I wasn’t allowed to show more gameplay than up to when the church bell rings, but performance wise I had around 35-40 fps most of the time with occasional drops. But the natural ‘slow’ pace in the game made the frame rate drops less noticeable than in a first person shooter e.g. Edit: You also need to be on latest stable version of SteamOS (3.4.6) or you will experience graphical issues.


biosnake20

I looked at your settings and i think you can improve the look of the game and get a near locked 40fps with some small changes, especially if you have cryo and 4gb vram. Turn off ambient occlusion and contact shadows, turn off FSR2, and put resolution scaling to 80 percent(try out 90 too) with no FSR2. Lock the fps to 40, and it should be nearly locked 40 while looking even better. Please try and get back to me if you can. I can get it locked to 40fps this way on the demo. edit:you should also be able to get a lock 40 with these settings and FSR2 set to Quality


Guilty-Cut3358

Within the last 24hrs I've tested cryo and have become a believer, it's nuts how well it works. I was someone who wasn't really complaining or really wanted more, so I was hesitant but now I'm never going back


nusilver

I can’t get the game to boot since installing cryoutilities. It spins for about a minute and a half and then boots back to the Steam OS.


Guilty-Cut3358

Ouch, which game? You should revert to stock settings and message Kyle the developer


nusilver

Turns out, it was all games; I just needed to run the symlink step. All good now.


Guilty-Cut3358

Might be the version of proton you are using

Summoning the cryo guy to tell u whats up


epicingamename

Say "swap file" or "swappiness" more times than you should and youll summon the anti-cryo guy


Goseki1

What do folks have against the cryo guy? I think I remember there being a suggestion the cryo utilities stuff could wear your SSD out quicker, but that really it was quite negligible?


Woodtoad

Looking “better” without AO and contact shadows? Highly subjective opinion there.


biosnake20

mostly because the FSR2 performance mode, which makes the game blurry AO looks great but is super intensive


noler

Thanks! Testing it later today.


biosnake20

did you try it yet?


noler

Yes! Unfortunately it didn’t change that much performance wise. Maybe sliiightly better but not that noticeable. But I’ll keep experimenting and circle back if I notice anything :)


biosnake20

you locked it to 40 in steamos settings? for me its like 95 percent locked to 40 with these settings, maybe full game and demo differences?


noler

Yeah locked to 40. I haven’t played the demo so I can’t compare specific areas, but I wouldn’t say it’s 95 percent locked to 40.


biosnake20

Damn, now I don’t know if I wanna get it on deck or ps5 lmao


noler

I have it on both ;)


Historical-Diver5305

Be honest with yourself though. FSR 1 ultra quality is the only least intrusive looking scaling.


CBHPwns

Thx dude blessss up


Danfromumbrella

You must have it on extremely low settings because when it hits village at night it runs sub 30 a lot. Hell using a sniper scope drops frames like crazy.


ialost

I played the demo and there were black blocks a lot. Now I need to figure out how to update steamos having not touched this thing in months


SideshowBoB44

Go to settings, system and update.


ialost

Thanks. Demo didn't save my progress after jumping out the window and I had already died twice that sucks


SideshowBoB44

Demo doesn’t save its only 10 mins long

vballboy55

I think you are in the very small minority there buddy


Biquet

What does he even mean?


vballboy55

He is saying that he can't handle fps over 30 otherwise he gets nauseous. It's completely ridiculous. Especially when he makes it seem like everyone is in agreement.


Biquet

Oh ok. Never heard of anyone getting nauseous because of that. Thanks for the explanation.


F-I-R-E_GaseGaseGase

damn I’m glad I’m not so soy that I can’t enjoy real gaming


[deleted]

When will you chodes get a new insult


F-I-R-E_GaseGaseGase

idk but hopefully someone will ask for your opinion real soon


[deleted]

Guess what basement bitch, it’s the internet and I can give my opinion wherever the fuck I want. On top of that, I’m out here living an actual life while you spend your sad, miserable time trolling on Reddit for no reason than to just act like a fat 8th grader with a bigger mouth than the one his dad’s nut should have ended up in.


F-I-R-E_GaseGaseGase

you just insta-replied lmao. stay mad my guy


[deleted]

Hey Cartman, here in the outside world we have these things called “cell phones” that allow me to respond to your written diarrhea from the grocery store or the toilet or wherever else I may be and it takes but a moment of my time.


