NVIDIA releases DOOM PC footage of the game running w/ the Vulkan API - 1080p@60fps
- Thread starter Gattsu25
- Start date
I would think so. At this point I don't see much point in even posting a video like that since you won't need a top end card to run 1080p @ 60 fps. Color me impressed when you get 4K @ 60 fps.
That said, the game looks a lot better nowadays. I'm also in the "waiting for impressions" club for now. Weapons seem nice and beefy, especially that dual barreled shotgun was the best gun in Doom 2 so glad to see it's back.

Id certainly know how to optimise their code. That's at least one legacy that Carmack left the team when he left.

Plays more like Quake 3 though, original Doom was not THAT fast =)
Well it helps when Tiago Sousa is one of the lead programmers on your team as well. Not that I doubt the technical abilities of the whole team.
Don't see why not, hopefully id will let you use the console commands if you want to play the whole game from the start at super fast speed.
You could probably tweet Tiago and ask him directly as he seems quite responsive to folks, I don't have twitter so I can't do it myself.

Tiago has done a great job, but John really laid down the framework for the future, and is a big proponent of static analysis and const correctness, which make frameworks stable and behaviour of code predictable. Standing on the shoulders of giants, of which Tiago is one himself, not to lessen his contributions.

Licorice-flavoured booze?
I'm a bit confused, so the thread title is stating the video res and fps or the in game-res and fps?
I would of thought the Titan X got a lot higher FPS with Vulkan API.

Well, if you are recording a video for youtube, you want the encode to match the fps lock. So locking @ 60 makes sense.
It probably goes higher than 60 on those settings in the video. I am curious about "nightmare utlra" and what that entails...

Its a realy powerfull graphicscard but why does he jump around like an ape?
One of he most basic quake era/ unreal shooter strategies, makes your movement unpredictable and harder to get hit.
Because enemies are shooting instead of hiding behind boxes.
I doubt I can get this any time this year. My PC gfx just isn't up for it and It would be a shame to get it on PS4 unless there was a keyboard/mouse option and it was as fast.
This is how you play old skool ID games.. You run/jump like a mad thing while still trying to kill stuff.

Okay now this is the kind of footage they should be showing us, it actually looks cool as hell.

And i still dont know if i'll buy it on launch! Even though this footage looks awesome, i just started playing Stellaris and i hardly have moment for this time stealer.

That looks like the shit. Can't wait to jump around like that.

Tempted to pick it up. What was 970 performance like on the beta?

That actually looks pretty darn good now.

Has there been any hints as to when Vulkan is gonna be patched in?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Looks lovely. Except for the QTE melee kills, which are bafflingly awful in how they stall the momentum and flow of play for a repetitious, scripted animation kill. If it's locked to the chainsaw I can see myself never using it. That being said, watching mouse + keyboard play is leagues away from a pad and really sells the game.
This kid of stuff should have been shown earlier, in my opinion.

Oh! So I guess this is what Mick was doing instead of Season 3 of KI? I'm definitely not worried about the soundtrack then, it is in good hands.
This was max settings though.

This is exactly how it played for me on PC during the Beta. Cranking up that FOV, sensitivity and bunny-hopping around everywhere is all it takes to play like this.
Warning: The Console version plays at half this speed, at best.

even so, i expect my Nano can do that, let alone the latest and greatest Nvidia card
The 1080 can run it at more than 60fps at 1080p. Uncapped it hovers around 110fps.
The Titan X can do the job at 60fps but we don't know what happens when the framerate uncapped.
I just find it a bit odd to come out and say, look our newest card thats designed to blow everything away can do 1080p60, it should be a given surely.
No.
Max settings can always tax new cards, even at 1080p.
If you think a 1080 should crush everything at 1080p you are ignoring context and how demanding 60fps with max settings can be.
How much of a performance boost are we talking here?
And how would one go about enableing Vulkan? Also is it already going to be useable when the game comes out in a few hours?
I guess if a GTX1080 can achieve that high of a framerate then my old ass GTX780 should atleast manage somewhere around 60.

Wow. M/kb footage vs pad footage makes such a difference.

Vulkan is supposed to be patched in quickly after launch.
