Re: General Games Discussion
It would be nice to see better water effects tbh, a lot of games do it really, really badly.

Current graphics in simple terms are calculated relative to the 2D plane on your monitor, a technique we've been using since Doom, Ray Tracing actually models the lighting reflections and bounces in 3D so we don't need fake depth techniques like Ambient Occlusion, Parallax and depth mapping etc, everything is based on the actual 3D model and the "material" instead of extrapolated with some really fancy maths that Carmac pioneered

Re: General Games Discussion
I don't know if I'll watch it, but I'm sure there will still be some reveals and updates at E3 that I'll want to know about, regardless of Sony being there or not. I probably won't be bothered to keep myself up all night, in order to watch it live, but I'll definitely read about it.Bellabong wrote:https://kotaku.com/sony-pulls-out-of-e3-2019-1830474052

Cyberpunk will be there so yes lol, but obviously it will be more muted than usual.

Re: General Games Discussion
Ray-tracing is unplayable in this gen, Dice even said they had to tune it down to run even this fast. Maybe next gen will make it playable on 1440p, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

There isn't gonna be a game optimized for it unless specifically developed with that intention intention, give it a year or three and we might see games utilize it

There isn't going to be games specifically developed it before hardware can handle it, and enough people actually have bought that hardware. Now it would be just waste of resources, and we all know how corporations handle "gaming" resources. Just watch F76.

Re: General Games Discussion
With RTX off, how good are RTX cards compared to GTX equivalents? Say 1080 ti vs 2080 ti.

I'll still watch it, Microsoft are always comfortable time wise anyway for Europe.
I'll probably watch Nintendo for same reasons and the hope we see some Metroid Prime.
Also at the end of the day it's still important for 3rd parties and i usually find it entertaining. Sony is usually when i get most hyped but it's an hour long period over something which i watch off and on for like 4 or 5 days.

They aren't doing it because they said they don't have enough to show.
Only thing we have this year is the Game Awards.

From Techspot, 2080ti is average 21% faster on 1440p than 1080ti, 31% on 4k, at 66% price premium (cheapest models).danyjr wrote:With RTX off, how good are RTX cards compared to GTX equivalents? Say 1080 ti vs 2080 ti.

Re: General Games Discussion
Yeah prices are ridiculous but they're not really bad cards. I think they got the bad rep because they used ray tracing as a selling point and we'll, it sucks that it doesn't actually work
At the end of the day PC gaming is dictated by consoles unfortunately and hence from a graphical standpoint they'll never utilise the best PCs out there apart from giving more FPS.
Guess we'll have to wait for the next generation of consoles to see RTX in full power? Even then consoles use AMD GPUs so I'm not sure ray tracing will be big then

Re: General Games Discussion
2080 is much better value than 2080ti, but being as fast as 1080ti even it is 10% more expensive. Nothing like when last gen came with double the power at same price. But that's monopoly for you, AMD needs to advance there like they have now with CPU's. Or maybe Intel is ready to tackle high end GPU's as they are also entering the space.
Consoles have always hindered technology and games, nobody benefits from them other than corporations and stock holders.
Was just looking that I paid 499€ for my 1070 almost two and half years ago, and it's still 439€ at new.

Re: General Games Discussion
Haven't felt the need to replace my 980 Ti and I play at 2560x1080@75. Going anything beyond a 1070 and you're looking at spending at least $500 on a monitor (1080@240, 1440@140, 4k@60) because otherwise you're just wasting performance.
The cards have a bad rep because the meme finally fulfilled.

Seems some faulty memory came through Q&A because every RMA'd card was returned with Samsung memory instead of Micron memory.
Don't get too hyped up about ray-tracing though for next gen consoles though, that'd be like getting hyped for DX10/11 for the X360 and PS3. The tech just isn't cheap enough for consoles.

Fortnite
How could they give the award to Fortnite when other nominees were God of War, Spiderman and RDR.

Golden Joysticks is a community voted award, not really surprised the most popular game on the planet would win.

Re: General Games Discussion
Managed to finish Divinity Original Sin 2 after a long hiatus, fucking amazing game, its like ME+Fire Emblem, the stroy is fantastic, characters well written, voice acting A+, and the combat made me fall in love with RPGs again. Everyone should play it, you don't need to play Divinity 1. This is my first playththrough

Gonna go ahead and get POE, the RPG fix in me is strong
