The zone will be 64 square kilometers, that's almost 16 times the detail of the previous installments

[untold salmon]

xbox has it marked as 4pm utc

[granite mortar]

Watch me endure the game on 15fps with 4GB vram

I will do it

[round axle]

So 11 est

[wispy topaz]

Did Gow Ragnarok say the same thing 6 GB VRAM, but they fixed this login error and everyone saw that the game can still run with 4 GB VRAM.

[granite mortar]

Ive played Dreamcatcher on i5 650 and RX550
Sure this cant be that bad

[untold salmon]

touch wood

[granite mortar]

🤨

[untold salmon]

perfectly valid saying

[somber cairn]

what do u mean with frame gen is in?

[untold salmon]

stalker 2 has frame gen

[jaunty pebble]

Yes, Frame Gen is in alongside DLSS 3.7 and FSR 3.2

[granite mortar]

🫷

Whats the next step? @untold salmon

[somber cairn]

oh okay sorry thx

[untold salmon]

pray

[thick lichen]

jello

[jade coral]

Download more vram

[dim topaz]

Supposedly frame gen is pretty bad unless you already have a stable 60, but we'll see tho. Ive onl tried ghost of tsushima and it was fine there, but maybe fps games are different

[sweet belfry]

someone get the CEO of GSC a new barber no CAP

[untold salmon]

nah i used framegen for space marine 2 and it worked great

[granite mortar]

Oh Jekan
May your mods be stable and your riches many

[pearl ore]

THE HAIR BE BUSSIN

[ancient haven]

Tbh the bigger issue is how CPU limited the game is

[dim topaz]

Sm2 is not an fps either

[ancient haven]

There is basically no difference between a 4090 and a 4080

[untold salmon]

okay fair point

[thin shuttle]

do you guys think it will be a big bottleneck with a 4080 super and a 9900kf oc at 5ghz?

[thick lichen]

what if the GSC CEO got a low taper fade 🥶

[ancient haven]

It was already bottle necked with an i9 14900k

You'll get a worse experience thats for sure

[dim topaz]

GSC ceo needs the modern black guy in video games haircut with the dreads swept to the side and the fade

[sweet belfry]

there is like a 1000 dollar difference and 8gb of vram. 4090 is much better for 4k gaming

[thick lichen]

he needa low taper faaaadeee 🥶

[ancient haven]

I meant in stalker 2 performance

[thin shuttle]

at 1440p i wonder if the bottleneck will be a thing

[ancient haven]

There is a bottleneck even on 4k

[sweet belfry]

4090 should run stalker 2 at 4k much better then a 4080 would

[thin shuttle]

yeah but not noticeaeble

[open steppe]

Me when I loop cheeki breeki 24/7

[ancient haven]

Lemme dm you the pic cant post it here

[waxen cobalt]

Anyone know of any sites with available stock for the STALKER themed Keyboard? ;-;
That can also ship internationally

[thick lichen]

what if strelok got a low taper fade

[ancient haven]

Not noticeable...?
Huh lmfao
I wish i could post the screenshot here

[mystic anchor]

“Marked One?! What the heelll is that haircut?!”

[granite mortar]

Maybe he did
Play the games and find out

[thin shuttle]

at higher resolution less cpu dependance for performance and more gpu

[wispy topaz]

After the release of many games requiring a minimum of 6GB, everyone saw that they can be played easily on cards with 4GB VRAM. DLSS and FSR save the player.

[green delta]

how do i get the battery from the yantar shash?

i want to see the Alife system and how deep would be

[green delta]

in soc

[main delta]

Brothers, do you think Performance on geforce Now is enough for good experience, or should I get Ultimate one?

[thin shuttle]

i would go for ultimate for this month since is the stalker month

[main delta]

Im gonna play on 1080p monitor, so I was wondering if there is a need for Ultimate then? Forgot to mention that

[thin shuttle]

oh in that case, probably not, i don't know much about gforce experience and their priority queues or how fast is their service i guess to play at 1080p you can keep that way

[valid thicket]

Hopefully the NPCs don't have the ability to snipe you with a grenade on launch

Congrats Chymo

[languid obsidian]

is stalker anomaly custom worth trying out?

Im considering playing it if stalker 2 turned out to be unoptimized or smt

[celest blaze]

Play better mods lol

[granite mortar]

So true bestie

[celest blaze]

Anomaly custom is full of Russian Z nationalists who hate anyone who doesn't choke on putins meat

[thin shuttle]

if you look for optimization i don't think anomaly custom would be the way due to the stuttering problems

[languid obsidian]

idk the graphics look quite nice and tempting

[granite mortar]

Anomaly Custom only did one good thing and thats the fact they ditched Monoshit engine in favour of chad IX-Ray

[celest blaze]

Only zoomers care about graphics ngl

[granite mortar]

As Zoomer this insults me

[vivid sphinx]

I forget, did they say mod support would launch with the game or shortly after?

