"Just put everything on Medium-High" Me 2019

[@The_Noticer.]

It can still look good on those settings, even better than on consoles. I don't understand why people have to put everything on ultra on midrange hardware or it's a bust. You can also look at it from the perspective that if you revisit it in a year, or maybe two. It still looks great because you can upscale the settings. However, i'm not excusing games that run poor whilst looking sub-par or like shit, even.

[@nickgarcia1292]

@@The_Noticer. it's mostly to prove to oneself that your hardware is holding up and doesn't need upgrading soon I believe as far as wanting to get ultra settings.. I've been playing this on 1440p with ultra/high settings and haven't noticed much slowdown with a 2600x and 1070 sc GPU with 16 GB ram. Pretty happy with how it runs especially compared to trying to play evil within 2 at the same time with tons of stuttering. But I'd be happy playing at medium/high but in the back of my head I'd be thinking about a new GPU soon lol

Great to see another Avalanche game using Vulkan! Mad Max, which was ported to GNU/Linux by the lovely folks at Feral Interactive was the first, and interestingly enough, it does suffer from similar stuttering. I really hope the developers get to grips with Vulkan, and that their next release doesn't suffer from these issues, as they are somewhat of a reoccurring thing with their implementation so far. Great video as usual, keep up the good work!

Instead of full ratio auto resolution scale system, I would love to see more devs do something similar to what Flying Wild Hog did with "Shadow Warrior 2," that is implementing MRS (multi resolution shading) around the screen borders/edges instead.

This ^ I wonder if it's just a difficult implementation, because it really feels like a great way to optimize performance.

[@Daddy137]

@@thatbants8510 it's pretty difficult to pull off actually. Devs are really tim pressured, so most don't have the man power to pull it off

[@Vynzent]

Can you give a short explanation of what that is? I haven't played SW2.

[@MarikHavair]

@@Vynzent It's like the variable resolution function found in certain other games where you can have the game adjust the render resolution to meet a specific framerate target, except it functions around the border of the screen leaving the center at native resolution, the idea being that your eyes will naturally focus towards that region when playing.

[@Vynzent]

I'd love to see a DF video explaining their optimal way to 'lock' the FPS on PC. As a newbie it seems like there are so many options:- in-game VSync (sometimes adaptive, half, or other!), control panel/driver VSync, 'in game' FPS limiters, RivaTuner / similar limiters. Then there's GSync/FreeSync on top. I'd love to know how they set up for the captures in terms of the above settings to test how well a game holds 60FPS (or whatever the target FPS being measured is) :D

[@hkoizumi3134]

If you are new to PC, I suggest taking guidance to driver support for graphical optimization. NVidia has one in their Nvidia experience. You can use that as the baseline and tweak it to your desire or leave it as is.

[@8bitcat564]

I have similar settings to achieve the 144 fps, but to be honest the game texture looks kind of bland but the lighting is excellent!!

[@isturbo1984]

"The console barrier" Kinda sounds like the developer barrier. If we can put console and PC games on the Switch, why are we pretending consoles are holding back PC builds? they could easily make a separate console build that doesn't hold back PC and is better optimized for the consoles themselves. Let's be real. It's the developers.

[@mbsfaridi]

istrurbo1984 It brings views.

[@ZinhoMegaman]

The truth? It's the money, putting more effort on whatever port/version always up the costs of developing a game and because they all cost the same price on sale, It is more likely they make only one build, then scale down for consoles. If they could up the PC version price I doubt they wouldn't push It more.

[@MrSEA-ok2ll]

With the Jaguar cpu in consoles being such a low clocked, and castrated chip compared to any Ryzen core, I am actually impressed that 60fps was possible on the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro. However, since both high end consoles are literally the same here regarding performance, one knows that developers invested time and optimization on the PS4 Pro and literally no extra time was invested on optimizing the Xbox Scorpio. Nevertheless, great video.

Why is Motion Blur mentioned 2x ? There is no "Shading Quality" option in my settings. And anisotropic filtering can only switched on, or off. There is no option to set "anisotropic terrain filtering" to "high"?

[@oropher1234]

i had stuttering issues with the first race which felt a little distracting. Also, if you throw like 5 grenades shoot barrels and your smart Rocket Launcher in quick succession you can quite easily dip below 60 fps as well, but that is to me because the effects look very advanced and i suspect them to scale linearly with the resolution. You (DIGITAL FOUNDRY) did not try this with the console version, pretty sure it will dip heavily. That too, because this game shows much heavier decreases in performance when turning up RES than most games!

[@Theinvalidmusic]

My experience with dynamic resolution was pretty different. I found it scaled down from native, but would take a few seconds to count frames before being able to achieve its target framerate. That's pretty standard. Not sure what black magic you achieved to get it to go backwards - possibly something funny re high refresh rates?

I think that Idtech 5 could really shine today, with 64 times more system memory than a ps3 and ssd's, it would be possible to make a game much larger and with fewer and quicker loading screens. Also, now we could take advantage of mega textures, at least doubling the pixel density on each axis. It could, potentially, be used for the best looking 1440p60 games on the X1X.

[@BlueSkyleaf]

You kinda misunderstood the dynamic resolution thing completly you should probably add the true explanation for it cause this is pretty unprofessional :P It works like a charm :) Also changing it to automatic and not using manual explains why you didn't get it at all it works just as intended on manual.... (hint: on manual the fps target will be what the game tries to maintain while lowering the resolution to down to x% set in the slider above, e.g. you can just lower it to 10% and it will always reach the fps target as long as it's not cpu bound. If you are not keen of too blurry images you can try stuff like 90% 60fps etc. but I would recommend choosing an fps that's reasonably handable and then just set it to 10% so you will never get stutters or slowdowns. (you can find out when the game starts to scal but just putting the slider to 10%, increasing it gradually and look at what % your current scene changes resolution)

[@m1ke1981]

will this game run maxed on a i7 8700 8 GB and an RX 580?

[@Jobsti]

What's about the V-Sync Settings? With my RX480, I have some Dips below 60, sometimes 45 and 30 fps (Cutscenes). Without Vsync, I have no dips below 58fps. With a 2nd monitor (mirror/clone), I have massive, but constant stuttering with the "Smooth Vsync". Only works, If I deactivate the 2nd monitor (never seen this problem on other games) Best Solution for me: FPS-Limit with Riva Tuner, Vsync off, Freesync on.
