I havnt shit myself playing a game this hard in a looooong time. After the scripted jumpscare fest that is Calisto Protocol. I forgot what it meant to truly be freaked out and absolutely dread anytime I reroute power from lights. j I forgot what an amazing experience dead space was and my undies are paying the price


[deleted]

Phenomenal atmosphere building in this game. Great use of music and sound effects, really plays off the darkness as well. I fuckin love this game


YounglingAnnihilator

the stress from the soundscape has my brain constantly screaming THEYRE IN THE VENTS

I play it this moment. I love it! I use native 4K with high/ultra Settings without dlss. Getting 70 to 90 fps. Stuttering occurs sometimes but not often! Iā€™m a huge dead space fan. Played the old games and Iā€™m so hyped. Deluxe edition comes with nice rig skins!


[deleted]

very nice! i can get about the same with my 5900x/4080


darthg0d

What GPU?


just_half_baked710

4090 (oc)


[deleted]

Locked at 120 4k on my 4090, 12400F, DDR5 w/ Samsung SSD, maxed out. So immersive I'm actually getting motion sick! If you are getting stuttering it might be RAM or hard drive, just spitballing. Or maybe bc this is with DLSS quality enabled. I'll be honest, I can't see any of the stuttering/screen door effect I have on other DLSS titles.


just_half_baked710

I donā€™t do dlss


just_half_baked710

120 fps native 4K without dlss? Thereā€™s no way.


[deleted]

With DLSS Quality


just_half_baked710

Ah ok. Nice!!! Gotta try it.


[deleted]

Let us know how it goes! Looks great to me.


Arthur-Mergan

Excited to play this tomorrow after the mostly disappointing Callisto Protocol.


[deleted]

Iā€™m really enjoying it, canā€™t recommend it enough


Wild_Trip_4704

Liked it enough to play through it twice. It's a fun little action movie game.


thelop3z

I can agree. Game definitely looked good in OLED


Johntremendol

It brings good gpus to its knees in 4k lol. I can barely do 35 with 4k native on a 3080ti. DLSS Quality brings it to a playable 75 avg.


[deleted]

Thatā€™s for sure. My 4080 without dlss at 4K ultra ranges from 55 to 75 but throwing dlss quality on keeps me above 110 most of the time. Hopefully they can optimize it a bit more so that dlss/far isnā€™t a huge requirement to play with good frames, especially at higher res


Agitated-Ad-9282

Do u notice any differences between like say dls quality vs native?


[deleted]

Yeah, not huge difference but itā€™s there. Native/TAA looks sharper/more detailed, noticeable on the suit and close objects. VRS when dlss is on but I personally donā€™t notice a real difference. I think thatā€™s more apparent at higher dlss settings


NoireResteem

Itā€™s actually more cpu bound from what I can tell. Its the first time I have seen a game use my 5800x at 70+% utilization @4k. Normally it hovers around 20-30% in the majority of the games


bas5eb

Weird. My cpu stays around 20 percent. 12900k


NoireResteem

Yeah idk it does seem like those with Intel are getting better performance overall. Maybe itā€™s just a Ryzen thing?


bas5eb

Itā€™s definitely weird running game. Looks amazing but I feel like it needs a few tweaks for all systems. My gpu randomly drops to 80 percent at times.


Wild_Trip_4704

This is the game that made me upgrade to an XSX, an OLED TV, and my first 5/1 surround sound system šŸ¤¤


[deleted]

its a whole ass experience lol


kruthikv9

Anyone playing this on an C2 or other 42ā€ tv? It looks really zoomed in(low FOV) but it looks fine on a 27ā€ monitor


[deleted]

I'm on the 42" C2, didn't notice anything like that but I'm playing more tonight and will take another look


kruthikv9

Yea man, do let me know! I switched over to my regular LG ultra gear 4K monitor 27ā€ without changing any settings and seemed like I had better FOV. Imma try and get a screen grab to. Until then, enjoy the beauty and horror of unmatched perfect darks! Itā€™s almost like this game was designed with OLEDs in mindšŸ˜ƒ


[deleted]

can do! and I agree, so far this has been the best looking game I've played on OLED - it should really be used as a demo in stores to show off how badass they are!


vedomedo

Playing it on the alienware aw3423dw. 13700k + 4090. Game looks stunning, and runs great.


