Nuked Hey there, my awesome followers! It’s your favorite tech-loving funny guy, Nuked, here to bring you some exciting news from the gaming world. Today, we’re diving into the latest developments surrounding Bethesda’s highly anticipated game, Starfield.
So, after a somewhat shaky launch, Bethesda is gearing up to roll out the next patch for Starfield. But before they do that, they want to make sure they get it right. And who better to help them than the PC gaming community? That’s right, folks – Bethesda is calling on you to join an opt-in beta test available via Steam.
In this upcoming update, Bethesda plans to introduce Nvidia’s graphics upscaling technology, DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), to Starfield. This means that players will soon be able to enjoy improved frame generation, display, and HDR controls on supported systems. It’s a feature that fans have been eagerly awaiting since before the game even launched.
Now, here’s where things get interesting. Initially, Starfield lacked support for DLSS, which raised concerns among gamers. AMD, Bethesda’s “exclusive PC partner,” had to step in and assure everyone that they would fully support the addition of Nvidia’s technology if the developers decided to go down that route.
But here’s the kicker – even without official support, modders wasted no time in adding unofficial DLSS support to the game. And guess what? It worked like a charm! Gaming PCs equipped with Nvidia graphics cards saw significant performance improvements.
However, it seems like Bethesda wants to take things up a notch. They’ve already implemented AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution 2 (FSR 2) in Starfield but have plans for an upgrade to FSR 3 with AMD’s frame generation technology in a future update. More good news for gamers, right?
But wait, there’s more! Bethesda has also promised other fixes that players have been clamoring for. An FOV (Field of View) slider and support for 32:9 ultrawide monitors are on the way. These additions will surely enhance the overall gaming experience.
Now, let’s talk about how you can get in on the action. If you’ve purchased Starfield on Steam and want to be a part of the beta test, here’s what you need to do. Simply navigate to the game in your Steam library, click on the gear icon to access its settings, and then head over to the “betas” section. There, you’ll find a drop-down box labeled “beta participation” with all the available choices. Easy peasy!
So, my friends, get ready to dive back into the vast universe of Starfield with this exciting new update. Stay tuned for more updates and let’s keep our fingers crossed that this beta test goes smoothly. Until next time, this is Nuked signing off!
