    Same horrid remake type as with Crysis. It just doesn't work to improve graphics a bit and keep everything else the same.

    It looks horrible. It needs new textures as well.

    Crysis didnt improve graphics even a little bit. They just changed color tint and call it a day.

    Needs complete remake. It was my favorite in the franchise, but havent touched it in over a decade due to resolution problems. Couldnt even play 1080p without tweaks and hacks.

    Okay guys, please explain one thing to me:

    How could "ray tracing" spontaneously "put" into a game that's running dx9?

    Pseudo ray tracing. Reshade and other tweaks, no real RT.

    Thanks for confirming my suspicion. I wish people would stop calling it ray tracing then, when people use buzzwords which aren't even true.... :rolleyes:

    Reshade shaders is not raytracing so you cant if the game engine isnt designed for it.

    Indeed.

    It's like when bump mapping came out and all the games had too much of the damn stuff to show it off.

    What they have done here is wrapped the cars in some bling wrap in effect !
