Outside of some select areas, it looks like they've made some smart cut-backs, look at these comparison pics. You won't see any notable cut-backs unless going back and forth. The up-tick in performance will be worth it for a lot of folks.

The resolution is most important.

If it looks too soft ona big azz 4k display, it will be bad.

  • Drop in resolution from 1440p native (upscaled), to 1080p native (upscaled).
  • NPCs update at 20 fps to 30 fps to full 60 fps depending on distance on consoles in performance mode.
  • Drop in texture/material quality in performance mode
  • Reduced foliage quality/density and increased pop-in
  • Drop in ambient occlusion/shadow quality
  • Free roaming flock/animals in towns are completely removed

Holy SHIT at all those downgrades.

It creates an otherworldly effect, a disconnect between the player motion - the camera - running at 60, and then the swarm of rats updating at half that rate. Honestly for any scenes where rats dominate the screen space to such an extent, it begs the question: can the game always truly claim to be running at 60?

Folks relying on fake frame generation complaining that a game that was pushing visuals at 40 had to make cut backs to make it 120hz targeting game on consoles.

Poor Series S left in the dust. Kese guzre ge baaki 5 saal of the life cycle? 😭

Hopefully the enhanced consoles have some form of half assed frame gen tech from AMD to avoid these massive cutbacks. Not that FSR2 did jack to help the base consoles but well, one can hope 🤷‍♂️

Why'd Necrokiller leave out the juicy bits? Of course, coz this Necrokiller we're talking about 🤷‍♂️ :LOL:
  • 120hz offers unlocked performance mode
    • between ~70-100 fps typically on both
    • Rat animation refresh is set to 60 fps in 120hz
    • XSX has an advantage that can range from marginal, 3 fps differences, to nearly 20 fps in certain scenes (80 fps to near 100 fps).
70 to 100 fps with rat animations at 60 fps. Not bad :LOL: 🤜

120Hz perf mode still has all the fidelity downgrades, why leave that out? Because its CerebralTiger. Watch Dogs Legions vibes strong here. Imagine thinking the CPU problems "were solved" this gen. YIKES!!!!!!

You already mentioned those tho. I just pointed out the cool stuff you left out. Either way, I'm in no hurry to play this. Jab PS Plus Essential par ajaye gi tou try kar loon ga at 70-100 fps 🤷‍♂️ :LOL:
Imagine not being able to appreciate the wonderful and intricate texture work from the artists who worked on the game :(

Where dem game changing RT shadows tho? 🤷‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:

Why go for 40hz then? To 30fps pe khel lo phir saaen. "Its not a shooter" is a pretty lame argument. The norm for MP shooters has been well over 100fps for a while now.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
