They didn't push it far enough...
And lets be honest, any fps over 30 is just vanity.
I'm pretty sure you're joking.... but just to be sure. You're joking, right?
Yeah, it won't. They always say high, and it turns out to be a mix of low, medium and high. Always. Hell sometimes, you have settings set to lower than the lowest on PC (Dying light for example and LOD).
That only tells me they should have pushed the graphics harder.
I'd like to think it's a minority but entitlement and ignorance are rife within the PC community, and I don't think those are all ex-console gamers (or gamers playing on PC & consoles). Just take a look at the Steam forums...Oh God. It's really sad and I can perfectly understand why some developpers simply chose to aim for strict parity with consoles so any decently high-end machine is going to run the game at really high settings and high enough framerate. Too many so called PC gamers have a completely fabricated, exaggerrated idea of what their hardware is capable of, and straight comparisons to consoles don't always work. I've tried shading the debate but I have only been met with venom or a simple apologist.I think you mean vocal minority Or maybe not, the sentiment really is rampant.
Yes, and that lends credence to the idea that the very loud ones are not necessarily people with a console mindset. It's just that some PC gamers have no clue about the hardware they bought or naively associate price to an indealized, arbitrary level of performance.Crysis suffered form this too. Everyone complained that they couldn't run it at max with their high end gear, never stopping to take a look and realize that even at medium settings the game looked BETTER THAN ANY OTHER GAME ON ANY PLATFORM EVER.
Humility is the good point of the one who does not have any.If 60 FPS is vanity, I don't want to be modest
Yes, the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions had previously been confirmed to run at the PC equivalent of High. Though that remains to be seen when the game comes out.
I would hope a $550 GPU could handle this game @ 60fps on the highest settings. Would be rather ridiculous if that was not the case.
True, but 1080p isn't really the resolution PC gamers with high end cards aim for.
So if that's for a 980, I'm guessing my 780 Ti will do something like High at 60 FPS? Or 30-60? So it's... It's uhh... It's almost at the PS4 setting?
Alrighty then... Brb selling kidney so I can afford a new card so my system doesn't get shat on by a PS4 further into the generation when developers master the art of turning ancient hardware into powerful shit.
The stated recommended requirements should be 1080/60 at max settings imo. If its the requirements the developer recommends for playing their game, surely it should be the best it can look and run at a smooth framerate.
I know it's not really the case, but sometimes it feels like people don't even give a shit about the gameplay, or the fact it's a RPG. Graphics obsessed.

That's a terribly silly argument. The REASON I'm buying this game is that it's an RPG. We don't know enough about gameplay to know for sure, but I'm assuming it's like the Witcher 2 but (hopefully) refined. That doesn't mean I'm not interested in discussing the graphics of a VIDEO game, or that by discussing graphics, somehow that means I don't care about gameplay or lore and story.
Aww yes this makes me feel better now. This is the motivation my GPU needed. Ain't no PS4 gonna poop on my card! *cuddles gpu* I'm sorry bro. Should never have doubted you.Seriously, you think your 780ti is going to be beaten by a PS4?
Common now, son! If anythign is going to be shitting on anything is your 780ti, laying a massive, massive turd on your PS4.
Don't worry. As mentioned, Ps4 has lower tha high textures, LOD at like half of PC. It's going to be a mix of low and medium and possibly a setting on high at 30 FPS. Your 780ti ia about 20% slower than a 980. You're good for better than PS4 graphics at 60 FPS.
Also, a PS4 will NEVER outperform a 780ti. It's just not going to happen. The only difference between PC and console hardware right now is the CPU overhead of DX11 (and less efficient compute use). Once DX12 and Open GL next hit, even that goes away.

What does ultra mean? What kind of anti aliasing? This says nothing.
if youre talking about 1440p, thats a VERY small percentage of folks. think outside gaf
I'm not getting that level graphics. It's been a beast so far. My post was only regarding Witcher 3. I had just read that the PS4 version of it would be running at High 1080/30. And since we know the 980 is at Ultra 1080/60, and that the 780 Ti is weaker, I assumed the 780 Ti would get about High 1080/60 or less, bringing it close to the PS4 setting. Turns out apparently the PS4 isn't actually going to be at the high setting.Dude if you're getting PS4 level graphics out of a 780 TI then you got some problems. I have a regular 780, I got lucky on the over clock, and it is a monster compared to the PS4 capabilities.
Yeah, I just figured out how to enable this yesterday and messed around with it. I had tried it previously and my TV wouldn't display anything and I realized yesterday that I needed to go into the properties and check all the resolutions.
Just a question about this, though. Is this meant to be so you can turn off AA? Or I guess more specifically, what features does this enable me to turn off?
Confirms my fears that the game will look shitty and has been heavily downgraded. I wish it wasn't so hard to cancel digital pre-orders.

My bad
Or triple buffering. Or adaptive v-sync. Or G-sync. Or freesync.Near 60 fps this means either 30 fps with vsync, or screen tearing without.
How on earth does this confirm anything?

This is PC gaming.
and implements NVIDIA’s HairWorks (which Gamestar was also allowed to enable, and managed to sustain almost 60fps continuously).
Hopefully the game plays nice with g-sync and/or sli, since I'll be trying to tackle this with two 980's at 4k.
