will be picking up today-but not popping cellophane until next week. UEE addiction

 

[phant0m]

I've never played a Metro game but am interested.

If I had to pick one game to pick up on PS4, which should I get?

You can't pick just one. On PS4 you get both games, 1 disc, $50.

Do it.

 

[Stratosphere]

Aww yeah, UPS just dropped off my PS4 copy! Now I've read theres no day 1 patch on PS4 yet? Could this come with the Tuesday update? I'm wondering if I should wait.

Can't he if he buys the game digitally?

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Nice, thanks.

That's why I'm not doing Ranger mode first. Will do a full survival Ranger run later on.

It's been fine aside from that one moment. Pretty much every action is genre standard so it's not like I'm getting lost every 2 minutes. Makes the firefights really tense as well because it takes effort to know how much ammo you have left.

 

[Gurish]

Well is it up on US store?

you buy them separately digitally for $25 each

For those who bought Metro Redux on PC, how has your experience been so far? I have it downloading currently while I'm away from home.

I had a rough I'm before it even started. It was stuttering, booted me to desktop and almost completely froze up on me before I even got to the main menu. I only played like 5 minutes because I had to go to class, but it ran smooth during actual gameplay.

I played a few hours of it last night, and I've had zero problems. Game still looks impressive. And the addition of the Metro Last Light stealth system is VERY welcomed, I think I'm really going to finally enjoy this game.

The game doesn't start. So, quite awful ... Disappointing.

What was particular about the stealth system in LL that differed from original 2033?

 

[phant0m]

Ah ok, didn't realize they were selling them separate digitally on the PS4.

I beat both original versions on PC, I can't wait to start Ranger mode tonight from my couch.

Finaly! Thanks for the update.

Runs a lot better than the original for me: i7 4770k, 32 GB RAM, GTX Titan. 3440x1440 res.

However, I'm disappointed at the lack of AA options, only has 0.5 SSAA (makes the IQ blurry) and 2xSSAA (incredibly demanding).,

 

[Codiox]

Guys, impressions of the ps4 version plz.. Have to wait till Thursday for my copy :-(

 

[Chance Hale]

Man, the main menu of Metro 2033 is taunting me. Shows Artyom holding the knife like you used to be able to do ;-;

Edit: Uhhhhh, my save from last night is gone. Anyone else had their progress erased? What the hell?

 

[icespide]

ah UPS delivered my PS4 copy! I've got one more meeting and then I'm fucking out of here

Yep, I'm on PC and I randomly got a 1.2GB update, don't know what caused that, and then my save was gone.

I'm playing 2033 for the first time and I'm loving it. This is my type of game. Graphics are outstanding

After playing about 2 hours of 2033 Redux on PC I can safely say it's sooo much better than vanilla 2033 and that's coming from someone who is a massive fan of the original.

I prefer all the mechanics they brought over from Last Light. It dramatically improves the playability of it.

The original also ran really shitty on my system, drops from 60 to 20 to 80 etc. It was really unstable but 2033 Redux is running smooth as butter around 70fps on High at 1080p. It's pretty gorgeous.

I really like the added little sections too. Like an extra door here or there. Really impressed so far.

Found this on steam:
Old - Documents > 4A Games > Metro Redux > 110000103c52b5f
New - Documents > 4A Games > Metro 2033 > 110000103c52b5f

Just copy the old folder into the Metro 2033 folder. Why they chose to do that who knows.

1.2 GB patch made the PC version, into the PC version apparently or soemthing.

Nice! Are the graphics next Gen or just upscaled ports?

 

[DJSebolski]

So I heard Metro Redux was developed for PS4 and ported to PC & X1. Is that true?

 

[Chance Hale]

SNIP

OMG OMG OMG

I always believed in you 4A!

What, to you, qualifies as "next gen graphics" ? Serious question. Not mocking.

 

[Dictator93]

The games were next gen when they came out in term sof many graphical features on the PC SKU. So much so that the nextgen versions still pale to the PC version.

 

[belmonkey]

I feel like they could have upgraded more textures. There's still a bunch of ugly textures scattered around (like textures inside sinks), and it seems to barely go over 1GB VRAM at 1080p very high settings.

 

[Kezen]

4A Games are reading Neogaf, this is the only explanation.

Amazing.

 

[Codiox]

I played thief on the ps4 and that was definitely not next Gen.
Killzone shadow fall was next Gen though.

Only in terms of graphics of course.

Eficient texture streaming would do that. Most of the game is confined to rather small space, that and their texture streaming should lead to pretty low VRAM usage.

PS4 version am cry ;_;

 

[Chance Hale]

Patch seems to have reset my Ranger Hardcore playthrough, there are now icons on the screen which is weird. Probably going to have to restart.

Edit: Yeah, just picked up 60 rounds so something is up. Will have to restart but it's worth it for that patch!

 

[Stormus]

If the graphics, for PS4, are on par with the likes of TR: Definitive Edition & Second Son, I'll be very impressed.

[Dave_6]

Nice! Glad I went ahead and preordered the PC versions.

 

[misho8723]

Well that's very nice from 4A Games.. now we only need more graphical settings to play with and a FOV slider right in the game options menu

 

[Deadbeat]

Did they fix ranger so it's like original 2033 or is it still half assed like last light?

 

[belmonkey]

Eficient texture streaming would do that. Most of the game is confined to rather small space, that and their texture streaming should lead to pretty low VRAM usage.

Does that have anything to do with why the game tends to use a lot of system RAM?

Going to gamestop now to pick up my copy!

 

[Cudder]

So I'm in the Chapter called Khan, and right at the beginning there's a part that I can't seem to get past. In the train with the boy who yells "Mom!". I looked up a video on youtube and you're supposed to just walk straight through the train car, but in the PS4 version there is a whole bunch of spiderwebs that don't allow you to progress. Absolutely no where to go. I've tried reloading my checkpoint as well as the chapter. Are the developers aware of this?

 

[IcyRhythms]

When did this 1.2GB patch release? I've yet to receive such an update.

 

[Mechazawa]

Holy shit at those changes. I'm not sure I'm feeling how blown out that lighting is, but I'll have to restart and play the intro again regardless.

I think you can burn them with your lighter. No idea what the key/button is though lol.

I haven't played the game yet, so I may be wrong, but aren't you supposed to burn away the webs with your lighter?

Edit: beaten.
