It was one of the joys we received during the Capcom Showcase 2022. The Japanese company did not wait a second to release the patches for Resident Evil 2, 3 and 7 with which to improve the visual section. However, in the PC community are not particularly happy.
And it is that if we go to the Steam reviews of the three games, the negative reviews have increased exponentially in the last hours. The most recent complaints point to problems with good gaming performance, making Resident Evil 2 “unplayable on Kepler, RX200 graphics cards, and on Windows 7.”
For example, another user states that “I tried playing with the new ray tracing on my 3090 and it honestly doesn’t look any different than when I played it two years ago on a 1080 Ti. However the FPS is reduced to half or less, before I got a perfect rate at 160, now I had drops at 70 “. It is also noted that the minimum requirements have changedmaking it more difficult for users without a more powerful PC to play.
If we look at the Resident Evil 3 file a few months ago and the one there is now, we see that the minimum GPU was marked by the RTX 760 and AMD RadeonR7 260x. Now, the lower limit is governed by GTX 960 and AMD Radeon RX 460 graphics.
In fact, one of the most widespread complaints is that support for DirectX11 has ended, so it is necessary to have DirectX12. On the other hand, it is pointed out that this update is mandatory, which makes the situation more difficult.
mod problems
From Upload VR they have echoed another problem, this time related to mods aimed at playing in virtual reality. The patch for PC is causing the trio of resident Evil in this way, so everything is at the expense of modders spending time to calibrate everything correctly.