[celest blaze]

Sorry

[languid obsidian]

so whats the best modded stalker then?

[celest blaze]

Freeplay or story mods ?

[granite mortar]

Its what I say it is

[thin shuttle]

call of the zone iwp

[languid obsidian]

im up to anything honestly, as long as its interesting

[celest blaze]

Call of the zone, goldsphere and many more

[rose moth]

I am also offended

[celest blaze]

Cotz > iwp version

[granite mortar]

So true bestie

[granite mortar]

I dont see what people like about IWP
the engine is nice but thats about it

[rose moth]

Bro I love how en off top has gradually turned into a kotposting channel

[celest blaze]

[verbal slate]

You're a renegade your opinion is worth less. Actually.

@languid obsidian for freeplay definitely play Call of thr Zone, prefferably with Rhony quest addon
For story mods I have a spreadsheet in my bio

[thin shuttle]

i hope stalker 2 has some underground terrorific caves or hides

[rose moth]

Why are people voting no WTH

[rose moth]

I will skin them all

[granite mortar]

They kinda right tho
Kots belong in every chat

[rose moth]

I want the full slav experience

[thin shuttle]

i was thinking about this, but between don't understand a shit and get some inmersive experience or understand something i choose the first, but i feel like the english labial sync are pretty good, at least on trailers like scar or strider

[celest blaze]

English

[untold salmon]

cant wait for the bandit to scream "MEOW MEOW MIAU MOW!"

[fringe wasp]

Does changing calibre of a gun reduce its damage in exchange for essentially just allowing you to use cheaper, more common ammo? I don't know whether to switch my l85 to 5.45 from 5.56 (call of pripyat)

[untold salmon]

uh, probably not

[thin shuttle]

no it will suport instantgaming boss to keep roleplaying coke and bitch's trip on big ships

[celest blaze]

I'd donate directly

[granite mortar]

Doesnt 5.45 do more damage in stalker?

[queen dew]

[fringe wasp]

I'm new I have no idea lol

[granite mortar]

Omg

[slow moth]

I think it does but it mainly depends on the weapon

[thin shuttle]

the obssesion about cats on this discord starts to worrying me

[slow moth]

I know in SoC it's better than 5.56

[queen dew]

Cats in the zone Confirmed?

[fringe wasp]

any idea about the l85? call of pripyat specifically

[celest blaze]

[slow moth]

in every way

[granite mortar]

Weapons dont affect damage much
They mostly differ in accuracy and other stats

[thin shuttle]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/807809192537882647/1284284966305534044/bruhFlipExplode.gif

It's pretty good with damage just not with reliability

[granite mortar]

Shun the nonbeliever
Shuuuuunnn
Shh SHUUUUUUNN

[slow moth]

it used to be my go-to in CoP

[untold salmon]

explode

[thin shuttle]

I'm more on the dogs side

[fringe wasp]

Oh, I have a bizon for general use I'm not worried about reliability, l85 is just to swap to for big targets, I guess what I'm asking is, if money isn't an object, do I keep the calibre at the more expensive 5.56 or swap to 5.45? Not sure which is stronger

[slow moth]

I'd switch it honestly just so you have a more reliable ammo that's easier to find

[thin shuttle]

I wonder if factions would have diferent ai on combat, something like mercs or soldiers beign more tactics than fking bandits

[slow moth]

It'd be nice to see mercs and duty performing better skirmishes and covering fire for each other

[lean sigil]

Bandits have tactics? I thought they just cross map you with a rusty double barrel

[granite mortar]

Bandits are the best organized faction

[pseudo rivet]

"organized"

[thin shuttle]

They only have bread and cigarretes, and sometimes vodka

[pseudo rivet]

[untold salmon]

Stalker AI has always just all kinda been good

[slow moth]

Their tactics and decisions are based on RNG 👌 chefs kiss

[verbal violet]

iN CoP i keep dying to an emission theres a yellow quest marker but it has no cover there 😦

[slow moth]

Better than combine in hl2 imo

[solid verge]

I am still hoping for a photo mode in Stalker 2 for a photomode for virtual photography

[still ridge]

Do you have an item called “anabiotics” in your inventory

[slow moth]

what location is it? it might mean u need to be underground

[pseudo rivet]

It's a white marker

[verbal violet]

no 😦

[worthy wren]

Damn, no driving / vehicles, no multigaming...

[verbal violet]

I by the helicoptor you need to investigate basically at the start

[slow moth]

Imagine a panoramic screenshot

[pseudo rivet]

Yeah, follow the white marker

[still ridge]

Yeah so the marker you need to follow is the flashing white one

[slow moth]

There's multiple, you mean the swamp or iron forest?

[pseudo rivet]

Basically at the start is probably at the swamp

[solid verge]

Yes..

