What game has the best graphics THIS-GEN i.e. no fuckin' crysis or modded pc bullshit.
thanks for posting if you follow the rules
if you didn't follow the rules, you are a massive faggot cunt and I hate you and hope your dog dies of cancer

Modded Stalker :^)
Maybe BattlEAfront but the game is shit
Woah!
>caring for graphics in a video game
go watch a movie
>>342957158
ARMA 3, no contest.

>>342957158
MGSV looks incredible at certain times of day, the e3 2013 sweetfx while not perfect (nights are a bit too dark considering how well guards can still see) but it basically does what it says on the tin
FarCrizzle
>>342957740
This.
Uncharted 4 is nice, but it's rife with shitty low res textures, terrible draw distances, tiny set pieces, lack of AA, proper ligating etc
It's nice by console standards, but it doesn't even come close to what's available on PC.
>>342957710

Take note, faggot.

What the fuck is this shit, and why the fuck are you pretending that looks good? Even unmodded GTA5 has better textures, lighting and draw distance. Thanks for the laugh.

wat
Witcher 3
thread's over
>>342958819
If you think that piece of shit looks any better than uncharted 4, you need to check your eyes.
>>342958819
Still looks like a PS2 game with an ENB applied. Stop lying to yourselves. The exclusive tag is messing with your perception.
>>342958986
Can't you sonycucks just die?
Everytime the same shit with your stupid exclusives and it barely looks better than the new tomb raider.
>>342958864
This desu senpai
>>342959161
>>342959068
>>342958979
this. even though the game is shit it's the best looking game I've seen.
It's a fucking shame about unity
1. They fucked up the optimization on release BAD, so it performed like dogshit on even the best cards of the time
2. The mechanics in the game were really buggy on release and didn't perform like they were supposed to
3. The level design was ass
So what do they do?
1. Toan down Syndicate's graphics (which now actually perform worse than Unity anyway because they didn't bother to optimize it as much lel)
2. Simplify the combat back to near brotherhood levels, even black flag's combat was more complex
3. Simplify the movement system tons, which makes no sense since now the level design is far better in this game and would benefit from Unity's movement.
>>342957158
What about unmodded PC versions just using the highest in-game settings?
Battlefront takes it.
>>342958380
I thought this was a photograph for a sec until I looked at the tree, but I understand it's difficult to get trees looking good in games.
Corollary:
If it doesn't run at least 1080p/60FPS, it doesn't count.
>>342958979
This game is a fucking miracle of technology too. Runs amazingly well.
I completely expect that in 5-10 years we'll see a full open world using the photomapping tech that was used in battlefront. Right now it's a bit too time consuming to make a full open world with that tech (which is also the number 1 reason why battlefront didn't have a campaign), but as the technology improves it will be easier.
>>342959245
>console version
Get this shit out of here.Also, TW3 actually is one of the best looking games around.
>>342959131
god damn that looks good. does it run good on PC too?
>>342959467
Yea the lightning is amazing in this one.

