By HonestVapes Go To PostCrysis was a poorly optimised game that on release, no PC could run properly. Even today you can not lock a 100% 60FPS playthrough because the game was made with dual core CPUs in mind.
That aside, you're not wrong. Nobody wants to make a game with a XX80Ti as the hardware target. There's no profit to be made from it.
Well that is bullshit, and that is exactly the "assumed" consumer mindset by devs, that is preventing a "new Crysis". Crysis was trying to be future-proof with VeryHigh settings that were far too high to run properly on current machines. People were going so far to unlocking the DX10 only VeryHigh preset (exclusive to DX10 meant exclusive to WinVista at the time) to run it on DX9 hardware.
But it was highly scalable with dozens of customization options to make it playable on mid/low-range rigs of the time.
The current mindset of "if the game doesn't run on my high end gaming rig with all bells and whistles then it must be poorly optimized" is a major issue, case and point RDR2. What's even worse is the fact, that the hunt for higher resolutions, even though much improved AA options minimized the need for 4K to get the "jaggy-free pristine look", gets completely overlooked.
The standard resolution in Crysis days was 1024x768. 1280x1024 was considered high-end, 1600x1200 unplayable luxury. 30FPS was the gold standard unless you were competing, which would lead to you reducing any details anyway.
The current standard is a completely different one now. StarCitizen is basically the only game close to being a Crysis successor because its mandatory need for a SSD. Other than that, graphically speaking, it's not that hot.
By Auto Simeone Go To PostControl with RTX is the new Crysislol no. not even close.
By Laboured Go To PostThey're using machine learning AI for it:I know I am just skeptical that the results will be great
By rodeoclown Go To PostTo add to this, the One X already had the ability to add HDR to select 360 games, like Halo 3 and Mirror's Edge, and the results were generally really good. This is a system level implementation of that.
Oh well thats good to hear
By syrenity now! Go To Postcould def see myself picking up the lcokart in a few years for the ps360 era bc.cunts
if sony didn't suck we'd get ps1-4 BC
currently playing with three consoles hooked up it fucking sucks
Whats dumb about the Sony BC is that there is no reason for PS1 classics not to be sold as damn near anything can run it or the PS2 classic list to be so small since clearly a lot of work went into the emulator on ps4.
By DerZuhälter Go To PostThe current mindset of "if the game doesn't run on my high end gaming rig with all bells and whistles then it must be poorly optimized" .
Isn't that the point of a PC in 2020 anyway? Pirate console games or wait for the ports to be dirt cheap and then turn on all bells and whistles, play the game with a framerate counter, spend your time trying .ini custom settings on and then dunk on console pleebs in videogame forums part time while playing Fortnite and League Legends in window mode.
By jjasper Go To PostWhats dumb about the Sony BC is that there is no reason for PS1 classics not to be sold as damn near anything can run it or the PS2 classic list to be so small since clearly a lot of work went into the emulator on ps4.It's pretty wild that they sold PS1 classics on the PS3 and PSP more than 10 years ago and haven't bothered to make sure they carry forward. I want to play my digital copy of Vagrant Story again, guys.
its like how nintendo still doesnt have gamecube or n64 games on the switch
the way these japanese developers treat their back catalog is disgusting

I’m addicted to making cheap pc configurations. Trying to build a 400$ Mini ITX to plug to the TV. Going for this gens version of 1080p at medium/high(not max) settings.
I really want it.

Solid month
is the single player of battlefront ii any good? i don't have ps+ right now, but i'd sub for a month if it has your lads' blessing.
don't care about the mp.
By bud Go To Postis the single player of battlefront ii any good? i don't have ps+ right now, but i'd sub for a month if it has your lads' blessing.DICE made it, what do you think?

its pretty as fuck but really by the numbers and short. haven't played it since release though. i wonder how much they've added
the graphics do look great, yeah.
i'm getting the feeling that you're leaning towards... "no."
By syrenity now! Go To PostDICE made it, what do you think?

By bud Go To Postis the single player of battlefront ii any good? i don't have ps+ right now, but i'd sub for a month if it has your lads' blessing.It's forgettable, but plays ok enough to be worth it if you are a Star Wars fan.

By bud Go To Posti'm getting the feeling that you're leaning towards… "no."i actually liked it :/ just not full price day 1 for the campaign like its tittyfall 2 or something
for dirt cheap right now, battlefront 2 is a solid pick up for anyone
By Kibner Go To PostIt's forgettable, but plays ok enough to be worth it if you are a Star Wars fan.honestly thought it was more fun than fallen order
i meant to quote sy there.
but it being short is actually a good thing! i'm saving spider-man for a long playthrough somewhere in the summer.

Just want to fly some X-Wings. X-Wing Alliance with a Xbox-Pad just doesn't cut it anymore. Who here still has a flightstick?
Probably would have helped for Elite.

Been leaning towards VKB Gladiator with their Kosmosima space combat grip.
forget a flight stick I want this
By Kibner Go To PostI didn't play Fallen Order because the combat looked like it had frustrating controls.whoever said RNG animations was on point lmao
Got to play on that at a PAX South a few years ago. Was a trip. Not as high quality as I expected, though.
The G29 steering wheel, six-speed shifter, and three-pedal setup is of much higher quality and has been treating me pretty well in driving games. I want to mod the stick to be a bit taller with some low-speed and high-speed toggle switches like a big rig. Maybe replace the topper with a Porsche-inspired one.
I would have loved to have gotten a non-gear-driven wheel, but couldn't justify the price increase, sadly. Would have cost me nearly twice the amount and gotten into territory I was very uncomfortable with.

Battlefront 2 was pretty much the only game I played last summer and I can say in authority, it's very mediocre.
By DY_nasty Go To PostIgn channel on twitchSeems to be really abilities focused - which makes think the gunplay will be kinda weak ala Anthem.
I hope there is a beta at least to see how it feels - because based off looks alone - its kinda bland.
By Dipro Go To Posti had the steel battalion thing lol. i wonder where it is.That is worth a lot, seen it sold for 500$+.