[verbal violet]

it looks like a swamp llmao

you mean the giant white circles? I have to go there

[hybrid dust]

I have a question and i dont seem to find the answer for it.
I pre ordered the physical version of the game, will i get the package on the day the game releases or i will get it 2-3 days later?

[slow moth]

Then go to the krug antenna complex in it's basement or to the sawmill

[still ridge]

Correct. The one that is flashing during the emission

[hazy helm]

thank the monolith for no vehicles
AND NO HORSES @rotund fox

[pseudo rivet]

In which case, go to the tunnel underneath the road. It's directly east of the chopper

[still ridge]

There is tunnel very close to you

Hide there

[verbal violet]

got cha I keep dying when the emission starts kik

[slow moth]

Honestly your best bet

[gleaming tangle]

Are there any reviews of the game ?

[honest bridge]

You forgot to say that ow ||will make him cry probably so that would be a good gaming experience||

[hoary kiln]

Build your own opinion. Don’t go based on other’s reviews.

[dense hatch]

it isn't out yet

[stray zodiac]

how do you do that without playing/buying the game, assuming it would be out

[dense hatch]

buying it then refunding it after one and a half hours

[untold salmon]

Yeah refunds are a hell of a thing

[hoary kiln]

I don’t think you understood what I typed.

Don’t get a game based on reviews. Develop your own opinion.

I didn’t say that the game was out. Have a bit more thought when reading, ya?

[dire nimbus]

[stray zodiac]

I understood very well what you said, on the otehr hand you did not understand what I said. I conditioned my question as if I did not do that, it would not make sense.

But my question was, how do you develop your own opinion about a game without watching reviews / watching gameplay?

[hoary kiln]

Still can’t believe people pirate

[hoary kiln]

Quit being weird in here and come to off topic!

[silk sparrow]

dont be sad it ended, be happy its happend

[granite mortar]

no
1650 took that place
and later 3060

at least according to Steam

[sterile spruce]

well seems stalker 2 is cpu bound????

[silk sparrow]

idk, $ to performance it was always 1080

also 970 GTX honor mention

[uneven granite]

probbaly due to Ue5 and lots of AI stuff

[silk sparrow]

3.5GB + 0.5 GB scuffed vram

[sterile spruce]

maybe i should go with ddr 5 6000 mhz rams

[silk sparrow]

but very fast card, I still have it

[fringe wasp]

Well, on the topic of stalker, if I'm looking for a damage rifle, l85, AS Val, or ak74m? Purely for big targets not general use so idc about durability, just whatever kills pseudogiants and other undesirables as hastily as possible. (Anomaly)

[sterile spruce]

i got 5200

[stray zodiac]

wont make any significant difference

[silk sparrow]

i have geforce 440 mx

[granite mortar]

[silk sparrow]

go for lowest CAS latency available

for 13600k you can get 10-30 fps depends of game

[stray zodiac]

no way

[hazy helm]

says on topic of stalker
asks anomaly question

[wicked cave]

1650 was never the gamers hero card, shit performance for too much money

[uneven granite]

still stalker

[hazy helm]

its anomaly

Every Jekans mod is great and has something over the other
I like them all

[granite mortar]

Never said its good
Just said it was the most popular

[hazy helm]

youre supposed to fight me over that, wrong!

[sly moat]

But that isn't something inherent to the game

[wicked cave]

idk if it did surpass, cuz even those got expensive

Hi, it's been years I last played STALKER SoC. So now I feel like playing it again, as I can't remember many details except that I liked it a lot.
Which Mods are you recommending that enhance the base game without chaning the story. New gameplay is okay, enhanced is a must.

[jade coral]

Ayo

[hazy helm]

NA7 Pink Forest

[granite mortar]

Never played NA7

[granite mortar]

Just install IX-Ray

[wicked cave]

gunslinger or arsenal overall is dope, gunslinger is CoP only tho

[granite mortar]

Gunslinger is neither dope nor CoP only

[silk sparrow]

by data i gathered in discord institute and consulted by sircaa this chat is the most active on spamming offtopic messages in categorised channel.

[hazy helm]

play it vanilla unless you find a game breaking problem, then install ZRP

[late yarrow]

Just replayed Metro 2033 for the 3rd time and this is the first time I noticed that they mentioned Roadside Picnic in the Library level

[feral nest]

As Val coolest gun in the world

[stuck crystal]

i hope modding tool is great 😄

[wicked cave]

to my knowledge it was CoP only, and as for the dope part that's subjective

[granite mortar]

Metro finally good?

