Any 'the Division Alpha' players in here?
What do you think about it?
>Somehow feels like Destiny
>>319553063
How did you manage to get an alpha key?
graphics downgrade is real
>>319553161
there was a registration form a while ago
>>319553205
still looks better than fallout 4, todd.
>>319553205
that looks pretty decent for an xbone
plus you are streaming it onto your pc, so its not 100% quality
>>319556390
Doesn't change the fact that most of the snowdrop hype engine features aren't included + texture streaming takes sometimes up to 20 secs
>>319557219
>xbox
Any streams up? I'm curious
>>319558093
There's a watermark on the HUD with the players gamertag and a NDA so I don't think many people will be streaming.
How long is it taking everyone to get their keys? Preordered on Amazon an hour ago and I'm still waiting for the email so I can cancel.
>>319557219
Also another funny thing: remember the breaking car glass from the trailers? They removed breakable glass altogether
>>319558771
well fuck, their engine was supposed to be capable of doing amazing shit
my hype is gone
>>319558771
For real? I really hope that comes back in the later versions of the game or as some nVidia Gayworks bullshit in the PC version because I fucking loved that in the trailers. Seeing the glass crack believable and paint fly up and stain the environment when paint buckets were shot looked so good in the trailers.
>>319559030
Well they left the door closing feature in the game^^ -> Every car on the street has doors ready to be closed...
>>319559351
I bet there's an achievement for closing a thousand of them
Alright, give me the lowdown on how badly this shit got witcher3'ed.
>>319558919
isn't it still alpha?
i mean, i never had hp[e that the graphics would still look as good as the stuf we got at E3 but...
wait, is this gonna be another instance of WATCHDOGS were we just tick boxes marked E3 lighting and shit?
>ubisoft
>>319559663
Well they delayed the beta for ps4 and pc but watch_dogs was also delayed... and downgraded
Just normal Ubisoft behaviour
>>319559478
>the memespouter appears
>>319558771
just fuck my shit up
>>319559957
why is the map so small?
where is the financial district?
>>319558738
They see through your ruse, anon.
>>319560153
the map doesn't feel that small cause you're quite slow^^ Ubisoft logicz™
I have zero faith in this since it's coming from Ubisoft. All their latest releases have been major disappointments - especially Watch Dogs.
>>319559957
Can you enter buildings and go underground? That would justify the kind of small-ish map if there's a lot of vertical travel
I don't even remember signing up but I'm digging it so far, I had zero interest in this game but this alpha has changed my thoughts on it.
I'm questioning it's longevity and gameplay variety though. I've never played destiny but this feels like the same type of game only in 3rdps in a not too distant future military shooter
the female faces choice are awful they look like dudes, and they straight up looks last gen.
I'll never understand why fps characters have better character models than 3rdps if you can't see them besides their left leg and partial right.
>>319561776
Buildings: nope, only mission specific buildings and bases which you can expand by completing missions
Underground: Yes but i've never been there
>>319553205
I don't think we can even consider it a downgrade considering it was blatantly bullshit from the get go.
what does chromatic aberration or whatever, do? this game has it
>>319553205
It was obvious it was bullshit, but goddamn it this looks so fucking bad.
>>319562320
Thought the same thing: Gameplay mechanics like cover shooting are very good, but you will feel a bit lost and aside from main missions and some random encounters there is nothing to do(like destiny)
Grinding is also very well implemented: 10.000 xp for the next level, every enemy only gives you 35
>>319562561
This is chromatic aberration.
It's an issue with some cameras which for some reason talentless hacks think it looks good.
>>319562636
In reality it looks a bit better but ubisoft disabled taking screenshots so i had to stream it to my pc
>>319562636
Am I the only one who finds this pretty and realistic? Wtf.
>>319562728
At least it has an option to turn it off
>>319562728
Why are all the new graphic effects added to new games in recent years just stupid crap to mimic big budget movies cinematic visual fx nonsense?
How about actually making stuff in the game look better instead of fancy filters and screen effects for a change?
>>319562728
turning it off, thanks
>>319562804
Maybe not so bad but it's a bit disappointing compared to earlier stuff
>>319558771
oh shit, I knew it, I fucking knew it
that shit looked too awesome to be true
>>319563083
Because they can't really make any meaningful advances in consoles without making their performance drop.
Going from sub-720p to 1080p was already enough of a hit, how they have to focus on other gimmicks and lightning to make games not look bad.
>female
>>319559663
>alpha
No, it's not.
An alpha of a game is little more than a bunch of texture-less polygons and the game plans already set.
This is a beta.
>>319563418
>*smacks lips*
>>319563418
Kek, looks like Dark Souls character desu senpai baka.
>>319553205
NEXT GEN
>>319563583
trannies confirmed
>>319563465
that is what i figured
i have no idea why it says alpha though
all hope is lost then...
i was kinda interested, but now im not with them downgrading shit
again
>>319553205
>that ammount of chromatic aberration
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE DIE SHITTY TREND DIE
>>319563418
>>319563583
>>319563769
Jesus christ, it's like they've never actually seen a woman before.
>>319563948
they only half decent one is the white girl, and with a beanie on, I'm sure the game will have more faces when it comes out but these are just awful
Looks like the game went down with Tom
>mfw when of my friends is super hyped for this
>mfw I tried to warn him
also why is the alpha 25gb I was hoping to try it out in a little while
>>319563418
>>319563583
>>319563769
Wait, hold up...
You can't even sculpt your character's face? You only get to pick from shitty looking premades? In fuckingalmost2016?
>>319564793
in the full game you can
>>319563083
iirc, chromatic aberration is a non-intensive way of creating anti-aliasing so consoles end up using it a lot to hide pixelated edges without taking too hard a performance hit
>>319565161
Well at least that is a relief. Sorry it's just that I was pretty hyped for this game since its first reveal, and since then, every bit of news was a disappointment.
>>319564793
you can costumize hair and other things but they are locked in the alpha.
all it has right now are presets of 3 males and females that are white, asian and black.
you can randomize to get different facial hair or hairstyles, rest is clothing that you find in game.
>>319564542
>Having shit internet in THE CURRENT YEAR
Disgusting.
>>319565491
>white, asian and black.
call the police, this game is oppressing the latino community
>>319553063
Is it still possible to get alpha keys? I don't own an xBone so I've never registered for a key, but a few of my friends do own the console.
>>319565860
unlikely, i registered for the alpha two months ago.
also this alpha is only until saturday
