    According to some steam reviews it'd automatically turn on ray tracing if you set some options from med to high, that's why many people were confused why high-end performance is so bad (especially on AMD)

      It says that in the graphics description for both of those options (reflections and global illumination). While I think those being separate toggles should have helped being able to work with graphics options (and optimize for your device) should be a basic requirement for playing on a PC

        I just wish the optimize for your device worked. I feel like when a game has it, it always sets the setting way lower then needed.

        But if your game runs like shit on the top of the line consoles too, then maybe the problem is the developer.

        Only in PC gaming can they get away with blaming the customer.

          The problem with PC is always going to be the amount of possible hardware variations, it's difficult to make sure the game is well optimized for all of them.

          It also doesn't help that some people don't understand that they need a good CPU as well as a good GPU and end up with a massive bottleneck.

    Yeah this was a messy one. But I used their default settings and it was jumping frames everywhere. Can't really blame the consumers. Also, intro cutscene has been about 10-20 frames. I know a 2080 TI isn't new but its not supremely ancient either.

      Yeah having reflections or global illumination above medium automatically turns on raytracing. Setting both to medium should give good performance.

        My point being, the only thing I did was cap fps to 60. Their default settings did everything else. Also, the intro video plays before you can change any settings. How is it the consumer's fault if even that is running terrible? Lol

          It never was. We should never accept their bullshit attempts to gaslight and dodge culpability.

            I will say yesterday's patch did wonders. Disable cross play if you haven't. That seemed to be a huge problem. As soon as i enabled it to play with my cousin my fps dropped back down.

      Huh I have a 2060 and it runs fine at 1920x1440

      Just clicked auto set and forgot. a few drops during cutscenes.

      Maybe a driver issue for your card vs mine? Did you update drivers and rebuild the cached texture thingy