[ruby warren]

2nd coolest*

[feral nest]

if young metro dont trust yea then play stalker

[halcyon grove]

dude GSC reposting the furry art and the negative replies are actually golden omg

[wicked cave]

911 is referenced in exodus

[feral nest]

VRO my SUGGESTION WAS REMOVED again and i followed format, guess they really hate cigarettes

[hazy helm]

Gunslinger was ported to most new Xray engine forks
it was also fixed this year
Gunslinger the Mod itself for CoP is inferior and bad so

like

[granite mortar]

Pavel called 911 on Artyom

[wicked cave]

i only knew of the mod itself

[hazy helm]

imagine someone putting a soyface over being able to run and shoot now, lol

holy crap, I can jump THEN shoot?!?!

[wicked cave]

and then got bodied

[wheat schooner]

just saw stalker 2 system requirements

[feral nest]

Artyom went out bad

[wheat schooner]

am i cooked if i have 3060ti and ryzen 7 5800x

[wicked cave]

Nop

[granite mortar]

Gunslinger was made for keyboard without antighosting

[hazy helm]

nha youll be fine

[hazy helm]

I hope EVERY stalker mod is made for keyboard

and believe that is the case

[wicked cave]

PiP scopes are cool

[hazy helm]

since console mods are purely cosmetical

[wheat schooner]

how come

[rotund spire]

Will Stalker 2 have Pre-Download?

[stuck crystal]

only for xbox bro

[wheat schooner]

bruh stalker 2 is on pc too

[wicked cave]

there's a team tryna do a open X-ray port of gunslinger, seems cool but development has slowed

[granite mortar]

Keyboards with no antighosting cant take more than three imputs at once

[boreal mica]

You saw it but you seen it?

[hazy helm]

[wheat schooner]

wdym

[granite mortar]

So for example in SoC you cant low crouch and move diagonally at the same time

[feral nest]

will my 9700k be able to keep up

[granite mortar]

As thats 4 key imput

[boreal mica]

Like Rysen 7 5800x is for high and ti 3060 is around medium

[hazy helm]

well last I heard of Yoji he was still working on the port tool to help make weapons in the Gunslinger skeleton so, its not Purely a OXR port of GA since that already exists, its much much more

[wheat schooner]

ye

[granite mortar]

OXR saving the day once again

[wicked cave]

imo they should consider doing an option of world preloading to reduce CPU load

[wicked cave]

yea I haven't kept up with it even tho I'm in the server 💀

[wheat schooner]

do u think i can stil get 60fps? sorry if it sounds stupid i just like confirming it with someone else

[hazy helm]

see the problem with Gunslinger is that its not just a weapon modification, it injected and replaced a new skeleton into CoP, meaning that any new weapon that you wanted to add needed this skeleton, which the Gunslinger team didnt provide
so ppl have been doing their own stuff to update Gunslinger to their own versions, its only gotten good now really

[wicked cave]

my poor tired 2700x is crying, but my 4070ti is gonna be chillin cuz 1080p king

[wicked cave]

imma need some of the gooder versions cuz gunslinger is 30fps on a 4070ti 💀

[hazy helm]

well yhea, the renders are not good and the inertia is busted, I mean, if you want that kinda stuff just see what they did with OP OGSR or smth

I heard that it was fixed in OGSR GA but I cant confirm nor will I

OGSR RA is simply better

and you can fite me on that, but I wont pay for the flight here

[wicked cave]

js send me some of the links or smthn idk cuz I will forget abt it

[old scarab]

anybody has any experience with geforce now?

[wicked cave]

yes

[old scarab]

how is it? is it playable?

[loud gate]

yea, pretty good

[keen drum]

Sounds good. I think I'll do this.

its not using Gunslinger

so you know its good

[nimble cipher]

andz44 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[wicked cave]

Depends on internet connection

[old scarab]

I have 40 Mb download. Little over it

[wicked cave]

only reason I liked gunslinger is cuz the guns are cool. I like they way they handle, feels a lot like ready or not lol

[wicked cave]

you should be fine

[old scarab]

ah thats cool then

will buy the ultimate pass for a month and see how itis

[hazy helm]

like a clunky and awful mess? interestin

[granite mortar]

I played 80 hours of Ark on it
It gud

[wicked cave]

brotha the mod it self is clunky, the guns individually are fine imo

[hazy helm]

RoN does do the same thing where it tries to slow you down in pursuit of tatical-ness which is dumb

[wicked cave]

well u can't rly whip around 8 lbs of steel that quickly lol

[hazy helm]

not really, the original mod has an issue with the way anomations are handled and interface, its due to the skeleton they introduced, and it took to this year for the community to implement a fix to this system

imagine years, without having proc anim

[wicked cave]

I think the installer now has an option for redone hands or smthn idk

haven't checked in a while since it's broken half the time anyways (gunslinger hates my PC)

[granite mortar]

Ngl
I kinda liked Gunslinger in True Stalker
They removed bunch of the stuff that really irritates me in standard GA

[hazy helm]

I dont know what redone hands has anything to do with what Im talking about

[wicked cave]

