I love CS1, but I've always thought that the graphics in it look a bit weird. I've played it on several computers, but I always find it to look too bright, and almost like it renders everything at the wrong resolution. Blurry graphics, blurry UI elements. I've never managed to find what graphics settings mitigate this issue.
What you said, dpad works fine while analog has 8 direction movement and delayed inputs
it renders at 720p everywhere, wtf? 1080p is literally an upscale on all platforms
Exactly. Also need to be clarified that MGS2 still has issues with UI when rendering at 1080p and above, so it's not fixed yet
I think I saw on GitHub that someone has identified that the UI and various effects render separately from the game, so finding them and changing them to match the new rendering resolution might resolve that issue with MGS2.
I WAS GOING TO TAG YOU ABOUT THIS hahaha awesomeeee
Unfortunately, the various visual issues (very slow texture loading, horrible AA, random stutters, flickering shadows, etc.) make it ugly, but whenever it renders right, it can actually look very pretty!
With further testing it's worse than it first appeared to me but there is some hope even my shitty system could run it in the future. Also medium settings look like a bizarre abstract painting.
Given it's a city simulator, I'd wager people having problems on high-end GPUs are actually CPU bound.
That's the thing. I saw video of it with Afterburner (or something like it on) and it wasn't CPU bound. No core of the CPU was even above 20%, most below 5%. Instead the GPU was constantly above 90%, and GPUbusy (the amount of time that is spend by the GPU to produce the next frame) made up around 80% of the overall frametime. So it was SUPER GPU bound, and that was on a 4090. I have no idea what that game is doing, running a cryptominer in the GPU?
From the more detailed and reasonable feedback on the sub megathread, it sounds like there is something really borked with their graphics optimization. Depth of Field is on by default (in a city builder? Why?) and for most people it alone eats 10-30 FPS. Some settings clearly don't change anything visually or with utilization. Even at stable FPS a lot of people are running into textures not loading, and not-high textures just looking wrong.
So it's a 1-to-1 remake, as expected. Kinda disappointing since a reimagining would've been more interesting but I guess this significantly reduces the chances of them fucking it up completely.
It was completely obvious from the first gameplay trailer that it's a 1:1 remake and I'm glad they aren't messing with it.
I thought this was the first gameplay trailer? All I had seen before were environment screenshots. And yeah it seemed likely to be 1:1 since they're re-using the original's audio but now it's basically confirmed.
Local supermarkets have had Christmas Chocolates in since the end of July by me.
I'm not sure but it showed off several areas of the game and they were identical. Exact same layouts, etc, so there was never any doubt in my mind that it would be a 1:1 remake. I'm glad they're not messing with it.
It looks nice and detailed, sure. But why is everything so bright? We're supposed to be deep in the jungle!
Actually they fixed a bunch of visual glitches from the originals so, there's work done inside
Movement, stealth, and world design looks quite close to original.
Yup. Not gonna lie I ended up bruteforcing a few of the Chinese topmen in particular.
It took them 5 years but they finally money hatted something with actual quality
