Thread: The Ascent will support Nvidia Ray Tracing & DLSS on PC
Looks very good! Those are some nice reflections. Unfortunately no RT lighting. I think that especially in that setting, dynamic light would add a lot during firefights.

I don't think the game is heavy to run on max but when I read DLSS, I jizz in my pants!

Good news! Might as well see how the RTX is in this game and turn it off 2 minutes after

I am still not amused with this whole ray-tracing or at least not worth the performance hit for me
 
I wish this trailer was in 4K so I could compare the IQ of it to the previous trailers, it very blurry for me compared but its also not in 4K so its bit pointless to compare.

I'm gonna have to decide between 1440p60 and 2160p30 on this one I'm sure and I don't know what I'll choose yet. A big part of why I was wowed by it was the IQ of the initial trailers, the lower IQ in this trailer makes it look more like a last gen game when you don't see all that awesome environmental detail.

The YouTube compression also kills a lot of detail. It sucks.

It's strange that nothing has been announced regarding Ray Tracing for the Xbox Series X|S - why not announce the feature if it's included in those versions as well - unless Microsoft is saving it for their E3 presentation🤷🏻‍♂️

Not sure how feasible raytracing in this game will be on the consoles. Shit is damn expensive and even on high end PCs, you need DLSS in most cases.

Maybe they will lower the quality of the RT reflections for the consoles to at least support it. Like WD Legion, which had lower RT settings than the lowest possible PC settings.

We will see more and better RT support on consoles once FSR and comparable tech drops on consoles.