>>342958979
I played the beta and it wasn't that bad, if it was like 5x cheaper to get all the maps I would totally get it. A shame it costs like fucking $120 just to have content that's STILL less than what Battlefront 2 had.
>>342959529
the lighting in the witcher 3 is puke worthy. why did they have to stylize it like that.
AC Unity has better graphics.
>>342959467
100/100 vision confirmed.
>>342959467
You often see houses made up of cardboard boxes where you live?
>>342959695
Unity has universally baked lighting indoors. THe screenshots people love posting *literall* have the exact baked lighting composition found in the Uncharted games, and PC gamers eat that shit up.
OP, you definitely should have posted a screenshot of the interior buildings in Asscreed Unity, they look a metric fuckton better than the outside environments.
Pic related, definitely some of the most graphically impressive interiors in any game.
>>342958492
>video GAME
Take note, faggot.
>>342959806
Because pre-baking looks fucking mint
>>342957158
That is gorgeous what console and which AC is that?
>>342959695
The lighting in TW3 is great. It's one of the few games where lighting interacts with foliage realistically.
>>342959914
Not when Sony does it. Then it's shit and eye cancer.
>>342959850
>I'm retarded
The visual / audio feedback aspect is literally half of the experience. By saying "who cares about graphics" you're effectively saying "who cares about half of what makes a good video game good."
It's really tough to say.
It's a tie between AC Unity, Battlefront, and Arkham Knight
>>342960040
I disagree with you on the grounds you're wrong
>>342960052
>he says as his entire Steam library is filled with retro pixel shit in the current year
Stay mad, PCuck
>>342960103
I'm more impressed that Arkham Knight is using Unreal 3 but is comparable to all the 'next-gen' engines
>>342960161
>being this proud of ignorance
>>342960103
battlefront is objectively best.
unity and arkham ran like shit.
>>342960103
the thing that impresses me with arkham knight is that it is unreal engine 3.
>>342960161
I can't stand those games though. Shit like Binding of Isaac or Enter the Gungeon makes me want to fall asleep or puke.
>>342959369
Techncally it's within the rules.
And Need for Speed, Driveclub, and Uncharted 4
>>342957158
Not memeing but uncharted 4 looked great. Screenshots and youtube videos don't do it justice at all. I'd say Battlefront is the best looking game this gen so far though.
you niggaz WISH you had cobblestones as high res as this
Battlefront and Witcher 3 hands down.
>>342960103
If the PC versions weren't fucked on release. Arkham Knight and Quantum Break on PC would easily be the best looking games this gen as they have retarded amounts of technology going on along with looking spectacular.
>>342960375
No no no, you gotta take a good one, guy
>>342957740
looks like shit
>>342960375
>>342960103
AC and Batman run like absolute horseshit though
Technically speaking, probably Battlefront, AC Unity, Rise of the Tomb Raider or Ryse.
Aesthetically speaking, Bloodborne. No contest.
>>342960641
Except Killer Instinct has the best aesthetics. Until Final Fantasy XV comes out.
>>342957158
Arkham Knight of course
>>342960161
"I'm retarded": The post
>>342957816
>
nah, we'll just have some jackass posting the same screenshot comparing the original trailer to the pre-alpha even though DF did full comparisons after the game released and said it looks pretty damn close to the original cutscene and far better than the first gameplay footage in many regards.
>>342960765
>all dem tits
>all dem textures
>>342960641
Quantum Break, Alien, Lords of the Fallen, Doom, Wolfenstein, and more all look on par with those games.
Bloodborne looks like crap. It was downgraded, runs like shit, has shit textures, and more! The only good things about that game were character faces and the sky boxes.
>>342960709
XV looks even worse than Bloodborne.
Driveclub
>>342959687
You could get the base game for 13$ on origin use a Mexicunt vpn

>Oh look at me. I can simulate flawless metallic texture so well.
I don't understand why racing games are a use as an example when they all look the same since 2006
>>342961220
Post again without salt.
Did they fix arkham knight's pc performance yet?
The Witness anybody?
>>342961391
Do you really have to bring your insecurity with you on the internet?
>>342961391
Damn! That's sexy, what's that??
always thought Arma was extremely impressive even if it runs like absolute shit because Bohemia are inept
>>342957740
>it's just trees and grass
Yeah, not impressed, like, at all.
>>342961393
nope, get it on console. Not even joking on that. WB fucked up that bad
>>342961497
HAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAAHA
>>342961393
No. They abandoned the game. As it stands, whether it will work fine for you or not is a complete coin toss.
>>342961485
I only post images. You are the one that cries and is insecure.
>>342961609

Just Cause 3
>>342959527
it's easy to run a game well if there's nothing to do in it. :^)
>>342961492
runs pretty well on my i5 2500k, gtx970, 5-6k drawdistance and everything maxed on 1080p.
It's a massive processor bottleneck and kills AMD ones.
i5-2500k OC'd is fantastic for it. Haven't tried it since I OC'd by 1.5ghz on a 20 quid cooler tho. Prolly will run better.
Basically what drags down FPS is all the AI, sound engine and unoptimizied missions.
A3 is my GOTYAY until A4
but I htae most of the tryhard community and retards calling it a sim. Atleast SP has a lot of whole map dynamic missions.
>>342960832
U4 looks fine asthetically. There's just better games technology wise that do a shit ton more than U4 and U4 has a lot of absurd 2011 era console game compromises like hybrid baked lighting using Global Illumination as a placement (ND ran full GI over a scene using dev kits. Noted where they needed lighting and placed a baked light in instead), aggressive LOD culling, shadowmaps at lower resolution than game's main buffer, temporal AA and texture flitering. It just showed Digital Foundry is full of shit trying to keep console fanboys watching them. U4 is a good looking game, but we're talking about a game with absolutely no ambient occlusion or volumetric lighting compared to games that were working miracles on PS4 like Arkham Knight which has full real time GI, Ambient Occulusion and volumetric
It's nowhere near Arkham Knight, Alien Isolation, Battlefront, The Witcher 3 or AC Unity (And even though AC Unity used a baked GI solution. It still looked incredible and was pushing a lot more factors like the AI).
UC4 is a Good looking game? Yes it is
UC4 is a good example of console devs working with limitations? Yes it is
UC4 is the Technical Masterpiece of the gen? Bullshit and Digital Foundry were pandering to rabid, frothing fanboys for clicks.
>>342961995
I have the feeling that the only persons saying shit against goodlooking games are consolefags.
>>342958979
Its such a shame that the graphics had no good game to pair up with.
Any recommended mods for W3?
>>342957158
>no mods

