Tomb Raider - Rise of the Raider PC

Rise needs lots of Ram & VRam especially if playing at 4K with highest res textures. I can play for up to 8 hours at a time never ever had a single crash in almost 200 hours gameplay time! For 4K on PC you really need 16GB Ram + 8Gb Vram unless you turn the gfx settings down. Also disable all AA its not really needed either.

200hrs that's insane, you must know the game inside out.
Yeh aa is a joke on rise, much better in the new one.

The Co-Op & endurance challenges take a lot of time up plus I also bought on Xbox1X to get the HDR which is missing from the PC build. Game is slightly prettier on X1X overall due to HDR being enabled!
 
Same setup, pure hair on high, everything max and SMAA x2

I'm shocked this runs worse than shadow... Anyway, hope this helps people
Those textures are mainly why it runs slower. Also Shadow is optimised a lot more Rise always lagged & the game world is quite a bit bigger than Shadow overall. You have to remember Rise was backed by MS as a Windows Store & Xbox1 launch title so it had a lot of resource thrown at it which is why it appears to have so much more content than Shadow. The Xbox1X enhanced build of Rise runs very smoothly @ 4K with HDR (HDR never came to PC it was finished in March 2016 by Nixxes but Nvidia decided not to release it probably because HDR would not run as well on Nvidia GPU's as AMD!).

That does make a lot of sense come to think about it, I never finished rise, I got bored of the incessant combat, I may give it another shot at some point.

I finished it the other night. I was at the point of no more campfires then was dissapointed how short the ending was. I guess the Uncharted end bosses has had me to expect too much.

I'll replay Definitive and Rise again but on the hardest difficulties. I really liked all the weapons in Rise. In Rise she felt a bit like Rambo. :D

The Witch scenes in Rise, that was some really trippin stuff. I haven't completed Babba Yaga yet.


There were so many fun battles in Rise though. No idea how I hadn't heard of the song. :cool:
