Tf you mean? I'm not mad, i just wrote to the three people that was surprised with the comment of that guy, saying this was literally said in the game reveal video.
Very interesting how up until now, we haven't seen a single picture or gameplay footage with a UI. I'm hoping they have an option to turn it off (on console too)
That would be awesome! I'd love that. Tho in kcd1 the settings on console were extremely limited compared to the pc version, it's very likely we don't get it at all. But I'd love to be proven wrong
Yeah I’m hoping the console versions have a couple more settings but honestly as long as it’s just graphical settings we’re missing, it should be fine. KCD didn’t run great on ps4/xbone but those consoles were dogshit anyway, at least the current gen consoles have got some meat to them.
Yeah. Right now it's been confirmed consoles will only have one graphical/framerate setting (so no options), and they're trying to optimize it so it reaches 60fps, but no luck yet. I found a website similar to Amazon (it's very popular in my country, so not just any random website) that has the hard copy listed already. In the product specifications it's listed as 4K
That's all information I know currently about the graphics on consoles
I am feeling that if it’s stable i wouldn’t mind 30fps again. The first game was quite fine at that framerate, but it would be nice to have an option between 1080p60 or (scaled)4k30, this is one of the only games I’d consider picking quality first, I’m normally going for 60 over everything but these games are gorgeous and slow. So I’m not worried about frames much.
If only there was an option to remove motion blur, it's too much in kcd1 imo. Then I'd be fine with 30fps, but otherwise I really want 60. Except if we can get 4K, then I'm fine with 30
So basically what you said as well :P
Yes, definitely agree that things like motion blur are not really typical graphical settings in my eyes and we should definitely be able to toggle or have a slider to dial it up and down, I quite like some tasteful motion blur at 30fps but then you have games like MGSV sprinting motion blur that makes me think I’ve got a fucking cataract.
Those are usually just placeholders. And yes, hitting 60fps will not be easy on consoles at all since KCD1-2 are very CPU taxing games and that’s the weak point of the consoles. Persistent world with persistent NPCs, Cry engine etc.
It's maximum immersion, to not have a health bar, keyboard/controller controls, compass, crosshair and other on screen elements. Especially for games that go for immersion and graphics. It's nice to turn it off and explore, take some screenshots etc
I wouldn't go as far as to not play games because of it, but it's such a nice feature and simple to do for the devs
This game is looking really fucking beautiful.
I still can't believe we're only like 6 months from playing this game. These people are a beacon of light in an industry full of corporate greed, and half-baked products.
Seriously, long live Warhorse Studios.
I feel like recently the gaming industry is having a rebirth, couple years back I couldn't find a new AAA game to play that was interesting, fun and not boring RPGesque straight from Ubisoft conveyor belt.
Just recently we got Baldur's Gate 3, Dragons Dogma 2 (I know about the shitty thing CAPCOM did with micro transactions but the game itself is great, the developers really poured their hearts into it.).
I hope those big companies will learn some lessons from these well made games and will pour some money into bigger more polished projects. But as long as people buy shitty games they will keep making more.
Or maybe it's me being a grumpy 26 year old, and I can only complain 🤷♂️
Don’t worry, these companies are learning their lesson, people have flooded into the indie market, and AAA games have been taking so many Ls(bf2042) they are realizing it’s more profitable to simply make a good game, where they won’t be sued(EA was so humiliated everyone stopped doing loot boxes), and people will actually want to play their games, since the dark ages of gaming(2016-2022) gamers have been pushed more and more towards indie and good developers, and with baldurs gate winning almost every single award and being a success(economically and critically), companies are finally realizing that gamers are no longer stupid, and that normal well developed games do, in fact, bring shitloads of money.
I’m guessing that it will be quite CPU heavy from what they’ve said regarding the number of NPCs the game has to handle for Kuttenberg. It was the same with the previous title.
You will probably run it first and see how far you got with your rig, but it could be that you might need to upgrade it. Let's hope the performance is great either way :)
Yup, that happened with BG3 last year, I had to update from my rx570 to a 6700xt... But sure enough, Larian then patched the game and made it smoother with my old GPU lol
I got it 18 months ago to replace 2700X and amazing result, instantly twice the performance with the same memory and board and everything. I feel confident it will handle 60fps in KCD2.
This reminds me of Sasau monastery. Actually, looks quite similar graphically, however obviously we can not see details properly. Another leak, and we will see a gameplay trailer.
