HBAO+ becomes another Nvidia-exclusive feature

[banzaigtv]

Splinter Cell: Blacklist becomes the first game to use it. It makes shadows and reflections even more realistic.

Amd's 7k series can do the hbao just not the +, admitidly i dont know what the differance is. I'm sure its something stupid that amd can copy and call it hbao hyper or somthing.

I'm still impressed by the first Splinter Cell's graphics, that thing could run on my Gefroce 4 MX and I was always amazed by the shadows in that game. xD

Funny cause it renders super smooth on my NVIDIA GPU just fine. It was a little laggy at first, but turning off Post Processing fixed that.


Hmm so wonder what the visual differences will be between mid-range/high-end PC and the next consoles when comparing Splinter Cell: Blacklist visual quality. As both Xbox One and PS4 use AMD GPUs.
