Old Rig stop whining

[Hawk Firestorm]

Got a outdated rig and cant run it cos Ray Tracing is required. Because the Devs chose to target higher end platforms to show off the games engine, and make a better game.

Dont whine about it, fix the problem. Your rig is just way outdated to run modern games.

Thats the price of PC gaming.

If the games not working or optimized for even two year old computers then you can say goodbye to potential sales.

That is the devs fault in that case, not those with still decent computers for today.

Depends on your spec the bulk of sales wont be for pc but for xbox and ps5.

Ray Tracing is becoming more common and so is DLSS, this is the first game to require it, its a high end game meant for higher end rigs.

Dont blame the devs for making a modern game,

I have a 4090, I still think it's bs forcing Ray Tracing. I don't even use it in other games except Cyberpunk and that's only because I still get over 144fps.

I barely notice the difference using Ray Tracing, Path Tracing is where I notice the most difference but still not enough to warrant loosing 60% of your FPS.

I'm sorry but what 2 year old GPU does not support ray tracing? Or did you buy a computer 2 years ago with a 10 year old GPU?

Then maybe they should have said it sooner than literally 2 days ago that it requires RTX. You could buy this a year ago, and they never once mentioned it requires RTX until two days ago.

I agree they could have said it sooner. I also noticed that you didn't answer my question. Maybe you realized your argument wasn't very good so you pivoted to something else. Who knows?

Huh? I did answer your question. My argument is as it stands. They announced it WAY too damn late. I can run Doom Eternal maxed out at 144 fps on a 1660. Same engine and same devs by the way.

No, you didn't answer my question about which 2 year old GPU does not support RT. Also, if you think two games running on the same engine will always perform the same you really don't know much about how games work. And just to be clear, it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with optimization.

Just wait until Feb 2025 and the new RTX 5000 series will be out.

even my old 2080 had raytracing... I don't get the problem at all. why do people think, that games must support Playstation 2 quality computers until 2060? Come on!

NVIDIA still releases GPUs with 8gb VRAM which is absolutely insufficient for this game in later areas.

[Dustreaper]

The game has so badly been optimized the spec sheets are of the charts the game doesn't look bad but it looks like a good looking game from 2017 at most..

It's because they forced raytracing, you need an RT enabled card and also higher than 8gb VRAM, that's just crazy.

I've seen better looking games few years ago, without forcing the need for RT.

They can eat s***.

Yea they did't want to optimize it as much so the dlss and framegen is there to get the frames up.
