Upcoming Battlefield 5 with RTX graphics!
It doesn't look much better? Os that based on actual game time from personal experience or a YouTube video.. that's been compressed and what not.. yeah exactly. People said exactly the same when 144hz panels came out "you'll need 4 GPUs to power that. Pointless blah blah I've seen YouTube videos and it's not noticeable" Now most people apparently would rather die than play at anything less than 144fps as it's just so choppy otherwise.. despite 20 years of 3d gaming before hand without it..
You can spot changes in low versus high settings by watching YouTube videos, but using a monocular loupe helps you see the difference clearly when checking RTX on and off. This means the loupe lets you compare the display quality directly, making it easier to notice improvements or differences.
Most of this can be easily manipulated. V2 will shine. V1 falls short.
He guy in the video mentioned Origin can lock out your games after hardware changes. Yeah, they’re making a mess. I’m a ray-tracing enthusiast just for 3D animation, but I don’t think BFV is ideal for showcasing it. The standout example was Metro, which really enhances visuals both inside and outside. It’s possible that the ray tracing cost is too high, so it only shows up in very few places of BFV, resulting in almost no noticeable differences.
Well this hinges on how the developers fine-tuned the engine. I watched a clip about the Metro update where they mentioned they could skip certain details for RTX. Things like grass, trees, and other alpha textures aren't processed with RTX. I’m not sure what BFV is handling though—it seems focused more on reflective surfaces like water and glass. Would need real comparison shots since that video looked pretty poor. Still, it’s clear BFV isn’t ideal for that kind of rendering. I also saw another video discussing optimizations; they explained that many objects were treated as separate, making calculations harder. They mentioned grouping them together, but possibly just skipping non-metallic and glossy items like tiles to improve performance.
Agreed. Many YT reviewers shared this opinion. Hardware Unboxed appreciated their Patreons for letting them use their EA accounts, but the download restriction is quite brief—just 1 to 3 days. That’s not ideal. It’s odd since only reviewers (and trolls) are affected by this. Such a simple EA again.
