7:46 For car models: The game uses RayTracing in Forzavista and only in Quality mode. Elsewhere in the game and in all modes the game uses excellent cube maps in the 3rd person view, and SSR whilst using the the hood cam. For the environment: SSR is used on bodies of water which works fine for the most part. Because the game has a fixed horizontal look you rarely see SSR breakup unless you are doing, let's say a jump where the vertical view of the reflection can disappear, or the SSR reflection is occluded by a tree. Overall raytracing would have been a waste of frametime in this game. The Devs definitely made the right decision to not include it during gameplay.

[@gtavshortclips4740]

They should include ray tracing in performance mode also only in the garage at 30 fps. I doubt you need 60fps in the garage but it is a plus

[@kaarthuisplus]

Tell that to pc owners.

[@brewski535]

@@kaarthuisplus I am a PC owner and I've played this game mainly on there. I'd much rather have higher framerates than RT in this game. It's so rare to see any instance of SSR breakup or times where I miss real time reflections in the car models. The only time I noticed the lack of the latter was when driving the Ford Bronco with it's super shiny flat rear windscreen. The only thing I will say is that if DLSS was supported then maybe I would turn RT.

[@michaelhuber6405]

From my experience, Quality mode is nice for still shots and just cruising around, but when racing nothing is even close to performance mode. The 60fps and crisp detail (way less blur) really takes the cake when driving fast.

You're gonna have to wait a few years for game developers to bring out the full potential of the Series X. It's still in the infancy stage of it's lifespan. Compare newer ONE titles with older ONE titles, it's a generational looking leap. Some titles on the ONE look just as comparable to on the Series X. Some titles are just the ONE X version ported to the XS.

FPS is everything. I showed my wife this video of and she was convinced that the graphics looked better in performance mode (on the Series S).

[@af4396]

This is why I play on PC... the issue the one guy pointed out. You have these devs deciding for you what's best, and they don't seem to think mixing quality and performance is best and that has always driven me insane. I don't need 4K... I need max graphical settings and 60fps. So what do I do on PC? Lower resolution to 1440p, put settings on high or ultra, and I get 60fps. You can do that with less than 12TF of compute power in this game too, which is infuriating for Series X owners.

When I first started playing the game I put in performance mode for the higher frame rate and I played like that for a while, then I thought let’s see the difference in quality mode.

[@homebase7347]

Yeah the devs need to focus on 60FPS minimum. These consoles are advertised and sold as 60 & 120, not 30 & 60. I'm seeing a lot of missed marks that, as unbelievable as it is to say, looks to me like blatant false advertising. When you sell a product as 1440P with a targeted frame rate minimum of 60, but only deliver 1080P at a maximum of 60, it's not a good look. All that said though I am satisfied with my Series S. Though I'd be really happy if they actually delivered good looking games at 1440P and 60/120.

"I want both" (in regards to Quality vs Performance), and then stating that is what this generation was supposed to provide, is not a fair argument IMO. Even if the system was 10x more powerful you could still improve the quality of the image to the point where it would necessitate lowering the FPS. That is, of course, until we have the computing power required to produce a perfect replica of reality in realtime with no compromise in FPS... which won't happen for a long time.

@Axel And once upon a time with EDP I own all of the consoles and to me the X1X is awesome even when compared to the new consoles. Series S has it in framerate but X1X has it with resolution.

[@zawiasfx]

why is interface blurred in performance, it shouldnt be affected by scaling...

[@RhinoXpress]

The biggest issues with the series s is its lackluster internal 500gb hard drive and its 10gb of ram. 10gb of ram is simply not going to be enough in the future without developers having to start scaling back on quality mode in their games and just making the games run in performance mode for the series s versions. Even the one x has more ram than the series s does. Now there are rumors that the series s will get an refresh which it will need I'm guessing a 1tb hard drive and at least 2gb of more ram, which it badly needs. As for ray tracing on the s the gpus teraflops is simply too low to support ray tracing on the series s. Its 4 teraflops on its RDNA 2 gpu is equal to that of the 6 teraflops on the one x Vega gpu.

[@alphabeta2589]

Do you even know why the games run not as good on the Xbox series s which makes you people think it's underpowered. This is because the devs of console unlike pc don't design games to utilize 100% of the hardware. As the gen progresses the games force the series s hardware to ramp up its system utilization as a results games *Will* run similarly even at the end of its life cycle. So regarding your ram concerns *even the Xbox 360 managed to run gta 5 with half a gigabye of ram* series s will crunch through it. Xbox 1x isn't even utilizing 100% of it's ram lmao. It's shitty cpu is holding it back

[@RhinoXpress]

@@alphabeta2589 do you? Gaming developers that actually design games for these consoles where saying how its 10gb wasnt going to be enough. That and its 4 teraflops of gpu for next gen games. So why don't you tell the developers that they dont know what they are talking about that.

@@alphabeta2589 the series s 4 teraflops is equal to the onx 6 teraflops. Its one of the key measurement of the gpu performance.
