Metro Exodus Review Thread
- Thread starter CenturionNami
- Start date
We've been pretty spoiled as far as well-reviewed and layered single player games in recent years, unfortunately they've had mixed sales depending.
I think I'm going to replay the previous games while I wait for this to hit Steam. Glad its getting solid reviews and hope it sells well too
There's usually two of them and they're really hilarious to watch! :)
They got a special early access pass from Koch Media to stream the game.

Of course that was just me and I agree I think the reception is about what I expected. Many weren't fans it seems like of the voices or the cutscenes. But overall ya enjoyed them and the different pace.
the first 2 games did have health regen (at least the Redux versions did)
That's weird, my health never regenerated when I played Hardcore on Metro Last Light Redux, and I replayed that last month.
that explains it...I played both Redux versions over the last 2 weeks...but played them on Normal difficulty
Ah! I said hard but meant Hardcore. There is no health regen in both Ranger And Ranger Hardcore difficulty
Blood smears really have not been much of a thing this generation. But that glow from the fire is just something.
Think my 4930k and 780 Ti will be able handle this game well or should I just settle for the PS4 version?
Last Light had a mix of linear levels and open levels. Once you finished a level, you couldn't go back, hence the linear overall progression. Exodus is the same in terms of both level design and progression.
Anyway, this is all redundant now. The embargo has been lifted and Exodus has received an average score that's about the same as the last two games. I'm not surprised nor should you be. Believing that Exodus would have a significantly higher score than 2033 and Last Light didn't really have any basis in reason or logic, just optimism.
There are plenty of single-player offline games, especially on PC. Resident Evil 2 remake came out about two weeks ago.
We'll fine out more when Digital Foundry does their video on it but hopefully a smooth 30fps.
I doubt the 1070 can even do 1080/60 properly without dropping some settings.
Yeah because 80, 81 and 84 are average now. You are exactly what's is wrong with the gaming community.
The sites that rate games and the industry itself are the ones who decided that an 80 is average for a AAA release. Don't blame pleebs for going along with them.
Slept a night on it and i will get this game tomorrow. I loved the previous games so i can only imagine this one will Please me as well
Y'all know damn well how that scale works.
so when a game has DLSS support does that mean that there won't be any other AA setting in the game?...for example Metro Exodus has DLSS, will it also have for example TAA or SMAA?...if it does can you use both DLSS + TAA at the same time?
2) can I enable DLSS with my GTX 1070 card or does it require a 2000 series card?

A fair number of games that are extremely highly regarded in the PC gaming scene score in the 80s. For example, the most beloved Hitman games tend to score in the low 80s. STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl and Call of Pripyat scored 82 and 80 on MC respectively. STALKER is arguably the zenith of open world FPS design. It doesn't get better than STALKER. STALKER is what all these other games aspire to be within spitting distance of. Fallout: New Vegas hitting 84 instead of 85 is kind of infamous, but New Vegas is regarded as one of the greatest RPGs ever created in a lot of circles.
I think Metro is in a curious place because it's selling to a wider audience, particularly console gamers, but deep in its heart it's an Eastern European PC game.
I meant "average" in the mathematical sense. In other words, the Metacritic score.
Crikey, some people are really defensive about this game. For what it's worth, I played and enjoyed 2033 and Last Light. I intend to play Exodus when it comes out on Steam. I'm simply pointing out that there was no reason to expect this to be 4A's Witcher 3 and the average (i.e. Metacritic) scores demonstrate that.
The ACG video review claims base consoles hold up, and look great both in terms of performance and fidelity.
The 1060 can barely get to 60 without dropping stuff, the 1070 should fair a bit better. Sadly, I don't have a 1070 to test, but i can confirm the 1060.
Part of me is like "I should upgrade from 970 finally", the other part of me just realizes I prefer playin on console 99% of the time.
And i obviously understood what you posted. Mostly, cause i have my pitchfork stored in the garage, which is a bit far away from my pc.
