Looks like Crysis has reincarnated.
Also, suggesting Windows 10 is funny as hell, the Microsoft trend of shitty alternate OS releases continues.
Hopefully Windows 12 doesn’t suck.
Yeah. An Ryzen 7 7800X for 1080p high settings without RT. WTF.
Both Win 10 & 11 have been great from a user standpoint. The only complaints I’ve had (or heard about from friends) have been about forced updates that couldn’t be disabled when Win10 went to R2.
Hopefully valve drives enough of the population and developers to use and support Linux. Then windows shitty OS can go away for gamers. It’s such a terrible OS now.
Agreed, I don’t know why I said I hope W12 doesn’t suck, I use EndeavourOS now, with Windows to play games with anti-cheat. I’m sure soon devs will come up with some anti-cheat for Linux, but I think something like that requires Wayland at a minimum, X11 has too many vulnerabilities, but is still used by most distros as default.
I don’t like it as I can run the base game in 1080p on ultra with my 3060. I don’t think that this (what essentially amounts to a DLC in my opinion) is worth a requirements boost, especially when this is the only planned expansion. From a development perspective, it makes no sense unless it is to cover up sloppy optimisation.
Unfortunately I think cdpr has a history of poor optimization. I remember having witcher 3 with graphics patches and maxed out and it ran like no problem. This was with mods. Then they released the next gen update, which imo looked about the exact same compared to my modded version, and it ran at 1/8th the FPS. Shortly thereafter they released a performance patch and it was better but still never the same.
I never played Witcher 3 (its on the backlog ok 😅). I typed in “witcher 3 performance” into whoogle and just… yikes. What are they doing?
should’'ve done that in the begining, making it a true next gen exclusive, instead of letting the hardware requirements get dragged down by last gen. But corpo is gonna corpo.
I wonder why 1440p is not included in here. Most people I know that are not using 1080p are using 1440p and not 4k.
cries in GTX 1050
I’m going from being able to run the game (1080p) at full path tracing to minnimum settings if the requirements are to be belived. Mostly due to my CPU. So I’m looking forward to the update but frankly CDPR optimizes like a dumpster fire compared to titles of similar scope.
Am I stupid or are the AMD requirements kinda off? 3080 on NVidia side but 7900 xtx on AMD side? Also a Ryzen 7 7800x for 1080p@60 with High settings?
I got a Ryzen 7 5800x3d and a 6950xt and I have no clue what kind of performance I can expect.
I played whole og game 3880x1440 over 60fps with 3800x and 2070 super. I used the shit out of dtls or whatever it is though. No ray tracing. Otherwise I think my settings were mostly ultra. I definitely spent time tweaking and playing with the options.
I think they need to release a system-checker app asap. I have no idea if my system meets the requirements.
e2a: Intel® Core™ i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz… NVidia Geforce GTX 980… I guess I’m SOL?
Should be about minimum maybe a bit below it
what does this mean for the steamdeck? still playable?
Lower screen resolution might be good enough. I hope you like 15fps in the city!
I feel very worried for my 5700xt. I hope I can still play it with my current or better in-game settings. I use Photo mode more than play side quests.
I kinda find it odd that they up the CPU requirement a bit for rt… Why? I thought the RT happens entirely on the GPU.
Playing current version at 1440p, RT=psycho at pretty stable 60fps with a rtx3090 and a ryzen 9 3900x. Not too keen on upgrading anytime soon if I can avoid it. Fairly confident I can find playable settings with decent eyecandy with PL, but probably need to drop a notch from current settings (if they are even directly comparable).
