Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC brings the epic story of Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang to life in breathtaking new ways – with no shortage of dazzling technical enhancements that deliver deeper immersion.
PC gamers will only re-buy the game knowing how they can experience it on another level. Rockstar know this, since they did exactly the same thing with GTA5.
Fast forward a few years and GTA5 sold masses on PC, is still extremely popular in the community, chock full of mods and interesting online experiences. RDR2 will end up the same.
Seriously Whats with the Effin Disagrees? i never saw any Pro Enhancements to GTA5 on PS4 Pro , You People Are Disagreeing they should use that extra power for something ? Sheep Baaah Baaaaah!!
Cant Wait for it to Look like this when i pop it into my PS5 , ohh wait you dont want that because you spent $2000+ to make your gaming pc and want to feel it was justified , why are PC Gamers always disagreeing that these graphics could be close to what the next gen is capable of?
You generally want at least near, or above recommended specs with games, I'd think my 980Ti from 2015 should run it decently at 1440p though.. Whether I'd get 100+ fps with my high hz screen is another thing, i doubt it. Guessing it would run surprisingly well tho. I've recently upgraded to a Ryzen 3700x so CPU isn't going to be a problem at least.
Rumours of a new Half Life coming soon will definitely push me to a new GPU when Nvidia release their 3000 series too.
Oh wow really? Was worried with i5 4670 & 1070. Figured since I had to do medium settings on Control to make it smooth, prob would have to do same for RD.
Clowns yesterday: God of war is the best looking game ever! Nothing on PC beats it at all! 1080p and 30FPS!
Today: Native 4K RDR2 with way higher than than Xbox One X quality settings at double the framerate
Me: lulz at clowns.
Seriously 60FPS alone will transform this game. It felt so slow and controls so unresponsive on 30FPS consoles. Halving the response time or possibly even better will make everything look and feel so much snappier and smoother.
It's a very impressive technical feat that is about to get the level of hardware performance it deserved, much like the GTA5 release on PC. The engine can be unleashed to see it's full potential now. Who doesn't want to see that?
I'd agree gow was semi open but it only had to load paths and a hub essentially rdr2 seems to be a more traditional open world and I'm sure the slower pace of the game compared to GTA allows them to load more detail into the immediate as opposed to flying around in a jet like GTA.
Surprisingly when you actually get to fly a balloon the level of detail of the world up high is still extremely detailed.
Hands down it's the most graphically impressive title on this generation easily.
This video alone outstrips anything I have seen on any console. It's not a sentence most here would want to read and they would certainly cry about it as much as possible given half the chance.
Doesn't make it any less true and people hate that.
What are you talking about? X1X runs the game in NATIVE 4K, with HDR. The only difference is the framerate on PC, and some tweaks! The pro couldn't do native 4K. No matter, the game is boring. Red Dead 1 (which is Xbox One X enhanced to 4K) and Grand Theft Auto 5 are MUCH more FUN. By the way, yes it is going to look even better on PC, but again it's not fun!
PC will double the framerate and increase setting quality across the board. The video clearly showcases settings well beyond the Xbox One X version.
Most importantly doubling the frame rate will be the best thing that ever happened to this game's controls for responsiveness. A mere 1080p 60FPS will make the whole thing far more enjoyable.
What the hell is a PC anyway? An Xbox and PS4 are just PC parts assembled for gaming. You have PC's that can run this at 4k/60FPS, and you have PC's that can barely run League of legends. There is no centralized consistent "PC" platform, so your remarks are redundant. All games are made on PCs anyway so again your comments are redundant. You're also paying 2-4 times more than a console for a powerful PC so it would be pathetic if it couldn't run games with better graphics.
The arguments are never "Nothing on PC beats it at all", sounds like fanboy PC master race drivel to conjure up a redundant argument like yours.
The argument is usually about optimization and whether a game is even on PC. God of war was one of the best looking games when it came out considering it's performance and optimization and the fact that you could run it on a $250 device. You could always run any game better on a $1000 PC...but you're paying $1000 and it's likely that devs haven't ported the game well so it's full of bugs, or the game doesn't even exist on PC, like RDR2 didn't until now.
Your entire post is absolutely ridiculous. This wasn't some philosophical question about 'what is a PC?' That makes no sense. Irrelevant!
The point was the ridiculous discussion about PC in the PS5 topic the other day, where it was claimed by many people a 1080p 30FPS console game was better looking than anything ever seen on PC. Literally no PC game on the platform ever looked better. This was a real claim, made by actual users on this site!
