Just writing it off as wasted money. It's the normal difficulty. My first playthrough, I was keeping it simple. It does take time. I think it took about 10+ hours of gameplay to get to there. I'm playing the campaign so there are some specific gates to getting access to research and minions. I took a big break from it to play Horizon Zero Dawn...

LadyCrimson Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 (edited) Well, I updated Win10 (PITA, pffft) ... but I have no visual frame of reference for this game - since I never played it for more than 20 minutes or something - so I have no idea if it looks "better" or not. I feel like some darker early intro bits it looked more washed out than before (black levels). Other times it looks perfectly fine. Dunno. I have it basically "maxed/Ultra" but with DLSS on Quality for 4k/50-60fps. Without DLSS/native-4k, it's around 30-40fps. Basically, like Cyberpunk was (for me), 4k/DLSS etc. performance wise, maybe a bit better than CP. ...if I can make myself play farther I'll try to get some shots of something more lighting/RT heavy, if I can figure out what's supposed to be different.

LadyCrimson Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) I haven't played much further (my "wife" is leading me somewhere outside) - the lack of manual saving is annoying me since I tend to suck at these type of games - but I thought this was a good comparison article re: ray tracing in this Metro edition. Mostly it seems to brighten/lighten up areas that used to be dominantly black/dark so you can see more details, notice npc's etc more easily in some situations that were too "black" before. Less noticeable general effect outdoors. I still feel like in some cases it makes blacks look a tad "grey" or at least it feels too lit up for my tastes. I'd probably like it somewhere in the middle. I turned the gamma down a notch or two, seems to help. But it does look good, simply a preference thing I suppose. Anyway ... outside of that article's examples, here's a couple of my own early pics I still had of original, vs. Enhanced: ..according to article, this spot was much more "pitch black/grey", now it's warmer and feels sunlit.

LadyCrimson Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) I missed the large, center single-cities 7 Days no longer does, and this is even more ginormous, would take forever to "clear out" every POI. Thanks, 3rd-party map generator! I also made the block grid size smaller so POI's are closer together. When you run around ground-level, it feels much more like a city or suburb, to me anyway.

LadyCrimson Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) Why does everything in this game want to knock me down and rip my face off? NOT a nice doggy. Pardon me, just keeping the mud off my shoes. ...I got to the train, which is probably about where I stopped originally. I circled around a bit and decided to jump down what appeared to be a 6-7 foot drop to an area below a platform (instead of climbing the ladder like game told me to). Apparently six feet is too high or something and I landed so hard I insta-died. I went "Pffft" and exited game again. 10-15 minutes every day, that's about my pace. Hah.

LadyCrimson Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Apparently, zombies don't like (or couldn't catch) pet bunnies. And while it was cute and all, standing there looking around, I whacked it and ate it myself. Survival, baby! See that shard of broken glass in my hand? You can eat it to kill yourself. Which is darkly funny. (it's really a mechanic they added long ago, in case you get stuck in terrain or something, since death=respawn....I've never had that glitch tho and never bothered carrying glass around.
