In games, the difference between 1080p and 2160p is very clear even on a 27" monitor. In movies, the difference is not quite as dramatic because even very high-end cameras and cinema lenses introduce artifacts, aberration, grain, exposure inconsistencies, 24fps, 180-degree shutter angle motion blur, etc.
My point was just that HBAO+ normally isn't so demanding. It literally costs half or more of the framerate. That is very unusual and will likely be addressed in drivers.
I hope they do well. I'd love to see Cryengine optimized to run as fast as Frostbite and to see innovation equivalent to Crysis (2007).
While HBAO+ and beyond add a lot to render quality, it is a hard preference to prefer over 4k. Anyway i suspect it'll run fine on release. HBAO+ seriously murders framerate here to an unusual degree.
I also have a 1080. HBAO+ and SMAA murder framerate at 1440p and 2160p. I suspect (hope) that HBAO+ is broken due to lack of established drivers. SMAA also causes serious slowdowns even at 1440p. TAA is fantastic though. TAA removes pretty much all aliasing at low cost and the softness isn't nearly as bad as FXAA and SMAA are.

Is there a way to download a save copy and use it?
lol me too! But I just bought it and returned my $24 physical copy. So happy about this!
Hahaha wtf I JUST bought and returned this at my local Gamestop for $24!
I just revisited KZ2 because I got the KS8000 like many other gamers did. Amazing how much a nice screen can add to visuals. Game looks incredible. The scaling on this TV is incredible. 720p never looked so sharp.
I just bought an Xbox One S because I just bought a Samsung KS8000 60" and I wanted to test out some HDR Blurays. My god the Xbone interface is sluggish! I'm so spoiled by PC.
I bought the Samsung KS8000 60" with PS4 Pro. Gotta say I'm disappointed with HDR performance. It requires turning up the backlight to max which ruins the black level performance, making the image, IMO, look worse compared to my SDR calibrated image where black is 0.01/cdm.
I'm tempted to exchange for a 55" LG B6 OLED but it has bad input lag, possible image retention and that would be a 5", $400, and worse peak brightness hit.
Death Stranding. Great freakin' title.
Cautiously optimistic overall but the atmosphere alone seems worth serious consideration.
All of my information, I got from Bill Warner's work which is linked. Any confusion stems from my inability to articulate what I want to say simply and clearly because, yes, I do still have a lot to learn and my OP was a simple, quick analysis:

Islam is a religion, a set of ideas established as inerrant within the Koran, Hadith, and Sunnah; these ideas are called Islamic, and they differ from other well-known religions in that Islamic doctrines are as political as they are religious. Islamaphobia is a term used to discredit anyone who criticizes Islamic ideas and is often incorrectly conflated with racism at worst and unjustifiable, cold bigotry at best. Muslims are the people who practice the religion of Islam, they are not a race,...
PC version is a free upgrade so it comes down to time how much time you're willing to spend on it.
Ken Levine is the man.
This is my number one most anticipated by far.
Nice to see Nintendo spent their entire budget on a commercial.
I played the demo on a Samsung KS8000 4k HDR. HDR looks really cool. It allows darks to look dark while bright areas look bright in an isolated, predictable natural manner. However, I took the KS8000 back because I realized that HDR just isn't worth investing into me without perfect blacks that OLED can offer. Unfortunately, OLED at best hits 600 nits of brightness instead of around 1000 - 1500. HDR movies and games are mastered for 1,000 - 10,000 nits with an average of I'd guess aro...
