Hey, so I recently upgraded to a 5070TI – Been wanting to play Bioshock 1&2 Remastered on G3D. Thing is no matter which resolution I put the game on, some scenes depending where I look, game dips below 60 fps – even 50 fps.
I have a Quest 3 – 5070TI paired with a i7 12700K – 64GB RAM – installed on nvme – so I thought I’d be getting a stable 90fps but no. I usually play Z3D games at 4096×3072 resolution – but w these 2 remasters, even if I set the res 1600×1680 ; I get the same fps as 4096×3072. Tried all kinds of resolutions, same effect. I don’t understand.. any help? Using OPEN XR Virtual Desktop – tried w link cable too but that has the same fps drops.
I recommand to play the original ones (more optimized, works very well in VR, you even have 6dof in Bioshock 2).
Bioshock 2 original is more beautiful (especially in VR because of relief) with hidden options (better dynamic lighting, etc.) and has more atmosphere anyway. It has a better physics (spear gun doesn’t have any effect in Remasted and feels censored) and also more soundtrack :

VorpX enhances original textures anyway (ClarityFX, Sharpness and Texture Enhancement filters are very effective). Original textures are often more details (dirt on the glass, etc)
Bioshock 1 original has a great mod (Silver’s mod) and so has a better gameplay and is more balanced, especially at end game. I never liked some of the changes they made in the Remastered anyway (for example, the giant kelp makes the city tiny at the beginning).
Bioshock 2 original difficulty can be manually edited too and it can be really great to replay the game.
