How the fuck did they get this to even run on a PS4? I don't get it. Doesn't the PS4 have like a netbook cpu in it? Is the game engine some miracle shit or what exactly is happening here? The PS4 is outdated as hell

Because it's a corridor with baked lighting, baked everything.
Because they can optimise it for one exact hardware setup and have the combined R&D of Sony and all its first party studios.
Plus Naughty Dog are just really, really good at making pretty Jungles and water effects.

this
I really dont get it why people are jerking so much on this game, Its still retarded brain dead cover based shooter with retarded plot and forced set pieces.
>>337549676
looks pretty bland tough
>>337549676
???
crysis looked on-par if not better than that in 2007
>>337550364
Look at this butthurt cuck
Anything past four meters looks like a blurry mess, at least they make some decent lightning to hide it and probably works well when seen on a far away TV
It's like people praising YIFY rips when they don't know any better
>>337551885
>Ignoring facts.
Because it's actually optimized for the hardware it's running on, the game looks amazing when you consider how shitty the PS4 actually is.
>>337549676
You must be trolling because that picture looks just bad srsly
>>337549676
Why do nine out of ten games have ultra washed out colors? Look at that. It certainly isn't realistic. I don't know how vivid colors would make a game lag.
>>337552627
Well sonycucks pretended uncharted 3 looked better than crysis so they will literally lie about anything really
>>337550364
Which is actually a very cpu efficient way of doing lighting besides that It isn't dynamic. Dmc4 also uses this which is part of why it runs so well.

well duh

the only visually impressive game on consoles is Battlefront, and it runs at 50-60fps somehow too
>>337549676
It's not like that scene has tons of variables, or things that can happen in it. Even the more impressive set-pieces of Uncharted 4 don't have too many things that can happen in them.
When you start limiting options getting shit to run is easy, especially when you have team experienced in work like this and backing of millions of dollars.
>>337551598
Crysis also had massive open levels where almost everything could be interacted with.
>>337550908
imagine what it would have looked like if sony didn't push out the ps4 once they realized they fucked up
>>337554583
>Battlefront
it's impressive by it's mediocrity
>>337550364
>linearity is bad
>>337554849
I said visually impressive
>>337549676
corridor everywhere
basically limited draw distance
>>337554812
Fucking lmao at that pic
Say what you will about Naughty Dog, but they've ALWAYS been able to push the boundaries of what is graphically possible on whatever hardware they're working on.
>>337551598
it did not tho, textures and vegetation amount might have been similar, but there are plenty of graphical enhancements that has happened over the years and it does not look better if compared side by side.
How about we get some ACTUAL GAMEPLAY PICS and not shit released by the company making the game?
>>337550364
>muh corridor meme
Except it features multiple really open levels.
Another mad pcuck

ND were boasting about full real time global illumination along with targeting 1080P 60FPS when UC4 was announced. They didn't hit any of the goals they were boasting about in 2014 and the game uses a ton of hacks and shortcuts because it has poor LOD, poor texture filtering and a weak FXAA in game never mind the frame pacing problems.
Why people are making fun of it is because everything ND claimed was possible was cut back severely and yet Digital Foundry is trying to spin it as a "Technical masterpiece". The animations are really impressive but UC4 does nothing really new nor does it look very impressive even for a game running on a toaster.
>>337554812
>there are some people who believe this is true
>>337552501
What's bad about yify rips?
>>337550992
It's only a cover based shooter if you're a retard and cover based shooting is the only strategy you can come up with. On the other hand if your brain is capable of coming up with fun ways to use the tools given to you, you can run around and swing on ropes throwing grenades and punching those dasdardly dogs like Errol fucking Flynn, with slightly less gay overtones.
>>337557379
You can tell that they had to cut a lot of corners, even the water doesn't look as good as AC4 or GTAV
And the shadows are way too soft and thefilm grain is over the top. The lighting and amount of foliage is still quite impressive though
>>337557957
The lighting is fine but Digital Foundry were slaming the fuck out of other titles for using pre-baked lighting for ages and taking shortcuts while claiming that UC4 would be a big real time lighting and technology showcase. Then it turned out that UC4 is just as big an offender but suddenly it doesn't matter now and shortcuts are "Technically impressive"

>Which is actually a very cpu efficient way of doing lighting besides that It isn't dynamic.
The N64 didn't have any trouble doing dynamic lights.
Why can't the PS4 do it?
By the waylighting is calculated on the GPU
