I noticed image quality degrading over the years ever since algorithmic upscaling, frame generation and ray tracing became the norm. There is noticable dithering on alpha textures and transparent effects, the entire image seems blurry and shimmery and appears to be "moving" and warping like clouds do, even when there is no camera movement. Low resolution ray traced reflections suffer from dithering and flickering. Shadows and elements blocking parts of the screen show ghosting... I mean, it looks fucking horrible. There are so many unwanted side effects and artifacts, I'd rather go back to old school tech and rely on clever enginuity than brute forcing hyperrealistic calculations with low resolutions because the hardware is still not there. Even high end GPUs can't handle high native resolution ray tracing without relying on upscaling trickery that fucks up image quality. I mean we have all this fancy ray tracing tech nowadays but Uncharted 4 still looks way more impressive and believable AND has better image quality because it relied on artistry, enginuity and developers polishing their game rather than using lazy upscaling tech. I really hate where this is going right now.

It's ironic how they promoted 16:9 as a feature in the PC trailer, meanwhile the common 16:9 format in this game is broken on PC. On consoles switching from 21:9 to 16:9 doesn't zoom in, just removes the black bars.

[@Kryptonic83]

how is it broken? I think it's working how it should. 21:9 mode showing more content on the sides as if using an ultra wide display. I think the 21:9 mode is broken console, since it's not showing anymore content on the sides and it's also worse or same performance when it should be better performance since using less pixels. (but part of that might be due to the dynamic res that's being used on consoles, the 21:9 mode on consoles could be staying at the high end of the dynamic resolution.)

[@KrisDee1981]

Everything is ok on PC. On consoles 21:9 is badly implemented because you don't get a wider FOV compared to 16:9. It's like playing a zoomed 16:9 video to fill the screen on a 21:9 monitor.

[@jdmilion1096]

@@Kryptonic83it's not broken , these idiots don't knownwhat they're talking about .

[@RurouTube]

I see a lot of people confused about 21:9 mode. What they do is that they have different FOV for 21:9 and 16:9 and they prioritizing matching the vertical FOV, meaning that you get wider FOV on 21:9. As for rendering resolution, 21:9 will have less pixel at the same horizontal resolution vs 16:9, meaning 21:9 is rendering at 1920x820-ish. And yes, changing FOV is basically zooming-in, but I think some people think that 16:9 is just 21:9 being cropped and upscaled/resized to fit 16:9. No, it doesn't work like that. Having said that, IIRC, Digital Foundry have different result on console as in 21:9 mode is basically 16:9 with black bars on top and bottom and somehow using 21:9 actually have lesser performance on console. Either their game is not the release build or there is something wrong with the console version. Also as far as correctness, when I saw the 21:9 on DF video, the 21:9 is too tight, thus I feel that the PC version is probably the correct one. Basically 21:9 on console make the game harder to play.

[@AlexisUrena]

Weird that 21:9 is still using 1080p resolution. Must be downsampling or something.

[@Pawnband]

It's just using less of the 1080p pixels. Kinda like when I set my 16:9 4k oled to 3840x1600 mode.

[@luisguerreiro8045]

2560x1080 is still 1080p my friend, those numbers refer to vertical resolution, think 21:9 and 16:9, it's the 9 therefore even if 16 goes up to 21, the 9 remains, right? So the 1080 remains, therefore it is 1080p

[@elderman64]

​@@luisguerreiro8045 Yeah but this isn't adding extra screen on the side to achieve the widescreen. It's just reducing the vertical, which inturn physically reduces the amount of pixels from the "1080"

[@Pawnband]

@@luisguerreiro8045 That's not what the game is doing. It's taking your 1920x1080 real estate and only showing you 1920x822 of it. That's why performance is better, it's showing you less pixels.

it does draw those extra pixels, hence the fps drop when you go to fill screen.

0:50 The 21:9 mode on PC, unlike on consoles, seems like a true 21:9, which is to say it adds extra content on the side so you get a wider field of view. On the consoles, it just crops into the 16:9 image to get 21:9 frame. However, even on the PC, if you go 21:9, your vertical resolution remains the same but your horizontal resolution drops as a result of the narrower height, so a 1920x1080 image becomes 1920x822, which is why the frame rate goes up slightly.

[@retrosean199]

I spoke with a developer from the studio that works on this game engine. He explained that the "biased" upscaling setting is their attempt to tweak the scaling so that the visual output matches what you get at 4K. So for example, if you run 1440p Balanced upscaling with "biased" on, it tweaks the upscaling to look like the visual output of the 4K Balanced mode, so this will adjust the internal resolution upward and decrease the performance bump but presumably look better.

AMD has years of catch up when it comes to making a good looking scene with rays. I would not be surprised if we see a Nvidia do real time Light Transport before AMD has actual RT hardware.

[@jefmes]

@Daniel - if you're looking for some new content ideas, Outlaws patch 1.2 dropped a few days ago, and my impressions are much more positive now. Here's the comments I just dropped on the Ubisoft Discord if you're interested. "I've been playing the past two hours, and happy to report (to me) what is the best outcome possible with patch 1.2 - my PC has gone from a GPU limited bottle neck to clearly a CPU limited bottleneck Even with RTXDI now enabled on High and Ray Reconstruction enabled, and still using the Ultra general settings preset, I'm running at 3440x1440 w/ DLSS Quality between a solid 60-80 FPS on my RTX 4080. I usually try to target around 72FPS for a nice 2:1 ratio for my 144Hz ultrawide display, and let GSYNC do its thing. VRAM is holding steady between 70-80% full, and I've seen no instances of texture blurring/missing/etc. My GPU isn't hovering around 90-100% utilization any more, more like 60-80%, while the CPU is holding at 20-30% single core on my Ryzen 5900X...so I'd be willing to bet a future upgrade to a Ryzen 9800X3D will open up the GPU even further. Like I had hoped, it's a much more solid, more reliable experience on my machine - which is all we were hoping for on day 1 of release. I'm going to keep playing for a while tonight but otherwise I'll be letting my friends know patch 1.2 makes it a safe "buy" again if they were on the fence. Nice work dev team."

[@timtaifig6873]

RTXGI is a real performance killer. With my 4090 on ultra settings in 4K , RTXGI on high and DLSS on performance with FrameGen on, I get 80 -90fps riding the speeder, but I noticed heavy stutter when entering a building.

I would rather have better performance than individual blades of grass being animated

[@kon_radar]

Premium Laptops often have 16;10 screens. You have to convince people that you can see more vertically in games by just increasing the FOV. There are two FOV calculation methods. One is "Hor+" the other "Vert-". At "Vert-" the taller the aspect ratio the more you can see vertically at the same FOV number. Old RTS games used to use this FOV method. Many of the old games get Widescreen Fixes, where either the FOV is modified or the camera zoomed out.

[@RFC3514]

It seems that when you select "fill screen", the game is trying to maintain the same vertical FoV (instead of the same horizontal or diagonal FoV, which would be the normal thing to do). Is there a separate option to adjust the FoV? If so, does it have enough range to allow you to recover the original horizontal FoV from the "cinematic" mode?

[@Vladx35]

How can performance decrease when you see less things rendered on screen? Unless it’s rendering them off screen? Did you try restarting the game?

[@GotekSC]

Because a games' performance is not determined by how many "things" you render, but by how computationally intensive rendering the things that are rendered are. by having black bars, you need to rasterize color data for less pixels, or rather the computation for these pixels is very simple: fill with 0,0,0 rgb. in this case, this effect outweighs the benefit of lower fov on the full resolution option. The following is speculation on my part, but I also assume, since this game is always-raytracing, rendering less pixels also means less rays that need to be cast against the bvh structure, thus also heavily contributing to the performance profile David observes. Typically a game utilizing rt casts between 1-4 rays per pixel of internal resolution (before upscaling), with the computational intensity going up dramatically with each new ray.

[@KrisDee1981]

Bro the answer is very simple. The game renders at lower resolution. So many people do that on 4k screens to gain performance and have a more immersive 21:9 aspect ratio. You have to create a custom resolution 3840x1600 and you can run every game like that.

[@Thor847200]

The FOV dropping in 16:9 is going to be annoying as a 48" OLED person. I think of the 48" 16:9 as being sort of to a 34" UW what a 34" UW is to a 27" 16:9. I.e. it should always expand your FOV rather than zooming in. Seems like it might be a mistake, I don't see why it would do that.

