True.
One has to then question why Cyberpunk 2077 took over a year to implement FSR then? I didn't see all this moaning from the tech press about that? Most people in late 2020 didn't have Turing or Ampere cards so had to use in game resolution scaling including me on my GTX1080.
Well, nothing stopping the media and game devs going after Nvidia.
) And yet with AAA games costing often over $200 million to develop they will cut any single penny they can from production cost. Expect smaller and indie devs to implement such things, do not expect big AAA publishers to do anything unless they earn monies on it in some ways. Apparently they do not in this case, so they simply won't do it. Also, it's not just implementation - you can turn on DLSS and other with UE plugin. But then you have to spend money and time testing it and ironing any possible bugs (which games are full on already as is anyway). Possibly optimise some textures and/or other assets to make them look better with DLSS turned on - some might be generating unexpected artefacts. Then you have to support it during the lifetime as well - people will contact support about it (for whatever stupid reason, it doesn't matter), that cost money too.
We had that tech for ages. It was decided to be too expensive and not worth it - Earth is huge, orbits are huge and such laser satellites are expensive, big, and have relatively small coverage, plus they constantly run around Earth, so it takes way too long to get one into position to shoot down a missile in time. You'd need a lot of them (again money and not worth it) plus they're very easy to shoot down from the surface. Very much not comparable to AIG development (we don't have that tech yet, unlike said satellites). That said, they're quickly developing such lasers for AA defense from Earth (military ships, etc.).
History likes to repeat itself, though by the time this happens, hardly anyone remembers the previous time. And you're right, both about CP2077 and HL2 (FX cards were absolutely horrible in DX9 - not ATI's fault!).

The answer for why Ampere or Turing doesn't get dlss3 is due to the hw present on those cards isn't fast enough to worth it. At least they didn't say "no comment"
I guess you do need hw to get significant performance and still good enough IQ. If it can be done the same in software or just on regular hw, AMD and Intel are welcomed to prove otherwise.
The whole timing of this "outrage" is very suspect. As a big Fallout 4 player,that game not only had Nvidia exclusive technologies but even to this day runs better on Nvidia hardware(I run one of the most up to date benchmarking threads for it). I didn't see people complain about that.
Just by the way that, I suggest people read what VP of PR of CDPR said recently about state of CP2077 on release - pure gaslight of players and reality, where he pretty much said game was in great state on release, people just hated it because it “became a cool thing not to like it.”.
That is how all these big corporations treat their clients - gaslight, lies, contempt, etc. And it's always just about money in the end - we have it, they want every single penny. Sad thing is - a lot of people already forgot how CP2077 looked on release, same as other bits of history. And then it will just repeat itself.

Agreed, though they were so delayed and changed the development ideas mid-development so many times, it's almost a miracle the game came out at all in the end. Bethesda is different - we know and they know how it will look and work on release. And then they'll fix it over time. One can wait or jump on early and experience bug-fest. Some people enjoy it, I'll wait.The worst thing is the depreciated RPG aspects for me. Their demos beforehand looked amazing. Although at least with a Bethesda Games Studio game we know it's going to be buggy - a Bethesda tradition!
I don't see how AMD could help them or pay for it, as it's NVIDIA-locked sponsored game. Which means, devs by themselves won't be bothered to do it and likely not much will change in that regard. It swings back to the "missing DLSS" thing here - if big devs get no money/help from vendor, they hardly can be bothered to do it themselves.
The RTX4060 series has only a PCI-E 8X connector.My basket at OcUK:
Total: £287.99 (includes delivery: £0.00)
I've just seen that palit have only put an 8x connection on this card, I've never noticed anyone doing this before, they usually put a 16x and only have half of it wired up? I know it doesn't make a difference, it just kind of caught me by surprise. Has palit, or anyone else, bothered to do this before?
Amen. Well said.
Amen. Well said.
Edit: And if it performs like a turd on release, then we truly did get Skyrim in Space.
Surely that £1500 would be better spent on a 4090..
Somethings never change.
You know what these companies will do. Just slowly make sure the older cards get less optimisations in newer games, then spin you need DLSS3 or FSR3 to run the games which is blocked from the older ones, so people will be forced to upgrade to a poor value card. Then blame consoles and do the same next generation.
