Nvidia PCSS Added To 'Dying Light: The Following'

[DotNetMaster777]

objects close to the screen are better when "PCSS Off" but objects which are far away looks better when "PCSS on" ....

Usually if you are doing something more graphically intense and your GPU usage drops, that's an indication of a CPU bottleneck.

(in tech)everything is under planned obsolescence. you live in a capitalist world. come on guys, be freaking realistic. every gameworks game out there is due to the incompetence of AMD in supporting devs and not offering any viable alternative. nvidia gets away with these because AMD is crap. how many games are using trueaudio? tressFX?

you guys are still not expecting everybody to hold hands and sing kumbayah in this cutthroat industry, it's getting old now.

AMD is crap ? Dude, Nvidia sold 2 generation of GPUs without full DX12 support but they were stating the other, and now when the first DX12 games/benchmarks come to light and every AMD GPU is much faster than their offering they start to cry about different reasons, and what baffles me is that the users are fine with the lie, first was 3.5 GB now is Async shaders missing. I bough my 290 card 2 years ago and i can still play current titles... i feel sorry for those with GTX 780Ti that get stomped by other cards from the new gen... as seen even in the benchmarks from Far Cry Primal.

Sorry but i don`t buy into this gameworks crap, lots of titles that work just fine on consoles that use AMD GPUS work like crap on the PC after Nvidia finished with it. And i stopped supporting this crap company starting with my 290. I was an all Nvidia guy since TNT2 to GTX 760, not anymore.

Everything labeled Nvidia is either expensive or hurting the industry. If you want to support this kind of bussines be my guest but i`m waiting for Pascal to see how the GTX980ti will be beaten by a 350$ card within a year. Also having to pay more on a monitor that has "g-sync" label on it .. because free is for the weak.

And if you want to see how bad they are just install an AMD GPU in your system, the Nvidia drivers will automatically deactivate PhysX tech that you already paid Nvidia to own and use.

what? why is dx12 an issue now? next gen is coming. and the first 2 dx12 games are hardly remarkable. and i don't freakin care about those who bought their 780ti's. that's their fault for going the nvidia route.

what i'm after is these folks that keep on crying "gameworks is crap blah blah cripple performance blah blah". like what i've said, turn that cr*p off if you don't like it. AMD is hardly innovative nowadays. remember their Gworks alternative? name any AAA game coming out this year or the next that supports it. hell i even forgot what it's called.

nvidia gets away with these moves because AMD is crap.

You`re the problem of the equation, AMD is not crap, only people who state BS are the problem. And Gameworks have been proven many times by lots of YT reviewers (guys who even own Nvidia GPUs) to cripple old hardware and AMD hardware even more even though you disable that code. Even look at Batman, a game that runs perfectly fine on consoles that have AMD GPUs inside, but as soon as the game came to PC Nvidia got their ways with the game and add bad porting made the game a disaster, same story with Witcher 3 , same with Fallout4 tough the 1.3 patch seems to solve any AMD problems and make Nvidia older cards, and by old the 7xx series look like crap.

If for you is ok to support a company that gives you only a minimum timeframe of usage for your expensive GPU then go ahead, change your GPU each year like your phone... it`s fine by you.
