Support NeoGAF

[FunkyLounge]

I wonder how much of the hardware TressFx eats up. My guess is A LOT.

60fps would be much better that flashy hair.

 

[Levyne]

Are any of the enhancements (if any, other than Lara's face) going to show up on the PC?

I believe they've said "no plans"

 

[Atolm]

It was unrealistic to expect 60fps with TressFX on when beastly PCs struggle with that.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Can't say I'm not itching to blow $60 on this. Stop me GAF. Stop me!

 

[GloveSlap]

Not to start any console war stuff, but if the XbOne can run this at 1080p/30 shouldn't the PS4 be able to it hit 60 fps? At least 45 fps.

 

[Ogimachi]

Definitive remains on PC, then.

 

[EL CUCO]

But from comments made to Eurogamer last night by Tomb Raider executive producer Scot Amos, it wasn't until much later in the year that the game broke even.


"By the end of last year - Tomb Raider is in the black," Amos revealed. "We've crossed the line of profitability for the last-gen and PC versions."

So PS4/Xone version is the definitve profitable edition.

 

[demosthenes]

And they say it's better than PC on Ultra? :lol

Good for PS4/Bone buyers though.

 

[loganclaws]

Some games need 60 FPS to play well. This isn't one of them. Worth it for the graphical upgrades, IMO.

Oh boy...

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Frame rate numbers usually don't bother me, but at the price they're charging....this is a major fumble.

 

[RedAssedApe]

All these snarky comments. Don't see how its a fail. Is it simply the price point upsetting people? I didn't see this much backlash for other cross-platform titles...

Example, don't think anyone really complained about how Ass4 ran. Felt smooth to me.

 

[Ysiadmihi]

Surely nobody in here actually thought the game was going to be 60fps with TressFX?

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

All these snarky comments. Don't see how its a fail. Is it simply the price point upsetting people? I didn't see this much backlash for other cross-platform titles...

To me, ya, it's the price point that is way off...

Should be $40 imo, I would buy it for that, and that is what I am going to do, wait until it drops to $40 on some sale a month from release.

 

[oSoLucky]

Not to start any console war stuff, but if the XbOne can run this at 1080p/30 shouldn't the PS4 be able to it hit 60 fps? At least 45 fps.

That's what I've been wondering myself. I wouldn't be surprised if it's more like the PS4 is stable 30 while the XB1 experiences some drops and maybe some minor graphical downgrades. Nearly all footage has been of PS4 so far(like most games).

 

[pswii60]

Definitive remains on PC, then.

Depends on your PC, really. Definitive definitely isn't on my PC.

 

[jem0208]

As long as it's solid, 30 is fine by me.

 

[Finaika]

Isn't the PS4 more than capable to handle this game on 60fps?

 

[Levyne]

Isn't the PS4 more than capable to handle this game on 60fps?

With TressFX my 780 couldn't hold 60 fps with all of the other whistles maxed out. It's quite demanding.

 

[RoboPlato]

I wonder how much of the hardware TressFx eats up. My guess is A LOT.

60fps would be much better that flashy hair.

I'm willing to bet that TressFX is the only reason it isn't 60, at least on PS4.

 

[CaptainTiptop]

Isn't the PS4 more than capable to handle this game on 60fps?

Probably dat TressFX that's holding it back.

 

[silver.tongue]

Will buy it at $40. Not $60.

 

[swcpig]

Frame rate numbers usually don't bother me, but at the price they're charging....this is a major fumble.

Why is it? I didn't buy it on any other platforms so it's "new to me"... Why would they sell it for 40 bucks except to lure double dippers - which clearly isn't what they are targeting... they are targeting early adopters on platforms that have very little competition to gain some extra cheese.

This isn't a 5 year old game getting some window dressing - there are plenty of people who didn't buy this the first time through.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Isn't the PS4 more than capable to handle this game on 60fps?