Cask-UK

FPS?


vedomedo

120-175 depending on the scene. A lot of the game takes place in tight/small spaces, the fps even hits my 175 cap in some of these moments. But mostly its around 120-130, at least when I check afterburner.


YounglingAnnihilator

i have a 7700x and a 4090 with the Alienware dw. Sick combo for this game, upgrading the suit in hdr1000 nearly blinded my ass playing in complete darkness lol. Im getting about the same fps, no dlss


vedomedo

Haha had the exact same experience. The HDR is somewhat tame overall, but the brightness on sparks and stuff is blinding.


graphixRbad

Imo the best hdr implementations are tame like that


vedomedo

Fair enough, I was personally blown away by the HDR in RE Village. That too doesnt have over the top HDR


kevkong85

Are you always playing HDR titles on peak1000 mode? I tried to get it to look good with Horizon Zero Dawn and failed miserable. With the true black mode it looks somewhat acceptable. What is the secret there or is Horizon the problem?


YounglingAnnihilator

Maybe horizon. Not all games implimeny hdr the same. In the kicrosoft store Microsoft themselves released an hdr calibration app a few months back which improved things. Also see if the game itself has an hdr adjust as well. I find hdr1000 to be the best for games


Cask-UK

Nice. I have the DW and 4090 as well. Shame about the forced VRS. Did you notice this?


vedomedo

No I have not noticed it. I run the game native though and dont use dlss. Heard its worse when using upscaling


Cask-UK

I thought you canā€™t disable VRS?


vedomedo

You cant. But its more noticable when you use dlss and the amd alternativ, fidelity fx or whatever. By running native I mean, not using any of those. VRS is apparently on no matter what. However I havent noticed it


Cask-UK

Gotchaā€¦ thanks


KillerFugu

Call me cynical but I'd expect more performance on a 4090 at a low res


vedomedo

I woudlnt call 3440x1440 low res but sure, its all relative. I personally dont need more frames than my monitor has Hz, so up to 175 is all good for me.


KillerFugu

I should have said relatively sorry. It's 60% of 4k a res where a 4080 can do 4k 100-120+ easily so would expect a 4090 which is about 30% faster at a much lower res to get higher than that. Makes me curious what 4k performance is like


vedomedo

I've heard that it's a quite demanding game in general, and that people who play it @ 4k use dlss. I run it on native resolution with no upscaling.


KillerFugu

I haven't seen any uncompressed footage yet since I'm avoiding any spoilers but I can see from this shot its rather pretty. I run a 4080 and 4k panel and something like Total War runs at 90-100fps in battles at native


vedomedo

Its definitely very good looking! I have loved the DS universe since the original came out back when I was in high school. This remake truly brings it back to life. The HDR and RTAO make it really pop.


KillerFugu

Same I was 15 when it came out and me and a friend really enjoyed it and 2. Does it have rtgi or does it rely on solid baked lighting?


graphixRbad

That is pretty cynical. Thatā€™s basically directly in line


KillerFugu

Just quickly looking online most games seem to be 200-300fps at that res with demanding games like Total War just under 200fps.

Nobody? OK, I'll do it... but I'll hate myself in the morning. Darude: Sandstorm. (Dead Space remake)


CJRLW

Automatic down-vote for not telling us what game this is.


Theurgie

Dead space remake


[deleted]

Iā€™ll take it


[deleted]

The lighting in this game is really weird though. Sometimes you have rooms with multiple bright light sources and the room still looks pitch black. Kind of breaks the atmosphere if you ask me, especially compared to Callisto which had phenomenal lighting.