Oh I beg to differ, very much so. Just watch this video to end that preposterous type of console fanboy claim entirely.
What you say is true, but as ProjectVulcan said, the amount of ignorance in that discussion was sickening.
There were PlayStation gamers literally saying God of War looked better than any game on console or PC...PERIOD.
And that's simply not true, as I gave several examples of games that look close to GoW, as good as GoW, or flat-out better due to higher-end PC hardware, and they were still arguing against it even knowing a PC can deliver over 8x the performance of a base PS4.
I don't disagree with that, fanboys often say stupid ignorant things, and Sony fanboys are one of the worst here. Without knowing anything about that discussion ProjectVulcan's comment also sounded like fanboy BS though.
X1X was native 4K HDR and 30fps. No matter how many FPS, it still is a boring game. Yes it looks fantastic, but it is a chore to play. The first hour is boring. Then it picks up, and then it falls flat. I bought the $99 game and it was a waste of money. I loaded it back on to my X1X last week, and yawn. I will play it for a bit more, and delete it again. If you want to play an open world game, get Assassins Creed Odyssey. I just picked that up on sale, and it is MUCH more fun!
As a fan of old westerns, and as the grandson raised by a guy who rode horses to the town market, this game isn't boring in the slightest. It's a literal dream for a huge amount of people. Your opinion is totally valid, but your opinion also fucking sucks.
Well, my opinion at least you validated. Have you personally played the game? I have wasted 20 hours playing it, so far. If you have not played the game how do you KNOW my OPINION "fucking sucks"? It is BORING! Red Dead 1 would have been a better choice to remaster, instead of creating RD2. That would have been MUCH better than RD2!
Damn. I must have a bad opinion as well. Because I deal with boring stuff in my work and don't want to waste time being 'overly realistic and slowed down' in my games either. But, at least tons of people like that. Kind of like how tons of people like sport games and I don't.
I haven't played RDR2 so I might end up feeling the same way. I have put about 20 hours into Days Gone and I feel the same way. It has interesting moments and maybe would be fun if linear but, driving/jogging back and forth across the map and babysitting a your bike and jogging so you don't have to is quite boring. I wish they would have put more checkpoints in the local area per camp to make leveling easier instead of the chore that it its. You know if there was an uncharted game like this it would be awesome.(Oh wait TLOU) Guy is from 10th mtn and can't even carry double mags on his sloppy ass. He must have been a cook. The game would be loads funner if there were more ammo laying around but, I guess that would expose how little game there actually is. So instead they force you to drive back and forth across the map. I did not enjoy spiderman either because it was quite repetitive batting the 20+ squadron of goons which were basically only 3 enemy types reskinned throughout the whole game and super simp made basic bosses.
The first two thirds are slow paced, but it sure as hell isn't boring. I certainly found it more enjoyable than any of the GTA series. Then again, I felt that GTAIV was the best of the lot, since it also had a great story.
While I'm looking forward to the PS5, it won't dump on the PC version lol. The good thing about PC gaming is that it is open, so it can run as well as your PC allows.
The ps5 will only be able to run this game at native 4K 30fps. It won’t be able to do 60fps unless it lowers the resolution basically using a performance mode instead.
PC will always be miles ahead of console hardware.
While I agree that @Exvalos' comment is pretty dumb, this isn't something you can definitively say either.The fact it's already 4k30fps on XBO X should be an indicator of the possiblity of 4k60fps on both next-gen consoles.
PCs aren't comprised of proprietary hardware and can be scaled without limit as tech improves annually, making the PC version definitive for all eternity. Hell, with the specs they're asking you could NVLink two 2080 tis and run this in 8k. That is if the spec requirements are actually correct.
I wonder if this version will come to next gen consoles. Seeing as how I skipped RDR2 current gen, I wouldn't mind playing it with these kinds of assets.
I've been looking for a graphic card promotion with rdr2 or the new star wars game as those are the only new releases I'd consider buying but I guess a gtx 1080 will have to do
Looks amazing. This should have been released a long time ago. I can't wait to play it
The new looker on PC!
I might get it on PC when I know I can run this game easy. The system specs isnt high at all!
Clowns yesterday: God of war is the best looking game ever! Nothing on PC beats it at all! 1080p and 30FPS!

Seriously 60FPS alone will transform this game. It felt so slow and controls so unresponsive on 30FPS consoles. Halving the response time or possibly even better will make everything look and feel so much snappier and smoother.
