60 fps mode without ray tracing is ideal, or 1440p
Will probably pick up on PC at this point even though 4K 60 there for me is gonna be a little tight on a 2070 super without some tanked settings

Raytracing is easily the most overrated graphical feature out there. The performance penalty is simply not work it.

Based on how WD1 and WD2 ran on PC i think this is preferable. Even on a GTX 1080 WD2 would struggle to hit 60fps without the visual fidelity taking a massive hit.

The game is like this on my 2070 s even today, just really shit optimization I think

Have to mess with settings to get a stable framerate

I was hoping there would also be a 60fps option.

Same on how it would be cool to see a 30fps w/RT option on Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

if you don't launch with a performance mode when native is 30fps... I'll keep it moving.

Options are good.

Lol wasn't there a thread the other day about the Xbox store dropping RT from the description?

Also, another 4k RT launch game.

Wish they'd show some proper before/after footage of the RT on console so I know if it's worth waiting for the PS5 version.

As an aside, there was a JorRaptor YouTube video from back in like August where he confirms this game uses the PS5's new 'Activities' feature.

Bummer. I'm going to check it out on PC with Uplay+. See if i can get 1440/60fps with raytracing all turned off. RT still hasn't wowed me at all. I'm more interested in the processing used for sound rather than reflective surfaces.

All of these ray traced games on consoles really make me wonder how big Navi will stack up against the 3080.

I wonder when will people around here realize that 60fps will not be the norm for single player games.

There really needs to be rules against people moaning about not having 60fps. It's getting as bad as port begging.

That's unfortunate. 4K is a waste. Why not 1440p at 60 hz with all the effects turned up?

Good to see! I'd like to think this will silence the Twitter trolls who relentlessly claim no RT on whichever console, but nothing ever does.

What do we think will be the XSS equivalent? 1080? 1440?

We have to see how RT looks on AMD hardware tho.

I don't expect Watch Dogs Legion RT on consoles to be as good as the one you find on RTX cards.

Yeah, I was saying all of these ray tracing games make me hopeful for AMD's implementation on PC. Also why can't they be better than say, the majority of early RTX cards? I wouldn't be surprised if they're better than atleast the 2070 at ray tracing, if not the 2080.
