Forced ray tracing wut?!

[Mr.Makaveli]

Everyone knows the id Tech engine is one of the most optimized out there, but this ray tracing technology feels unnecessary and overhyped and MEME!! It’s only going to prevent people with older hardware from being able to enjoy the game...

I remember having to upgrade my maybe 3 year old Geforce 3 Ti200 to play Doom 3 in 2004 because it could barely run it. Now people freak about having to upgrade after 6+ years. Things have never been better with how long hardware lasts then in recent years. Some of you really should be console gamers.

dam dude. i feel sorry for you. actually no i dont.

dont be a hater. and wow..creepy you check my profile. wierdo.. anyways il be sorted when this game comes out and i cant wait..bye.

lol... you really don't read anything posted hu? why would i be jealous? because you spend 3000€ for a damn gpu (that still nobody besides professionals will need atm) while i can play anything on ultra already? yeah... sure. whatever you believe... i explained enough. you buy 1 gpu, i can build a whole pc for that that runs all on ultra in 4k that is out atm, but whatever dude.

i wonder what cpu you have for that. this might be getting even funnier.

creepy to check profiles? are you ok? new to steam? a profile can tell a bit about a person. private profiles in general talk a lot of crap.

1st, you don't tell me what to do.
2nd, i blocked you already but still get notifications of your stupid replies that literally have nothing to say.

i wish the block button wouldn't show those users at all anymore.

They force RT because there were probably 5-10 lighting artists and they were able to fire all of them.

I don't think there's anything to lose by making Raytracing optional. It's not like Id-tech was built from the ground up with Raytracing.

With card prices and the chips market being what they are, it would be smartest to make Raytracing optional in your game.

But innovation and pushing technology are very important in game development, too.

Heck, I don't know. Just happy I have a 3070ti that should last me another 1-2 years.

Shhhh. OP, think of the poor Nvidia employees ! They need more money in these had times !

At that time graphic cards were much cheaper. And better graphics actually had effects on gameplay at that time.(Like having more destructive environments or having euphoria ragdoll physics that weren't possible on weaker hardware. Or having more enemies on screen.)

Now better graphics just means "The game plays the same, but oh look. Now puddles on the ground have proper reflections !"
