Lost Planet 2 is coming to the PCs on October 15 and it is going be a strong 3D title.
While this return to Akris will support Direct X 9, you will get greater enjoyment and even greater detail with its DirectX 11 features. Smoke will have lifelike volume and depth, water surfaces react realistically to player interaction and bullets, and level bosses are rendered with more detail than ever before. Lost Planet 2 will also feature support for NVIDIA 3D Vision and 3D Vision Surround technologies (wireless 3D Vision glasses sold separately) bringing the on-screen action to a whole new dimension. While we are still still cautious about about 3D TV here at TOT, we are head over heads when it comes to the 3D gaming.
Today, Capcom and NVIDIA have released a preview of Lost Planet 2. Containing both a gameplay test and Direct X 11 benchmark mode, this application allows you to test your PC to see what your Lost Planet 2 experience will be.
The Lost Planet 2 Preview Tests
- Test A
The primary purpose of Test A is to give an indication of typical game play performance of the PC running Lost Planet 2. (i.e. if you can run Mode A smoothly, the game will be playable at a similar condition). In this test, the character’s motion is randomized to give a slightly different outcome each time. - Test B
The primary purpose of Test B is to push the PC to its limits and to evaluate the maximum performance of the PC. It utilizes many functions of Direct X11 resulting in a very performance-orientated, very demanding benchmark mode.
