RDR2 PC On Ultra Low Settings Is Something Special
- Thread starter Schlorgan
- Start date
I remember the PC low settings screenshot thread from GAF, that was fun
First Dead Space was my favourite, Isaac's suit looked kinda cool with the lowest settings

Thought this was built to into the game when I first started the video and was almost ready to give huge props to Rockstar. Scalablilty is probably my favorite thing about PCs, I'm fine with PS2 graphics if I can take something modern with me on my old ass laptop.
Does running boostbox in this mode actually make a big fps difference or is it more "because we can"?

It's a combination of ultra (mainly textures), high, medium and some settings lower than is possible on PC for the Xbox One X. I assume that the other consoles still retain the ultra textures but go even further down in the settings.
The textures setting is weird because everything but ultra is potato quality. Instead of offering excessively high quality textures on ultra they just seem to have the same texture quality you have on consoles and the lower quality LODs below that which just makes the whole setting pretty pointless.
I actually wish games offered super low settings that made the game look more stylized by using lower poly models and so on. My favorite setting in a game was in Moto Racer where you could just turn off the textures and smooth shading which made the game look totally different. It was far better than blurry mipmaps or pixelated textures and allowed good performance with a software renderer. Give me Superhot styled RDR2!
Is that so? What specs you have? Do you mind posting the tweaks they mentioned? Haven't been following the performance thread but thinking about picking up RDR2 for Christmas. Hoping to get 60fps on my 1060/6600k. Sadly bought the game for my PS4 pro and had to sell it soon after as the 30fps with all the motion blur made me sick which is unfortunate as I hear lots of good things.
More on topic, sad that isn't an official setting in the game, it has a certain charm.
Perhaps I'm just broken, but I'd definitely enjoy the game just as much on "low" from what I saw from the video in the topic start.
I mean, if you played on console you pretty much did.
Would probably be closer to the Low settings rather than Super Low.
I know its bait, but sometimes one needs to trigger a Trap to disarm it..
Lets See some real RDR2 PS4 Screenshots shall we?!
You have been dealt with. Have a nice Day Sir's

Was expecting this. I leave this thread satisfied.
They were joking... no need to get worked up about it.
Joking or not without context for uninformed folks it could be believeable..
Better save than sorry.
General LOD setting does not affect certain props and such probably.
You only know you're wearing Arthur's hat because it says so lmao.
Arthur back at camp.
Treemendous pop in!

With the exception of a few areas where it looked like textures we're just plain missing (the brick wall), I'm actually surprised at how good that looks on low.
Idk what it is, but there's some form of beauty with PS2 games that they've still retainedreminds me of Smuggler's Run on launch PS2

Wow, haven't seen this in such a long time. I remember it being one of those games where they marketed as "you see that mountain in the background?, yeah you can actually drive all the way up there".

I played the heck out of that game. I'd love a modern take but that's hella unlikely.
As for the ultra low settings? I'm getting Fade to Black vibes.
I imagine the number of different LODs this game has for nearly every asset is fucking mind-bending.