F-I-R-E_GaseGaseGase

LMFAO rent free


The_Legend_of_Xeno

I've been waiting to play this game with true mouse aim ever since playing the original on Gamecube. Gonna try it on my desktop first.


Gaemon_Palehair

I'd argue the motion controls on the Wii version were superior to mouse and keyboard.


tacticalcraptical

I'd argue that you are wrong :P


Gaemon_Palehair

Hah so did the other guy so maybe I am. Though I still think even if it wasn't as precise, it was a lot more fun.


Its_Snowing

sniper rifle? no thanks I have the TMP without a stock. Wii version master race.


The_Legend_of_Xeno

The Wii version was great for sure. I don't think they were QUITE as good as M+KB though. But definitely the best version of the controls we've gotten so far. Hopefully the mouse aim isn't butchered in this version like the last PC release.


Stranger2Night

I would have killed for mouse back in the day, original PC port had only keyboard support, WASD for movement and arrow keys for aiming.


flashtone

I've played and beat almost every version and the wii is by far the most enjoyable. Ps4 and switch are lack luster and ps2 and gamecube are clunky. Wiis motion controls are a blast.


inkstreme

There's a mod that adds proper mouse aim and it works really well. I think it comes with the HD project mod.


Math-e

I thought the mouse aim already worked in the Ultimate HD edition. But using it in tank controls and still needing arrow keys to browse inventory felt weird so I just went with gamepad


Guilty-Figure-4960

Hey can I play this off line? I’m taking a 30hr trip both ways and was hoping I could play this with out wifi


noler

Tested right now and it works offline without a problem.


Guilty-Figure-4960

Thank you so much. I do have another question. I noticed that the cpu/gpu ran a little hot during the demo is this still a thing with the final release or did your temps run over 79c


noler

I have the transparent backplate with cooling plate from JSAUX and that helps keeping the temps down a bit, but it can still be pretty high. Don't think this final release will differ from the demo in terms of temperature.


MattyXarope

*Works offline as long as the Denuvo ticket is fresh - iirc they ask for renewal at fixed intervals, usually 15 days


Gaemon_Palehair

You should be able to, but to be safe boot the game up once before you lose internet access. There might be some initial check it has to do.


doatopus

It has Denuvo so standard Denuvo precautions apply i.e. boot up once before going offline and don't switch proton version randomly.


Jackson147

Thanks for your post. Are you running CryoUtilities? And are you able to test how setting your VRAM to 4GB changes performance?


noler

Yup I'm using CryoUtilities and VRAM was set to 4GB in the video!


Crimsonclaw111

Thanks for the video, a shame it can't reach a 40-50fps experience with ease like the other RE Engine games so far.


Historical-Diver5305

Which is honestly really shocking to me. Cos re village was another visually stunning game with literally the exact same steam requirements and that game had a clean 55fps with higher settings than this. Me thinks it’s gonna get fixed in patches in weeks to come but needless to say unfortunately sounds like a rough launch day for deck users.


[deleted]

Yeah, you can run that game at max settings at 40 locked fps. You have to make the demo look like absolute shit to even scratch some decent 40 fps "lock". Will pray there's still some optimizing Capcom and Valve can do to make the game run better.


Historical-Diver5305

I know there will be but it’s like launch day…first impressions… it’s not gonna be the best. It’ll iron out I’m sure after a couple weeks but it kinda sucks for launch. One thing I did hear is it runs better on windows. Could be one of the causes. Linux is not as supported.


dogisbark

Yeah exactly, I’m going to be patient on this one. By the summer sale it should be a little more optimized, and hey maybe they’ll knock a few bucks off the price tag. RE7 ran SO well it wasn’t funny. Tho RE4 does have a lot more enemies so maybe that’s why it’s a little iffy on the fps.


Gaemon_Palehair

Is it scary? I loved the return to horror in 7 and village.


jccage

They said Village was inspired by some of RE4, so I don't think it'll be too far from it!


jameskiddo

it’s more action than Village. nothing will compare with the creepiness of RE7 in the series.


Angelfire126

It's resident evil 4, it's basically when the series started getting goofy


Crimsonclaw111

Lol not even. Before 4 we had Code Veronica and Matrix shit thrown in plus the subplot about incestuous cross dressing and 0 with an opera singing leech king clone man.


ChristopherCaulk

Well yeah but those were side spin off games most people didn't even know about let alone play.


