The Callisto Protocol

Those big walking monsters that suddenly run at you and appear in pairs are SUPER annoying. I've had to drop to easy yet still they are so annoying and barely give you room to move, applying health takes an ice age so you don't have enough time so end up dying!

Finally managed to pass that bit, the trick is to use the middle mouse button attack from the hammer, this does way more damage and stops them finishing the electrical surge burst if you're quick enough. I actually set up GFE to record today's attempt as I spent the last week trying to pass this and failed every time, yet the first time I start recording today I got it in one go lol, typical...

I'm now on this guy who appears to have no weakness :/

One of those bosses that makes you just want to ragequit the rest of the game lol.

Dude in that pic looks like one of the first forms of William Birkin lol.

Has the shader compilation stutters finally been fixed in this game?

This was a wicked game, the last part was a bit meh in places but the ending made up for it, looking forward to the sequel!

Anyone just started playing this? I played for a bit, loving the horror element as I was a huge fan of Dead Space... But there are annoying cons

FOV : Terrible!! I really can't stand games that shuv a camera up a guys arse for that behind the camera experience. So I'm having to use FOV mods
DLSS : There is none, maxed out I'm getting just over 60fps at times, but needs more
Graphics : The entire game could do with a good sharpen filter, it's just not sharp enough for me. So I'm going to have to use Reshade.

The Real Life The Callisto Protocol Reshade BETTER TEXTURES and Realism 2022

I've made a Reshade that adds more detail to the world making them wood effects stand out more as well as the ground, lighting, walls and dirt marks, and skin.

Nice!

The mod files simply replace the in-game FSR with DLSS version 3.6.0.

Was going to say there's a DLSS mod.
Completed the game ages ago though so not going to revisit it as it has no replay value

Denuvo got removed form the game the other day too so performance should be up....

Just starting this game now looking good at the moment.

Will check that mod out above thanks

So, is this game better or should I say more fun than HFW?

Not played enough yet. Seems just like dead space really. Looks better than horizon anyway as not as many nasty raster artifacts :cry:

SS-89 · 28 Mar 2024 at 13:11

It's a decent romp, I think it got a hard time of it due to the melee system and the ending sucking. Dead space remake is better though.

TNA · 28 Mar 2024 at 13:28

Too many games to play for me to want this right now. The main appeal to me is the graphics.

Make sure to use the FOV mod, makes a world of difference in this game

This game is very average and very short. I also experienced bad performance.

Still played it but it's a very average 6/10.

I replayed it recently on PC with a controller via the tv, smashed in out over 2 days on a weekend, was awesome, the DLC really makes it finish nicely. Having only played it on PS4 the first time, it was awesome to do it on PC, used 4K dlss, max settings but RT turned off, I easily hit my capped 60fps limit I use for my 4k60 tv, had zero issues, did up the brightness a bit.

Do the DLC straight after playing it like I did the 2nd time round, IMHO it's the 'real' ending it should have came with, as they did leave that bit in the original ending anyway (wont spoiler anything) so this carries on from that and makes it the game it should have been.

Also did the Dead Space remake before playing this.

I think it's great we got another DS in a different universe, anyone who loves DS can only love this game, and it still feels like it's own thing. Perfectly cast too.

I don't get how you had these issues and I didn't when you have the GPU above mine and a better CPU...

I'm now using this reshade

Cinematic with DOF ReShade

A ReShade config that implements duller colours, nearby sharpness and distant depth of field blur to give a grittier and more cinematic style to emphasise the sci-fi horror atmosphere.

www.nexusmods.com

I've also turned OFF HDR in the game options as it looks complete ***** in this game, with or without Reshade!

Obviously this game struggles with OLED and HDR. :rolleyes:

Like Hitman 3, this game seems to have problems with black levels in HDR mode, which can cause the game to look low contrast and washed out colors. Adjusting the Brightness slider will not fix this problem. You can try to compensate the black level with the TV settings or switch to SDR.
