News Metro Exodus PC/RTX Analysis: The Next Level In Real-Time Visuals

[lashman]

High praise indeed, but 4A Games' phenomenal engine, paired with Nvidia RTX ray tracing technology powers Metro Exodus on to a new level in visual fidelity. This new game is an astonishing technical achievement and in this analysis, Alex demonstrates exactly why.

I'm such a sucker for new graphic tech! Most of my life I've been with Geforce just because of their geforce extras thing, even if it meant lower FPS.

Glad to see new tech being used quite nicely already.

too bad RTX costs like one months salary if you skip eating and paying rent for whole month

I think I might get a external casing and a rtx at some point and use it on my MacBook, I mean if I get a good job. Hopefully there will be alot more quality rtx stuff like this then.

RTX on in Metro looks great and is very playable for me on 3340x1440. Extreme and RTX High (not Ultra) I get most of the time about 60 fps or higher with dips to low/mid 50s.
DLSS on the other hand seems completely borked. I've read that DLSS on ultrawide doesn't work with Metro but I can enable it and it really is a blurry mess. BFV is so much better with DLSS imo.
So I think (guess) that Metro really doesn't work with 21:9 DLSS and there is a bug that you can enable it but it destroys the picture with a algorithm in another (supported) resolution and the result is horrible.
