I never said anything about enabling ubersampling. Don't put words in my mouth here, man. It ran not well on modest settings.

......... this (if correct) could be quite lame.
.... aka, time for an upgrade (from a 7970 3Gb Vapor-X/i7 3770k)

Nothing 'next gen' about this.
Christ, that's pushing Twilight Princess levels of terrible bloom.
It depends really. A single GPU, perhaps not (but they are rather powerful; in terms of raw shader processing capabilities, 780s and 290s are roughly 3x the PS4's GPU, 4 - 4.5x the Xbox One's). SLI or Crossfire a couple of those monsters and, well, yeah... a full generation, in raw shader processing that is.
Good thing is, you could easily deactivate it in the options.
10 months from release...how can they even determine this so early? lol...it is reaching hard for sensationalism though..i give them props on that lol

I think we are fooling ourselves think CD Projekt Red knows how to make a decent next gen port after the Xbox One comments
If the PS4/X1 are minimum that would mean about only 20% of steam users could run the game http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/
Yeah, there's no denying Crysis is unoptimised. Many cited the tech as the reason the game was very demanding but as future GPU generations came and went the truth became abundantly clear.

Exactly what I was thinking. The 360 version was an excellent port.

Which made the game look even worse as lighting didn't project properly...
Nasty, burn it with fire. That looks so bad.Nothing 'next gen' about this.

While I don't doubt that the game is going to require beefy hardware to run properly, I have zero confidence in this rumor.
The fact that a random Russian site happens to have exclusive insight about the performance of a game, which is coming out in 2015, seems like bullshit.

That definitely helped things. In many places things still looked way overexposed (not sure what the word is I should use) though.
It is a very unflattering screenshot, The Witcher 2 looks great in many areas. But the screens and footage we have seen of The Witcher 3 also looks so much better.
Since they are Eastern European developers, I thought it made a bit more sense that a Russian site would have info about it, not that I trust the news.
Pretty much, the character models are very detailed and the art direction is great. I was seriously impressed back when I played it. I just can't fanthom calling that game ulgy, what the hell.

How did TW2 look on 360 ? Genuinely curious as I couldnot find videos accurately showing what it looks like.
What the fuck is this shit? Seriously one of the worst posts I have read on GAF.

The witcher 2 has hideous sharpening hdr and bloom. Only 25%~ of steam users are at or above console level gpus, therefor game is unoptimized.Wow such shit post amirite?
They did a good job on the port but it does look pretty different in places even at 720p

But they aren't the source, as I wrote earlier. And it doesn't make more sense anyway. Why would it?

My dog was murdered by a 3.5mm audio port and I will not rest until the standard is dead
I hope it does look poor on consoles. PC should make no compromises just to run the game on consoles. Don't compromise. Target the highest end hardware possible, please. PC gaming suffered the last few years due to targeting old, near decade old consoles.

One of the best looking games on the system and withouth framerate issues to speak about afair.

What.
Yes. The bolded is even worse. I hope you're kidding.
Don't you think you are contradicting yourself in the process of hoping that only your platform of choice is not compromised?
awesome.Good to hear that.

Selective shots can be argued both ways
Game is mediocre at best, selective shots downsampled and ubersampled look good in certain areas but once in an area where animations hdr and sharpening are in effect it looks bad

That's why you don't run a company. A game that's minimum requirements is a 7850~ is unoptimized.

Ha, I just hit up GOG and started downloading the game 10 minutes ago.
I've been looking for an excuse to go back and finish it, but I've been too lazy/busy until now.
Well... shit.
At least they're fighting to keep 1080p though.
Looks good but it still looks like a last gen game.Here's a screenshot of The Witcher 2 that doesn't look like shit on purpose.
Hey dont work hard to go 1080p give me some extra effects please

Looks like? From what little we know about DX12 it is supposed to better balance the workload between GPU and CPU. Might just reduce CPU bottlenecks like Mantle did. Haven't heard anything about graphical increases.
Besides that, it has only been announced for a very short time, so would not have been implemented yet, you can't tell anything about it looking at these numbers and according to Microsoft the first games that would utilize the tech would only appear in Holiday 2015, so the answer is no.
