It doesn't look to expensive,so might be interesting to see how it performs.

 

[humbug]

There is a free demo of it on steam too.

So long as Nvidia is faster, that's all that matters

Interesting - Will the Demo have DX12? Game not getting good reviews.

The release trailer looks like a low effort tech demo at best. Seems the only thing interesting about it is DX12 and it's unknown if the demo has DX12 support.

Nice one, I'll look forward to the 20+ page thread of the results being blown out of proportion by 2-3 people.

Looks like the demo is DX11, Tried in both windowed and full screen, In general it seems like a pre-alpha game.

Might be look at 43 seconds into vid it had nvidia waveworks

 

[P.B]

seems like a waste of time buying.

If they included DX12 in the demo no-one would buy the game so I doubt it'll be added to the demo in the future either.

12 Steam reviews so far: Mostly negative 33% are positive,

sigh, moving on......

Coming in episode 2,
Nvidia waveworks in a coffee cup,
This is how games are meant to be played.
Nnnvidia..swoosh

I don't like the idea of devs using "we have DX12" to sell a game.

Yea true! But it will make the game sell and if you was a dev and made a game, would you?

Atleast it could be a possible means of testing DX12.

Don't forget about the total destruction of the fps (for both sides!!) when activated!!!

DX12 are not here yet and I'm already fed up by devs mentioning it.

 

[varkanoid]

10 reviews 3 positive 7 negative so far.

I think we need a definitive way to see whether the game you are running is actually using DX12 but I agree its going to be used as a marketing tool.

How did you get it full screen ?

It looks so like an obvious occulus rift VR game too.

It doesn't look like a game that push the hardware. Judging by the gameplay videos it could be a DX9 and look the same.

At least it could be a possible means of testing DX12.

Yeah, and I don't mind about say Ashes of the Singularity mentioning it because it's fundamental in the design of their game. But these others who are just jumping on the bandwagon and not even utilising DX12 to it's full extent are annoying

The game will probably sell well, just because it has DX12.
There were a number of people on this forum that have already said they'll buy a game just for DX12 because they're interested in new tech. Devs no doubt know this and that's probably part of the reason they do it. If you knew adding 1 feature would maske lots of people buy your game so they could try that one feature, wouldn't you do it?

No doubt we'll have a benchmark thread for the game once a version with DX12 is released. Will be interesting to see how that goes.

The 'game' looks like a walking along corridors simulator. What do you actually do in this?