>The Witcher 3
Guess how I know you're full of shit?
>>342961639
Pointing out that Arkham Knight actually looks like shit without all the "cinematic" effects isn't an insecurity. Spazzing out and resorting ad hominem, however, is.
>>342958380
This looks like shit too.
>>342958979
This one is probably the best looking one.
>>342962216
i never said the game doesn't look good. BattlefrontEA is the best looking game year to date. and it is extremely well optimized for gfx cards and consoles alike. but that doesn't mean shit -- the game is fucking barren and you know it.
>>342957158
Damn that looks fuckin great. Haven't played since Black Flag and now I've been trying to get caught up. Rogue is turning out to be better than Black Flag.

Bunch of retarded graphics whores.
>>342962318
Witcher 3 had actual volumetric fog compared to the alpha blending UC4 used so it's also technically on another level beyond UC4.
But if you want to point out that a "Downgraded" PC game still looks better than a console exclusive, by all means.
>>342963090
>you autist
I don't think you know what that word means.
>>342963258

>>342963352
And that's literally the only thing it did decently. The rest of that game is last-gen as fuck and absolutely looks worse than UC4. And I shit on that game constantly.
TW3 is extremely unimpressive post-downgrade.
>>342963090
>you autist
I don't think you know what that word means
>>342963090
>you autist
I don't think you know what that word means
>>342962328
There's nothing wrong with these "cinematic" effects if they make the game look better. They only become a problem when they're overdone and actually bring down the games graphics. Graphics aren't just poly count you fucking autist
>>342963552
>he doesn't play at 1:10 ratio
Do you eat shit?
>>342958676
Yeah nah. Rockstar has the most expensive engine in all of video games but GTA V doesn't look better than ArmA 3 though it is still a better worldbuild.
I mean, they built all of LA.
ArmA 3's city is pretty generic in comparison.
>>342959695
Nah, the whole game has its own artstyle and its pretty endearing. It strives to be a nudge off from reality and manages it in a cohesive way where everything shares the same characteristics of the design philosophy and none of it falls out of mesh. The lighting and color palette(though I do use ENB out of preference) are really pretty great.
They really aren't just some generic landscapes with bland lighting thrown on it within a small space, everything creates a bigger image. I love that.
>>342959842
AC Unity is by far the best hallway simulator there is. Ubisoft games in general usually look pretty great, but they are fairly uninspired at making use of it.
I wouldn't say "best of the generation" but the new Ratchet & Clank looks pretty good.
>>342963352
That's like saying one product is better than another solely because it is more expensive. it shouldn't matter to you how demanding the graphics techniques used actually are, or what technical level they are on. All that matters is whether or not the game looks good to the eye.
>>342963584
How wrong are you?
Witcher 3 has no pre-baked lighting anywhere. Lighting is dynamically generated by the engine, and it has global illumination as well, and volumetric clouds.
It also has no loading screens unless you teleport.
Witcher 3 is on another level technologically.
>>342963793
game?
>>342963352
Iz dat sum Hitman?
Looks good on PS4, too.
>>342963867
what part of this is fun?
even AC has more interesting platforming than this shit. there is literally only one route. you may as well have it as a cutscene. what a load of GARBAGE. also the graphics don't even look that good.
>>342963807
Is that image of yours from a game? If so color me quite intrigued.
>>342963982