If I understood correctly, the biased option always upscales the game to 4K using your selected scaler, and then downsamples to your output resolution. For example: Lets say, you are at output resolution 1440p, with DLSS performance with fixed option: - simply upscales from 720p to 1440p with biased option: - upscales from 720p to 4K, then downsamples 4K to 1440p if that's actually the way it works, it would be interesting to check how performance / image quality is when compared to native (1440p in this example)

[@fourty9933]

First minute of the video is ROFL...when you switch to 16:9 go into settings and change FOV from default to 90 or 100 then you will have your box and stairs back.

[@kon_radar]

Playing in 16×9 or 16×10 is a better experience on big screens. You just have to balance the FOV. You cannot get too high with the value otherwise everything gets too small.

[@AMDGBananaBen]

Thanks for the review Daniel! My poor 6600 is already crying, guess I should upgrade if I want a better experience or simply drop a bunch of settings.

[@chris20001965]

Lucky I have a 21:9 monitor!

[@masterlee1988]

Yep, same here as well.

[@yajnalgibno6536]

There's no option for FOV??? coz the game kinda zoom in if you chose "Fill screen"

[@deucedeucerims]

There’s an FOV slider

[@adriankoch964]

It's so weird that switching from 21:9 to 16:9 reduces horizontal FOV AND simultaneouly cut FPS. It should either reduce FPS+add vertical FOV or increase FPS and reduce horizontal FOV (and maintain the vertical FOV). Such an odd choice of handling aspect ration, but at least 21:9 mode is there. I wonder how they handle those extreme ultrawide monitors (like the Samsung G9 49" - a 32:9 screen that is basically two regular curved panels fused together into one wide boy), my guess it that it'll just letterbox at the sides and show 21:9 output.

[@jochenkraus7016]

I think the fps go down because the whole 16:9 screen shown the game. It should go down even further on 21:9 with the same number of lines (e.g. 2560x1440 to 3440x1440)

[@fafnirymd]

7:10 what are u sure you can't use frame gen? I see other youtuber who benchmark with rtx 2060 can turn on its frame generation with fsr 3

[@Z3t487]

He said you can use frame Gen with FSR 3...

[@fafnirymd]

@@Z3t487 6:27 he said "Can't"

[@Z3t487]

@@fafnirymd Captions say he said "can". Anyways, the point is: the game is not using FSR 3.1 so to use DLSS + Frame Gen you have to have an RTX 40 series card. If FSR doesn't look too bad compared to DLSS this ain't a huge deal: can always use FSR + Frame Gen.

[@EisteeMango]

Usually I don't notice bad graphics as much but especially at the beginning of the video take a look at the hair of the character he plays, is it really intended to look this bad or did the texture for it not load properly? Then when he is outside for the first time check the background when he is swaying his camera like from 5:10 onwards it looks like the background has screen tearing but not really screen tearing? IDK how to explain it better also generally every time he moved the camera with a further away background it looked like spongy and in general for the gpu intensiveness this games graphic fidelity is a joke. ALSO play the video in 0,25% you will notice rly hard what I mean with it tearing, it shows it off a lot stronger even though it's very noticeable even in normal speed especially around 5:05.

if raytracing is unable to be turned off, that means no 10 series cards?

You can disable it in the config file but it'll look terrible because guess what ? It was made with RT in mind.

RTX 3060 should not be considered mid range anymore. The 3060 was entry level at best even a few years ago.

[@marcinmaj848]

It's better than 4060 I don't see why it shouldn't. Just because graphics cards are reversed in performance?

x50 is considered entry-level, not x60, x60 is mid-range.

I did notice that only rx 7900xtx in latest 24h2 windows update it also gain 10 fps more in RT workload ...it means AMD gpu's have bigger issue in architecture designed that microsoft see that only AMD gpu does not have what NVIDIA have for doing gpu schedular by internal GSP processor unit ...its why NVIDIA does well in RT and Raster workload on weaker cpu's when nvidia does not need cpu's to process any RT workload instruction scheduler . Everything is done on GPU of nvidia what all AMD gpu's lack ...a internal GSP processor that handle all schedually events when instruction demands from game itself...now what microsoft did is transfer only RT work load to CPU cores ...since they figure out to fix what AMD couldn't on RX 7900xtx architecture lacks.
