curious to see how this ends up being. it looks like they tried to ramp up the whimsical in a game that's mostly somber, which seems weird and disjointed. and good luck beating DRG in the whimsical dept
i hope it does well. huge control fan
I would not describe Control as mostly somber.
Things about it that are somber / serious:
Things about it that are whimsical:
Things about it that are both:
I have complete faith in Remedy, both of the Alan Wakes and Control have been surprisingly funny and whimsical, often in unexpected ways. Quantum Break had less humour and was a bit more self serious, but Microsoft also had more control of that project.
so how is it? i would say i hope it gets better, but "mixed" reviews at launch doesn't bode well for a game that depends entirely on lots of people playing
That's nice to hear. Alan Wake 2 was a great game and gorgeous, but even after upgrading my gpu, it was a pain trying to get it to run even sort of smoothly. A bit over ambitous, methinks.
Control, otoh, ran great when it came out and still runs great, all while looking great as well. Going back to whatever strategy worked their seems like a good idea.
Yeah, that’s not bad! Now, that is with quality upscaling, so not at native 1080p. And on low settings, which we’re yet to see how that looks.
But yeah, compared to most of the industry (even themselves with AW2), this is a pleasant surprise! It makes me more open to trying it, since I find shooters on kbm to benefit greatly from higher framerates.
Anyways, I’m not expecting call of duty or cs2 framerates. Lower quality options in those games tend to look pretty presentable, and framerates can get past 120 fps depending on the rig and settings. This game isn’t PvP, though, and I think this middle ground between performance and quality is a great fit for PvE. Helldivers II is where my mind goes (except this game will have half-competent upscaling).
Apparently the steam deck graphics capabilities are about equivalent to a GTX 1050 TI, so curious if this will run on deck OK or not.
Considering the Steam Deck's screen is 1280x800, I think it might be ok.
Bit late, but in theory, it should work just fine, even at 60 fps, given that the Steam Deck's display resolution is only about half of 1080p.
me, with a 1660 Super
Somewhere above 720p upscaled to 1080p with the help of FSR should work for 60 fps. The lower render resolution is likely enough to compensate for the lack of VRAM. This is all theoretical, of course.
How's your CPU situation?
Ryzen 5 3600. Not the 3600X but the 3600.
That's supposed to be very friendly? I think someone might be a bit out of touch.
*Relative to what we're seeing out of the Triple Ehh space.
To run 1080p60 you need a 9-year-old GPU paired with a 8-year-old CPU.
What performance were you hoping to get out of that hardware?
(And by the way, the other GPU they mention is only 5 years old.)
With all these things considered, I don't view the quoted performance as anything special. It's not particularly bad, but not particularly good either. Certainly not "very friendly", or newsworthy.
has a 1060
Then you get 1070p
Can't argue with that!
Same. I have a 1080ti my pal gave me.....but it's overclocked to all fuck, and I can't afford to build a custom water-cooling loop to upgrade from the 1060.....we'll....I COULD afford it, but there's other stuff that's more importanter
Can't you underclock it using MSI afterburner, so it'll run cooler?
I have a 2070 non-super just sitting around, PM me and perhaps I can sell it to you.