Order or Uncharted
I dont know.
Order isnt worth any money and i wont pay more than 20$ UC4. So dont have yet.
>>342964027
You clearly didn't pay attention. There isn't just 1 route. And it's about exploration. He could take a bunch of different routes and look for other treasures, notes, journal entries, etc. aside from progressing the story.
>>342963867
That doesn't look good at all outside of the animation, anon. Poor texture filtering. Poor water shaders. Alpha blended waterfall and fog in the background and no Ambient Occlusion. It makes the overall product look cheap. The lack of AO and Volumetric fog/water spray in a scene like that is pretty shocking or even any indication of the weather. They may as well not have had the waterfall there at all.
I mean, even Euro Truck sim has real time GI and volumetric cloud. UC4 needs to catch up with the times.
>>342963996
Hitman is easily one of the best technology pushing games this gen and looks beautiful to boot.
>>342964039
Witcher 3 Blood and Wine, its a fairytale dreamworld region you go to.
>>342964027
>there is literally only one route
there are like 3 routes visible in that webm alone; two above and the one the player is going through
Uncharted 4 could look amazing if it wasn't for the:
>30fps
>1080p max
What a shame.
>>342958997
everything looks like a PS2 game too you console fags. Even then FFX still looks better than some modern games
>>342964431
the 30FPS didn't bother me honestly, I'm usually pretty sensitive to that but the ND wizardry got me again
>>342964532
I personally think U3 at 60fps looked better.
30fps just hurts my eyes, and they blend it with motion blur to try and hide it.
Battlefront
Rayman Origins or Legends
>>342964676
>>342964431
why is everything made of shiny plastic
>>342964532
>>342964643
The single player runs 60FPS at certain times, usually cutscenes and the sword fight, but is mostly locked to 30
The multi cuts the grafix down so it's always 60
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7m8cS-zBeBw
>>342964676
If only it wasn't a shitty abortion in every other aspect
>>342962113
You are just jealous over the fact that Uncharted 4 is doing all of these new things + having complete environmental interaction + having the newest graphics rendering techniques represented.
>>342957740
Hell no Arma 3 looks like completely dog shit no matter the graphical settings. It's a tie between The Order 1886 and Killzone Shadow Fall

It looks worse than a cross gen GTA V. Significantly worse tech all round as well (no mocap and the rag dolls are last gen tier)
>>342961393
It works about as well as console. All versions run like absolute crap. Come back to it in a few GPU generations.

Goddamit Ubisoft. If i set everything to ultra, i want the fucking shadows to look like ultra.
>>342964876
The Division does complete environment interaction, PBR and has significantly better lighting, even on PS4, anon
Also your screen has poor temporal AA and AF and some half-baked PBR along with the baked lighting emerging from the cave exit.
>>342965548
Nah dude I recently 100%'d Arkham Knight on Xbone and it ran really damn well. Graphics were impressive and I had no framerate issues.

like I said, you are evaluating graphical quality based on how demanding it is on the hardware, rather than on how it actually looks. There is nothing "poor" about U4's graphics
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StXRi5zPPjk
nier automata if it lives up to these trailers will be the best looking game.
>>342965706
>Graphics were impressive and I had no framerate issues.
Yes, and they accomplished that by rendering it at the resolution of a postage stamp, and still only accomplished 30fps with dips.
>>342965845
Guys, lay off the Uncharted kids. This is the first time they've seen post 2007 graphics. Let them have their fun.
Killzone Shadow Fall used real time ray tracing for water
>>342965505
Witcher 3 does have mocap though.
>>342965845
This house looks fucking awful.
Not the grafix but the actual house.
Fuck people who'd live in shit like that
Art style > graphics
>>342965905
So? The game still had incredible graphics, even if the framerate and resolution weren't at peak levels. 30fps isn't ideal but in a casual game like Batman games it isn't important to have super accuracy .

Why does this thread even exist? Everyone knows Uncharted 4 BTFO of everything else this gen graphics wise.
>>342966074

I'm assuming the lighting is baked directly onto the textures.
>>342964417
>>342964234
Huh, thanks for the info. Shame I'll probably never play that.
>>342965767
All done by the The Division which does them better since it's using SMAA instead of TAA along with real time GI and Ambient Occlusion. U4's character models are just on par with your average Ubi-Soft game. Nowhere near CDPR's
>VCRT

It's not just the wet road, the tech all round is god like. Witcher 3 can't compete, the civilians for example are overglorified props and the world as a whole feels completely static outside of the wobbly trees.
It's like Far Cry 4.

>>342966613

The facial animations are worse than last gen games like Red Dead Redemption and Far Cry 3.
It's embarrassing at times and almost reaches Bioware levels.

