Until Digital Foundy releases their comparison, this is best video I've seen on RUclips that showcases the differences nicely. Most videos are focused on the wrong scenarios (lanscapes, chatacter models etc) where the RT local light shadows aren't there or visible. Great job finding details where you can spot the differences. Thank you!
The consoles are running ray traced shadows only, but it really helps ground a lot of the tiny details and models up close. Not something you’d notice driving in the open world, but on foot and indoors it seems very noticeable. Up to you if you’re willing to sacrifice shadow quality for 60 fps. I personally would have rather seen ray traced reflections because it adds more in my opinion, maybe we’ll see RT reflections in a future update on consoles.
@@MubeDSO Stop lying Metro Exodus on Ps5 runs 120FOV 60FPS Dynamic 4K with Ray traced illumination (It's rarely at native 4K mostly 1440p in the dynamic scaling
Thanks for the good video ive spent an hour trying to look at the difference by myself on the game but with your video we can clearly see the difference
I messed around with it today, and i gotta say, its situational when raytracing looks better in my opinion. But i think overall, performance mode looks and performs best. Ill probably turn raytracing on just to take in certain moments, then switch back when the action picks up
They could do shadows on the regular way and reflections by RTX. Or don't use it at all. RTX uses too much power only for a shadow that the ps2 could do on a similar way!
I am playing it with Ray tracing on since now it feels like a new experience but if I am tired of the 30fps ill go back to Performance mode but on the characters the details look even better with RT on
It's really not noticeable when you're just buzzing around playing the game, certainly not to the extent that it justifies losing 30 frames a second. Weird choice to not do some kind of performance RT like in Ratchet and Clank, and Miles Morales - both newer consoles can absolutely handle it. Perhaps it would've taken too much more work on CDPRs part to have properly ray traced reflections and global illumination. Either way the RT mode on consoles is practically useless.
Would have to disagree. Not everyone is intolerable of 30fps and I find the ray tracing features a really good addition. It would have been even better with RT reflections but considering how stable the game is now, it's totally worth it. When Cyberpunk is all about the details, this feels like the right way to play it.
Different games, different design choices/trade-offs. For example, spider-man and cyberpunk are technically open world but the Crowd and Vehicle AI on Spider-man is very simplistic because the players cannot really interact with the crowd in unpredictable ways. However, cyberpunk needed a more complex crowd AI into the game since the players ability to interact with the crowd are more numerous and unpredictable. These are choices made very early on development and based upon the engine. Adding Ray-Tracing + More Advanced Crowd AI + 60FPS might of caused bottleneck resulting in hitching/frame drops or more serve resolution hits. Also First Party Developers get more resources and expertise with the hardware, then third party. Sony no doubt pushed Insomniac to include 60fps RT to help sell the console.
Spidey looks great but system-wise, it is much simpler game, and its city is not as asset dense either. Plus it is exclusive, while CDP has to support like 9 separate SKUs.
@@Slavic_Snake It depends on the game for me but for me, I cant play shooters at 30 but something like Skyrim 30 is fine. Yea I don't think I'll be halving the frame rate for better shadows that i'll barely notice once I'm busy "burning the city".
I played in Ray Tracing and noticed the fps and the difference between the two modes initially but as soon as I kept on playing for hours and hours, I think my brain adjusted to the 30fps lol
It’s the resolution bump that really helps. Some people have very sensitive eyes and can’t take 30fps but if you turn off chromatic aberration and film grain 30fps looks gorgeous.
This video is the best out there I've seen comparing the difference. I'm getting back into the game after the update and I'm looking for people's take which mode to play in. I've just played in both before coming here and I gotta say, I do like the RT mode alot visually. And I also like the 60FPS alot too. I'm conflicted because I just feel like RT mode didn't go all out to make a huge difference. The only stupid thing is if you play in RT mode then switch to performance, you can clearly tell the difference in lighting making RT better. However the 60FPS crowd would argue otherwise.
If the RT mode wouldn't feel so freaking slowpaced would have been OK. But it feels very unplayable just for RT shadows which isn't noticeable that much.
