Red Dead Redemption II for PC |OT| For A Few Hundred Hours More
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
What time will Planet Zoo launch? It says 28 hours on Steam for me. Is it a global release?
They're using Akamai. The same content delivery service as Steam's.
Probably a bit better image clarity and, if allowed, unlocked and higher fps. If in serious doubt, wait for a Digital Foundry video. They will cover it 100%.
Way better due to higher framerate being more responsive and just having more control options. I plan to play it with the Steam Controller to make use of mouse-like aiming and analog stick movement to get the best of both.
Probably a higher frame rate, assuming your CPU is decent i5/i7 or Ryzen.
I originally got to Chapter 3 or 4 on PS4 before I got busy and never went back to the game... The lack of save data transfer to PC is a shame but I suppose this gives me chance to start fresh and remind myself of everything.
I'm curious if the trade off of losing 4K HDR will be outweighed by the 144hz G-Sync fluidity.

I wish I could push myself to get used to the steam controller. I just cant. :(
I'm going 1080/60/HDR.
No way I'm losing HDR for anything, even if it isn't the best implementation.
According to my sources it 12pm GMT according to Frontier (it being a UK company)
I'm not yet sure if I want to give RD2 another go. I never finished the game on PS4, mostly due to the slow pacing and sluggish controls. Playing it on PC with higher framerates will probably alleviate a lot of the controll issues, but I don't think it's worth giving it a try at full price. I will probably wait for a sale with significantly reduced price sometime in the distant future. :p
PSA for everyone: Log into Red Dead Online even if you're not planning on playing it. Rockstar gave us so much money and gold bars to compensate for the server issues. I just created a character when it launched and logged in only when I hear they're giving a compensation, and by the time the big update hit, I had 60+ gold bars.
Yes
Money, I figure.
My only guess this that the character transfer for GTA V was designed for transferring characters to the current generation of platforms. PS3->PS4 and 360->XB1 or any previous gen console to PC.
Don't get me wrong.... I think it sucks too. At least its way more easier to level and make money in Red Dead Online now compared to when it originally released on consoles.
IIRC, because hackers exploited the transfer feature and Rockstar had to disable it for GTA V.
Yeah, I'm with you.
Guess I should be happy as I'd be dangerously close to splurging money away and double dipping if there were character transfers or better yet cross-save.
But now after putting a stupid amount of hours into the online since it got the roles and is actually fun, I just can't justify starting all over.
Though down the line, when there isn't a metric ton of other interesting games out, I'll be sure to dip back in for a replay of the story at least.
I could be wrong here but I seem to remember for GTA Online, we could only have one platform per profile?
If that's correct, do we know if it'll be the same for RDR2, considering they aren't allowing transfers? Or can I have separate Xbox and PC online characters?

Red Dead Redemption 2: NVIDIA’s Recommended GPUs For 60+ FPS Gameplay
We’ve run the numbers on Red Dead Redemption 2: GeForce RTX GPUs deliver high-quality experiences at 60 FPS in Rockstar’s eagerly anticipated game, and the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is the only card capable of running at 4K.

Any word on whether the game will have a built in slider for lowering the rendering resolution but keeping the HUD at native res? I've been having problems with the Nvidia integer scaling option, it never seems to actually scale at all and I just get black borders around the game when I set the resolution to anything lower than the display's full native resolution
The nvidia article on RDR2 peformance refers to a performance intensive in game benchmark - lol I dont like the sound of that. Looks like even RTX 2080 Ti needs a mix of high and medium settings to lock 4K60. must be all them damn tree shadows and cactus trees with spines \o/

I got AC Oddysey at 4k 60fps (except caves) at 80% resolution with nearly everything else maxed out.
Hopefully RDR also has a silder.
With a 1080ti/8700k combo.
I heard it will have a checkerboard rendering option so maybe you can choose the base resolution at least for that.
DO NOT SCROLL TOO MUCH DOWN ON THAT NVIDIA PERFORMANCE ARTICLE
Some fucking asshole just spoiled the ending in the comments, FUCK

I'm not sure what you mean... Are you talking about Social Club profile?
To me its just a case of Nvidia or making it look like the game is only playable on a 20 series card. RDR2 runs on an Xbox one at 1080p 30 and looks great. Unless we have Ubisoft or nier automata levels of unoptimization, the game should run at 1080 60 with a 970 at least
Oh cool, I accidentally scrolled down to the comments on the Nvidia's page and of course some fuckface had to drop a major Arthur related spoiler.
Managed to avoid shit for a year until that, cool. Thanks Nvidia for having comments open.

Oh god I was just about to look through it, that's so frustrating! Thanks for the warning :(
Possibly yes, I can't remember fully but I do seem to remember getting a message saying I could only log in on one platform (possibly the profile as you say) and I'd have to choose if I wanted to make the Xbox my main platform or not.
The vanilla X1 version runs at 864p, and has frequent drops to 24-25 fps, especially in Saint Denis.
I reckon a 970 will hit 60 fps at 1080p, but it will require some tweaking, setting certain settings to medium.
I voted 'No,' but I wish there was a "No, for now."
If Rockstar lets you sync your online character, then I'd probably get this for Stadia when it launches. The allure of being able to launch RD Online while I'm at work for ... 20mins, or on my phone at night before going to bed for 30 mins, is great. But only if there's a character sync... I'll still primarily play this on Xbox One X.

Can't believe I went an entire year without having anything spoiled and it happens literally less than a day to the PC release, christ. Oh well, still excited to finally get to play it!
Yeah, me too, feels great.
Like, not surprising since I expected it due to obvious reasons but the how is what kind of pissed me off.
Do you guys think a 1080 Ti will hit 1440p at a constant 60fps? I'm also running a Ryzen 9 3900x with 32gb ram.
User Banned (5 Days): Inappropriate commentary
It ain't entirely true what that own father rape victim wrote, there's a lot more that happens.
I'm sure you'll be good. 2080 Ti seems to be calable for 4K60, so a 1080Ti will fare even better at 1440p.
Just keep in mind this is a super scalable engine so you may need to play around with sliders to get things right.
I've got a 2070 Super (roughly equivalent performance to the 1080Ti), but I'll be targetting 100fps at 1080p, so I'm probably looking at a similar performance target.
Given those Nvidia recommendations looking forward to seeing what the actual performance will be like. Seems like 4k/30 is more the target me, or 60 at a lower resolution. Although I imagine this will be quite demanding on the highest/ultra settings I do always wonder considering the source if these are in some ways just a last minute attempt to frighten people to go out and buy a new graphics cards before the game is out tomorrow.
That is what I had figured since even GTA V on the PC at the time was scalable.
I'd love to go 4K on this but if I can't hit 60 FPS, 1440p is always good too.
100fps at 1080p should be good, at lease everything will run smooth.
Debating if I should buy the Steam version in December or get this one. Still working on a few games so waiting another month won't be an issue.
You don't need to make multiple Social Club profiles. You just need one. Your separate characters will stay on their own platforms. In Social Club there is a drop down menu where you can select which platform stats you want listed. PSN, Xbox, and PC. All your Online characters and save data are tied to those platforms separately.
Does that make sense? In short, you don't need to do anything if you already have a Social Club account. It keeps the platform data and stats separate.
