this crap always ends badly.... non (visible) sea map levels of tesselation ect.

Nvidia just does this so when benchmarks come out it favors their cards, and they always impliment something that ll work okayish with their cards, but purposefully run bad on amd cards.

Not that it matters if your playing it on a console, but for pc users (esp amd owners) this news sucks.

It may not be good news for AMD users, but it doesn’t ‘suck’ for PC users overall. Nixxes knows what they are doing, proving themselves with both TR2013 and Rise. It’s actually welcoming news for many of us.

Money talks.... nvidia comes in with a bag of money, and offer to put in some special nvidia code, and they just look the other way while hugging that bag of money.

it happends, and devs just dont care... its happend too often for us not to admit theres a patern here.
nvidia purposefully makes something run bad (demanding even on their cards) but the "upside" is that it runs much worse on amd cards.

And the reason why? so they can "win" in some benchmark BS score, in reviews => more cards sold (because people think them faster).

It skews the competition, when nvidia are basically "cheating" to win.