Which game are you talking about? I feel the city in Novigrad's much more alive than in GTAV.
All the pedestrians in GTAV just walk around aimlessly.
>>342957740
Arma has incredible detail in textures and ballistics, and a lot of cool stuff in how much is rendered at once, but it has absolutely godawful animations. Vaulting over obstacles, opening doors and climbing ladders still feels clunky as hell and almost every context option in the scroll wheel is a chore to do.
Though this is more of something of a problem in all of Arma as a series, at least Arma III has much better movement.
I'd say ACU

>>342966727
The animals in GTAV are just pedestrian with animal models.
Also there are no patroling police at all which really breaks immersion since they just spawn like 100 yards down the road
>>342966134
doesn't even look that great. I mean the environment looks awesome, it has high-res textures and big polycount and reedus' model just looks bad in comparison. It's the same issue with Mankind Divided in my opinion, character models look very bright, blurry and just need higher polycount. It seriously bothers me how characters stand out in ultrarealistic environments in current-gen games
>>342966549
Uncharted 4 doesn't have GI or AO. Also point lighting over a character using a torch/flame has been done since PS1and the textures in the background and on the torch wouldn't look out of place on the PS2
>>342961220
That's like saying "Now remove any graphical enhancing techniques, turn down the resolution, run it on an intel card, and see how shit it looks. It looks like shit now. Point proven."

Witcher 3 obviously, there's almost zero interaction with them and what you "feel" is subjective, i'm talking observable traits in that the Civilians in GTA V actively respond to your actions, GTA IV even moreso.
>All the pedestrians in GTAV just walk around aimlessly.
They commit crimes, go into strip clubs, the bums are sitting around aimlessly and even attempt to mug you. In Witcher 3 they walk around aimlessly as well or perform some scripted action 24/7.

Witcher 3 pedestrians go eat at 12PM, and have other daily routines beside going to sleep and walking around. They go to the local Inn, main square, and the "shady" individuals actually walk on the outside walls walking on a lone path to caves/hidden cellars.
The pedestrians also have dialogue that changes the way they react to you depending on your choices in side quests and the main quest. you literally haven't played the game.

What matters is are they going to make the best looking game yet with cp77, we're already seen w3 its old news.
There might be lack of skill in cdpr compared to rockstar or other western devs that focus on making photorealistic modern games.

That's all any peds do in any game.
Not him but GTA V and Rockstar in general don't mess around with the budgets they have.
Companies like Bethesda just obviously aren't trying by comparison, Ubisoft can't even compete.
But Witcher 3 has a LOT of fucking character and has a more interesting gameworld for it, even if technology is not even comparable. Rockstar is simply capable of much more financially.
Hopefully Cyberpunk will see RedEngine to a level that it can compete with RAGE, because I think CDPR makes something a bit more beautiful and inspired.
>>342967280

They are static props with zero interaction too them, it's embarrassing by current gen standards.

The devs literally had to write "animals" and "pedestrian" tags into the fields for that to work. So its not like "its not intended" more like "we were lazy, not thinking, and don't care"
>there are no patroling cops anywhere in the game
>Nigger, you can literally see cops chasing other criminals in the game
No you can't you either see those cops because you just got done evading them and they're looking for a place to drive off and despawn and you're following them preventing them from doing that

photo mode is apart of the base game.
>>342966353
real time GI isn't inherently better than baked GI you mouthbreather. With baked GI the devs can hand-craft the lighting to perfectly fit the scene, making it look as good as possible. You only need real-time GI for when you have shit like a day/night cycle. For a light source like the sun, you could produce the same or better looking lighting effect from baked GI over what you could with realtime GI, and have it use 10 times less hardware resources at the same time

But at least sonyggers have a point with uc4 and order because they are close to photorealistic and this also applies to AC Unity and the division, but certainly not to Witcher 3 and especially not applicable to W3 character models.

I said they didn't patrol and they don't, there aren't any pedestrian cops either and I know there are cops walking the streets in LA. There are more cops than GTAV even makes it out but for all intents and purposes there aren't any patroling cops at all.

I'd say ARMA 3 and Witcher 3 solely because of scale. They may not have the best looking textures but when things work right, like a massive night time firefight with burning tanks lighting up the skyline, even without mods it's absolutely amazing. Battlefront looks very nice and probably does have the best graphics in terms of just how it looks, but it's also very controlled and small in scale. Uncharted 4 even more so. What it wants to do well it does well, but go off the beaten path and it becomes obvious where they cut corners.
>>342966816
Just like FF13
I love how Sony fans complain that PC players nitpick every picture they post. Then as soon as a PC fan posts something it gets nitpicked to fuck.

>>342968627
AC Unity, Far Cry 4, GTA V look better than both of those games on top of being open world.
>>342968578
You could always...play the game and see for yourself
>>342968042
Get some reading comprehension, I was talking about Rockstar.
On the other hand, AC Unity is like the size of Novigrad. Pretty easy to pack high res assets into something that small if thats all you develop.
Hell, high school students are making better looking games than Ubisoft is if that's the only metric we're working with. W3 is so much bigger than Unity that its not even comparable. Far Cry 4 would make much more sense.

If because of scale then Unity wins.
You can try fanboying and argue but Unity does bigger numbers with better graphics and with higher framerate.
But please feel free to show me Arma3 or Witcher 3 gameplay with 300 AI on screen keeping at least 30fps and be in a highly detailed city.
Both games would shit themselves and they dont even look as good as Unity.

Get off the "PEE CEE" and go back to your "babby machine" you fucking moron.

Final Fantasy has had the best graphics in each generation it's been on.
The game quality sure has dropped, but the visuals are still top tier.

You answered your own question right there
As another anon pointed out. Paris in Unity is about the same size as 2 Novigrads put together. And it cuts corners when you're on the ground since you're weaving between alleyways and uses prebaked lighting for indoor areas. I'll admit it looks nice when you're high up on a ledge overlooking a crowd, but you're an idiot if you think that's 300 separate AI doing their own thing.
Show me where Unity maintains 60fps while having multiple operators operating operationally with tanks and jets and shit across a 12x12km map

>>342970003
The charater and enemy models looks really good, and the ligting is pretty good, but sometimes it looks pretty bad, esepcialy when there's not many shadows. It just looks too flat, probably because the engine was never really intendet for an open world game

They aren't, 4k is for movies only.
They just know people are retarded enough to buy something that is probably of no use to them. I bet not even .5% of the people who buy it will actually have 4k resolution TVs or monitor.
And for those that do, they'll probably be sitting too far from it to even notice any difference. 4k res TV is a meme.
It's enough to want a high refresh rate that you just might experience a better viewing experience with it.
4k on PS4 is a marketing gimmick. You can get a 4k resolution movie on Bluray.
>>342970045

What i said stands.
Arma 3 looks worse and cant handle 300 AI on screen.
You are literally comparing a few AI to hundreds.
>12x12km map
this looks worse and its is completely rendered you retard
Difference is you can get 60fps or even 120fps with a high end config on Untiy while having hundreds of AI with graphics thats best in a open world game currently.
Meanwhile Arma shits itself with way less detail and less numbers, let alone joining an MP server where the game shits itself regardless of your settings.

Unmodded Crysis doesn't look good though. It has nice phyiscs, that's about it
>>342971593
I've got a 980, from what I can remember from a few months ago it ran pretty much the same at 1440p.
At 4k it hitches down to 40fps in a lot of areas, especially with the ReShade I was using.

Many games without post proccessing looks like shit.
Hahaha.
>>342961891
I have a real problem with how over saturated the colors are in that game. It's not that it's too colorful, it's that the colors just run into each other too much and makes any given screen shot look like an absolute mess.
>>342971809
It took almost 10 years before Crysis "doesn't look good though".
>>342971689
Lots of things within Ac series on their own are great, but put together produces a mediocre game.
Imagine black flag game that wasnt tied to AC tropes? oh well.
This thread proved that the better the grafics are the shittier the game is.

God dammit anon. You're making me want to play AC:U again. Fucking asshole. My dick can only get so erect.

There are actual TECHNOLOGIES deep within in AC games, unfortunately yeah, if only AC wasn't so shit.
Like how Inverse Kinetics system on AC games past 3 are so advance so it's animate incredibly well when parkouring.
>>342972350
>Lowest graphics
Nice try.
>>342959842
As much as Ubisoft is a shit company, damn do the people who work on the AC games put in a fuckton of effort on the buildings. Some of the details are just outright impressive.
Such a shame it's all in service of nothing really, since Unity was not only a shit game but ran like crap.
>>342957158
Witcher 3 on ultra on a high end gaming PC is the only answer.
>>342972614
Still looks better than any game released from 2012-present.
>>342965356
Ambient Occlusion. NEVER EVER SONYGGER.
>>342963837
>>342964906
It does look pretty damn good. The animation is top notch too. As far as reboots go, I'm pretty happy with it and I have a feeling the next game will be even better because it does't have to be bogged down by the story of a shitty movie.
It's just a damn shame it's 30fps. I wish Insomniac could develop games for PC so they didn't have to make the compromise between graphics and framerate. Because even though they prioritized graphics, they certainly didn't half ass it.
>>342968042
Pic unrelated, right?
I know it's edited, but this pic is still the one that amazes me the most when talking about graphics.
No competition
>>342968928
But has a very low quality AO which isn't on everytime, don't let people lie to you.
In madagascar scene SSAO is disabled and here you have screenshots. In interiors like Nathan house, the light and AO is baked, is not realtime AO.
Just in some times there's SSAO and full realtime GI
All these people trying to show how pretty their linear, scripted, pre baked u4 is. Sure it looks neat, but the game is small set pieces that are easy to control and make it look like real life, bring up a good looking game that was actually hard to make and not a one-time-play-through type shit game that everyone forgets about in a month of release because it's only redeemable trait is how good its rooms look
>>342973225
holy shit that photorealism, cant wait to play it on my 2k euro pc at 144hz
>>342972489
That's what I'm saying. There's an amazing amount of work done in the AC games and it's all for nothing since they had to shit out a sequel every year. They rushed out a game that barely held together for an audience that was already bored of it before release.
That, and the mass downvoting of the new Call of Duty trailer makes me hopeful that even normies are getting tired of their $60 games getting replaced and abandoned shortly after release.