Cuz I never rly cared about how well it runs since I'm a player who js likes guns

never noticed too many issues other than the terrible performance

[hazy helm]

who doesnt, but there is a handling diff that makes me hate the guns in GA and like how theyre handled originally

its a complete loss of agency when it comes to player handling

[frosty hound]

Today is my BDAY LETS GOOO

[round axle]

aYYYE happy birthday

[hazy helm]

True Stalker didnt have a lot of that, tho theirs was bugged when it came to actually shooting the gun, you could tell that there was a empty animation state attached to the motion of stop shooting the gun which impeded the next tap

[wicked cave]

brb heading to math class

[frosty hound]

I didn't like True stalker because it doesn't have A-LIFE

[nimble cipher]

merku_. has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[wicked cave]

I have good eyes but you may be a tad too close to your screen m8

[ruby warren]

Get a life true stalkers

[frosty hound]

And all the bad cutscenes

[dense hatch]

true stalker suffers a lot from lacking a-life and the famous repetition

[hazy helm]

its not about animations visually clashing
its about animations impeding the input of another action
its a feel thing not a visual thing

[wicked cave]

I will say there was maybe like 40ms of input lag but in a slower paced single player I didn't care all too much

[frosty hound]

0.17 bucks in my steam account, yeah reserving stalker 2 it's impossible

[hazy helm]

the Saiga illustrates this well but the best way to see it is with a automatic gun
put it in full auto, shoot a couple of rounds stop and immediatly start shooting again
you will notice that there is a delay beetween that shoots, just as there is a delay beetween taping
it really shoudnt be there

[wicked cave]

tbh I never used full auto

[ruby warren]

That sounds incredibly annoying

[hazy helm]

its a lot more annoying when tapping since now you are limited in your taps, its also really sad that they didnt give me my full auto saiga

[wicked cave]

Ig that input lag got lost in the 25fps of PiP scopes

[drowsy badge]

Please release Stalker 2 early for my friends birthday today 😁

[hazy helm]

well as a principle I never use nor care for PiP so

[gleaming notch]

Lol got banned on the community thread for questioning optimization. Wow

[hazy helm]

this is why I love NA7

its the best action mod

[wicked cave]

i like the way they look in game, nice parallax effect

[frosty hound]

Lmao today is my bday too

[drowsy badge]

Happy Birthday 😁

[drifting marlin]

Loving playthrough of IWP, where can I find NA7?

[gleaming notch]

if you can't handle optimisation criticism you shouldn't have a comment section , especially suspicious when valid points ive brought up can't be answered so i get banned. Good look Stalker devs!

I will never touch anomaly again

Stalker 2 comes out in 7 days

[hazy helm]

I just need to play another good mod

[patent mortar]

Dont blame me, blame the mod.

good mods are the cure for bad mods

[still ridge]

We will NOT be playing original trilogy mods for a long time

[hazy helm]

didnt The Exception get translated or smth

[pliant spire]

So does the seamless open world mean we won’t have transition zones anymore? Or do we still have them

[hazy helm]

Playing AMK the day S2 releases

[hazy helm]

seamless open world means no transitions

[patent mortar]

Like that time I encounter a large group of Monolith in Zaton not knowing they were crucial to the storyline in Team Lite. @granite mortar

[still ridge]

Two main questlines if I remember correctly. They're not great.

You see those 3 stories everywhere.

Some random for the other 2

[still ridge]

Rip doc x

so CotZ was the first to feature Living Legend?

Rest in Peace man.

Hmmm not sure.

[jaunty pebble]

As far as we know its gonna be 7PM Ukraine time according to the Xbox timer

[hazy helm]

its saying here a 4080 can run it at 4k 60+ (do note with upscalers)

so I dont know what youre talking about

[still ridge]

Because it’s UE5

[lofty fern]

Alright

[hardy bear]

on epic no less

[untold salmon]

nvidia stats

[pale lion]

he's talking4K

[frigid monolith]

refund.

[still ridge]

You will be able to play it at max graphics

[untold salmon]

2160 is 4k

[still ridge]

Why are you seething?

[jaunty pebble]

Nvidia stats are basically marketing tool for DLSS and latest cards

[untold salmon]

some people really hate dlss?

[pale lion]

yes

[dire dagger]

then just don’t play the game

No one’s forcing you to play

[random surge]

@gaunt burrow hey dude. how are you doing?

[sand fiber]

i fuсking hate dlss and fsr <3

[plush relic]

guys how much fps will get 3060ti on high 1080p?