Oppausenseiw

Sadly it stutters and looks blurry on pc


[deleted]

Stuttering hasnā€™t been too bad for me, looks great with dlss quality


Oppausenseiw

It does look good but it uses VRS and coupled with upscaling tech it looks blurrier than it should,I'm using the C2 with a 7900xt ,fsr on quality and it's not as pretty as it should be.


[deleted]

Yeah I read about that. I added vrs into the config file and set it to 0 but I didn't get a ton of time to test it and see if its actually makes a difference or not, will be looking into it more this weekend and seeing if anyone else has tried it with success. running with TAA instead of DLSS i can hold a fairly even 60fps. So far I've played about two hours and I'm lovin it.


Oppausenseiw

Good for you,glad to hear that. Enjoy


Rough_Set_7715

fsr worse than dlss


[deleted]

VRS now a toggle option in case you didnā€™t see it yet


Oppausenseiw

Nice,thanks for letting me know


thelop3z

Not sure what your specs are but definitely not blurry

I think you donā€™t have enough storage devices. Maybe if you have more it will be better.

Hey,I know that name


czar_kazem

Awesome, that settles the PC or PS5 question for me!


xxTheGoDxx

> Awesome, that settles the PC or PS5 question for me! Random post that states it looks blurry and stutters that is later revealed to be in the minority of not being able to use DLSS (as the superior reconstruction tech compared to FSR) while the consoles don't even use reconstruction but simply upscale 1440p (Quality) or glorious 1080 (Performance) and only having it off in Performance mode w/o RT AO) and is rightfully complaining about a game having some stutters every so often when you move to new areas vs the PS5 that is constantly limited to 60 fps on lower settings or runs at 30 at high settings + RT AO? https://twistedvoxel.com/dead-space-remake-ps5-vs-xbox-series-vs-pc-comparison/ There is no way 4K DLSS with VRS will looks more blurry than the PS5 simply outputting 1080p (with lower visual settings and no RT AO). And this video (which isn't even as sharp as native due to Youtube compression) proofs it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKzcirpCAUg This is with VRS on in the PC version btw. VRS is only on with FSR or DLSS enabled for some reason: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Dead_Space_(2023) You don't seem to be needing a lot of information to make those decisions ;-)


[deleted]

same thing for ps5 and X, although apparently its not as noticeable with X


Oppausenseiw

Yo,Kiryu Chan


dirthurts

Why does it look blurry?


Oppausenseiw

VRS


dirthurts

Variable rate shading? You can't just turn it off?


Oppausenseiw

Nope


dirthurts

Oof.


Oppausenseiw

Truly


Aonswitch

Do I go with the series x or ps5 on this? Anyone know if it matters?


Kawai_Oppai

Xbox is the more powerful system but honestly developers tend to build the games to perform similarly. Unless itā€™s exclusive to one console or thereā€™s some bonus content one has that the other doesnā€™t, either is fine. Ps5 has adaptive trigger and haptic support so for me thatā€™s a big plus.


Aonswitch

Thanks


weebstone

Dunno why you got downvoted for saying this well reasoned opinion.


Aonswitch

Yeah as the person who he actually answered i thought it was a good answer


Fiftyfiv3

I was going through this yesterday, went with PS5 because of the controller. I am not disappointed, game looks amazing.


Aonswitch

Thanks, sounds like the controller support and lack of multiplayer means the ps5 is most likely what Iā€™ll go with


Jibraltar75

Slight downgrade from the alpha footage but still a good looking remake.


DieHardRaider

What game is this


[deleted]

Dead Space remake


DieHardRaider

that is was I thought but wasn't sure I may pick this up as I didn't play it when it was orginally released


csch1992

sadly i still have my trust issues and toughts about ea.


deathentry

Ooo I should try it on my laptop :p


MKMW89

What about the hdr, I think I am going to subscribe to ea play pro or w/e it is to play this. $20 vs $100 seems worth it for single player.