>Lighting is dynamically generated by the engine
And it's poorly generated. Skyrim does the same thing.
There is zero GI and volumetric clouds are placed only at certain areas.
It's shit tier, worse than some nearly 10 year old games graphically.
>>342959914
>Unity has universally baked lighting indoors
and outdoors
>>342973404
No wonder Uncharted fans just wait until it zooms right up into Drakes face during a cutscene so you can see the sweat rolling down the pores of his face because that's the only thing they decided to work on.
Looks like shit.
>>342973726
that isn't baked, that's called precomputed lighting.
>>342968928
>also you conveniently ignore that the game has some of the best LOD management of any game ever
is that why it looks like a ps2 game?
What will be the best looking game released in 2017?
>>342973914
Regardless, it looks like total shit and completely kills immersion.
>>342974585
We don't even know what's coming out in 2017. I bet a Star Wars game will look the best though.
>>342974497
>low quality capture of 2nd pic
Its the exact same fucking shot. Except the latter has better lighting.
>>342974585
cp77 will be best looking game of 2018
or 2019 who the fuck knows how large its gonna be + multiplayer
>>342960040
>The lighting in TW3 is great. It's one of the few games where lighting interacts with foliage realistically.
Are you drunk bro? The foliage being unlit was one of the main complaints about the graphics.
>>342959806
Unity has other graphical things on top though and the lighting + architecture does look better than Uncharted. Pretty much at all times.
>>342957740
looks like a ps2 game in that screenshot
Call of duty best graphics.
>>342968928
>No signs of GI or AO even in the screenshot they use.
>Claims it has better crowd management AI than Hitman when UC4's is scripted and has a limited set of interactions as the player cannot do much (like pull a gun to get them to run) while Hitman's is emergent and has a number of reactions to player behavior
>Poor LOD shown in screenshots is the "Best ever"
That article was written by a person who barely has a clue what they are talking about and neither do you
Look at this shot. There's no GI or AO at all. Lighting is all static point based on GI values. Baked lighting.
Battlefront, but I'm going to go ahead and say everything in this thread looks dreadful.
Horrible lighting, shit post processing, blurs and blooms etc.
>>342964761
Same reason as it has been for ten fucking years.
Shitty use of normal maps.
The style and art direction is ultimately what's important.
There are tons of games that are technically technically impressive, yet look like shit in comparison to games from generations ago.
>>342974497
>runing
>>342975568
Nintendo, go home, you're drunk already.

>>342975568
This is true. I wish more games used cel-shading and had hand-drawn textures.
Cel-shading is such an unexplored area of gaming too, there's so many different styles of it you can use and some of them are insanely cool.
>>342970574
>>342970942
>Remembered that Forza Horizon 3 is coming to the PC
I have never been so turned on by the possibility of a non-H video game before
You had a good reign and a good rain, Driveclub. But it's time to move over now.
>>342975568
Metro 2033 STILL beats the pants off just about everything, especially "B-but muh artstyle" games.
Can we count non-realism games under best graphics? Revelator is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played, and those models are all 3D too.
You have to see it in motion to appreciate

I think one of the greatest tragedies of gaming is the fact that Okami sold so poorly
>>342973634
>>342973634
>>342973634
Fucking THIS
>>342975832
Metro has a good art direction though.
>>342973404
>Just in some times there's SSAO and full realtime GI
There's no realtime GI. They rendered in GI during dev and then used static light points to create a baked lighting system to replacate it. A common technique to cull performance. It just will never be as good as the real thing.
>>342960205
I got it on PS4 recently during the $12 sale and it's kinda mindblowing how good it looks for an Unreal 3 game.
Then again, this was Unreal 3 so I guess it shouldn't be that much of a shock. PS3 and 360 were just woefully underpowered for Unreal 3. Even Gears of War and UT2007 had to be downgraded extensively at the beginning of the generation.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UONbgHju9xA
>>342975921
That's a PS2 game. Games like Ni No Kuni, Radiata Stories, Kingdom Hearts, etc all look great and will forever look great thanks to the inspired art design.
Crysis and whatever photorealistic games have and will continue to age.
>>342957158
>if you didn't follow the rules, you are a massive faggot cunt and I hate you and hope your dog dies of cancer
What a newfag.

