C'mon illfonic, we know you can do it

So there ya go. New game has the one thing I’ve asked for sinc ethis game launched… RESOLUTION SCALE…

You know how to implement it, now DO IT, fucking DO IT. It is much needed in PHG so the performance is increased substantially by decreasing the internal rendering resolution without having to change the Windows OS resolution, play on exclusive fullscreen mode or lowering graphics to the point where the game looks like it was made 15 years ago.

you mean support for FSR or dlss 3?
I’m temped to play Terminator Resistence to see what the fuss is about. Because otherwise, an 8GB video card will be all you need for the next 5 years. Play all the games you had or wanted because suddenly you can have it cope in 1080p but upscaled through this stuff to 4k and not have any frame drops.

Resolution scale has been around long before Nvidia and AMD implemented their own solutions for it. Their plugins is just an easier way to do it, but they require specific GPU’s.

Games like Squadrons, Aliens FTE, Resident Evil Remakes, among many others, offer this feature without the need of a DLSS or FSR supported GPU.

Their new ghostbusters game also offers it without the need of a DLSS or FSR supported GPU

Example, their new game runs at about 35FPS on the menu at 1440P using Epic graphic settings and scaled to 100% on my system. At 50% scale, using the same graphic settings, I get 130 FPS. The visual impact, while noticeable, is preferable to lowering the graphics settings, which surely makes the game look bunkers

Its a task of give and take. So i said 1080p and then scaling by 200%, it doesn’t always work that way. Some times its even less then that, like you must shrink to 720p if you’re going to get somethink like 2k.

scaling higher will not improve performance, but the opposite. It will render higher resolutions and output at a lower one. Unless is a very old game, almost no games will benefit for it. TBH, to this day I haven’t seen a game that will visually benefit from rendering it at higher resolutions.

What you want is the ability of decreasing the rendering resolution without reducing the output resolution. The result is a smoothed out pixelated game with a significant increase in FPS.

Pretty much that’s the way consoles work. They output in 4K, 1080P, whatever, but the internal rendering resolution is lower (720P for PS3, 720P and 1080P for PS4 and 1080P/1440P for PS5)

No matter what consoles junkies tell you, no, no PS5 game actually renders 60 frames a second at 4K. The hardware simply does not have the computational power to calculate the data of every pixel. Is mathematically impossible.

Right but there is some interpolation involved. Its not just as if you play a video in VLC and play it in fullscreen.

yes, it’s AI upscaling, that’s what the technologies are, but is not just DLSS and FSR. This shit has been around for almost a decade now. The advantage of DLSS and FSR is that there are specific cores on the GPUs dedicated for it.

Not so much different than when physX came out and it was only compatible with certain Nvidia GPU’s… eventually it was adopted to be integrated whether the GPU supported it or not. Now PhysX is not even computed by the GPU.

Resolution scale was the inverse, it was adopted as a non-gpu exclusive technology and THEN nvidia and amd made something about it.

I still think in the end, it won’t matter and games will implement it regardless and DLSS and FSR will disappear. It’s really not even needed. Any game can support this on ANY gpu. They don’t need to implement proprietary technologies from those vendors… specially when, maybe in a decade, integrated GPU’s from intel will be able to run games from Today

Me try find Gusavo Fing in KFC?

They’re not doing shit. They haven’t been actually working on this game for over a year 🤷‍♂️ I really hope Ghostbusters tanks and they go out of business

More trash

lol yeah do some more superfluous shit and ignore the critical imbalance and bugs. Just buy a better graphics card if you’re so into fucking PC gaming, my guy.