Not with all the extra stuff is my guess. At least not a locked 60, and I HATE variable frame rates. This is good news to me.

 

[IrgendwasmitRot]

At least Lara has a better face.

 

[Yoshichan]

Fml

Interest all the way down

 

[kaskade]

I really wish it launched for 40 bucks. Framerate doesn't really bother me much as long as it doesn't drop. I'll probably get it when the price goes down.

 

[RubberJohnny]

What peasantry.

 

[Coolbgdog12]

The feel of

Spoiler

30fps

 

[Ysiadmihi]

I'm willing to bet that TressFX is the only reason it isn't 60, at least on PS4.

I wonder if they couldn't achieve framerate parity at 60 with both systems and then just said fuck it and threw TressFX in there and shot for 30 instead.

 

[Radec]

Not so definitive after all.

 

[AlucardGV]

didn't bought it on ps3 so i may drop a 30 € for the ps4 version. maybe.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

It's more like DosFX right?

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

Then my question is; could the PS4 version be 60fps then? Why have they just settled on parity between the platforms.

TressFX is a resource hog. Surprised the PS4 and Xbox One are running it at 1080p30 with it enabled.

 

[Finaika]

With TressFX my 780 couldn't hold 60 fps with all of the other whistles maxed out. It's quite demanding.

TressFX is an AMD tech right? So one should expect it to run better on the next gen consoles...

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Duhfinitive Edition

 

[see5harp]

I probably wouldn't mind if I hadn't already played the game already but $60 is a bit too steep for better textures and resolution.

 

[Phil4000]

Well that's not definitive.

.

 

[Byronic Hero]

Should be a buck per frame. $60 is just a bit too much.

Spoiler

I'll still probably buy it when I get my Ps4 though.

 

[Zimbardo]

TressFX is an AMD tech right? So one should expect it to run better on the next gen consoles...

so ps4 should run it better than a gtx 780 right?

 

[Alaskanbullworm]

I'll just wait until the frames match the price

 

[Nibel]

What

 

[Coolbgdog12]

No but seriously tressfx is a hog. I can play Tomb Raider on my PC on Ultra at 1440P downsampled to 1080P with tressfx off. Turning it on halves my fps to 30, the definitive framerate.

This is on a fx 4100 with a 2gb 7870 and 8GB DDR3 RAM.

 

[Rei no Otaku]

Fine with me. I didn't expect it to hit 60 and as long as it's locked at 30 I'm still looking forward to it.

 

[TGO]

Weird how my 3 year old pc runs this game at 60 or close to it but it only cost me $5. I don't care that this is being made but it should be about $30

No it doesn't, your 3 year old PC runs the current gen version at 60fps or close to it with limited psychics on characters and the world around them, lower poly models, lower particle effects, last gen lightning effects no character subsurface shattering and a buggy TressFX
That's what every PC owner of the original TR2013 is running regardless of framerate and resolution and every time someone mentions they are running this game on PC @60fps and it's the definitive edition when they don't even have this version of the game they just sound stupid.
And on that note I didn't expect TR of all games to be 60fps, but then again only PC gamers expect every game to be 60fps even if it doesn't need or suit it.

 

[Tsundere]

Native 1080p?

No holding back?

 

[Triggerhappytel]

By the time I get around to buying a PS4 this will probably be about £15 anyway, which is the sort of price I would be happy paying.

 

[Dolor]

Wow, kind of can't believe how underpowered the new consoles are.

 

[Z3M0G]

It was unrealistic to expect 60fps with TressFX on when beastly PCs struggle with that.

Exactly... come on people. Be thankful for the 1080p.

I'm personally very happy with this. But my PC can't touch this game compared to that anyways.

 

[Not Spaceghost]

Wow, kind of can't believe how underpowered the new consoles are.

Honestly I think it's more likely developers just do not prioritize 60 fps at all.

 

[esterk]

I'll just get Rayman Legends at $40. Thanks though.
