You are beta testing this one too?

 

[darkgen]

Heh, I'll be "testing" on the SX at 4 but via GPU!

Not a chance lol. I save loads of money because mrk posts screenshots and then I feel I've seen the whole game after two pages and don't need to buy it.

My CD Keys code was activated fine for UK. It shows as Europe and US. Just waiting on the release now for Steam

Did you get the code quickly? I always worry pre ordering from CD Keys that the code won't come before release.

 

[ICDP]

I bought the code a few weeks back. But yeah they are very quick. Though it won’t be live until 4pm GMT anyway.

Got my CDkeys pre-order code this morning

NV's blog from yesterday:

DLSS 3 Accelerates Performance In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl & Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 This Week

Also, LEGO® Horizon Adventures™ and Industry Giant 4.0 are out now with day-one DLSS 3 support. Proton has added support for DLSS 3 Frame Generation on Linux.

Can't believe i've got to release day without bothering to find this out, but...

Is it just the same map from the original games souped up or have they expanded on it massively?

 

[mrk]

The map is bigger, entirely hand crafted and there is room for DLC expansion too:

Stalker 2 Map Size, Locations & Regions Known So Far - Esports Eclipse

Stalker 2's map is huge, stretching 60 square kilometer, but what about the Stalker 2 map locations and regions?

I preordered yesterday, looking forward to playing later. I know it will probably be ropey at launch but I'm primed and ready for it. I'm hoping my system will be able to brute force most inevitable technical issues.

Same, already got the massive 140+GB download done.

 

[monkeyspank]

Unrelated, but should I ‘upgrade’ to the Nvidia app?

I just checked cdkeys and my code was ready (pre-order, standard, global, according to steam) so I’ve just turned my PC on for the first time in months. Cue windows updates etc…

 

[PieEater]

Got my Ultimate key from CDKeys this morning and activated on Steam, looking forward to this evening

To forewarn you. I just tried to start FS2024 and clocked an update for Stalker 2, another 36GB download on top of the 140+GB preload!
