    That fact that I can play this game in 1440p HDR 80fps (high) and 2160p HDR 30fps (custom high), with an i7-2600 and GTX 1060 6GB, speaks volumes to how great this RE engine is.

      Tbh this is not an open world game with lots and lots of things to render, it's tightly spaced corridors with way less polygons, it's not surprising that it's not too demanding to run.

      I don't understand all the love for the RE engine. Sure, it produces good framerates. But some of the textures and details are actually pretty ugly. One example? Fire. All the fire in this game look terrible. It looks as if they imported the fire effects right from the PS1 version.

      1) Dino Crisis was pretty popular back then and considering current Jurassic Park movies and games this would make totally sense.
      2) The won´t remake re4 because it is timeless from a gameplay perspective and still pretty up to date when it comes to graphics compared to the psx ones. It is also available on pretty much every system so there is no sense whatsoever to remake this and they won´t do it.

    Holy shit! Is the audio good in this game! I spent over an hour testing the different audio settings with my headset to find the best. I play on the Pro using the Platinum headset. To experience the amazing audio correctly I recommend these settings. Headphones, small dynamic range, binaural audio enabled, and turn OFF VSS/3D audio switch on the headset (VSS/3d only messes with the great binaural audio). Then find a staircase with a creaky chandelier, stand between the two floors and experience the amazing directional binaural audio first hand. Move the camera around and you can tell the exact location of sounds whether up/down, left/right, behind/below. I find that large dynamic range is a bit too sharp and tinny, and it also makes your footsteps much too loud in the headset.

    Hey, you can get rid of those greyish blacks by changing the color space in the display options menu from sRGB to REC. 709. The game looks absolutely stunning and dripping in atmosphere with only the light from the torch illuminating whats in front of you and your peripheral vision. Also like you mentioned the highest texture setting didn't negatively affect performance or cause stuttering. I tested on a 4gb 1050ti. The game is constantly swapping textures from from Vram to system memory as my VRAM usage remained constant but RAM usage shot up.

    Just use Reshade's LumaSharpen to compensate TAA blurriness, I use that for every game with TAA. In such a dark game with "broken" black level Deband option should also help greatly, reducing banding. Though I don't really get why games don't offer native sharpening slider if they offer TAA option, and especially if TAA is the only usable AA like in this case. TAA blurriness is an obvious issue that doesn't need a lot to compensate, don't know why it is never addressed.

      Try adjusting the brightness settings beyond what the game tells you is supposedly correct, it's clearly not. At least with HDR off you can get perfectly good contrast just by keeping the black and white sliders maxed and adjusting the last slider a bit darker. Maybe HDR adjustment is different though IDK, but the point is the in game calibration tips are straight up incorrect.

    Very nice analysis, Alex. I found that I can play the game completely maxed out at 1440P with 130% scaling on a 1080 Ti and maintain 60+ FPS almost throughout the whole game. The game did, at one point, use 10GB of Vram. Did you try putting the game at 4K and using 200% scaling just for fun? Maybe mess with the graphics settings a bit and lock it at 30 FPS if at all possible.

    Concerning the option to increase texture memory usage. It will make swapping assets harder and sometimes, when you travel from area to area the game will just freeze for like one second or even more so textures are loaded when you set the texture option too high. And resolution does increase but you won't notice past a threshold and the impact on framerate itself is very minor.
    But, yeah, there is a cache that tends to try to store more textures like he said.

      @BAMozzy69 5 років тому +1

      @@k20a2toofast4u The Pro is NOT matching the X at all on on frame rate - the odd dropped frame or two that is quickly resolved compared to 'Big' drops that take a lot longer to recover, occur a LOT more often is NOT parity. The 'best' console to play on for the smoothest performance is the X by a noticeable margin. It doesn't drop during most combat sequences - unlike the Pro.
      Visually, the Pro is not running the same Anti-aliasing and, as this breakdown shows, the X is running the 'recommended' anti-aliasing (FXAA+TAA) to eliminate the shimmer and flicker on edges. The Pro runs at a lower level of Anti-aliasing and so suffers from shimmer - as well as lower performance metrics. The Screen space reflections are worse too - not that they are great on any platform but certainly worse than the X.
      Not only is it having to make more compromise on the visual settings, its also not running as smoothly either. I own a PS4 Pro myself but I am not a idiotic fanboy who is pathetically trying to insinuate that a 'weaker' system is somehow performing better than a system that is superior in hardware - having a whole PS4 more processing power (PS4 + PS4 Pro = X GPU), over 65% more RAM and that RAM is 50% faster as well as having a faster CPU too. That is just fact!!! It doesn't matter that the X is 'better' - it cost more and is a year newer so you expect it to have more. Its like saying an RX480 is outperforming a GTX1080ti just because you own an RX480... Ridiculous!!! Grow up and just enjoy the games at whatever level you get to play them on. If its not 'good' enough performance and visual quality for you, buy an X or higher spec PC and keep your Pro for the 'exclusives' as that is providing the 'best' visuals and/or performance on exclusive games - every other game will look and/or play better on X and PC because they have the better hardware - FACT!!!

      @The ZGX no one made a properly optimized dx12 game yet. Emulators devs already said it has a lot of problems compared to vulkan, it's not consistent enough. Vulkan on the other hand already showed numerous impressive feats, top biggest being doom (2016) and the new wolfenstein. Also vulkan is multiplataform, dx 12 is w10 only. Devs are only implementing dx12 cause Microsoft pushes it behind the ropes together with ngredia that has bad async gain, but since the gain of amd is higher on vulkan compared to dx 12 they prefer to push dx12 so they don't lose money. As a consumer you all should push for the best performance for your money and that's Vulkan. (Also as I said it works by default on Linux using proton on steam and also on other hardware.)

      Gary Harrison NOPE. I leave all those on and the game looks so much better for it.

      Motiom blur off in most things. RE2 is one of those rare titles where it's done right and isn't overblown. I barely even notice it's there; exactly how it should be.
      To any devs out there...if you can see it it's too much.

    Q.E.D. One X has a wonderful GPU (Better than 1060 and 580).

    • @DeadmanNasser
      @DeadmanNasser 5 років тому +6

      gotta pay attention they clearly mentioned the 580 is closer to 60fps at 1620p NATIVELY without the reconstruction techniques used in the consoles which is 1620p (with reconstruction to reach the resolution) ..

      Not really.
      GTX 1060 and RX 580 are better GPU than the Xbox One X.

    • @ROBSILVERGUN
      @ROBSILVERGUN 5 років тому

      I'm not really sure if there is reconstruction as the image takes 0 frames to be shown properly on X. Every cut on Pro takes longer to be resolved fully.

      20:45, same setting of OneX (but without HDR), and both GPU drop below 60 fps. This is a fact.

    I'm playing this game on 1440p high settings on a 1080 ti and I get 100+ FPS most of the time. I had graphics settings that gave me a warning about memory usage, and even though the estimated memory use wasn't even above my VRAM, I encountered freezes while playing. Usually when I would throw a flash grenade or something, the entire game would freeze for 1-2 seconds. Adjusting the texture quality a bit lower so the warning went away made this problem disappear.
