Even if so, most web browsers wouldn't support viewing them with that color range. The bottom one is without HDR. I would imagine the top one is. People should try it for themselves though. It’s an entirely different game visually with HDR off. It looks leaps and bounds better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom631 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Another tip for anyone playing with a controller whose accidentally skipped cutscenes bc they tried to crouch or un-crouch (who thought mapping the skip dialogue and crouch to the same button was a good idea?). Go into gameplay and at the bottom there is a setting to change skip cut scene by line or continuous. Change to continuous. This forces you to hold the button down to skip.

best3444 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I have no idea if I want to continue with this game now or wait until the next gen patches come out. Fuck me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely doing that because I noticed how flat that scene looked too when I was playing. Still, it didn't make me " sad"... wtf? Oh and im playing in quality mode.

legend Posted December 11, 2020 Author Share Posted December 11, 2020 I finally got my PC configured correctly for my LG C9 running 4K at 120hz with Gsync and it's been awesome. In nightime 4K using ultra performance DLSS I'm getting 70-85fps in night time of Night City. We'll see how it does in some of the more demanding areas, but it feels really fucking good at that frame rate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDunks4 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 That PC shot is being a bit generous too I think? I played on PC, and looking at my footage, it seems it didn't appear nearly as nice as that image portrays it. Maybe time of day affected the lighting as mine was much brighter.

BloodyHell Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I so feel bad for those playing this on last fen consoles especially, because the game is incredible. It has some dumb shit, like the dildos, but eddies are eddies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodyHell Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Man, Blessing from Kinda Funny complained money was hard to get in this game, which seems absurd to me now. I paid the cyberdoc, and still have 18k, and I just finished the prologue last night (just fired up the game and went to one of those sell stations).

skillzdadirecta Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 So... are we gonna actually discuss the game in this thread or should I start a separate one that just discusses gameplay and leave the tech talk here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno man, I feel like that’s what it looked like on ps4. I’ve been trying to brighten my screen. There seems to be darkness almost always on the edges of my screen. Just washed out darkness. In the tutorial area I could barely see the walls when in corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentbob Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 For some reason HDR isn’t an option when playing my PC copy. I have it running from my PC directly into my 4K Sony tv but I am unable to toggle hdr on or off. I will probably try running it directly to my JVC 4K projector and see if that option opens up then. Some odd commands don’t react right away with my hour or so gameplay last night. I can look right at the object hit the X button on my Xbox controller and doesn’t do anything. Flick my head around and back to the object and then my X button command works. Weird, but at times a little frustrating. Game looks nice and lively Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardAct Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 20 hours ago, stepee said: Similar boat - 3080 and a 4790k 32gb ddr3 ram, we are bottlenecked by cpu and and ram speed unfortunately. Only thing that helps somewhat is overclocking the ram speed since it’s so much slower than ddr4. For me it’s as soon as I turn any ray tracing on at all in the game I hit a bottleneck and can’t get to 60fps no matter what I adjust. If you find anything that helps with that pls @ me! Thinking that your PC is a good rep to the experience that I probably would have I think? I do not have the 3080 {I FRIKK'IN WISH} but I have a 9700k and 32 gig ddr4 3200 and of course only a 2080Ti ? Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dark one is the good one not for being moody and hiding flaws but it clearly has better lighting and you can see even in that screenshot much better textures, just look at the wrinkles on that guy's forehead that might as well not exist in the second picture.

YES... "Hiding flaws in the character model." Dude I'm just expressing my simplified opinion without fucking the frame... can we agree that it looks better than the other one at a glance? I didn't whip out a magnifying glass and examine the picture. He seemed confused as to which one looked better period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing that affects me more than even the cpu speed is the ram speed. Mine is dd3 so it’s 1800mhz, I have to overclock to 2000 to get better results, your ram is way faster by default and the cpu is much newer and more efficient. You will probably just have a more normal bottleneck from the gpu side with the 2080ti. You should be able to just more easily lower res/settings as needed to play it at 60.

Bloodporne Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I bought a new Predator laptop earlier in the year and I have no idea how you guys know all this shit about your computers, I'm totally illiterate apparently as far as computers go. Is there usually a comprehensive screen in Windows where I can pull all these esoteric numbers, model numbers and what not from to determine if some game can even vaguely run on my system? Sorry I know it's a dumb question but I'm totally new to PC gaming and so far the newest title I had played was Prey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I know it's a dumb question but I'm totally new to PC gaming and so far the newest title I had played was Prey. I have been building PCs since I was like 13. Alot of us play on desktops that we have personally built so we know the parts by heart. In your case you can search for device manager in the search bar. It should open a window where you can check what parts you have. Generally you need to know what processor, how much RAM, and what graphics card you have. With that we can help you determine what kind of performance you'd get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can push the start key and type dxdiag and it will tell you all your computer specs or you could do the same and type system and it will show you system information.
