Half-Life 2: Lost Coast
Right now we're playing around with our own Half-Life 2: Lost Coast timedemo.
It's still experimental but I wanted to include the scores. You are looking at the Lost Coast level with maximum image quality setting and then 4x AA and 16x AF enabled and HDR enabled. We use our own created timedemo here. Seriously .. if a graphics card could puke .. with this level they would.
Let's make it even more complex and launch a variety of IQ options, even 14x AA with 16xAF.
Again I can't stress enough that we enabled all quality settings including real-world reflections etc. Look at that bugger go ... amazing. When we enable 14x antialiasing and 16x anisotropic filtering we can still play this level at 1920x1200 pretty much flawlessly.
T
he results remain so darn good at 1920x1200 with an average framerate of 38 FPS. There's no way you could ever pull that off with a single card.