Yea super disappointing 30 fps mode right now. Hopefully they improve it enough that it’s viable. Luckily , 60 fps mode is great. Edit: now I prefer 30 fps mode.
@@Ray-dl5mp Is it though ? I had to stop using it cause framerate is all over the place as soon as your drive or explore a busy area with lots of npcs. I know not everyone is sensitive to framedrops but to me, the unstable framerate you get on Performance mode is worse than a stable 30fps. Of course we're all different, but i do hope they will fix that
@@MadX8 on ps5 I noticed more dips on 60 fps but they were always for a split second at random times. Maybe getting a new mission or driving to a new area. Wasn’t consistent either way though and mostly plays well. That being said , I agree the consistency of the 30 fps mode is nice and has the cinematic feel benefit and the better visuals. I disagree with everything I said before about it. I’m now playing ray tracing mode with chromatic aberration and film grain off. All the other visual stuff on. Looks amazing with hdr once you get your settings right.
Finally someone who actually knows what the changes are for the next gen version. It's pretty lackluster for the cost but it's still a step in the right direction. To be fair, I think the game looks tremendous in every other facet because the developers did a bang job doing the rasterized lighting. If they add raytraced sun shadows and reflections I think it'd be more than adequate.
I would like for them to add all the ray tracing options that are on pc but in 1080p resolution, I think it's a fair trade to lower the resolution in order to have more RT effects at once. 1800p with rt shadows is nice but does not make that much of a difference when you're playing normally.
@@casuallydeep I never really noticed the raytraced visuals on PC with all the bells and whistles during normal gameplay. It was great to look at and sightsee but really I didn't think it was as vast of a difference as let's say Metro Exodus: Enhanced Edition.

@@AdiusOmega What's strange is the thing Metro brings to the table is a very good RT Global Illumination system. Cyberpunk also has RTGI. I really though this was the one they were going to implement on consoles instead of shadows. It's the most transformative after reflections, which are too expensive anyways.
@@Totone56 Cyberpunk doesn't have a full blown RTGI simulation, it's using the pre-existing bakes in the pipeline of RTGI. It's actually very complicated how it's set up but it's not very performant.
The RT is definitely only noticeable in close quarters interiors. It’s nice in comparison but it doesn’t feel like performance mode is much of a loss other than resolution
Been playing with ray tracing mode on my Series X. I did try performance mode but for me the faster frame rate doesn't sit right with me, feels like everything is moving a little too fast. And something seems to be missing, a little flat while playing in performance mode and now i can see why. It isn't in your face difference, it's all the little touches, all the little mostly slight differences that i noticed more over the frame rate. Also i'm sure traffic and amounts of pedestrians walking about are slightly cut down in performance mode too ??? I can't say for certain but it looks like they have. I'm sticking to ray tracing, i can deal with the slowing movement.
I agree with you how it felt something was missing. I played the first few hours with rt before I switched to performance and it seemed something was off. It’s not the fps but the lighting seemed to be slightly off even though its just rt shadows. I myself prefer the performance mode but rt mode does add more depth to the world in a way despite being somewhat of a small upgrade. Hopefully they can improve the input lag somewhat in the rt mode compared to other their 30 FPS games options in games.
@@pressrepeat2000 I switched between them a lot honestly. I wouldnt mind using RT since the lower fps doesn’t bother me but the input lag makes it harder to play. I would use both and see what you like more but me personally I play in performance for now.
This is one of the only games I prefer to play woth ray tracing and 30 fps over 60 fps The lights in this game are mind blowing. The game looks way more real Sometimes in huge fights performance is the best mode.
Look at how jagged so many of the “round” objects still are. Especially those pool balls. Holy crap. It’s like the flowers in Final Fantasy VII Remake.
