Eurogamer : How Death Stranding PC delivers on Kojima Productions' original vision
- Thread starter Stacey
- Start date
The only thing I feel would be missing on PC is the controls - having shoulder buttons mapped to lean works so well to put you in Sam's shoes. If you play with mouse/keyboard I don't think you get that same tactile feeling. This is one game you probably have to play with a controller on PC to get the full experience.
They say the quality preset for DLSS has better than Native image quality. Really curious to see that.
DLSS 2.0 is insane.
DLSS 2.0 is insane.
That tracks with what we saw in Control, at least for certain types of objects. DLSS 2.0 is a gamechanger, thank god it's coming to Cyberpunk
It's the future and should be the standard tech used by all developers moving forward.
When playing on PS4 it really felt like this game and it's gameplay would shine on a monitor with headphones. Just zone out and make your deliveries. Super excited to play again and try for 100% this time on PC.
Lean has been done before on PC. I can remember it in Crysis.
I'm looking forward to playing it again -- much slower this time. I tried to blast through it to get the whole narrative done to not get spoiled, and I think that's the absolute wrong way to play it. Can't wait to slowly wander around some gorgeous Iceland-esque landscapes.
Mentioned here:
PS5 is obviously capable technically. But as always with consoles, you're at the mercy of the developer to release a patch etc.
Cant wait for benchmarks. This would be the game that would exhibit a boost from specific console optimization. And since visuals dont scale above the console its a perfect game to compare.
In a sense. lol
It's not that it doesn't make sense at lower resolutions.. it's just that the more information they have to work with (ie the higher the resolution) the better the results will be.
But I would argue that the real challenge, and goal is utilizing extremely low resolutions and getting solid 1080p-1440p looking results from that.
The idea isn't JUST to improve performance for higher end GPUs.. it's to enable games to function on lower end GPUs as well, thus broadening the potential market.
Their official page compares 1080p so I'm guessing no?
Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS)
Boosts frame rates and generates sharp images.
developer.nvidia.com
This paragraph confuses me the heck out of me, does this mean the game is still only updating at 30hz internally? If you're running above 30FPS, it's not 33ms per frame anymore.

Right? The idea that such performance is possible is exciting for the RTX 30 series. I hope games like Halo Infinite are being built with such technology in mind.
I wonder how high my fps will get at 1080p with my RTX 2080. I really want to push this 240Hz screen.
I feel that way about the majority of non first-person shooter console ports; that I end up playing on a 65'' OLED from the couch anyway.
We've seen it already in Control and Wolfenstein Younblood, check the DF video about DLSS 2.0 in those games.
Not true at all:
Skip to about 10 minutes.
It's free performance, even at 1080p, without losing image quality.
Yeah, after asking i immediately found that exact video. Crazy what it can do, the 540p comparison is super impressive.
It makes sense to use in 1080p if you are targeting the highest performance possible or high ray tracing presets (which are not available in Decima Engine).
Since Death Stranding is about visual spectacle.... I would use DLSS to boost internal resolution to the maximum at 60 fps.
I'm interested if someone can play Death Stranding at 8K and 60 fps on some stupid rig like RTX 2080 Ti or SLI.
Hmm, this interesting:
So GPUs like the 7970/50 and the refreshed R9 280/X won't be able to run the game. Gotta admit, they had a good run man, the 7970 launched in January 2012, predating the current generation consoles while also being more powerful than them. I wonder if Horizon Zero Dawn will have the same requirement when it launches on PC?

I mean I know lean can be done on PC this is no MW2 meme but Q/E for lean would be terrible in this game. Each shoulder button maps to each hand, so you use them both to hold an item in your hand (hold the button gripped to keep holding the item) and also pull on your back strap to lean. You have to do this constantly throughout the game and the actions correspond directly to Sam's movements. The game would be unplayable if those were mapped to q/e. You need one button per hand, F/mouse1 would probably be the closest experience. I'm still double dipping on PC and I'm a diehard m/kb guy but this is one instance where it can't work as well.
I don't think I could put myself through that nonsensical story again, no matter how pretty it may look.
If you were willing to go with 1080p DLSS Quality Mode, that would look about as good as native with performance a little lower than if you were at 720p. You probably won't get 240fps, but you'll get one hell of a smooth image, especially with G-Sync.
As people can see our Video is not live while Part of the article is - our Video will go live tomorrow. I am not happy that the video cannot go live today. Video has been ready for a week...
Hopefully on PC, but it doesn't seem like the consoles will have much machine learning performance for that specific type of thing. Maybe they could make some weird hybrid method or something.
This is a weird thing to say, you have more choice for controllers than you did with the Playstation release. Including the one you played it with on PS4.
Is it a scheduling issue, as in something else is scheduled to go live today? I am looking forward to see your analysis.
Edit: Or maybe an embargo?