[still ridge]

Welcome to modern games

[untold salmon]

i mean yes but when its from a test then its still a point of reference

[hazy helm]

this guy is right dlss sucks

and fsr

[pale lion]

the graphics shouldn't change but when I turn it on it looks awfull

same FSR

[hardy bear]

I hope to Sid that if we do have to use it, it's implementation isn't awful

[hazy helm]

this guy, give him the right award

[round axle]

it gets a little blurry because it runs and a lower res

[calm bough]

people want ~crisp~ graphics

[hazy helm]

he was right

[sand fiber]

i mean, cyberpunk is still one of the most graphically advanced games and runs like 60fps on high on rx580

[hazy helm]

yhea, so its bad

[still ridge]

I’m out of the loop, if it’s so bad why did everyone say it runs well and looks good even on Xbox?

[wide owl]

it looks worse especially on performance mode

[round axle]

it really not, jus tturn the sharpness up

[untold salmon]

xbox runs natively with upscalers i believe

[dire dagger]

If your using it at 4k

[hazy helm]

bc theyre gaslighting themselves to be able to play games on bad hardware

[dire dagger]

Upscaling 1440p

It looks a lot better but

[untold salmon]

also probably turned down the settings, nvidia ran the test on max

[dire dagger]

Using it at 1080p

It looks terrible

[hardy bear]

I feel so happy that i'm finding other dlss and taa haters

[dire dagger]

Most haters are using it at 1080p

Which is where it sucks

[still ridge]

I literally will only be able to play on 1080p on a crappy laptop that will overheat and I probably will not be complaining about how the game runs

[round axle]

taa is anti alising not an upslcaler

[pale lion]

I think the System Requirements are over exaggerated

[marsh pond]

7 daysssss 😄

[hardy bear]

still can be used for upscaling

[frigid monolith]

yeah no lol

[untold salmon]

"graphics or performance" - forced to choose between graphics and performance - cries (not a shot at you)

[frigid monolith]

stutter engine 5 and baked in lumen

[dire dagger]

There not

[round axle]

its used in conjunction, its not an upscaler

[hazy helm]

if the only usecase for the tech is to fool people that 4k gaming is viable in theory and its not used for what ppl think it is for which is budget gaming, then I dont see the use for the tech especially when its the cause of so much overpricing and gaslighting

[hardy bear]

but even when it isn't specifically the TAAU, I just hate TAA itself. Blurry smudgy mess

[hazy helm]

its just bad

4k gaming isnt viable and you shouldnt force it, we went thru this before, only exception is that before, we clonwed on such people now we enable them

what is going on

[still ridge]

I mean surely a PC is going to look way better than an Xbox, if you have all modern hardware and stuff

[dire dagger]

A fair point for sure but

Using it at 1440p it looks exactly the same on and off

[hazy helm]

used it a 1440p, it looked noticeably worse
I dont know what youre talking about

[pale lion]

but I have a graphics card for epic , ram also and just need to upgrade my cpu . thinking r7 5800x or r9 5900x

[hazy helm]

https://tenor.com/view/eh-meh-jim-jim-halpert-the-office-gif-25317293

[sand fiber]

artefacts are still there and it all feels buttery, especially if it's temporal or whatever the right term is

[hazy helm]

its a technological dead end, what can we do about it

[still ridge]

I’m positive I won’t be able to play past 1080 if I want 60 frames on my computer

[hardy bear]

the nvidia benchmark gives me some hope, but still gonna wait for actual benchmarks

[pale lion]

RIP for those who preordered the game and didnt see the requirements

[untold salmon]

they've still got a week to refund

[pale lion]

true

[celest goblet]

It's on them if they don't, they have time

[celest blaze]

To be fair why are pre-ordering demanding games with a weak pc

[frigid monolith]

bro wdym. 1080P is also barely viable on this game on a 4090. What are you on

[pale lion]

I think I will play 1080p epic on like 120fps

[vivid fossil]

they can still refund after the launch just need to be under the 2 hour playtime

[hazy helm]

I only know the Stalker 2 specs

[still ridge]

I’ve got a dell laptop with a 3050Ti and ryzen 7 6800, so I think I’ll get 60 frames if I’m lucky on medium graphics

[untold salmon]

yep but technically still a week

[celest blaze]

Stalker 2 isn't out yet so idk what you're talking about

[untold salmon]

1080p on a 4090 is 85fps? thats viable

[pale lion]

6000 series of amd cpu doesnt exist :d

[celest goblet]

At a certain point you gotta treat people as responsible for their own purchasing decisions

pre ordering is always a gamble, that they took

[still ridge]

Uhhhh

[untold salmon]

what???

[celest blaze]

@untold salmon disregard him

[still ridge]

According to my PC it does

Processor AMD Ryzen 7 6800H with Radeon Graphics, 3201 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s)

[untold salmon]

i think hes thinking of ryzen 6 not 6000

[pale lion]

and 2 years ago I thought I will play stalker 2 with i7 3770 and gtx 1060 3gb

[celest goblet]

In what world is above 60 not good

[pale lion]

ryzen 6 doesnt exist also

[craggy jewel]

so are the new mutants a secret or what

[untold salmon]

ye thats what i mean

[celest blaze]

Console users who cope

[amber perch]

6 days and 20hrs

[still ridge]

did I say 6 and not 7?