Yeah but the overall graphics are insane better than every game (on ps5/xboxX). when you're playing the game you dont notice some minor details like this
They need an AI upscaling tech and ai frame generation, then you could have both 60+ fps and raytracing...I never play CP on Raytracing on my PS5, because for me, the smoothness of 60 FPS far out performs raytracing stop motion mode 🙈
I would love to have a botton on my Controller to switch fast between settings on Xbox. Performance with 60fps outside and RT inside. That would be fine for me🤩
Yes it looks better however its not enough in my personal opinion to be worth the change ur still getting all the 4k textures with support for HDR and RTX wont do anything for those
Ray tracing reflections make the biggest difference in this game, followed by global illumination. RT shadows are useless. Just stay with the performance mode
Great comparison, I know 60 fps would provide the best gameplay experience but Ray tracing provides gameplay plus great visuals, I saw the game with all its flaws initially and did not buy it, but now I might give it a chance.
Cyberpunk can't even pull off smooth RTX on pc with my 2080 card...it's really choppy in the city with rtx on. Outside the city tho RTX is smooth as silk
I am surprised by all these comments, it seems that people have not really tested it I play on a 55" oled TV, the difference between performance mode and raytraicing is very noticeable 1) textures are sharper 2) the shadows are better and therefore the immersion too 3) there are more people on the streets and more cars on the roads 4) smoke and dust particles are better so stop saying it's only the shadows that change Im on xbox X

I am new to Cyberpunk 2077, yet to start main story. I brought the game on PS Store, sale ongoing until October. Display look dark and can’t adjust the brightness in setting. I only allow to choose between performance & ray tracing mode
Nah, if it were ray traced global illumination + reflection then yes, it would of been worth the sacrifice but only shadows doesnt justify the loss in fps.
I still dont understand why there is juste a 4k 30fps with RT and 60fps mode 4k. And why not a 1440p 45fps with RT, or 1080p 60fps with RT. I hope for the futur and with RT global illumination
For people saying that quality mode isnt worth it, its worth noting that quality mode increases the NPC density & has a higher resolution than performance mode. It isnt just shadows that makes the mode 30fps.
Everyone saying 60fps is a must a d i get it but mow that a UE5 game like Robocop Rogue City has dropped everyone sees how bad the 60fps mkde is on console, quality is the only way to go without sharp spikes in fps, maybe I might have to do the same for Cyberpunk on console, btw you didn't show the differences in fps stability durring heavy action or the amount of NPC's on the street.
Hey man just got this for ps5, but I'm lost. RT and performance look exactly the same to me on lg 55 inch oled 4k. Is there something I'm missing here? Do you do any ps5 system level changes? Please suggest bro
No, it's just that only shadows are affected by RT and in gameplay you rarely go that slow to actually see the shadows. I recommend you just play the game in performance mode since this RT mode is not worth it.
When you make a video make a detailed how it was not working at you did not tag anything you didn't tell those which one was ray-tracing and which one was performance

Hey man just got this for ps5, but I'm lost. RT and performance look exactly the same to me on lg 55 inch oled 4k. Is there something I'm missing here? Do you do any ps5 system level changes? Please suggest bro
No, it's just that only shadows are affected by RT and in gameplay you rarely go that slow to actually see the shadows. I recommend you just play the game in performance mode since this RT mode is not worth it.
Looks like crap I’m keeping 60fps for all that jazz isn’t worth it.
-50% performance for lame shadows
Usless feature. I prefer 60 fps. Thanks.
I take 60fps thank you.
Good thing PCMASTERRACE is not limited to 30fps with RT :)
let's see your $500 pc do rt at 1440p, oh....... yeah exactly.
In addition to that, we have ray tracing, in shadows, reflections and lighting :)
“Pc” does not exist. Different GPUs exist, and in order to play decently with RT you need to spend 4 times the price of a console
@@casuallydeep you mean PC but not MASTERRACE
fuck rt shadows 60fps mode wins
Ahahah, 60 fps only✊
Play it in 60 fps.
Way better than micro invisible shadow.
Is 1080p monitor good for ps5 mate ?
@Raxtek thanks bro
@Raxtek what the ray traced shadow has to do anything with 1080p or higher resolution monitor? Theyre rhe same resolution in both modes 😂
When you make a video make a detailed how it was not working at you did not tag anything you didn't tell those which one was ray-tracing and which one was performance
It's obvious which one is performance mode and which one is ray traced. No need to add any text.
bruh chose like the worst scenes to portray ray tracing lmao
