better visuals doesn't always = worse performance. Many changes like this can fix your performance because it's better optimized models and textures. Better optimized effects and visual style and more clever programming can make it perform better for everyone even.

Finally dlss perf to get 120fps for max refresh rate which is good performance for raytracing which can use a lot of fps.
To be honest, I was a bit disappointed that the update took so long to arrive. But I can understand and am grateful that you are making the effort. I'm even more excited now when it will drop. Thank you very much!
My favourite effect is definitely the addition of the ability to use ray tracing, alongside the ability to see vorticies on your jet's wings during turns.
Please strongly consider using AMD's Hybrid method for raytraced shadows and reflections. It improves performance significantly without sacrificing quality.
I was ok with the new textures and effect that will turn my pc in a litteral fireball frobiding me to play ever again, I was ok when they made it harder to land on concrete runway with no landing gear even if I always somehow brake them. BUT at 2:36 they had to move that pole by an inch, AND THAT... I CAN'T ACCEPT, YOU MADE THIS MAP UNPLAYABLE GAIJIN !!!!!!!!
It is a good update but we need better textures. And I hope nature elements build up on the vehicles aswell. For example rain drops on the tank surface. Not only on the screen as a visual effect.
the rail cars are something I've wanted for a while or a generally more realistic ability to plow through things. another thing id love to see is trees being toppled and ran over more than them falling back on the tank blocking the gunner view
Only on some maps, most will still look absurdly dated due to how Dagor Engine handles lighting and sharpening...not to mention the small polygon count on many objects and ridiculously low resolution on many textures...and literally no textures depth or parallax mapping.
With 2025 only a bit more than a month away, have you forgotten that January is the new year's month? Time doesn't stop for anyone or anything, other than black holes that is ;)
Its not controversial. But these graphics are still worse than games that came before it, and manage to eat more power, aka unoptimized for lower end systems
Not really. It looks good but Dagor Engine (WT's engine) has really bad lighting and sharpness problems. Also the FPS drops and overall performance is really bad for the graphics at play. The new Abandoned Factory looks better but it's nothing groundbreaking in terms of videogame graphics.
I fired up the WT dev server on full graphics and ray tracing in 1080p and BARELY got 20fps with an Rx 6600 XT and Ryzen 5 5700. I'm cooked and now I also cant activate SSAA anymore which is super important for me