[untold salmon]

we know of some, the deer, the cat, uhhhhh

[loud gate]

Mate, this is not only one of the best looking games, but also one that has to calculate weapon ballistics, A-Life, etc., which are also intensive on the CPU

[pale lion]

you said 6000

[still ridge]

how is this in terms of how I might run stalker 2

[granite mortar]

It wasnt sold separately
But it can be found in prebuilds and laptops

[untold salmon]

lemme check

[granite mortar]

I think

[celest blaze]

Aslong as I have a stable 60 I'm happy anything else is a bonus

[celest goblet]

All I know is back in 2008 I ran clear sky on a family desktop that could barely manage dynamic lighting at 1024x768 and it was some of the most fun I had gaming

[craggy jewel]

all ive seen is the cat and i barely consider that new, rather just a reintroduced cut mutant from early games, very surprised we havent seen the deer outside of that magazine from 4 years ago

[celest goblet]

Lumen is apparently pretty cpu heavy too vs hardware RT

[hardy bear]

70-80 I know i'm aiming for

[celest blaze]

I'm curious to see how maxed s2 will run

[untold salmon]

if you go low or medium you should be good

[still ridge]

Facts. It’s going to be insane

[celest blaze]

I get 110+ fps with modded fallout 4 (800 mods)

[hardy bear]

800??

[still ridge]

Figured. As long as I get 60 and the game looks decent I’ll be fine

[celest blaze]

That's one of my smaller lists lol

[plush relic]

guys who know how much fps will be at high 1080p 3060 ti

[untold salmon]

maxed i should just barely reach 60fps but i'll probably just stick to high

[still ridge]

In other words as long as it isn’t unplayable on my computer I will be playing it

[loud gate]

Integrated Graphics..

Let's hope for at least low

[still ridge]

LOL

[untold salmon]

on medium you should be good for 60fps, high idk

[still ridge]

I might be cooked huh

[still ridge]

I mean, it is a laptop

[celest blaze]

I'm praying you're not cooked

[plush relic]

ty

[still ridge]

3050 ti laptop for what it’s worth

[untold salmon]

oh wait

[granite mortar]

4GB Vram?

[untold salmon]

ed

[still ridge]

With this, so I’m really hoping I can play it

[untold salmon]

my condolences

[north violet]

Didn't you know that if you aren't able to hit a perfect and consistent 120 FPS then the game is unoptimized garbage?

[untold salmon]

silly me i shouldve known

[plush burrow]

oh god, do you have an excel sheet, because now im interested

[still ridge]

Am I cooked?

[untold salmon]

i think you're cooked

[north violet]

You fool, you must now surrender your PC Master Race ID card and throw yourself into the nearest trash compactor.

[plush relic]

maybe s2 will be optimized later

[untold salmon]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[north violet]

Pretty sure GSC is on the record as saying that post-launch optimization work is planned.

[still ridge]

What does he mean “you won’t be running this game”

[static compass]

[celest blaze]

No, but it i can tell you what it is. Im using a wabbajack modlist called magnum opus

[granite mortar]

It was optimized prior
But it will require quite a bit of vram

[still ridge]

Like, it will be unplayable in terms of fps and graphics?

[static compass]

Post launch kot?

[untold salmon]

you need a certain amount of vram or it just might not start

[frigid monolith]

Man I was so excited for this game. But after reading those system reqs... I run a 4070ti with an 5800x 3D

[untold salmon]

tho tbf they said the same about gow and that turned out to not be accurate

[north violet]

Your bones will be recycled for their mineral content and used to create new PC components.

Rejoice, for your flesh is renewed in the arms of the Omnissiah!

[still ridge]

Wait how did you know if I had 4 gigs of vram

[celest blaze]

I run a 4070ti and i7 12700 and I'm excited

[untold salmon]

i dont but if its a laptop then you might, check yourself

[untold salmon]

dude you'll be fine?

[celest blaze]

Bros crying for nothing lol

[loud gate]

Yea, and you're good lol

[static compass]

[boreal mica]

I'm still hanging there with you leaving me destroyed with 3050 but 6gigs.

[north violet]

My dude, those components are fine, what are you worried about?

[dire dagger]

You meet min spec

I think

[plush relic]

spartan pls say, how much fps u think will get r5 5500 and 3060 ti

[celest blaze]

I'm playing ultra modded skyrim with over 3500 mods and I get good frames with a 4070ti stalker 2 is nothing imo

[frigid monolith]

I have a 4k montior... I got it on sale for 400. was 900

[plush burrow]

how much ram?

[north violet]

Ahh, that's the problem.

[frigid monolith]

yeah..

[celest blaze]

12 gig of vram 32 gig of ddr4 system ram

[boreal mica]

Ya I know, but I wanted to hear that from you.

