The first one if I had to guess, more shadowy? I'm thinking the same thing. I think nvidia thought it too as its disabled in the nvidia experience recommended settings.

First one is RT Torch on 
I got confused by the UV timer running out and realise I need to find UV lamps to stand next to to up the immunity, any other way to avoid having to faff about with this when out at night?

Eat the uv shroomz.
On that note... how on earth DO you eat the uv shroomz on PC?
I have two options, equip or drop.
I equip them, but I see no indicator what button to press the eat the things.
H is for health so how do I eat the shroomz?

Max everything with Quality DLSS at 1400p.

So far I would say the game deserves its average rating of 7/10.
I mean I'm only 6 hours in but there are things that are annoying.
The timer in the dark is one thing that is very annoying. I get what they was going for but it still is very annoying.
Also the graphics.... really aren't all that. We've seen much better RT with games like Metro Exodus or Watch Dogs Legion.

Metro Exodus is still one of my favourite games of all time, it really is the mutts, so pumped for Metro 4 , I just hope the addition of multiplayer doesnt mess it up

when they’re quipped in one of your Inventory slots, press and hold 2 while playing to select it, then hold H to consume it. The purple inhalers give you a much larger chunk of immunity back.
You ned to swap out your consumables so that pressing H does the trick. Took me bloody ages to figure out this. I have no idea wh the devs decided to make major changs to the way works, realk annoying.

Few more screenshots. Just reached that Bazaar area so may get that video up tomorrow Nexus.
RT Torch seems to be pretty pointless but costs 5fps, is there any situation where RT Torch actually is visually great like the other RT features? Because I'm not seeing anything worthwhile for it to cost 5fps, I mean it doesn't even cast a shadow off objects anyway in this game so what is the point!
Can you guess which of these is RT Torch on vs off without looking at the fps?
It's not a big difference although it is quite telling when you look at the outer areas to where the flash light is shining i.e. the wheels on the box with the white covering but again, not really a "must have" like the other RT effects.
Worth keeping on though imo as generally when you are using it i.e. at night or/and indoor areas, the fps will already be a bit higher

Ok, I think you might need to do a couple of missions before you get to that one so might be a bit longer.
EDIT:
My video from earlier back has finally finished 4k processing now!
Defo a lot more tense/immersive the night time compared to the first game imo:
I should have ran in streets for longer at the end but I don't think my heart could have handled it....

Additional video settings sounds interesting.

All I needed was a mouse binding for crouch I'll check later.
TechPowerUp has a DLSS vs. FSR comparison review up!
https://www.techpowerup.com/review/dying-light-2-dlss-vs-fsr-comparison/
https://www.techpowerup.com/review/dying-light-2-dlss-vs-fsr-comparison/
Interested in what the dlss improvements are as it is already pretty much nigh on perfect and seems techpowerup rate it as being better than native too:
EDIT:
Still not seeing the new patch???
Doing some more comparisons on my end of non RT and RT and honestly I think the non RT in this game is pretty good, it's certainly no worse than most other non RT games lighting with the exception of a few games like division and rdr 2.

To be fair, you’re taking screenshots in the shade

Well that is kind of the whole point of RT
But that's my point, without RT, it still looks good to me and no worse than most other games with non RT visuals i.e. if people never seen what the RT version looked like, I doubt they would be slating it.

Oof, what keys do you normally use? I use the numpad and surrounding area and it's proper annoying when games dont have full rebind support. Even have the numpad enter remapped to space in windows (some games still recognise it as numpad enter though) as it is a common offender

Dont know whether I`m missing something but it says all tests were done on a 3080. Surely for comparison an AMD GPU should be used for FSR and TAA ?