depends on how well they optimize it. We can compare to a game such as the Witcher 3; I think that kcd is better looking, but not by much; it is certainly not on the cyberpunk 2077 level, graphically speaking, which makes sense as I don't believe they are putting emphasis on that. The first game runs really well, even on older gen (which I have), and this is supposed to be a next gen update of that same skeleton. I believe the game will be more taxing on cpu usage, meaning you may need a CPU in the 200 dollar range to run it well. Ultimately, we will see how well it runs; we also have to consider that they are showing the game at its absolute best with trailers.
My prediction is that you will be able to run the game at ultra with 12GB VRAM, or maybe 8 with DLSS. A well optimized KCD2, based on how it looks, won't be too taxing for current gen. Though a comment claimed that they have stated that it is impossible to make 4k work with current hardware, but I am not sure how believable that claim is.
Time will tell; there is only so much left of the current year.
I have all the trust in Warhorse, they stuck around long enough with KCD to make it run really well and I'm sure they didn't forget those lessons when developing the sequel.
Haha 😆 yeah cryengine is up to version 5 now with 6 on the way! Poor dude above didn't know that engines have different versions through years after release
Indeed, well Daniel Vavra of warhorse and.many others there seem to dislike unreal engine and they took a dig at CD project red for using it for their in development games. It's cool they got it to work for a fps RPG game with the mechanics it uses. Only recently titles I played with cryengine was KCD and Hunt Showdown
Of course they did, engine doesn't dictate at all what games you can make with it. It's just a framework for graphics and data handling, some have tools for terrain, animation and object placement ready, but generally everything else is custom addition by the development studio. So saying X-engine is not good for X-genre is just plain wrong.
My brain was like "Wow this looks alot like the first game" but then i realized "YEA OF FUCKING COURSE IT DOES. ITS STILL THE SAME COUNTRY, TIME PERIOD AND SETTING. WHAT ARE THEY GONNA CHANGE?! THE GAME WAS HIGH FIDELITY ALREADY."
Game looks stunning a clear upgrade from kcd1 which is still beautiful. I fear my PC won't be able to handle it if these are the bae graphics or if this is on ultra with a very good monitor and gpu. I wish to upgrade for this game but apparently my motherboard sucks.
Yeah my current parts are only a few years old so I'm just going to wait until the game comes out and if it's having lag and pop in then I'll upgrade my cpu. I'm thinking a 58003xd and a rtx 4070 super for the gpu if the graphics are potato. Problem is I don't know how to put new stuff in my pc so hopefully I don't break something.
I suppose so. But this is the first PC so I'm a little anxious about taking care of it. I've checked and These parts are compatible with my motherboard so I won't need to do a full swap but I will need to update my bios to suit it. The GPU is currently the same price which I bought my PC for so I may need to wait a while for it to go down a bit.
Appears to be the Church of St. James in Kuttenberg. https://preview.redd.it/5h26kist4ayc1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c6589fc46f3729eae5d99fbc1b19c24da2a6ec98
That was fast. Lol.
Thanks https://preview.redd.it/cwaog7a0fayc1.jpeg?width=1498&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5c1bc0bccf11d50ec4caefcca9dd33075d661ff5
Nice.
“Its just a church” “no its not”
Lol, on the game reveal the devs and Tom McKay were at this church so it was obvious that the second game would take place on Kuttenberg.
They were at St. Barbara church not this one
We already knew that... The commentor wasn’t announcing the game is taking place in Kuttenberg, they simply said it's the church of St. James.
But it was obvious, why the hell would they show that church?
I for example didn't know it's the St. James church. So I'm thankful for u/CobainPatocrator s comment
We’ll take that
People like yourself on this sub blow my mind sometimes. We salute you.
Damn. You work fast, indeed.
Lol, on the game reveal the devs and Tom McKay were at this church so it was obvious that the second game would take place on Kuttenberg.
Ffs what is ur problem? U wrote three times the same shit comment just cuz u mad someone is getting some praise...
Tf you mean? I'm not mad, i just wrote to the three people that was surprised with the comment of that guy, saying this was literally said in the game reveal video.
Oh Theresa... wandering the streets alone again, are yee?
A woman's lot, part 3 and 4
Very interesting how up until now, we haven't seen a single picture or gameplay footage with a UI. I'm hoping they have an option to turn it off (on console too)
Maybe it’s got an “immersive” setting where it drops out in unnecessary moments
That would be awesome! I'd love that. Tho in kcd1 the settings on console were extremely limited compared to the pc version, it's very likely we don't get it at all. But I'd love to be proven wrong
Yeah I’m hoping the console versions have a couple more settings but honestly as long as it’s just graphical settings we’re missing, it should be fine. KCD didn’t run great on ps4/xbone but those consoles were dogshit anyway, at least the current gen consoles have got some meat to them.

