't even decent quality? Is this a joke?

Atmosphere gone , fire gone , Rain ? Gone !

Give it a rest will you, nobody is attacking PC here.

It's a steady pattern with all of these "rtx remix" things

 

[CuNi]

This gives heavy "Fuck, go back!" Vibes.

 

[StereoVsn]

Horrible performance considering the results. The RTX version looks kind of sterile and still there are issues with the image quality.

 

[Kikorin]

Losing 550fps for this is absolutely worth and if you say the contrary you are right.

 

[Fake]

Imagine losing that fps.

 

[yamaci17]

I usually like rtx remix but some results here are horrible
the reflection at 5:22 makes no sense at all. the water reflection can end up looking like both, but the muddy water there wouldn't end up with that much of a clean reflection
lighting improvements are welcome though. i'll give this a try on my 3070

Let's overreact over a fan made mod

There's some good RTX remix and some bad, its up to modders' efforts.

A generational-level of difference.

I mean, one would hope so for that cost and the game being 3 generations old.

 

[Thief1987]

I mean, one would hope so for that cost and the game being 3 generations old.

And with 10% of fps

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

And with 10% of fps

Yes, that's what "for that cost" means...

 

[Sethbacca]

Valve could do a remake of L4D 1 & 2 and I'd throw down cash on it in a heartbeat. I really wish those were available on console.

Back4Blood was okay, but it's not the same.

 

[Thief1987]

Yes, that's what "for that cost" means...

Well, yes I missed that part. Also I was generous, it's closer to 5% than to 10

The thing is, I'm right, it's that simple.

Fun aside.
The two statements don't have to contradict each other.
Of course, this RTX path tracing remix mishmash can be impressive on a technical level.
But it completely destroys the developer's vision they have realized through their choice of art design.

 

[Shifty1897]

Running at 10% of the original's framerate is wild. Looks good though.

 

[hinch7]

The lack of fog totally removes a lot of the atmosphere and the randomly placed lighting and edited textures completely ruin the mood and artistic intent in most scenes. The hospital looks pretty cool though,

As long as it's 40 fps for people that have 120hz screens, it'll be fine.

 

[Moses85]

How about releasing HL2 Remix ?