>>342976060
AND they have MODERN tech for graphics, not lazy cell shading, and the results are something worlds better and more immersive than Cell-shading could ever hope to touch.
Cell-shading is basically the "graphics for dummies" of the tech world:
Don't want to bother with a lot of complicated-sounding graphics features? Cell-Shading is for you!
Have to run your game on shitty hardware? Cell-Shading is for you!
>>342976382
Cel-shading is just a type of shading, it's no different than any other kind of shading except that more attention is paid to it than your cut of the mill shading because there's an infinite amount of styles you can go for. Opposed to "realistic or basic diffuse.
You fucking retard. You can't even spell the term.
>>342976382
You forgot:
Want your game to look like it's from 2006 upon release? Cell-Shading is for you!
>>342976382
I never said anything about cell shading. I just said that style and art direction is really what's important. And it is.
>>342975832
Metro looks great for its age but aside from its liberal use of volumetric lighting it doesn't really do anything that impressive. It also doesn't have radiosity / light-bounce so it's lighting is actually not nearly as advanced as a lot of people claim.
Can't wait to see what the dev does with their next game though.
>>342976382
Could you point on the doll where the cell-shading touched you?
>>342976858
>Can't wait to see what the dev does with their next game though.
Well at least we can rest easy knowing it definitely WON'T be cel shaded as 4A games are NOT lazy.
>>342976858
>Can't wait to see what the dev does with their next game though.
After LL and Redux? Possibly Ubisoft-tier open world casual trash. I'm sorry but man's gotta eat, games like Stalker is very niche.
>>342976938
It touched me years and years ago, right after Zelda WW, JSRF and Okami made me sick of the style.
>>342977039
I meant on a technical level, I agree last light was not very good.
The dev though has a pretty good handle on rendering tech and even the PS4/Xbone ports are impressive for a small studio.
>>342977039
>games like Stalker is very niche.
Fuck Okami not selling, THIS is the real tragedy here.
>>342977129
>Zelda WW, JSRF and Okami
So it's like 3 from hundreds of games
The vanishing of ethan carter.
>>342977298
Those are just the ones I played, there were countless other on PS2
>>342976678
>Want your game to look like it's from 2006 upon release?
Ni No Kuni, Naruto Ninja Storm, and Gravity Rush. Probably more.
All look better than 2006 games.
>>342977013
Cel-shading isn't lazy and Metro with it could look better.
>>342977224
>I meant on a technical level
Even on the technical level it's consolized simply because PS4 couldn't handled it. I hope they made another technically impressive game like the original 2033 but after LL, Redux, and on top of those, the Deep Silver contract, it's simply almost hopeless.
But what do I know, they're slavs. They found a way.
>>342977421
I can think like SMT3 and DDS and those are not similar as JSR for example
>>342977013
>lazy
Is 2D art lazy?
Is anime automatically shit in comparison to the American CGI cartoons?
You have as much freedom with cel-shading as with anything else. More than with lots of techniques even.
If the product ends up being shit it's because of shit artists. Nothing else.
>>342972198
You mean literally hundreds of thousands of games? PC has a bigger library than all of the consoles combined.
>>342977537
They could have done better on PS4 if they were like every other developer and just targeted 30fps. It also came out really early in the system's life and was a low-budget port.
The Xbox One version wasn't even 1080p though, I think approximately 900p.
>>342972829
I agree. Although I do wish they'd go back to the previous cannon.
>>342977845
Same. But what can you do when Sony's paying your bills?
>>342977662
There's an almost inifite amount of freedom with cel-shading and then you can put it other art-inspired shaders like hatching(valkyria chronicles) or line-edges or whatever the fuck else.
>>342972728
Keep telling yerself dat maet:^)
>>342971769
How is it so high definition? You can zoom in as much as you want and it will never look bad. You can even see the stretch marks if you zoom in enough. I've never seen anything like this in a video game in my lifetime. The texture, polygon and lighting work is top tier.
>>342976382
Fuck you.
>>342978880
The fact that it's UE3 is even more impressive
>>342962113
>PS4 Arkham Knight has full real time GI
Source
But everthing you said is right, just don't try to cherry pick The Witcher 3 because that game looks extremely bad 90% of the time