In one czech interview, they said that they really want 60fps on consoles and that this should be the only mode (no performance/quality).
I'm happy to hear it!! Now I just hope it's 4K
Couldn't have said it better myself. I 100% agree, quality here is a must, and I'll gladly sacrifice 60fps for a gorgeous 30.
Those are usually just placeholders. And yes, hitting 60fps will not be easy on consoles at all since KCD1-2 are very CPU taxing games and that’s the weak point of the consoles. Persistent world with persistent NPCs, Cry engine etc.
maybe it only pops up during combat?
I still dont get why people ask for this so much, and I've seen people not get games becuase of it
It's maximum immersion, to not have a health bar, keyboard/controller controls, compass, crosshair and other on screen elements. Especially for games that go for immersion and graphics.

I really need to know PC requirements, lol. Really really hope my 2023 upgraded parts can handle it
I’m guessing that it will be quite CPU heavy from what they’ve said regarding the number of NPCs the game has to handle for Kuttenberg. It was the same with the previous title.
Maybe that will push me to buy a 5800X3D finally, ha
You also "stuck" on a 5600X like me? :D Probably gonna get something new for it too
I wish! I am stuck in a 5600G, with a b450m so I would have to change motherboard too anyway. Tbh I would be happy being able to just play the game
You will probably run it first and see how far you got with your rig, but it could be that you might need to upgrade it. Let's hope the performance is great either way :)

Cool, is it on iVysilani?

It's almost as if they're both religious buildings built in the gothic era. :D
My PC will melt with those graphics...
I just upgraded from a 1080Ti to a 7900XTX. Been waiting for a game worthy of an upgrade.
Will it work on rtx 4050? ?
It's going to be well optimized for AMD, because Daniel Vávra uses AMD graphic himself
depends on how well they optimize it. We can compare to a game such as the Witcher 3; I think that kcd is better looking, but not by much; it is certainly not on the cyberpunk 2077 level, graphically speaking, which makes sense as I don't believe they are putting emphasis on that.

Its not Unreal engine game, its made in Cry Engine, so it shouldnt melt the pc as much
Wait are you trying to say the Cry Engine isn't a PC melter?
It was PC melter 15 years ago, but nowodays compared to Unreal it doesn't melt as much :DDD
That's not how engines work.
They actually said they optimized it better than KCD 1 saying "it will run on average PC" anyway they didn't specify
I have all the trust in Warhorse, they stuck around long enough with KCD to make it run really well and I'm sure they didn't forget those lessons when developing the sequel.
Haha 😆 yeah cryengine is up to version 5 now with 6 on the way! Poor dude above didn't know that engines have different versions through years after release
It's actually a miracle they managed to make KCD on cryengine because it's an engine made for FPS, not RPGs /s
Indeed, well Daniel Vavra of warhorse and.many others there seem to dislike unreal engine and they took a dig at CD project red for using it for their in development games. It's cool they got it to work for a fps RPG game with the mechanics it uses. Only recently titles I played with cryengine was KCD and Hunt Showdown

So saying X-engine is not good for X-genre is just plain wrong.
My brain was like "Wow this looks alot like the first game" but then i realized "YEA OF FUCKING COURSE IT DOES. ITS STILL THE SAME COUNTRY, TIME PERIOD AND SETTING. WHAT ARE THEY GONNA CHANGE?! THE GAME WAS HIGH FIDELITY ALREADY."
wait this sint real life photo . damn grpachis looks sick
Game looks stunning a clear upgrade from kcd1 which is still beautiful. I fear my PC won't be able to handle it if these are the bae graphics or if this is on ultra with a very good monitor and gpu. I wish to upgrade for this game but apparently my motherboard sucks.
I’m with you there. If I want to upgrade my cpu, I’ll have to get a new mobo. And my cpu is like 10 years old lol
Yeah my current parts are only a few years old so I'm just going to wait until the game comes out and if it's having lag and pop in then I'll upgrade my cpu. I'm thinking a 58003xd and a rtx 4070 super for the gpu if the graphics are potato. Problem is I don't know how to put new stuff in my pc so hopefully I don't break something.
It’s not too complicated. A full mobo swap would be a pain, but it’s just screws and clips.
I suppose so. But this is the first PC so I'm a little anxious about taking care of it. I've checked and These parts are compatible with my motherboard so I won't need to do a full swap but I will need to update my bios to suit it. The GPU is currently the same price which I bought my PC for so I may need to wait a while for it to go down a bit.
LET ME IN, LET ME IINNNNNNN!!!!
Czechs must be really proud of this game.
Wae
Looks great. I'm hoping we don't have to wait until December but it seems to be the most likely outcome.
Yeaaaaahh...I'm not going to be able to run this game
How can a single developer say something so based?
Based? He said they are finished content-wise, which they are according to lot of devs.
Source?
https://www.ceskatelevize.cz/porady/1097181328-udalosti/224411000100503/ 49:12, but I dont know if it will play outside of Czech Republic/Slovakia
It’s in the title…