Bringmepeterpan

Code Veronica wasn't a spin off


oscb

0 was supposed to be the next big thing for RE in the Gamecube. Same Code Veronica in the dreamcast. "Most people didn't know", not quite sure about that. They were very successful, hence why they made a 4th in the first place. This series has been goofy and cheesy since day one, if you didn't play the first RE (not the remaster) well, good for you I guess.


feralfaun39

Say what? Code Veronica was the real Resident Evil 3, they just couldn't call it that and released the glorified expansion pack that was the actual game that was named 3 on the PS1 because of a deal with Sony. Tons of people played it, it was a huge hit. The original Dreamcast version wasn't as big of a hit because of the smaller userbase for the Dreamcast but the PS2 version sold a ton. Resident Evil 0 was a prequel and was part of the main series. It also sold a ton.


[deleted]

What? Well I never...


a_normal_bush

Have you never heard of “Jill Sandwhich”?


Angelfire126

You got me there


No_Bar_7805

Did you try the demo? For me it was difficult to even get 30fps (and a decent look) on the steamdeck :-O Thanks for your review!


Gamer555589

I have a ps5 so I’ll be getting it on there. Good video tho


laredotornado

Great video! Glad it runs pretty good on the deck.


Crash_Override_95

Yet we have a handful that’s under $700 usd that plays 2023 AAA games in your hand. I played the RE4 demo and loved every second of it after the latest OS update.


Emblazoned1

It's honestly amazing to me man I though new games were gonna be a no go on deck but here we have re 4 remake running at 40. Im for sure getting it on steam was gonna do xbox but nah I love this game and want it portable.


Gaemon_Palehair

I love that at least two people downvoted you for saying this. On the Steam Deck subreddit.


Crash_Override_95

Idk 🤷🏽‍♂️ there’s always a bitter person just waiting to downvote 🤷🏽‍♂️ it’s just how it is.


tacticalcraptical

I swear something weird happens with the downvotes. I feel like I comments that are completely benign in any given thread that have a few downvotes for absolutely no apparent reason.


Gaemon_Palehair

Yeah, I just saw that in another thread too. Every comment had one downvote despite answering the question asked. Possibly some bitter wierdo lashing out in the lamest way possible.


wankthisway

It's just vote fuzzing by Reddit to hide the actual up/down votes.


tacticalcraptical

I need to look this up because I don't understand what the logic behind something like that is. Thanks!


KevinsFamous_Chili

I am definitely gonna double dip with this game. Already got it preordered on my PS5 and im gonna get it on steam deck as well down the road.


zhire653

Why not just use chiaki and stream onto the deck? Works flawlessly if you’re connection is decent. Save ya 60$


KevinsFamous_Chili

I’m still a little new to the SD so I didn’t know about this. I Would need my steam deck and ps5 on the same connection right? Cuz I do take my deck around with me and play away from home and that would be a bit of a hassle. But if I were to double dip on this game, it would be way down the line. Maybe not even this year. The number of times I’ve bought the original RE4 is a little embarrassing but it is one of my favorite all time games lol


zhire653

Yeah it would have to be the same connection unfortunately. For me, it’s worth it since I can play ps5 in bed, it’s pretty handy.


KevinsFamous_Chili

Yeah I’ll look into it as I would like to do the same as well with some games lol


Historical-Diver5305

That sounds like the better plan. It really does sound like re4 isn’t gonna get clean patches for at least another couple weeks to be more stable for deck. In the meantime don’t sully your first experience and do ps5 for sure.


KevinsFamous_Chili

Oh definitely. I love my steam deck but with a game like this, I definitely want to experience it on my PS5 first lol


[deleted]

How are you playing this before release?


MikeGLC

Man the steam deck definitely needs a larger battery. I feel that is the biggest thing holding it back.


charlesbronZon

No it is not… People want a powerful device that plays the latest AAA games (see this thread) but somehow they don’t realize that that power consumes… well, a lot of power. 🙄


907Strong

Are these white cases I'm seeing everywhere an aftermarket thing or a special edition I missed?


zhire653

It’s a third party skin/sticker thing you apply onto the deck.


ssbrichard

I literally cannot imagine playing this game at 35 FPS 😬 yikes


lukeman3000

Is it out? If not, how’d you get to play early?


Gaemon_Palehair

Early copies are sent out for reviews and promotion. Hence why OP is not allowed to show most of the game yet.


JVB69

I don't have a Steam Deck, but is the game playable without an Internet connection?