[untold salmon]

dont run max and you should be good

[spring spoke]

Honestly pissed I won't get to play the game on release, I have to work out of town all n text week rip 😓

[north violet]

GTX 1660ti 6GB, i7-10700k, 32GB RAM, 1080p here.

[dire dagger]

Yup it has nearly 2x the cuda cores of the 1060

[plush burrow]

i mean you can always play it at a lower resolution

[frigid monolith]

I always run high only. Ultra is gimmicky.. imo

[static compass]

I'm off on launch day

[loud gate]

Depends

[untold salmon]

Oh high you'll probably be fineeeee

[celest blaze]

Jealous

[plush relic]

1920x1080

[boreal mica]

It's also nice of you for pinning that message

[dire dagger]

I mean asking for numbers is like asking me to shoot someone in the head 50 feet away while blind folded

[plush burrow]

i got 64 gb of ram myself

[north violet]

In the future I don't think I'll go higher than 1440p for my resolution, maybe 2k at max.

[boreal mica]

Maybe it will destroy some dreams, but some won't be hanging there.

[still ridge]

So. Chat am I cooked? 4 gigs dedicated memory

[untold salmon]

same thing isnt it?

[dire dagger]

64 gig of ram does nothing for yah

[untold salmon]

It's jover

[round frost]

It's made with Unreal so I'm going to allocate more RAM in the Streaming Pool Size if needed (I think devs should consider adding this feature in game). With that said, my current gaming rig is a 5950x with a 3080 RTX so I'm going to be okay.

[frigid monolith]

yeah. Ill downgrade to 1440P

[celest blaze]

I almost got 4k monitor but settled for 165hz 2k

[hardy bear]

Can always download more

[dire dagger]

Fr

[frigid monolith]

also oled

[nimble cipher]

timothy6952 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[dire dagger]

Like the website said 10ghz memory on ddr10

[loud gate]

High-Epic Graphic settings 60+ fps

[north violet]

*sigh*

[plush burrow]

it might not do much for me game experience wise but i use it for studies

[dire dagger]

Except you can now buy 10ghz memory

[plush relic]

oh wow that should be awesome

[quiet ridge]

6600XT and 5800X here, on 1080p I think I am good on high

[dire dagger]

Oh in that case totally fair

I retract my statement

[loud gate]

Rough estimation, but I think it should be the case.

[north violet]

No idea tbh, I'm not a hi-res enthusiast so I've never paid a ton of attention to this stuff.

[still ridge]

So if I only have 4 gigs of vram there’s nothing I can do huh. @dire dagger

[dire dagger]

I mean you can hope and pray

[still ridge]

Not even a chance I can run it?

[north violet]

If you only have 4GB of VRAM then I think you're screwed.

[untold salmon]

as far as im aware its an interchangable term

[dire dagger]

Not a chance I wouldn’t say that but

[north violet]

Gotcha.

[plush burrow]

do you have a laptop or desktop?

[dire dagger]

Best way to explain is like

[still ridge]

Laptop, 3050 ti with Ryzen 7 6800

[round frost]

You could allocate 48GB in the streaming pool so it's easier for texture streaming or asset loading.

[dire dagger]

You know how there’s 2 versions of the gt 1030 one with ddr4 and one with gddr5

[still ridge]

All integrated graphics

[hollow plank]

I run 4k also, been thinking of getting a 2k oled

[boreal mica]

I mean they've told me years ago I can't run Witcher 3 on my previous setup. Mine geralt had no textures, there were no shadows around but the story... Man there was a story.

[dire dagger]

3050 ti is dedicated bro

Wdym

[still ridge]

I know nothing about hardware like that

[dire dagger]

Ok well basically the gddr5 version is like 2x faster

[plush burrow]

the 4gb being vram i am guessing ? or regular memory

[tacit nova]

Hello Stalkers

[dire dagger]

So with shared memory you have 4 gigs of fast graphics memory and the rest is piss slow system memory

[still ridge]

Correct. 4gb vram

[plush burrow]

aaah a pain

you cant upgrade vram sadly

[still ridge]

https://tenor.com/view/aaahh-shit-idiot-lol-fuck-gif-12700284

[dire dagger]

Like I’ll put it this way the chances are not zero but

[hollow plank]

Downloadmorevram.com

[still ridge]

LMAO

[plush burrow]

not yet atleast

Im gonna pattent upgradable vram

[still ridge]

y’know. Maybe I’ll just get an Xbox?

[dire dagger]

If minimum spec is 1060 6 gig it’s worrying

[boreal mica]

You can also buy second hand Series S, it is confirmed that S2 will be supporting mouse and keyboard. And used Series S is cheaper than a GPU.

[hollow plank]

Probably best

[dire dagger]

That already exists

Toy jsut need a hot hair gun