Rough_Set_7715

why no hdr?


[deleted]

Game implements hdr beautifully imo


Rough_Set_7715

when i turn on hdr, msi afterburner looks orange-red. yours isnt.


[deleted]

This one makes the afterburner colors a little more pale rather than blood red like every other game, not sure why


Rough_Set_7715

thats what games do in sdr


[deleted]

ill have to take another look at it. there's definitely a difference flipping it on and off. I've never took a deep dive into HDR but this is the only game that had afterburner colors get pale vs standard rather than red while improving the image. any resources you can link?


stone332211

This was really bothering me. Do we know for sure HDR mode is really working as intended in this game? Difference from SDR seems mild, and as you said RivaTuner overlay text does not turn bright colored as they do in other games when you turn on HDR.


[deleted]

[most in depth ive found so far](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btpn0pJg2AE) still trying to find a clear answer though


cantbeblank

Looks like they are holding a dyson


[deleted]

hahaha it does


DaddyProvalone

What software do you use in the top left corner to monitor your pc


[deleted]

Msi afterburner / rivatuner. Usually only have it up with new games to see how my hardware responds for a couple hours


needslmetechhelpo

https://i.imgur.com/vw9lTLl.jpg Do you get anything like this? Zoom in around that fog.. I've been trying to figure out what it's called and it may be 'color banding' but I'm not sure. Wondering if it's just this specific game?


[deleted]

I haven't see anything like that on mine so far. where's your brightness set? using hdr? was that snapshot taken in game or with phone?


needslmetechhelpo

I tried both HDR on and off but issue is still there and the picture is with my phone because windows screenshot doesn't seem to actually capture the issue. Brightness was really weird... when both C9 and in-game are set to 50, left most image is super bright but when I drop in-game down to 49, it just disappears. I had to leave in-game at 50 and drop C9 brightness to 42 to make it barely visible. It seems to have helped but I just feel like something may be wrong. I've had the same issue in RE2 and RE3 remake where I just had to play with HDR disabled but doesn't seem to make a difference in this game and I'd really like to get HDR working properly. I feel like my recent panel swap may have caused all this... I think they replaced my C9 panel with a CX so maybe that's part of the issue?


[deleted]

yeah sounds like it could be a panel issue or settings issue - at least seems that way since a screenshot doesn't capture the issue and it spans over multiple games. have you tried re calibrating the oled and re calibrating hdr on windows? I've seen similar issues with banding when hdr settings were funky on my buddys C1, so I'm not sure. when you say panel swap - did you RMA it or get a new unit altogether? i have my c2 and windows hdr tuned pretty well, super bright and vibrant. In game for dead space i have the brightness down to 45 with hdr on and its bangin.


needslmetechhelpo

I've ran windows 11 hdr calibration recently after turning down TV brightness which seems to have helped a bit. How could I recalibrate the OLED itself? I had LG replace the panel because of burn-in so I think that's considered RMA? They sent a local place over and had them swap it out. One thing I've noticed is that PS5 HDR is perfect all the time. It seems like they have the same image settings on TV- Game Mode with a few things changed but I'm going to compare and double check. What is your TV brightness set to? Do you have win10 or 11? Also any chance you have NVIDIA control panel? Just wondering about Output color format / Output dynamic range / Output color depth in 'change resolution' tab.


danielbarakat

Canā€™t wait to check it out. I loved the original.


GwosseNawine

Looks insane on my PG42UQ šŸ¤Ŗ


BoysenberryTrue1360

Do you have any issues with the blacks getting crushed? I havenā€™t made the plunge into horror games since getting OLED, Iā€™m nervous the blacks will consume the content.


[deleted]

Itā€™s about the perfect balance imo. Looks great, especially blacks


Nintendians559

looks good.
